He say's them geordie's are a dodgy lot :shock:

Well depending on where abouts in South Tyneside he is, he might be a Sanddancer rather than a Geordie.
Hi and :welcome: from somebody who's probably just down the road from you AGC.

hmmm
not that i like this but....red dwarf was bloody good .....
thats twice ive agreed with you today ali
im goin soft...maybe its a 40 thing.....

I love red dwarf have all the DVD that are out to date, and down loaded everything i could find on the net, all the in takes, out takes and fook ups lol as well as the can't smeg wont smeg stuff etc, get the pop corn i'll dim the lights we can have a red dwarf night
I tried to do a Red Dwarf marathon session once, back when all of the series plus the out takes came to about 24 hours.
Didn't make it, I was drinking whisky and passed out halfway through season three. :(
Certainly the first five or six series were great, and there were odd moments in the last couple that I found hilarious (I'd always thought that Mac MacDonald was under-used as the ship's captain, so his reappearance was welcome. The less said about the disappearance of Claire Grogan as Kochanski the better though. :( )

no sorry i think its crap

Not seen it, but I've downloaded "League of Extrordinary Gentlemen". Is that anything to do with it?
If you're going to talk about the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen then at least have the decency to mention the Alan Moore graphic novels rather than the rancid sludge that passes for the film. Some parts of the first one had me in stitches (they find the invisible man hiding out in a girl's boarding school run by a dominatrix).

where have you been living for the past 15 years ffs

Well said NN.
I remember going to see Green Day at the Reading Festival, I think that was back in August 1995 and they'd released a couple of albums by then (Dookie was the latest one, IIRC).

you must really love snakes NN lol.....not a snake for beginners but once every blue mono some 1 gets 1 thats willing to look after them and not get rid once they get to 4 feet lol...
it must of been well looked after to get to that size and is only 3.5 feet short of the captivity record i would guess you had it out of its vivarium most of the time and they love a swim.....
i once came home pissed and took out my burmese pair and fell asleep ..i woke up in the morning ..the male was asleep over my face and the larger female was draped over my legs and coiled up in fornt of me :)
walked downstars (much to mums dismay) wearing the male as a turban :)

As a child i used to live with my uncle for many years and he used to bread them, he had loads, not sure on numbers as i was only young, they used to have the run of the house mostly so when i moved in with Paul and he asked me one year what i wanted for my birthday,,,well you can guess the rest :twisted: had a few funny times tho like the time she ate next doors dog :shock: honest ask Paul lol was a young corgi, owner was NOT inpressed and the time we had to get transco to out to take out the fire....well you can guess why we had to get rid tho, at the time we was living in a council house in Mansfield and they bought out a new rule that says no snakes over 2 ft was alloweed in their homes :? after many trips to the CAB and many fights trying to keep her she had to go as they said we was in breach of our tenancy and could be evicted, and having kids putting a roof over their head came first She ended up going to a breeding programm in Twycross zoo (is that spelt right? :lol: ) which was good cause i knew she had a good home and we got free life time passes so we can go see her whenever we like, so next time you go your prob be looking at my snake was a very sad day tho i cyed for days after as we had had her many years :( i still miss our bath times :shock:
You evidently got off lightly.
If my next door neighbour's boa constrictor (assuming they had one, which I don't believe they do) were to eat my cat, then I'd be 'round there after blood, and I wouldn't be too worried if it were the boa's or the neighbour's. evil

it wasn't a boa constrictor :lol:
but the dog was on our garden and as you have a responsability to keep your dogs under control at all time there was nothing they could do about it, they did call the police and their reply was...why was your dog running lose? fair question, if you let your dog run free it can just as easily get run over, does that make it the car owners fault cause there dogs running free all over? no accidents happen, just so happenen this one chose to come on my garden while the snake was out, people who have dogs should walk them on leads not just open the door and thro them out and thats just what they was told by the police and R.S.P.C.A, my animal was on my yard
Fair enough, if they were stupid enough to let a corgi wander into your garden then I suppose it deserves it's fate to some extent. :twisted: (I have to admit, I've never liked dogs, and whilst I did feel a certain amount of sympathy for it, part of me was having a bit of a giggle. :lol: )

If they haven't at least emailed or PM'd you to say hello then it's definitely a bit forward. Personally I'd always ask, or let somebody know my details and let them add me if they want to.
Not having your MSN address publically accessable would be the easy way to avoid people like that, so taking it off was definitely a good move.

Hit the gym if you feel you need to improve your health and fitness. However, don't change for other people --- the people that matter will like you for YOU.

Wise words from Blue.
Some people will be attracted to your physique, some won't be interested, and a fair few will be far more interested in who you are rather than what you look like.
As for terminology, I'm not sure that BBM (Big Beautiful Man?) is really that good a description. Traditionally the male abbreviation is BHM (Big Handsome Man), but personally (and I know I'm not alone in this opinion) I like BSF (Big Strapping Fella), coined by our very own Darkfire.
Also, you don't necessarily need to hit the gym - if you're a big bloke you already use quite a bit of energy just moving yourself around (I know from experience), so just increasing your general levels of activity (go for a walk, redecorate the house, organise a whole weekend of frenzied shagging, etc) can have noticable effects. It's probably best coupled with a significant reduction in haggis suppers and pints of heavy (substitute your preferred choice of poisons). I tried something similar earlier this year so I'd look like less of a fat git on my wedding photos and lost two stone in three months. smile

Great idea .. a gardening tips thread .. I could do with some help as to why my hanging basket plants go yellow after a few weeks .. I water them every day.
DD

Have you tried some liquid feed on them....works wonders..!
I assume you can grow most things in your part of the world..?
CheekyChimp..... cool

Yep tried that ... just that I am good at killing things :evil2:
:upset:
DD
How much light are they getting?
What's the drainage in them like? If you're watering them every day and there's no way for excess water to escape then you could be drowning the roots.

:shock: :shock: I'm making stew today for the first time in well over a year! Must be the weather, proper comfort food

Yeah, I bought a slow cooker last winter, thinking it'd revolutionise my life to come home to slow cooked stew :P . But I used it once and it was all thin and watery and not that nice to be honest with you so now it's under my sink gathering fluff... :cry:
I am glad i am not the only person with a slow cooker in the cupboard gathering fluff.
And i thought it would transform me into a domestic goddess. confused

Ours doesn't get used as regularly as it might, but it still sees a reasonable amount of service.
You do need to adapt recipes somewhat for the slow cooker, I generally brown meat and soften onions in a frying pan to start with and either add the chopped root veg to that for a bit or par-boil it. Potatoes need to be pre-cooked, though tinned new potatoes work very well. To give the liquid a bit of body and flavour you can add a tin of chopped tomatoes or a tin of pureed chestnuts (very good with shin of beef and lots of carrots, parsnips and mushrooms).
I have also been known to add Bisto an hour or two before it's finished cooking. Not exactly haute cuisine, but very useful nontheless.

Fair enough, but you might want to be a little more careful - comments about knocking shops and working girls can be taken the wrong way very easily.
I will admit that moral scruples aside it would be by far the easiest way to experience FFM if you're a single bloke and don't already know some friendly bi women who might be interested.

From you're previous posts I'd guess Shell wrote this one, but it's not very clear, which is why it hasn't really attracted much attention.
Also, I'm not sure what your dreams involve, so have no real idea if I can help fulfil them. sad

After all, you might want some help with something really weird, like Morris dancing* bolt

If you're really serious about using the forums here to meet cool and interesting people to have fun with, then you're best bet is to join in on some of the threads in the cafe section and get yourself known. If you have a photo ad (which tend to be used as de facto profiles on the forums as well as adverts), then you can link to it from your forum signature - there's a sticky on how to do this in LMU. If you're not sure about how to proceed then PM Mal and ask him for a mentor to help you.
* Today I feel ill, so would only be able to help if your dreams included a big bloke with a cold and a bad back sitting in the corner, drinking tea, and whinging. :(

:dry: I actually really like gardening - love pottering about in the summer picking home-grown flowers and growing my own vegetables.........i even have a greenhouse :shock: ops:
that said, I tend to have little phases - and now the 'season' is over, i prob wont even go out there again til February! :roll
so, stuff that occupies my time (other than SH, and I'm here alot! ) .... i 'do' embroidery sometimes :shock:, ride horses, read crime books and study! That's it!
Oh, I forgot, shopping!! :D :D

I used to quite enjoy gardening, but since we moved from Brum all we have is a concrete yard sad

, so now I stick to growing pot plants indoors. smile

I read loads of stuff, but tend to avoid anything that could be described as 'literature', preferring crime, sci-fi, horror, and thrillers. I'm also weird enough that on occasion I read text books cover to cover, and not always for subjects I'm studying at the time :shock: .
I guess I wouldn't be alone on here as a player of roleplaying games, live action roleplaying, wargames, and strange boardgames (try if the weirdest you can think of is Monopoly or something mundane like that). I'm also a recovering first-person shoot-em-up addict, as I've realised that however much I like fragging people for hours on end, my tennis elbow doesn't agree with me. :cry:
I go sailing with Mrs. DP when I can (approx. once a year at the moment), and have lots of books on boat building, though I'm not sure when I'm going to have the time to get on and build my first boat (a 12' dinghy with a four-cornered spritsail).

Ok, just to put things into perspective, the ratio of single bi fems to couples looking for them is about the same as single fems to single blokes i.e. greatly in their favour, so they can afford to be choosy.
I've not seen your ad but you will need to put some effort into making it stand out. If you use the photo ads then you'll probably need to be proactive about replying to anyone you think might be compatible rather than waiting for them to come to you.
The most reliable way to meet people on here would be to become known on the forums or in the chatroom well enough to go to a munch or other social.

Sinatra's, My Way.

I prefer the Sex Pistols version myself. lol

If I had to pick only one song to be played at my funeral I'd probably choose Ripple by the Grateful Dead, preferably the cover by Jane's Addiction I've got on my hard disk at the moment. In the past, I've also thought about Pete Tosh (from the Wailers) performing Get Up, Stand Up solo with acoustic guitar.
For music to come into the service to, my sense of humour would allow nothing other than Pete Seeger's solo banjo interpretation of Beethoven's Ode to Joy (it has yodelling). smile

No, it stands for Minesweeper Consultant and Solitaire Expert.
Actually it's Microsoft Certified Service Engineer, I got halfway through one in NT4 before I decided that working with Windows made me feel dirty and Linux/BSD was much more fun.

Well I am really good at minesweeper, and it is a systems engineer ;) I not allowed to say nasty things about microsoft, is in the small print when you signup for the exam confused

Funny world but the only bits of my MCSE I use these days are TCP/IP troubleshooting cause I work with DB's and non microsoft application software in the enterprise now anyway biggrin

Morbious n blue, well said. Good to see things have settled down a little in cold light of day... Wonder when our new owners and techy friends will surface. On standby with the quiet room and dark glasses.
Oops, looks like Bill will be sending his goons 'round ASAP to repossess my MCP certificate and pin badge. lol

You'd be surprised at how much interest I've had from agencies when I admit to being certified on NT4 - I think it's a bit like COBOL, loads of places still use it, but most techies are quite happy to profess ignorance and leave it to somebody else (or are simply too young to have come across it).
Anyway, I'd better stop hijacking the really important announcement thread, it's not really fair.
