RE: which military is the strongest in world now???

England?? I think you mean Great Britain?!

And don't forget ANZAC!

The SAS and the Gherkas are, of course, formidable!

RE: Say something nice about the person above you..

No, not irresistable..... Well, perhaps just a little?

Needless to say, he is blind as a bat without his glasses.

I think it helped!!

RE: Say something nice about the person above you..

I don't really know him but he looks very handsome!

RE: Ladies, what do you like your men to wear to bed?

Thank you, Prairiewoman....

Perhaps a little reminiscent of the old Hollywood classics with Cary Grant and some leading lady....

OR, as he says..... nail yer hat on, love!!

RE: Why do people threaten to leave CS?

That's fair enough, Ken! It is good to see you still here though, love!


The Forums just wouldn't be the same.... and you know it!

RE: Ladies, what do you like your men to wear to bed?

Well, at the moment.....

I have just come out of hospital, feeling grotty, and hardly look a real catch in my dressings....


AND... my beloved is 252 miles away....

Still.... a lot of time to make up, eh?!! Get the Gladiator outfit out of mothballs, love.....

BRACE YERSELF, EDNA!!!!

RE: What is ur dream vaction?

Nope, none of those on your list..... Italy, of course!! I am returning to Sorrento in October.

Can't wait!!!

RE: Why do people threaten to leave CS?

I can confess to having "left" or intending to leave on about 3 occasions whilst having been here, though I can't say I have "threatened" to leave... I am not one for dramatics so not sure what the "threatening" thing is about, other than seeking attention, yes?

Things evolve, change, move on here, just as with RL, I guess. For me personally.... almost all the "oldies but goodies" are gone, each time I have returned its been even more lack-lustre than the last time AND.... I have met someone, of course. All these factors will, and DO, play a part.

Perhaps I no longer have anything worthwhile to contribute (if I ever did)??!

So much features in the equation, change is a good thing and, after all.... nothing is FOREVER, is it?!

I have stayed for the fabulous friends I have made, but then I am in contact with those most special to me off-site.

Time to move on? Quite probably?!

Good thread!

RE: It's time to draw a line in the sand

Predominantly red..... and Italian! I'm a bit of a trad when it comes to wine, not too keen on the NW wines, though I have found a couple of lovely SA ones from the Stellenboch region.

Amarone, a nice Barolo, or I may even settle for a Bardolino. If I have white, my faves are Tocai, Trebbiano and especially Bianco di Custoza (mostly from the Veneto region of NE Italy).

RE: Dedicated to the Regulars of CS

Just how regular makes one a "Regular"??

RE: Ladies, what do you like your men to wear to bed?

A Gladiator outfit!!


MAXIMUS!!!! Coooo...





Right, gotta dash.... someone's turned the bloody thermostat up in here, haven't they?!

RE: The Irony of his statements...

Its absolutely TRUE... it is!! Noone has a more vacant mind than I and I have eventually found someone.

So, ya see....

RE: Conrad

Didn't know, but wondered where he was....

A speedy recovery to you, Conrad. Hope to see you back here just as soon as you are able!

RE: Does unconditional love truly exists that isn't a parent/child relationship?

Unconditional love? Nope....

Unquestioning love? Yes, of course!

RE: my best friend for 10 years ' the alcoholic ' died today from cirosis of the liver

Very sorry to hear that, Gilly!

RE: POE

Excellent writer indeed!! Didn't know about the roses, etc. Thanks for that.... very interesting!

RE: are u real?

Of course you are.... both of you. And congrats on your recent news!!

RE: are u real?

You KNOW this?! How did you come up with that specific ratio?

RE: What would YOU do??

Tee hee....

I did ask earlier but remain none the wiser.

RE: What would YOU do??

Thank goodness for that, Snuggs..... I thought it was just me?!

Phewww...

RE: What would YOU do??

I take it the "another" in the first paragraph and the person offering help in getting away in the second paragraph are NOT one and the same?

In which case, I believe it would be best to take up the offer and spend some time away. If one is going through hard times, one may not be best placed to deal with things and assist the other. In allowing time and space, one may come back refreshed and stronger to be able to be of help to the "another"....?

RE: Show no mercy

You revived this thread from well over a year ago?!

And just to ask about the pic from someone no longer here?!

Forgive me for asking, but..... WHY?!!!

RE: Say Something, Anything....but be NICE Not! lol

Ahhh, how lovely.... thank you, kind sir!!

RE: Do you think if you fail your a failier?

I think not somehow, Col. On another thread I didn't even understand a word she said!! Unless its just me...?!

BTW... Rose nor Sharon are my real name, of course.

RE: Say Something, Anything....but be NICE Not! lol

Blimey!! Are the Forums dead or what...?!!

RE: Do you think if you fail your a failier?

What a fab philosophy!!

RE: no rules.

Yes, SOME are, I'm afraid!

Good to see you, as always, Len! Hope all is well with you, my friend.

RE: Do you think if you fail your a failier?

No, if you fail at something, it means you have at least TRIED?! Not even trying, I would consider more of a failure. Besides, suceeding comes in many forms.

RE: Would you change your ways if someone told you the bad things about yourself?

Good to hear he's your EX then!! I am sure most of us can be a little more flexible and adaptable. I certainly wouldn't live my life according to what another deemed appropriate for me but then I am capable of accommodating another's feelings and needs, I believe. Just as I welcome CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Its simply a balance.... isn't it?

Good luck with the next (better?) one....

RE: The Person Below Me....

Sorry..... that's Wednesdays!

TPBM likes dancing?
