Would you marry a ghost ?

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (5267) • United Kingdom 8 Sep

I watch some daft programmes, I really do ! At the moment I am watching a programme called “ First Dates “ This is where single people go to a restaurant for a blind date, a nice meal and a few drinks. It’s all recorded. At the...

Max Crisp I don’t watch First Dates, but I’ve seen clips on Gogglebox. Not heard about the woman marrying a ghost, but I did read about a woman marrying a rag doll. She’s even claimed to have had a rag doll baby too. I think that’s just as bizarre as marrying a ghost....

Slower Dancing Songs: If You Leave Me Now

Four Walls @FourWalls (78766) • United States 8 Sep

Well, it’s time for a slow skate! Most of the songs until now have been more mid-tempo than rock-out songs. And, yes, I roller skated to this song, so it is a good one to skate to. So, for @rebelann and all the people...

Max Crisp Great song. I think I probably did sway to this song at the end of the disco nights back in ‘76. I’d like to say “halcyon days” but I really can’t remember.

Max Crisp I don’t know why, but I never eat sweets in the morning. I like chocolate in the afternoon and nothing in the evening. What does that say about me?

Do people really care about you?

Yuleima Gutierrez @YuleimaVzla (1878) • Maracaibo, Venezuela 5 Sep

Today I had a conversation with a person and on several occasions I heard from other people the same phrase that says "nobody cares about the things that happen to you" there really is less humanity in People? Have people always...

Max Crisp I used to care about other people a lot, now not so much. I think I ended up giving much more than I was receiving and it was bugging me. It might be just down to age, but I just let others get on with their lives and I just concentrate on myself.

Slower Dancing Songs: Heartbeat

Four Walls @FourWalls (78766) • United States 7 Sep

Wow, what a game! We had two baseball games that had exciting, 9th-inning walkoffs yesterday, but the most amazing one was the Baltimore Orioles. Celebrating the 30th anniversary of Cal Ripken Jr.’s 2,131st consecutive...

Max Crisp A bit fast for my slow dance moves. We had a tv series called Heartbeat, which used this as its theme tune but not sung by Buddy. The show was a police drama set in the sixties. It was an easy watch with lots of great tunes played during the...

Highs and lows of our motorhome trip part 1

Fleur @Fleura (32580) • United Kingdom 7 Sep

This got a bit long so I've split it into two parts. So what was the verdict of our week in a motorhome? Would we do it again? I have to say I’m not sure about that, as a family anyway. I enjoyed the experience. We did have a...

Discounts at Restaurants

celticeagle @celticeagle (179722) • Boise, Idaho 7 Sep

Do you enjoy going out to a restaurant, or even fast-food place, occasionally? I sure do. But since we order our food to be delivered, I can't get the discount. But I thought I would make a list here for those of you who enjoy a...

Max Crisp That’s a crazy amount of money to win. I think I’d be overwhelmed. We have lotteries over here that get to around £200m, but the chances of winning are so slim, I don’t bother buying a ticket. Good luck!

Max Crisp This is a “new” one to me. I like watching old movies, so might give this a go. Henry Fonda was a good actor, and Maureen O’hara was great in “The Quiet Man”.

Accents

Always smiling @allknowing (153662) • India 5 Sep

Max Crisp You sound like an Indian and I hear that accent a lot whenever I talk to call-centres “over here”. I’ve got what we call a “Geordie” accent, so you’d probably struggle to understand me.

Max Crisp 19 years? Wow, you must have been a child when you signed up! I’ve been here 17 years, but I don’t recall the actual date I joined. I rarely have pizza, but when I do I prefer a veggie one. Usually peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes and onions.
