Yeurch. Stupid open-air Cardiff Central! I hope you brought a book, sir. I feel shame however that while you were freezing your arse off, I was enjoying beerage with bright-young-thing colleagues (including impossibly foxy Zooey Deschanel look-alike lass) in Prince of Wales.

Just realised that this post will not make you feel one iota better. Sorry.

Fair enough. Most if not merely all of my posts on anything serious and forum related, past or present, are carthartic splurges not meant to be picked up and discussed, so I can see your angle there. Have to admit I'm baffled by the bickering, but since I find all of you pretty interesting and very funny I'm not going anywhere, you're all too splendid. All of you.

Except Bafflore the invisible poster who only I can read. He's a jerk.

I don't know if anyone remembers my moaning about my trip to Cardiff being ruined by a bag thief a few weeks ago, but check this out:

The "young woman" referred to is, of course, my friend Marie. Fucking awesome, but it must have been a slow day at BBC News, eh?

That's most excellent.

Also, how bloody stupid is that guy?

YOG · **Posted:** Fri Nov 21, 2008 22:35

Very. He'd have been fine if he'd have just enjoyed the other contents of the bag (a digital camera being among the most expensive items), and surely he must have considered that someone would report the theft?

Of course, we did have the best policeman ever helping us out. He could never have suspected that.

This is ace news, hope your friend got all of her stuff back okay. Am very pleased that the robbing scally slag got sent down.

Yeah, someone spotted that and commented on it somewhere, I think you weren't around at the time though. Excellent to have it confirmed though, nice one!

Thanks for the beer, Kern.

Everyone else missed a mini BETEO meet.

it was much more low key than shunt it would seem

Kern · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 0:49

No pictures, therefore it never happened.

Of course, I then headed to FFMC on the off-chance that other people I know might be there. They weren't, but two girls I've known since secondary school were so we had a fun 'catch-up' session.

A laundry question:

Today will be very cold, but dry. Is it worth putting the washing out on the line, or will this just result in frozen underwear?

I wasn't the one moaning about not being able to drink all evening.

Shin · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 12:15

I didn't moan, not once! :DD

TREES ON A GODDAMN FUCKING TRAIN!

Ooooh, I think I may be still pissedy-ish

I'm feeling very happy today

Am I going to Scotland or is Joans? I've forgotten-and who has the tree?!

Mornin' all *tips hat* I woke up and forgot I had my hair cut, went to the loo, looked in the mirror whilst washing me hands and went 'AAAAAAAAH!' I thought someone had stolen it >.<

GJ-I was awake for you and Joans texts

haha and I saw where Ian lived-LOVE SHACK! :luv:

Also well done Klatr-glad that mofo was caught anyway

I think we should have a little thread with 'Mini BEEX meets!' on it and list who and where so people can join-unless they are priverate ones

Shin · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 12:36

oh holy hell I know what I was going to do! I'll text GJ over the picture I took last night and then she can pop it on here as I can't work my phone to do that as I am a moron. It's a penguin thing!

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 26076

Shin's signature reminded me of something.

Once, when I was at university, I was sitting on the bed with a friend, reading magazines and drinking wine like girls have a tendancy to do, when there was something in one of the magazines about stupid, funny 'sexy' gifts for christmas or Valentines day, or whatever it was, one of the sugestions being 'edible knickers'.

My friend asked 'edible? What can they be made of, though'? And for some reason I instantly replied with 'ham'.

Shin · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 12:42

Ham PANTS?! I think Anne Summers would bypass that one-they only has candy ones in there

What an ace thing to say, lol

SPAM pants! :DD

(has got the 'spam up' song in her head)

You sent me that last night while I was driving home, I can't do it either as I don't have the software on this PC. Sorry!

Yarrr. Looking forward to getting back, though it has been nice seeing my step-dad and sister whilst I have been here. Oh, and being able to do a bit of shopping.

without any size-related context, Shin's penguin thing looks like a feminine urinal with a hand basin built in. I'll let you figure that one out.

DavPaz · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 38656

is John Sargent Jo Brand's dad? They look the same, they sound the same. Are they related or what?

Watching Come Dancing with me mam. Great weekend so far!

Sorry I couldn't make it. I've spent most of the weekend asleep so far. Pretty much slept from 5:30pm on the Friday to 8am on the Saturday. Hopefully I'll be there next time

I am so cold that my feet and my hands have gone really blue, and I am shivering so bad :'(

I have had some soup, put on ALL of my jumpers and put the radiator on and I am still cold, so I am going to get into bed. I feel a poorly sparrow this evening

Did anyone watch that thing earlier, about Einstein? Doctor Who was in it (oh, you know what I mean), and it looked really good. Anyway, I taped it.

Here's a question. You win all the prizes on Bully's Prize Board, you are obviously shit hot at darts. Would you gamble?

Agent Starling · **Joined:** 8th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 1701

I can't believe they gambled all that! What a pair of lemons.

But the irony is that that they were obviously good players to get all the prizes, and the non darts player (who always throws first on the final game) scored well (61). The darts player tried to go for glory by hitting triple 20 to look clever and missed 3 times in a row.

He needed 40, something that most people could manage with ease blindfolded.
