Hebden Bridge meet-up?

[Dissident Junk]

I will be in the Fox and Goose from 7:30pm onwards tonight, if anyone fancies coming down.

I'll be wearing a dress with squares on.

 

[Pete the Greek]

I'm coming too.

*sidles up to dissident junk...*

;-)

 

[Dissident Junk]

Hey . . . keep your brown paws to yourself, PtG.

 

[Pete the Greek]

Impropriety? Moi?

You must be mistaken, darling.

 

[Pete the Greek]

anyway, enough of the marauder type references.

We Greeks invented civilisation didn't you know.

 

[Dissident Junk]

But alas, never got the hang of punctuation marks . . .

 

[Pete the Greek]

Don't you bloody ellipsis me, mate!!!




edit to add: I'm a cock, an ampersand is this = @. Rather than an ellipsis which is this ...

*slys off back to Geek School*

 

[Dissident Junk]

It's an ellipsis, not an ampersand.

 

[Dissident Junk]

Are you trying to flirt with me?

Do you know how dangerous that is?

I'm a direct descendent of Aristotle. That man knew danger and by jove, as he evaded those attempted poisonings, his genes were just getting started in the big "hand me down."

This is disgraceful. You can't talk to me like this; it's impertinent.

Leave it out Miss Prim and Proper, you're loving it. Or should I be grammatically correct and change that to: You love it (present simple) you loved it (past simple) You have loved it (perfect tense) you are gonna love it even more once I get my "brown paws" on you (future will/shall tense)

 

[Dissident Junk]

How do you know I am a Miss?

 

[Pete the Greek]

Going back to the Greek thing...I'm a gambling man.



and my efforts tend to pay off dividends.

 

[Dissident Junk]

Actually,

you are gonna love it even more once I get my "brown paws" on you

is 'going to' future, not future will/shall tense or a conditional.

 

[Pete the Greek]

I stand corrected, though it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

I have some terrible habits, Dissident. You don't want to know.

 

[Dissident Junk]

How much of an old dog are you?

Are you like a 'ole sea dawg'?

 

[Pete the Greek]

'ello peeps, flipping cold up north innit!!

 

[Dissident Junk]

That's a sea lion, you nerf.

Not a sea dog.

 

[Pete the Greek]

turn it in, it's an "old seal dog" GEDDIT?!?!



anyway, the purpose was to elicit sympathy and attention, and ultimately love leading to an illicit rendezvous.

 

[Dissident Junk]

The love comes before the illicit rendezvous?

*flaps hands in air*

I can't even believe I'm entertaining all this. I am a serious person; I read MEED for fun. I don't do frivolous, or silly.

And I like libraries.

so allow me to deduce:

you are good at grammar, so you probably teach? ... check.
you seem to have a clear and perfectly understandable allure to young, handsome greek men ... check
you like books and libraries, so you probably wear glasses? .. check

*slaps hands together*

GAME ON GIRL...How do you like those rasher's in't morn?

I do not teach.
I sometimes wear glasses.

And

Why is an allure to Greek men 'perfectly understandable'?

O andras Elleeniki eeneh poli vromeeki. Afto, xero.

I think I like you.

 

[Pete the Greek]

Quick shout out ahead of tonight

Is it just going to be Dissident Junk and myself going this evening?

Give us a shout out if you are a possible / maybe / definite

 

[citygirl]

oooh, can't wait to hear how they "got on"

 

[soulman]

Maybe we'll never know.

 

[William of Walworth]

oooh, can't wait to hear how they "got on"

Yes, I'm bumping this to find out but also ..

Because I think the idea of a Hebden Bridge meetup, hopefully in February, should be revived

I'm PMing moose, MsShirl, bees and aqua to bring their attention to this, hopefully others who get on this forum will be interested too

I provisionally propose the weekend of Saturday 24th February

How does that look people?

 

[MsShirlLaverne]

That weekend's good for me William.

 

[Spion]

Sounds good to me too
