Wow, jim my dream date nice blue eyes do it for me.

The rhc has blue eyes.

[GoatGal]

Jim... are you sure you're not my brother from another mother?

(Except the "no rhythm" thing. That definitely sets us apart!)

--(G)GGG

[jim0987]

Id like to pretend i do have rhythm but i really dont - i get confused by exactly which beat it is im suppose to pay attention to and end up going round in a kind of deranged circle before doing something that makes my S giggle his head off.

[GoatGal]

There's an app for that.


And "Sausage Snob"? Do tell!

Oh--- I just got #69!

[jim0987]

theres an app for going in a deranged circle??? they really will make anything.

Sausage snob - A full english breakfast is one of the worlds finest meals but the sausages have to be an appropriate quality,with a decent amount of pork. Rubbish sausage = rubbish breakfast (and yes i'm aware how that just sounds like a massive euphemism)

its my attitude to food in general, i like stuff that is what its supposed to be. Id rather have no ice cream than poor quality ice cream. But equally junk food is great because it is what it is - delicious unnutritious junk. I wont eat a 'meat curry' because i take the view that if your not willing to specify then i dont want to eat it.


and yes

[Ggrass]

69 looks of into the distant past wistfully! Lol

I wish, some poor blokes gunna have a very tough time with me if I don't break him, it's beeeeeeeeeen a veeeeeeeeeery long time.
