I had to turn down sex last night. Me, turn down sex? With my reputation?

He's got a girlfriend.

I feel all the worse after taking a look at the messages on his phone. Looking at a couple from the girl in question, she mentions the fact he's fantastic in bed.

Think I'm destined to be single forever. Ho hum. Better get the knitting needles out then.

Mr right will show up eventually, he needn't be Mr rightnow.

Besides, if you're gonna be single forever that must mean I'm even more doomed

Thank you for the sympathy but how'd you mean, you must be worse off?

just a silly little comment brought on from nearly four years of singledom and no sight of this changing in the near future (nobody has made it apparent that they're interested, or if they have i've not noticed). in some respects it's ok, but on others i don't half think i'm missing out on sharing lifes little pleasures with a significant other...

I suppose in that respect I'm a little luckier than you, but when just when I see something good coming over the horizon, the evil goblin called tough luck takes over!

Have you tried kicking it in the nuts?

Croz, kicking that goblin in the nuts doesn't help.

And I have to second the feeling of if fords is being destined to be single forever, then I would have no hope in hell. Ach well.. That's life, I guess... It sucks, and then you die.

What have I started?

Well it's a whole lot better than the goblin getting a blow in first.

Croz, a word in your shell-like - when you're discussing sex, "blow" is one of those words you have to be careful with.

"He's got a girlfriend."

You know, you could have just ignored this fact.

Can I claim it was a Freudian slip?

You can try...

Gonzo! WHere've you been hiding? How's life?

EV, I thought the same thing, that the word 'blow' should be used carefully in a forum discussing sex, but I thought I'd let it go unnoticed...

fords, whatever happened to that young man who hid himself away in your bed that night before being chased away by your flatmate? Isn't he still available?

Oh yeah, Aussie Dave!

Unfortunately for me, he works the weirdest hours in some pipe factory now, but I might just give him a call....

And Croz, enough of that in-your-end-o, keep it clean!

didn't realise what I'd said until it was pointed out.

I think I'll shut up before anything else I say gets double entendred.

"Unfortunately for me, he works the weirdest hours in some pipe factory now, but I might just give him a call...."

Do so. And good luck.

What is it with you and Australians, young lady?

What makes you think I have a thing for Australians, Bruce?

Might as well look towards the Antipodes, I haven't had much luck with guys in this part of the world...

well since your comi make that travelling to the meet theres always Earls Court
