Forza Cuore Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Worked in the same office as the future Mrs. We never spoke apart from "morning". Out on the sauce on a Friday after work, staggered into the Melville...bumped into another lot from our Office (which said Mrs was with). Coerced into going to the Citrus Club.. .Danced with the young Lady...borrowed ?20 from her for drink. One thing led to another and here I am 12 years later married and 2 kids.

I knew Linda had been peeking and chatted to her online for a bit, and then we decided to meet up as friends, which lasted about 2-3 weeks and the rest is history.

The Old Tolbooth Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Oh what the hell, here goes ffs! Anything to keep that big wummin Deek happy! I was seperated from my ex wife and started chatting to a burd online, it was around July 2002, her name was Kerry. I met her (if you can call it that) in an internet quiz room chat thingy and we started having a bit banter back and forth etc, and it turned out she was from London, I think it was Romford but I'm not too sure these days as it was a while ago. Things developed and we eventually swapped phone numbers and started chatting properly on the telephone and she asked me to send a pic of myself to her online. Well I hadn't a clue how to do this but learned how to work a scanner and uploaded a pic of me and sent it on to her via email I think, and she said that she liked what she saw (that really should have set the alarm bells ringing like! She then sent me a pic of herself, and she was a lovely! A gorgeous brunette, with dark coloured eyes and a figure to die for, and I thought "it's the accent, it must be the accent". Anyway, after a period of time chatting away on the phone we decided to meet, we just had to decide where and when. I thought sod it, she's hot, and the train fare was only about ?40 return to Kings Cross. I set off the day before I was due to meet her on a train to London and got into Kings Cross at around 7pm ish iirc, went for a Burger King, checked into the hotel I stayed at for the night (which made Fawlty Towers look good, it was minging ffs!) and tried to settle down for the night. I remember getting virtually no sleep whatsoever to the walls being paper thin, and some randy couple next door banging away like a barn door in the wind and they were at it for what seemed like ages (credit where it's due like, even if I didn't get much sleep! Anyway, the night came and went, and I went for a shower in the morning, and I remember a shower room which was shared by the entire top floor, which was about 5 rooms, and a bar of soap with more pubic hairs in it than hirsute brothel! Luckily I had some shower gel with me and I was able to wash properly. I was due to meet my lovely looking date on the same morning that Brazil were playing England in the world cup in Korea and Japan, and the game kicked off at 7.30am I think. I was up at 6am as I couldn't sleep (partly with the excitement of meeting my stunner, and partly cos of the adonis tw@t through the wall to me in the hotel). We had chatted on the mobile the night before and had agreed that she would pick me up in her BMW outside the Canary Wharf buildings the following day (at this point I'm thinking, classy burd!) and couldn't wait to meet her, although I wanted to take in some of the match as well. I made my way from the minging hotel to the tube station, and it as absolutely crawling with people with Union Jacks and St George flags draped over themselves, almost everyone was up already and anticipating an England win, the place was swarming! I jumped on the tube to the Canary Wharf and deliberately left early to be able to take in some of the game before I had to meet her. I arrived at my destination and found that I was able to watch the match downstairs at the foot of the actual building, and was expecting to have to find a pub or summat to watch it. England took the lead and the place went flippin barmy, and I was standing there trying to force a smile and say well done etc, it was horrible, and then Brazil scored and everyone was sick, apart from me Anyway, my phone rings and it was Kerry, and I thought "YES" here she comes! She told me that she was going to be about 2 or 3 minutes and I was to wait outside, which I duly did, bag in hand, tongue hanging out, and very excited! She called me again to say that she would be coming past the building any minute and to look out for her in her BMW, and asked what I was wearing so she could recognise me. "This is it" I thought, here she comes, any minute now!!!! I then clocked an old golden coloured BMW coming along which looked like it had seen both world wars, it was a complete heap, and the burd driving it was an absolute grunter:confused: I thought to myself at the time, nahhhhh, surely not, that's definitely not her as the burd in the pic was much smarter looking than that, however the phone rang again and she said the words that haunted me for ages afterwards "I think I just passed you" She went round the block (not for the first time by the look of it) and stopped right next to me and said, jump in Jock, and I thought to myself, holy fek, if I shag thon I'm gonna burn my arse on the lightbulb!! She was an absolute freekin growler ffs, I was literally scared of her!!!! She looked like an extra from an alien film, and drove an old "B" reg BMW ffs! I was terrified!!! Anyway, I thought to myself "just be nice and play it by ear, but your obviously not getting yout nat king like intended" which is what I did. We went to a pub across the road called the Slug and Lettuce, and ordered some drinks. I was about 3 or 4 pints in and drinking like a man that thought beer was about to go out of fashion as I was so fekked off, and scared she would rape me! Anyway, she said to me that she needed the loo and could I watch her bag for her (I think that was to make sure I didn't run away, but I had other idea's as I could see the entrance to the tube station from the pub ) When she went to the loo, I left her bag on her chair (which had been buckled by her humungous weight) and absolutely freekin legged it like my life depended on it before she got back. I ran down the stairs/escalator like a man possessed, knocking kids and women out of the way in the process (I swear to god if I was Brazilian with a rucksack I'd have been shot!) and jumped on a train back to Kings Cross to get the fek outta there. I was still bricking it until the train arrived expecting her to peek her fat head around the corner and hunt me down, I felt like a Star Wars character on the run from Jabba the Hut! I eventually made it to Kings Cross and I hadn't been able to get a signal on my mobile until I came over ground again, and I had something like 15 texts come thru at once telling me she was going to hunt me down etc, and so I called her just to find out who the photo she sent to me was, and it turns out it was her sister. She wasn't too chuffed when I asked for her sisters number What a waste of a trip to London, but lesson well and truly learned!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 25th Feb 2006. Scottish Cup Quarter Final. Hearts 2-1 Partick Thistle Me and Josh (NYC-Hearts on here) met up to watch the game at Nevada Smiths. Got pished. Bear in mind the game started at 9am here. I was there about 8.30am. Some time around noon/1pm ish I staggered out the bar. I have only vague memories from this point onwards, although I claim I remember it like it was yesterday. I made my way to Penn Station. **** knows how, for all I know I took a flying carpet piloted by Achmed. Whatever. Achmed was cool. I have some recollection of the journey home. There was singing involved. There were patronising smirks from Americans who thought I was "cute" for singing "soccer" songs. Mickey Weirs arse was up for rent several times. I spotted this cute blonde chick, and decided that there was no way she could resist me, as I was an adonis at this point. I sat next to her, and spoke/slurred/slavered to her for a while. Next thing I know, it's the day after. My mouth feels like a nuns *****, and all of a sudden I remember with a horrible sunken feeling that I was trying to chat up this bird. What a tit. Later that day, I need to call someone from work, and I notice a strange number in my phone. I realise it's her, and she gave me her number. I call her, arrange to meet her, and 2 and half years later we're still going strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
