RE: Weird Food

It's a right b*tch to catch though two legs shorter on one side than they are on the other, so they can run round hills

RE: Weird Food

hey .. beer is beer= what's a bit of food colouring

for me..... i adore haggis, spicy food from Scotland, but it's something others seem to fear??

RE: Get it off your chest,...... just get out in the open......

wishing the old jalopy that she drives, had an UZI on the front, for taking out old farts that think the fast lan is for ambling along in, at 40 miles/.hour..... what part of ''overtaking' lane is it you don't understand??

RE: Good or bad marketing?

i disagree- there are many different 'levels' of suicidal people IMO- those that are adamant they will do it, and will find any means possible to die/ those you cannot help- well maybe you can help them live until the next opportunity they get to kill themselves. I believe those people want to die regardless and to make them live is cruel- also those left behind, need feel no guilt, because they know there was NOTHING they could have done to save them

there are, however, sooo many people that are crying out for help and attention ( used to work in liver transplant, and saw too many people who took overdoses because they were upset about something, ususally minor... didn;t really want to die. just wanted to show everyone how much they were hurting....... some did just that, others did die after a few days from their OD even after they realised what they did was wrong, and wanted to live )

I don't think that having posters in prominent places will put tourists off, more that it will make them respect the Irish people that they care enough about their fellow countrymen to try and save them. Plus- if you have kids, and one of those posters made YOUR child think, even for a short time, enough to save them, do you really care about tourism??? maybe i am a bad person, but i would see the country go down the tubes before i would prevent my child/family member committing suicide

RE: Weed and Women?

prefer it to alcohol in many ways though i realise that smoking anything is bad for the lungs ( having given up smoking for last month ) would absolutely LOVE a joint- (it having been several monjths since my last indulgence your honour) but a I probably wouldn't dare4 as i would be afraid it would get me smoking again.
Have never felt MJ was something i couldn't control- have smoked it , none at all for years every night , once a month, or once every 4 years in my life- and enjoyed each the same.
# I like the fact that there is no hangover- and i feel there is much less gratuitous violence caused by those under the influence of dope, than there is by those under the influence of alcohol - it's been a good while, so maybe i need reminding!!

RE: OK Folks, whats the sca on last nights meet?

ha ha- no comment

RE: Dreams do come true!

wishing you and your boys ( and man!!) the very best

RE: OK Folks, whats the sca on last nights meet?

trich- she's from Scotland, and if it's one thing we know how to do well, it is to slag a man off without being too disrespectful. plus as we both know, our Mick is well able to handle a cheeky lass and will only take pleasure in 'debating' with a lassy that tries to show him a hard time. ( can't believe how much dirty ammo i have provided here!!)

RE: OK Folks, whats the sca on last nights meet?

and me with a fresh tin of peaches- going to waste again!!

RE: Is it a great night.....

from an occasional poster, since i am seeing someone in raheny(!) and smitten!!, but welcome to Cs and i hope you find all you wish for here

RE: The Who isn't at the party thread

ha ha- just back checking in tonight- hope the meet went well- will hope to hear of new romances- valentines- what a nauseating time to make a new connection, but also, if it happens , it happens, and , if i was looking,i would'nt pass it over!!!- hey, romance is romance, who cares what day/ cycle/star sign it is!!

RE: Age, and getting set in our ways

HA HA- how funny that this is the thread that gets me to renew my membership on cs ( ok so it's free so it's not quite such a decision!!)
those that are debating the pros and cons of moving, if you are used to living in a warm climate- please understand that living in a cold or wet or damp climate- can make a huge difference to your life.
# As someone who was raised in Scotland ( warm gulf streams and all that - so instead of crisp white exciting snow, we got dull gray rain, and more rain and yet more rain!!
so0 wherever you are thinking of moving to- please consider the climate it may seems insignificaNT TO YOU NOW, BUT CONSIDER IT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SOMEONE WHO HAS MOVED FROM ( oops sory about capitals) scotldnt to first Texas, and then new Hampshire- so i have experiencedf all that the USA has to offer.

I love Scotland and my family /heritage, and also that of my adopted country Ireland ( my kids are all 1/2 irish and we live here, but woukd i choose to live here if i was totally honest?? no i wouold choose to live in a place that was... ideally....warm, financially stable, short flight away from family etc etc. just realised this is miles away from the OP and i apologise

RE: Tips needed for giving up the ciggies...

don't do it- just think of the bucket of sick/phlegm/sputum- you will cough up in the next few months

RE: got beer?

anything except miller- has an aftertaste. of course, if it's 4 in the morning and there's nothing else and i want a beer, then miller is the best beer i ever met!!

RE: Do you ladies beileve in soul mates.................

hmmm- have been keeping quiet here for a few days-- have met some before that i had thought was a soul mate- but have since met one who i believe ticked all the boxes-- who knows??- at the start it is always 'loves young dream'- i think i have found more than that- and couldn't give a monkeys if i have free mobile and broadband!! lol as long as i have him - i am a true believer in love- idon't think he likes me being here- as as non cs member, i know him well enough to know that he is 'big' enough to allow me to be here if i want to be,as long as i don't embarass either of us- but it makes me think-?? much as i have enjoyed being here online as a single person- and makes me realise there are many totally normal people looking for a 'normal' other. not all those online lookinhg for a relationshgip are nutters and complete 'eejits'= i am sure there are many wierd and wonderful people online, but there are mnany like me, online hoping to meet a few normal people!!

RE: illness

hope she as ok- must out of the hospitsl myself- not too serious i hope- so far so well- best wishes to your mum

RE: Is being a non-drinker a turn-off?

well until your reply- i would have gone with vonneys- a person that doesn;t drink would immediately have been a red flag to me- did you used to drink??
not that there is anything wrong with that- a person that used to drink to excess and has now got that sorted is obviously a person that has regained control of his/her life.

that said- i am scottish!! and we like to have a drink at times- and i would not like to feel that i couldn't go out for an occasional wild night out if it would make me feel guilty.

i have a couple friends, however that are ex alcoholics, and can go out with us and have a great night of fun, but remain sober, because they know they have to. well, i have only respect for that.But in all honesty, an ex alcoholic probably wouldn't be a good choice for me, since i know that i enjoy alcohol on a (reasonably!!) responsible basis, and that would be a huge temptation to an alcoholic, and it wouldn't be fair on either of us-

either for me to have to not ever enjoy a drink without feeling guilty or for him to have to be in a tempting situation

RE: Do you ladies beileve in soul mates.................

i can kind of relate- there was an ex of mine- we could fight like cat and dog, but always made up( except for once obviously) but i believe a lot of that was time pressure- we worked completely different shifts, but when we were together, it was bliss. trying to get time together though was hard, and i believe led to too much pressure to enjoy that time. maybe that meant we weren't truly meant to be together, but i just know that on both sides, being together was special. i worked nights, and used to count the minutes/hours till i was at home with him- even if he would be asleep when i got there, and would have to touch him, even though he didn't know it.
since then- i am happy to know he is married with kids, and maybe we would never have worked out, and have no regrets- but i still believe there was a connection there- like i have not had since- though i have high hopes for my current relationship=
so maybe another question should be.. is there only one soul mate for me?- at this point, at this point i don't think so

RE: How is impressed here a woman here first time when she chats with a man?

agreed- i found that totally unneccessary!!

RE: For Lady! turn on or turn off!

and yet some men expect women to be hairless?? if you think your back is sensitive then just imagine......

having said that , my new guy has a fairly hairy chest, but was glad to see it didn';t match his back

RE: How is impressed here a woman here first time when she chats with a man?

claudya- i respect the fact that your english is so good that you can post on this forum- certainly much better than my grasp of your language, but please understand that there are many things that are posted on this forum that require 100% fluency in english to fully understand the asides/nuances/ and subtlety of the said post.

like i said- your relative fluency in english is commendable, i am not berating you in any way, but there are times when people not completely fluent in english can fail to see hte infelction of a phrase, or understand a joke in the context in which it is said, because they are not familiar wiht the particular sense of humour or turn of phrase used.

i think sometimes you do not understand the way that something has been said- not in an agressive manner, but merely as a joke that most would understand.

this is not a criticism of you, but merely of the restrictions of a language barrier that hides the humour that may be in the translation.

RE: Who's more moody ??? men or Women ???

ah now C- they are only human!! we need to be nice about them if we want us to be nice to them

RE: Who's more moody ??? men or Women ???

yeah!! i left my ex because he just didn't want to communicate or talk to me at all( not the only reason before ya jump on me!! ) and now have a man that doesn't shut up!! I thought i knew the way to hush him- but he will even talk when kissing- talk about from the ridiculous to the sublime!! but i have discovered that a simple 'shut up and kiss me' works!!!
ask me in a few months and i'll probably say..'god he talks to me too much'
am well willing to admit 'we are never happy'!!
but guys, please don't ever stop trying to make us happy- it's worth it!!

RE: Should ignorance of the law be a valid excuse?

to me- if the law is clear and well advertised, then people committing the crimes, should be punished to the full extent of the law.
this is also why i don';t think prison should be as 'cushy' as it is in some cases. simple argument- if you don't want to be in prison doing 'hard labour' like i think they should... then don't commit the crime?? simple to me.
some say that the loss of freedom itself is punishment enough, but i see many people in my job who are 'prisoners' in their own home due to finances or health issues, yet they don';t get free tv/computer/education/health care etc etc

as for a law against stupidity, it is not in itself enforceable, but should people who are too stupid to keep to the laws be prosecuted, hell yeah ( unless it is a measureable mental deficiency that renders them incapable of understanding the law)

RE: Marriage horror stories

well- only you can know if you should get married- ( never get married because someone tell you you need to!!)

I think most of the ex marrieds on here will admit that, while they are no longer married, there were good times in that marriage. I know i feel that way-I may have been 'discontented' at points in my marriage, and finally realised i was not happy and wanted some other kind of life, but I can't say i regret being married to him. Obviously many others marry and are happy with that person for life.
I say, when you find the person you truly believe you want to spend the rest of your life with, then go for it, and hopefully it will be for ever

RE: Who's more moody ??? men or Women ???

dammit- there goes my 'perfect' reputation

RE: women and pub/nite club toilets

well think about it- where else can we go to discuss in private what you said/did/if you're cute/ how can we chat you up without being too obvious/ does my bum look big in this/ do you think he likes me/ am i playing too hard to get or being too much of a floozy/ can i borrow some of that lipstick/ god i look like death warmed up, i need some blusher/i love your shoes, where did you get them?/isn't it terrible what's happening in Gaza??
see you guys are just thinking ' football, will she let me...xyz... football' whereas we are discussing the real important issues

RE: Who's more moody ??? men or Women ???

ha ha girls- fraid i have to say i think women are more moody.!! but we can blame hormones, and the fact that we have to put up with men- that's enough to make anyone moody!!

RE: Our health...I'll drink to that!
