  • ^ That raises a few questions - how/why/where/etc.?

    Yes though, jokes about serial killers can be hit and miss at the best of times :/

  • So my brother went on a random stag do in Gloucester on sat night.

    You're basically lucky nobody was killed. It's a dark and forgotten place and I don't want to talk about it...

  • ^What he said.
    They could have gone anywhere in the world, and someone chose Gloucester?

  • i think you'll find the cathedral is quite superb, the 70's architecture of the debenhams has world heritage status and standing on westgate looking east you couldn't find another vista as beautiful

    why would you go anywhere else

  • This is more of an awkward situation really. Our neighbour is disabled so the council created a large disabled parking bay outside her house. Fine, obviously her car is a tremendous help to her mobility...

    Fine, that is, until she recently started parking her car so badly that she's repeatedly bumped and scratched my mum's car and almost always leaves about a 2 metre space behind whilst going over her bay's line by about 0.5-1 metre, so effectively in front of our house and making it almost impossible for mum to get out or park. It's become so bad even other neighbours have commented. We hoped she'd have it pointed out to her by a carer, or take the hint when mum placed a cardboard box in front of her car to protect it, but no.

    No one wants to have conflict with neighbours but it seems even worse to have to address the issue with someone who is disabled, recently widowed, mother to a young child, often needs a hand with little random things, plus who we really like and have the deepest respect and admiration for.

    I'm usually the one who comes straight out with it and tackles these things head on (notes through doors seems like a bit of a passive aggressive measure to me) but I have just convinced mum to go and have a word herself...hopefully there'll be no fallout!

    tl;dr - cars are evil, bikes are good.

  • mashton on right.

    I have just found this, 5 years late!

  • ...reminds me of that time that I almost fell asleep and started brabbling while performing cunnilingus, only to be awoken by her "ehh?!"

    To be fair though, she had puked lukewarm tea on me bits while engaging in oral intercourse on me 10minutes prior so we were kinda even.

    needless to say, we decided that no good was to come of this and just went to sleep.

    ...never spoke to her again

  • Oh god, forgot I committed that to record, cheers for the reminder.

  • What a wonderful thread. Well worth a revive.

  • ^ uhhh... Horrid!

    Great thread though, Lol'd a few times

  • By which time you've aged too much to resemble the photo. Never mind.

  • Still shudder sometimes when I think about when I was 10 and forgot to put my swimming pants on before walking out into the pool area.

  • Oh no!

  • I lecture at an art school and we were launching the BA graduation show last night. Lots of hugs and congratulations for the students and a sea of alumni glad to see us all. A guy in my peripheral vision opened his arms for a hug so I duly obliged thinking someone I knew was coming to say hi... he was greeting the dude behind me. I think I scared the crap out of him.

  • Dredge. Am on skiing holiday. Was just stopped and had a hug forced upon me by a woman at our hotel in Norway. Turned out to be what I still, well into my forties, think of with horror as the 'loony girlfriend' I had when I was 16 or 17. Long story short she didn't take the breakup well after our short relationship. Stalked me, called my parents and my mates and cried &/or yelled at them etc. Ok we were young and who cares. But today when she ambushed me she also introduced her husband, who had the same name as me, as "my new xxxx". I mumbled a few pleasantries, told them the slopes were nice today and backed off.

    I think it was pretty awkward.

  • Always lean into the awkwardness.

  • Same name....now that makes me think 'if I can't have you I have someone the same name as you, as that is close enough'

  • Stalker xGF from 25ish years ago is at the same hotel in Norway and recognises you.

    She's still stalking you

  • Norway is as good a place as any to get murdered.

  • I did find myself looking over my shoulder just now...

  • I stand by my comment.

  • Holiday sex. Do it.
