Well in a whooshed thread you said I would always be Maid Marion to you, and we met in Liverpool a few years ago, and I love singing ferry 'cross the Mersey with Stel's OH, and then there's Dr Who threads ..... :-)

Pack yourself up and mail yourself immediately -- I will adopt you sight unseen!

All the red squirrels have been driven from Ontario by the blacks and greys, who are cute as buttons and aggressively friendly (as they climb the wall of my house to my office window for their handouts, and move into the eaves and fight all night ...), but I miss the reds of my childhood in Victoria Park in London Ont ...


If I may be excused now, I'm off to go hang out on a streetcorner with my GR clique and trip newbies and steal their lunch money as they skulk by.

I don't know Joy....who are you? , my goodness, there's a glut of Joys on here ;)

I did know a Marion once but I haven't seen her for a while ;)

Do you think we should get out the Duran Duran posters and decorate this thread a bit? ;)

Is there a thread you always post on or group of people who you hang about with?

Twice this week I've been accused of being part of a clique/group of friends - the irony is that I didn't know most of them as I don't really hang around tips. I must have a chatty vibe after hanging round here to many years lol

It made me think, I'm not really part of any group on here these days. Don't get me wrong I do chat to people on here but I don't add to regular threads (apart from Doctor Who)

The thing is I don't really add to longstanding threads, they genuinely scare me. I feel as though I leave for a day and have lost track of who everyone is and what has happened. I prefer short threads or maybe a longish debate.

Sometimes people don't even answer my threads I'm so popular lol (this could be one ;) )

However, despite this I was wondering whether anyone would pity on a poor red Squirrel and adopt me? (Don't expect me to add to long threads though)

My memory is dreadful and I'm also awful with names, you'd have to keep reminding me who you are or used to be lol and how I know you. And don't expect me to answer on threads, i forget I post on them.

I know it's not original, Doodles has done something like this so I thought it could work for me too. I'm not expecting such success though :)

(actually i did think of this before she posted hers but forgot to post it lol)
