A new love?....

[bluegorilla]

hallo amay!
god to hear from you!

yes, hmm, i felt that too. but, i guess we'll see. and to join the page too....

ah, the lego nite- we'll just have a drink (or more!) and play with lego! god knows what kinda things we'll end up building!!!

as for the scottish twang, yes, i've always had it. my folks, when they came over her from india/uganda, they kinda like adopted an elderly scottish couple who lived next door to them. the couple jumped at the chance of having us kids as their grandkids. so yehp, i am proud of my wee scottishness!

i even plan to wear a kilt when i ever marry, to honour my grandpa. he was a good man, strong, loved whisky, but stern.

[amay]

So THAT'S why you love her accent so much! Reminds you of a loving environment.... bless ya! I really, really hope it goes well! Countdown to Thursday.... the cheersquad will be waiting with bated breath!!

Because when we do that you guys run for cover because we tried to be bold and went for what we wanted! Besides, it means more when you have to work for it!!!

[Duke]

Thats what you think

Because when we do make the first move, you guys get inferiority complexes and start spouting about how we're 'too confident' and 'forward', which basically reads as you think we're easy!!! Those double standards are alive and kicking and it's the guys who perpetuate them more than they think.... so there!!

You go girl!!!!!

That's a terrible generalization, you should be ashamed of yourself

lol

I actually prefer women who make the first move which, luckily for me, has been the case much of the time. I think its a sign of a woman who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to take the reigns and get it for herself.

[amay]

Well, it's a shame that not every bloke can think like that, it would certainly save a lot of time and hassle!

[amay]

Sorry BG, I think you can safely say there has been a hijacking in progress here!

[bluegorilla]

Halo guys))

Yes, I did notice this here hijacking! But, it's fine, no worries! I dig it!

Tomorrow is the 'Lego Challenge'! And it's snowing here. I hope it stops as I really wanna see the guys (and 'b') for that matter! I brought some Lego today as I have none!

Well, hope y'all well

bg

[Duke]

Good luck bg

[Luba]

Will be checking this thread on Friday to see how it all went as well as getting a report that you had fun, fun, fun, bg!

Signed by A member of your cheering squad!

[amay]

Ok BG, spit it out, how'd it go?? It's Friday and I wanna know everything! Even though I know it's about 3.30 in the morning there, you'll be snoozing/dreaming/sniffling, but I have to know!!!!

[Duke]

lmao it was only Friday down under, the rest of the world was still working on Thursday

[amay]

Ah but no! It was after 3am Friday in London!! And that's where he is!! I have to make it my business to keep up with time diffs so that if I ring home I don't wake anyone up! *lol* The UK is 10 hours behind Oz...

[Duke]

Ya but 3:30 in the morning lmao, he's still in bed resting up from a combination of Thursday and Lego envy.

[amay]

But at least it was Friday, had to get in before everyone else! BTW, 'Lego' and 'Envy' are two words that I never thought would end up in the same sentence....

[bluegorilla]

hello amay) wow! 3.30am?!
hey duke

first off, sorry for the late reply, had a busy morning doing some chores, job hunting etc.

well, 'b' failed to make it last nite.

yep.

i was really looking forward to seeing her, was a wee bit nervous, and at one point, i almost bottled it and for one milli second wasn't going to go, but morgan freeman's voice commanded me to "go!!!".

it was fun, we all drank and played lego and drank and played lego...

'b' later this morning posted a message on fb saying that she didn't make it as she had low funds and not enough to buy any lego. part of me is cool with this, and at ease, no worries. another part questions this as maybe she felt uneasy seeing me after i had asked her out. not sure. the instant messaging we had a few days back suggested that she was really interested in popping down, and as amay said, 'b' did miss "our banter".

but, for whatever reason i'm at peace and although it does sting in my heart when i see her on fb, i know that maybe it just wasn't meant to be and this is the course of this part we call 'love' in our lives.

i hope that i do see her again, not sure when, but hey, i hope.

hope all you guys are well, it is absolutely freezing here in london!

bg

[amay]

Ah mate, no!! She piked out on you, again!! I know I shouldn't as we all know what 'low funds' is like, but I'm really starting to get narked off with 'b'! It's like she doesn't know whether she's coming or going!! Doh! But hopefully it was a genuine reason. If she gets in touch again shortly then maybe you still have a chance but if you don't hear anything for a while, I think you'll sadly have to admit defeat. At least you got some kicka$$ lego and beer out of it!

[Luba]

but, for whatever reason i'm at peace

That's the important thing, bg, just know you are a really Great Guy and there is Adventure and Love waiting out there for you!

[Duke]

I think it's already been more trouble than its worth, time to bait the hook and go trolling again bg.

Some women know how to play hard to get others are simply hard to want; I think she's the later.

[bluegorilla]

hallo guys

yeah, it's kool, no worries!
we shall see what, if anything happens with 'b'.....i may, as duke so lovingly put it the other time, " toss my bait out" (hehehe!).

but, i'll still chat to 'b' and be kool, no pressure etc.

thank you luba for the kind words too

amay; yes, it may be defeat and yes, we ended up playing with the lego and drinking too! next time we're gonna push the boat out...it's gonna be 'jigsaw challenge!'

bg

(ps- oh, i funny thing happened. we were at the bar, ordering drinks and the bar stewardess asked us "so you guys just finished work?". we all looked at each other, laughed and my manager said "nope, we're just unemployed!")
