Just call me Fred

Hello it’s me and I know, you don’t usually see me this time of day.

Usually? Ever. I’m awake an hour earlier than usual because my good buddy / LDR called me at sparrows to see whether we’re still on for Portugal or whether I had eloped.

Comedians at break of day, oh yes please.

Thing is, I dearly love having male buddies but right now I’m rich beyond the dreams of avarice with male buddies. I’m talking to four through the joys of social media, between texts, whatsapps, skype, emails and good ol’ CS. One is now mainly lunchtimes - since I re-wrote his dating profile he’s getting out a lot more in the evenings. I get to hear about every date. In detail. One is early evening, one is middle evening, one is late evening. I’m like Crazy, but without the sex! because every single one of them thinks of me as good ol’ Fred and tells me about this lovely female, or that not-so-lovely-but-keen female, or just general stuff. Elope? To be laughing.

My romantic interest is mainly phone calls and long chatty emails. Occasional phone calls and emails. Tell you what. The day he calls to say there’s this female who has said something and what does it mean, is she interested, I will rip his head off, shove gravel down his throat, start taking male hormones, grow a beard and become good ol’ Fred because that’s obviously who I was born to be.

Good ol’ Fred. Sheesh.

If anyone can tell me how to turn back into a female, that would probably be handy. Especially for Portugal.

I'm going to work now so can't chat until later. If there's some advice to chat about, thank you in advance. help
So... by the sound of things, you are CS's answer to being an agony aunt.
I have that same problem...maybe I must buy a dress and stop hanging out in hardware stores looking like I know what I want. laugh
hi Biff
It cannot be that bad, can it? And you don't want a beard. Beards require daily attention. doh
hug wave
Hi Fred, was wondering if you could help, have a clunking noise when I change from second to third gear, will I need a new gearbox or do you reckon the old one will last a bit longer dunno
Sitting in my car giggling and getting odd looks. Love you all for making me laugh, but yup Titch I know you're joking. Even though half the guys on CS nearly changed their name to Fred before they finished reading your comment.
Running out of battery here so will be back later but serene, you're on different time zone so before you go - tell me HOW ok?
Taking afternoon to go shopping rolling on the floor laughing

Later xx
Read a book called Five Six Pick up sticks grin and all advice in that.laugh
It was bloody brilliant I could not put it down, it is being past around now.
Some very good pointers in that for safety and what to look for.
detective How many has be befriended or dated? is stark warningsrolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
Have good trip wave
I guess the days of calling you Auntie Biff are at an end!...wail sob sob!
Go to a shop that sells cow and horse accessories, and buy an electric fence. Set it up at the edges of your bed, and switch it on before you go to sleep. It may not solve your situation, but it reduces your chances of rolling out of bed.
Redex, thanks!! dancing dancing dancing
Sola, I think of myself more as a coach scold
Ek, do you think it's time to shed the dungarees and t-shirts? Hmmmm. I'll have to think about that ... confused
Cat, I rather like a beard. But mine would be ginger, a frightening thought. Maybe you're right.
Hmm, Z, I think you'll be okay for a thousand miles yet.

This is your car we're talking about, right? rolling on the floor laughing
Molly, I'm not very good at frilly. sigh help
Map, the days of calling me Auntie Biff were over before they started. scold I'd rather be Fred.
Pat, between the cat on one side and the dog on the other I can barely roll over, let alone roll out of bed. And at my age, anyone who can sweet talk his way past the dog is a charmer of note and welcome grin
Fiery, that's me. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. sigh I do think men must like talking to someone 'safe' who can be quizzed about women. Just flirt a little, guys. Pay the ferryman grin
Hope you got something nice and show a bit more skin on your hols Biff. conversing

Have to go shopping myself. doh
wave ( in my best Barney Rubble ) Hiya Fred.laugh
That's quite a figure you have there Lroll eyes
Molly, I did blink at your second paragraph. Then I re-read it, ohhhhh right rolling on the floor laughing
C'mon KN Pedal liked it rolling on the floor laughing

Skin? Hmm. I was planning a neck to toes flannel goonie as a back-up for the t, but if you think it will help ...


Pedal, yup, and I flaunt it, baby. Pretty unbelievable, huh? laugh
Now I know what women see in the mirror for forty years.laugh
Don't mock it, Barney, as trompe l'oeil it's surprisingly effective rolling on the floor laughing
I agreethumbs up , a few bottles of Wine, I could see it working.laugh ( oops, on another woman of course )laugh
I have no idea what a goonie is confused but the mention of flannel in regards to spending the night with someone else does bring on a headache. doh

Did you buy anything today that's not made of flannel or do I have to go shopping with you? scold
Oh thanks Barney make me feel special rolling on the floor laughing
I didn't buy anything at all, I was chained to my desk. YES PLEASE take me shopping blues I honestly haven't a clue. laugh
I have mini magnums. And rather dodgy wine. C'mon round! laugh


BROWN. No. Brown trim? could work.
I think I've fallen off the first page of blogs by now, safe to ask a very quiet question. I know CS doesn't allow promotions, but I started a FB page for the new book - finally settled on a writer name. Can I mention it?
Mini magnums and something other than brown dessous will work for me.

You can always mention it and delete it before you go to bed? wink
Oi, it's Saturdaywave ..........tongue
