Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

I grew up in Coventry, Warwickshire (now part of the West Midlands :frown:) and used to drive through Shropshire on the way to North Wales (a landmark is the 'Wrekin').

The town of Ludlow in Shropshire is very beautiful - and like Shrewsbury has lots of Tudor black & white buildings. There was a very funny TV comedy mini-series in the mid-80s called 'Blott on the Landscape' which was filmed in Ludlow, particulary an old inn set in the town square.

I had a boyfriend who used to go to boarding school in Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire. The countryside is glorious around there. Actually Herefordshire is also a county further south which also borders Wales....again lovely countryside too.

Going slightly off-topic; Dontheturner - what are you doing at Christmas this year? I know it's not really celebrated in Thailand (although many of the tourist hotels and shopping areas will put up decorations and a tree). I'm flying from New York to Singapore next week, but Christmas just doesn't feel right in the tropics...:unsure:

Do you have a Tesco Lotus supermarket in your area? I spotted one in Phuket, and they're also in Malaysia - but sadly not in Singapore (although of course they're nowhere near as good as the 'real thing' in the UK!). I've also seen a couple of 'Boots the Chemist' shops in Bangkok - even doing the '3 for 2' promotions like they have in the UK......I reckon their biggest sellers are Western size condoms....:lol:

Errr, Don, TMI. :thumbdown:

TMI = Too Much Information.

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK.
 

Who To? And what was that all about? Please explain your self.

I don't think you have any idea, what the lady was talking to me about. < Unless of course you are under the age of consent. Don

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK.
 

Don, OK, maybe I have to spell it out - do we really need to know the details of your condom-using habits?

And why woould I have no idea what she was talking about? I can read and I can use Google if I need further information.

And I wouldn't tell a "lady" whether I use a condom on a public forum (and I definitely include Englishmum under that definition).

Keep yer 'air on.

It was dealt with, Past & Gone. Why did you need to resurrect it? You do this too much. Don't bother me. grow up. Second time you have tried to pull me up about things. We do not need it. (Go back and study Gumtree if it is so good).

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK.
 

Maybe I'm not keeping up (hard to do in this thread!), but I didn't see any post where this was "dealt with".

The TMI reference is usually used as a humorous comment - if you are "bothered" by a mild, subtle comment objecting to you using sexual innuendo then I think this maybe says more about you than it does about me (perhaps that possibility hasn't occurred to you?). I'm not sure who really needs to grow up.

As for telling me to "Go back to Gumtree", that's the sort of comment I expect from a redneck, not an expat. The UK belief in free speech - surely you remember that? I've contributed to this site for years, always within the rules of conduct, and I don't intend to stop now.

I think you need to get over yourself and move on. I can't see why you wanted to perpetuate this line of discussion in the first place.

Quote from DTT on 50's/60's thread:

TT - It is not just the pies - everything in Greggs, just makes you so hungry!
Including the pasties, and the bread, also Salad Sandwiches.
You really need to go to www.greggs.co.uk and you will be in the shop! Went to the local Hospital, for FREE medication repeats today, and the Doc (She) gave me 6 months supply, and said for us to go back, two weeks before we leave, for another repeat, and we shall be taking a large cake, for the massage girls, (who Oil me up) and one for the nurses too. (67 Days to leave here) Love Don. xx

He's at it again!! :ohmy::o

Re: Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

I'm so confused by this thread!

Re: Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

You are not the only one .:confused:

What type of things are ment to be posted here BTW ?

Re: Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

It's a cut and paste from the 50's/60's thread on the moving back to UK forum.

I'm guessing it was removed as it was 'off topic' from the other contributions to the thread.

I think the guy who made the comments (Don) gets a bit frisky with the ladies at times and his comments reflect this. Hence.....

:rofl:

Re: Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

Right ,I was wondering if it was a thread for Don's 'cheeky ' moments !

Thanks for explaining :rofl:

Re: Off-topic posts from over 50's/60's thread
 

Gab - off topic?? Perhaps a little. frisky???
Not at all. Most times, my Wife is lying on the next bed. She has Thai massage ( pressure points only) Whilst I have Oil massage.
Patients in the hospital clinic , and me included, tend to wander off and dream, as it is so relaxing, for the one and a half hours.
That is when I start to think of the places like Greggs, I miss till we get back, into the land of the living. Regards All, Don
