People Who Boast

[naomi24]

Have you ever met anyone who boasted about their life – and you subsequently discovered they were trying to pull the wool over your eyes? We met a couple on holiday once…. she was ‘in fashion’ she told us loftily - and he was ‘in furniture’. It turned out she worked in a dress shop and he drove a removals van. Oops! :o)

[Sqad]

LOL...she worked on the hardware counter in Woolworths in Wolverhampton....BUT........ a real looker.

[spathiphyllum]

"I'm guessing she wasn't Brain of Britain, sqad. ;o)"


..........

"Butlins Skegness"...

[Sqad]

It doesn't sound as though it was a 'Battle of Britain' to bed her once she learned of your heroics in a Gloster Meteor either. :-)

[Calicogirl]

Ewwww that's about like playing hide the sausage with someone because of the type of car they drive... no future there, any mug knows that :/

[Sqad]

I know! I know! retro......LOL

I actually have to dumb down what I do, otherwise people make judgements.

[banker_frank]

I don't think at 18 many males are looking for their soul mate

[Calicogirl]

That's interesting Zacs, there is a sort of inverted snobbery if people legitimately have something or do something which is unusual or more expensive than average. I remember Orangerygate on here really clearly.

[spathiphyllum]

I know where i'd hide the sausage.

"I know where i'd hide the sausage."

In the grass collector of the lawnmower? Be as well used for something.

[Mamyalynne]

Never forget how many sausages have been there before you.

[spathiphyllum]

No, i'd hide it where i always do... With the tip in my sock.

Spot on, there were two ABers who should remain nameless Ummmm and Anneasquith who would always call my anecdotes as fantasy, so like you, I had to play them down...LOL

[Zacs-Master]

I'm not sure you're talking about your career there, Sqad. Possibly somthing which might have ended your career in these 'enlightened times' but not the job itself ;-)

It is just as much about the fantasy as it is the reality, in many situations Cal.

[LadyCG]

I remember orangerygate too. I remember many of the deeply unpleasant comments.
