Right it's Friday. I'm going over to Boothstown today to talk to my mate Jim.

Smorgs, are you feeling any better (in yourself)?. I know you're going through some stuff at the moment. Be of good cheer.

His motives are pure. He's training up an away team to come "home" and flog the Motherland. The bastard, ...

It might mean he's earned enough to frack around for a while. Good for him.

In today's LA Times...

... one reader, citing Beckham's politeness, reckons he could run for mayor in five years' time.

They do such in California, n'est-ce pas? :wink:

Washed up as a footballer, probably. But I would consider it for a million dollars a week.

Please can I moan?

I've not done it for ages...

AND I've been well behaved during the Cricket/Football/Sport musings.

I have a Real Madrid shirt signed by David, (who has a house in Sawbridgeworth near here) and Raul Figo Carlos and somebody else all yours for $1000 Tico.

Or a couple of quid if you promise to auction it for charity.

I hate my job.
My Dad is dying
I'm not feeling 100%
They withdrew the flat and I about to be made homeless
I'm skint
I've been invited to a party and I've got nothing to wear
My freeview box has died
I've left my book at work, and I was enkoying it and looking forward to reading it.
I'm on a diet

My life is very gloomy at the moment. I need a night away in a hotel being pampered and adored... any offers?

Got me own transport?

Dutch, whats's the busfare to Oz?

I promise in return to **** and **** like you've never been ****** and **** and ****. And then I'll brew.

Howzat!

I'm so sorry Smorgs.

I've spent the last 10 minutes trying to think of something suitable to say...

but there are times when one cant say anything. Here's a big hug.

Hang on and dont forget you are and always will be Smorgshious.

I don't know how to answer this without sounding crass or flippant, Sarah.

You're going through some real sh*tty stuff at present, and I just hope that things turn around very soon.

You deserve a massive slice of good fortune, Ms M.

Hmm.

I once paid $100 for an Andy Chapman jersey, which he signed for me. He played professional indoor soccer (yes it's a sport) for the MISL Wichita Wings in the 1980s.

I'd be willing to trade that straight up.

Andy Chapman? Oh yes him. No sorry.

SMORGS WHAT YOU THINK?

0 Replies

Cripes.

I almost think it a duty to spend a night in a hotel pampering smorgsie.

If it wasn't for the fact that I'm a shagged out old has-been and lack confidence in knowing how to pamper a lady with so many troubles I would feel it incumbent upon me to put my foot forward and stand up and be counted.

And I also have to think of my intellectual committment to a celibate and ascetic life style and my neurotic fear of debauchery which a sergeant once described for me in lurid detail.

Were I not to be suffering under these millstones of disadvantage I would volunteer post-haste as it sounds as if it might be good fun.

But what I might do is try to make her like her job more. I tried before once and got a stream of abuse. It would be a start.

I think it was Stendhal who said that the world didn't allow a good looking bint to starve.

Smorgs what can I say? I'm so sorry to read about your woes, your offer sounds tempting though, I'd gladly shout you a plane fare instead of a bus-fare but there is one big handicap and that consists of three letters, MRS. Smile

Chin up girl, there must be better times ahead, my best wishes go with you.

0 Replies

smorgs - all the best. It sounds like you need a break right now.

spendi - that's a great post and I'm sorry if I barked nonsense at you previously.
