I see that MSN is closing its chatrooms "We have seen cases where under-16s have been approached by people pretending to be same age, but who are grown adults trying to solicit young people for abusive contact."

My thoughts naturally turned to this forum, and the forthcoming Cherbourg meeting. Could we unwittingly be inviting cauliflour hoarders, serial forehatch rebedders and holding-tank fetishists along? Imagine discovering this half way over on a filthy channel crossing!

Having second thoughts and need reassurance

This also is a real concern of mine, I would be disappointed indeed if the forum members I have grown to e-know turn out in fact to be busty teenage nymphets rather than the straggly bearded baldy old coots I visualise (sorry JJ).

Mental Images
TwisterKen .. skinny wiry bearded twinkly eyed.
Tome ... big fat guy a la Robbie Coltrane
Claymore .. tall, bearded, elegant,cultured
Nicho .. Barry MCGuigan lookalike
Parahandy ... Rab C Nesbitt role model
Fatipa .. A sort of Leonard Rossiter
Zefender .. is in fact Ian Duncan Smith
TCM .. sort of Kenneth Clarke figure
Ohdrat .. bit like Charlie Kennedy
Kim..Saddam Hussein

I sincerely hope these e-llusions will not be shattered.

Ho Ho!

You should know that I received a standing ovation at this weeks Weight Watchers, but it's left me with a lot of loose skin. Thinking about a nip an' tuck...

Chartrooms to close

I have no need to solicit young people for abusive contact. My children behave abusively towards me of their own free-will.

And how many young people have a chartroom anyway?

Aahh - now I understand. I thought she was looking at me rather strangely - anyway at 25 you are still too old for her.

Always meant to ask you - why does your lighthouse 'bob' about, if thats not too personal a question? Never seen one like it before

OK Donald - I'll try to explain.
Normally when sitting on a boat sailing along here is a certain amount of 'bobbing up and down' going on.
When sat here at the PC the world is entirely devoid of all such movements. The floor is made of concrete, the desk is fairly solid and all in all, not much moves.
This gives a very false impression because as I noted in the opening gambit, when one is sitting on a boat sailing along here is a certain amount of 'bobbing up and down' going on.
Soooo, in a brave attempt at not giving a false impression, I thought I'd introduce the bobbing lighthouse. Are you beginning to understand me now Donald, you see, with the desk and PC both being still, but with the lighthouse bobbing, I think it gives a pretty realistic impression to anyone who views it, of what life is really like out there by Ardnamurchan, Skerryvore, Rattray Head, the Isle of May.....

Makes me quite ill just looking at it...and here is me thinking that 'Claymore' was a big heavy motorsailor sitting solidly in the water.... It looks as if your are sailing in the bath..

Much prefered the black square you had earlier (which turned out to be a nice bit o' plaid)

Re: Donation Tradition

And to think he could have chosen this or this.. I'm v surprised Claymore didn't go for the "Weathered" as I would have thought this might match his complexion best.
