Johnny - I have often wondered what you did?  For a while I thought you were the johnny that worked at Shadwell. If you are more explicit I can be equally revealing - AND I can guarantee that mine will engender far more abuse than anything your job/ex-job can generate.

I might have to PM you Blackbarn. No, I'm not Johnny who used to work at Shadwell, he's now gone to France I understand.

Oui -pm me if you want.

Full time fridge filler. I fill the fridge with food, she bloody devours it. The pitfalls of living with a monster. But, as long as I keep the fridge fully stocked, the growling is kept to a minimum. I made the mistake of half filling the fridge once, never again I said as I left the hospital after a weeks stay.

you need a bigger fridge

I saw it mentioned last night on that P J Harvey thread on YouTube.
So I clicked his name on here and his profile has gone.

Very few of those banned have been let back on.

Yet crags seems to come and go as he pleases.

Crags had a girlfriend who worked for Betfair, Legs11, maybe something to do with it,

Anyone who calls their girlfriend/wife their partner is an idiot.  And that's a fact.

People over a certain age all do because they know what sounds even more stupid when your 55, is calling your 58 year old other half your girlfriend when she's almost a pensioner, grey and likes to nit her grandkids wolly jumpers at night.

You call her your friend.  Only politically correct tw@ts use the term partner.  And that's a fact.

Remainers attacking the OAP's still i see!

Retired now,but I used to be a program seller at Coronations.

I hate the term partner, but calling someone a pct is just plain rude

"your friend"



You have to be more specific then that when talking about your other half, because you have loads of friends, but you don't go home to bed with all of them, I think you have stop fighting getting old and reach the acceptance stage quicker, in your thirties it's not good to call her your girlfriend, long time since she was a girl, partner is acceptable to many. Maybe for you, you can just say something like "my other half", I mean, if you were introducing her to one of your male friends, you don't say "and this is my friend Rachel", because they could lead to all sorts of complications, i.e. they will try to get it on with her, if you found them in bed together one day it would be your fault "I thouht you said you were just friends."

self employed gardener

if you were introducing her to one of your male friends, you don't say "and this is my friend Rachel",

You say this is Rachel


In your world you may need a formal declaration of relationship with every person you meet but I've never found it necessary.

Never met anyone who when meeting their new other half for the first time, don't bother to introduce her by saying either "this my friend Rachel" (as in friend) or this is my girlfriend Rachel (20's) or Partner Rachel (30s).

I'd hazard a guess everyone would say the same.

How would you introduce you mum ?

This is Carol, she brought me up for 16 years but I refuse to call her mum in front of anyone because it's none of your buisness who she is

Correcting the first line

Never met anyone who when meeting a new person they are with for the first time, don't bother to introduce her by saying either "this my friend Rachel" (as in friend) or this is my girlfriend Rachel (20's) or Partner Rachel (30s).

"But I only shagged your mate because you didn't use the correct possessive noun.  So its all your fault"

Potentially, she may think that you are ashamed of her by not introducing her as your other half, and in that instance may not even tell your friend you are together, like you didn't

I think you're giving away your insecurities

This is basic social skills

...for the insecure

Oh blimey you actually took the time and trouble to do that.  I actually feel sorry for you

Scandi trying to bait people again, no wonder some call him a snitch.

Retired.  Was an accountant.
No a full time thoroughbred pedigree analyser (amateur).

retired systems engineer,
now a short term investor... usually 5 or 6 furlongs.

Had a couple of jobs translating patents and medical literature back in the '80s, but then Nigel Lawson (God bless you, sir) abolished the on-course betting tax, so that was the end of that.

Had a communication out of the blue from the Revenue just before Christmas the year before last. I thought the simplest way of explaining the last quarter of a century would be to declare that I was retired. I must say I was rather taken aback to receive a reply along the lines of "Very good, sir. We shan't trouble you again."

Who knew it was that easy to get them off your back?

Probably best not to follow up with an enquiry about whether 55 is old enough to start drawing the state pension though.

So that's me - Retired.

When I phoned the tax office about 10 years ago and told them my only income was from gambling the woman asked me if I had any tips.  Never had any problems with them.

Tabloid headliner writer. I don't do any smutty headlines though, so don't ask me to give you one.

Got bored with working, and sorting out other people's problems.

Retired in November 2009 having spent six years on here, part time.

I was an "Orange Paint Specialist", but six years of action on here, made me realise how much I had been missing!

Now a full time "risk analyst" and long may it continue....

I do nothing, to do nothing requires energy. a person doing something has an easy time of it in comparison.

Usual witty reply from Crisp

It was a bit obvious.......2/10
