Faux pas of the weekend - no 2.

[Bbbananas]

I had just got back from a precariously tricky journey from Lincoln in the dark. Making my sarnies for the next day, a face appeared at the back door. It knocked. I screamed. It said "It's only John from next door..." He'd brought a parcel for me his missus had took in from postie. Red-faced, I apologised for scaring him - I said "I'm not used to people coming in my back entrance." He left, laughing, but red-faced.

Sunday evening, another neighbour, let's call him Al, shouted out to me that he was going to do some outdoor drilling. I hadn't seen him, so him shouting my name made me jump. He apologised - I answered "It's ok - at least you didn't make me scream like John did the other night........."

Isn't that 2 AND 3? LOL

We used to have a couple of black cats when i was younger. My mum walked in to the house with the shopping one day and one of the cats had made a mess on the floor... My mum announced at the top of her voice (which is pretty loud when she's speaking naturally) 'you effing black bar stewards'.... My sister was mortified.

[Bbbananas]

No - that's a sort of combined follow-up one. No 3 comes next.....

Now Al thinks I'm carrying on with John. Which he won't like - cos Al is a Swinger & I have refused to participate. Oh, the intruigue, the gossip, the fun of it all ;-)

[Count-A-Strong]

Salla, It must be like living in a 'Confessions of a......' film round your way.

[Barmaid]

lmao. Al might think that was a "come on". You are going to get yourself a reputation!!!!!

[Bbbananas]

And around your way too barmaid - I was in the Moorhen on Friday afternoon, waiting for the BF to arrive. There was a works do - an ageing rock-star-ish person with long grey straggly hair, leather jacket & man boobs sauntered up to me at the bar and said "Oi love, brace yourself.... I hope you've got some vaseline cos you & me are going to have a rough passage tonight...."
What the hell do you say to that? And in Hampton? Boston I would expect it.... but I thought Hampton was posh!!!!

(I told him I only used KY). ;-)

[mccfluff]

loving it, where' no 3?

[Barmaid]

lol - It's on the less salubrious side of Hampton. I've pulled in there too just by standing there so it must be bad. Trouble is, it's the only place within walking distance so it's there or nowhere!

Having said that, you can go in there on your own so it can't be bad.

[ttfn]

salls I would have told him to weigh anchor - with only a slight abreviation

[Bbbananas]

I was too shocked ttfn. I didnt want to laugh in case he mistook that for encouragement or assent. Luckily he sauntered off, swaggering (or staggering) with all his workmates in hysterics - maybe he'd been trying that line on loads of people. I hope for his sake he didn't try it out on a fella..... ;-)

[ttfn]

You - you? - were shocked salla? That'll teach you to leave home sober !

[Barmaid]

It was probably the "one in ten" system. 9 people will slap him or be horrified, but one might say "yes"!!!!

Actually, if you've ever been in the MH on a Saturday night, you'd know that 1 in 5 is more likely.

[Bbbananas]

I shall go in there again..... won't let a little thing like that put me off!!!!!!

[Invictas]

I think there has been an outbreak of foot in mouth disease in your area?
Just how many camels could your b/f get for you in Syria?

[Bbbananas]

Ha! As many as he possibly can.....!
