Hello, Kimberley, lovely to meet you

Hi, and enjoy this friendly polace

or multiples thereof

in three words

tell me it

I used to be quite good at it. I do try to welcome new females when I notice them.

However, welcoming new males would be a full time job and with lots of extra PM's to answer as a result.

Have I made a rod for my own back? But there aren't so many girls, and well...

I'm old enough to be unfazed but... I don't know how to put this. I know, do you lke to walk into a pub full of men? I still don't, but..

Oh man up, chaps. If you want to wear boots, wear them whatever the weather.I wear them all year round, and know chaps that do too.

No waterfalls in my bit of Hampshire just have to make do with what runs of gutters and drainpipes:silly:.

Trout and watercress in the rivers though, which is good in its own way.

I think it's to do with multi tasking, everything goes into a form of overload and things get dropped off (the subject).

Same happens here but far less tasks

Al

For me, multi tasking means starting a hundred things and finishing none. I need multi people to help refocus me from time to time.

Sorry. Was trying to be witty (never a good idea), not meaning to sow confusion.

Hello and welcome. My, you're a tall one. I'm going to get a crick in my neck talking to you lol.

Yep, Im very narrow minded in those regards.

I never wear trousers and there's no-one to wear them for me. The last word, that would depend which half of my conscience shouts the loudest.

It is indeed beautiful. I'm stuck indoors working, but I think I might give it up and go out. I think the sea might be all blue and glimmering today. I'm not really a sandals girl. My circulation means my feet look purple, so I like to keep them hidden.

Well if my bright shoes get me someone to dance with I don't care lol.

i suppose its all possible. in the mid 60s,did we ever foresee men in long hair etc being ok? so its possible

Well, history didn't start in the twentieth century. Cavaliers in the 17th century with flowing locks, Gauls with plaited hair. We're all the same animal and the difference between the sexes is not always as great as we see it. Or as important.

What was wrong?

The link keeps making my browser crash. All I can see is bright coloured shoes mean you're the first girl on the dancefloor. Well, I like bright shoes, and I did used to be the first, so maybe there's something in it. I'll try again later and see if I can see more.

Hi Sharon, I had on black mid calf slouch boots and black tights, a green just below the knee cotton dress with an embroidered bodice and my leather jacket that I told you about last week. It felt very different as an accident, as there wasn't the feeling of naughtiness you get when you do it deliberately. The water was icy. I tried not to think of people looking at me as I walked home, but I did feel a bit self conscious. I don't think I can get as confident as you. Regards, Megan x

I've just read through your thread. I hesitate to comment, because, well, it's not a problem I've ever encountered. But if you don't get on with men's fit trousers and you don't want to be a woman, have you thought of 'going Scottish' and wearing the kilt? I think a man with the right legs looks fabulous in a kilt, and with all those pleats you'd could walk with swagger and confidence. Just a thought.

A good number of the gay men I've known have been male to the point of tediousness. Oh, how much better a man(straight or gay) who knows his female side. (Why isn't there yin yan sign available? (.s.) No, doesn't work.) Equally, a woman who knows her male side. When more people know themselves we'll finally get away from stereotype

I'm just enjoying Joanne Harris's book, the sequel to Chocolat. Just wanted to share this, because I loved the picture so much. "She came in early today, just as Anouk was leaving for school. I left her alone for less than an hour - just time enough to take Rosette for a walk - and when I got back the place looked brighter, somehow; less cluttered, more attractive. She'd changed the display in the shop window, spreading a swatch of dark-blue velvet on to the pyramid of tins that filled it, and on top she had placed a pair of bright-red, shiny high-heeled shoes, brimming over with foil-wrapped chocolates in red and gold. The effect is eccentric, but arresting nevertheless. The shoes - the same red shoes she was wearing on that first day - seem to shine in the dark shop window, and the sweets like buried treasure spill across the velvet in cubes and fragments of coloured light. 'I hope you don't mind,' said Zozie, as I came in. 'I thought it could do with a bit of a lift.' 'I like it,'I said. 'Shoes and chocolates...' Zozie grinned. 'Twin passions of mine.'" I'm only half way through, but I urge you to read this wonderful book. A picture is worth a thousand words, and Joanne Harris paints pictures with her words. (And she name drops shamelessly, which makes me love her more.)

I never realized that Megan. You are so right. Where are all the welcoming ladies on this forum. It must be overwhelming for a girl who says hello on this forum to be welcomed by a bunch of guys.

I used to be quite good at it. I do try to welcome new females when I notice them.

Amanda Snake, I know. Not aimed at you. But I just think the girls could look out for the girls. We do get privileges here, after all. I like the girls only forum because sometimes I just want to talk to girls, so... Actually I came here just to talk to girls, but then I made new male friends.

It'd be nice to have some girls say hello.

Oh, wonderful, but your left foot looks a bit twitchy

I had a genuine accident today. I went for a walk in the park to see the spring flowers. I was crossing the stream and I slipped on the stone and ended up sitting waist deep in the stream. There were some people there who were very concerned for me. They were very sweet. If they only knew.
