Laura to Tim "You're Timmy, like the dog in the Famous Five"

Rich: So I can stamp boobs and ... boobs
Emily: Yes you can stamp boobs and bottoms
Rich: You can leave the bottoms. I just want boobs

Oh and I called Sean the most lovable bastard I know and Rory then said "#!$& you. Sweetie" trying to be a lovable bastard too.

I can't remember anymore that would work in this thread but some people said some truly lovely things to me. I was just so heart glad and happy that it seems like a blur :D

"Was he Aussie?" Lou asked me after I hugged some guy.
"I...don't know," I replied, because, strangely enough, I thought she meant "Was his name Ozzy?"
"That should be the first thing you notice!!"

I just remembered Amanda telling me the origins of Matthew being called David

"I thought if I remembered he looked like David Tennant I would remember he was called Matthew but instead I called him David"

I am also really touched by the rest of what Amanda said to me. It was really special. :)

Followed by "Well I don't think you should really be hugging Collingwood fans......" (He was wearing a Magpies scarf. If you follow AFL and don't like Collingwood, it's a damn good quote. It made me chuckle anyway. Tom just looked confused still, coz he still thought I thought it was Ozzy Osbourne....) :lol:

Sean and I breached all urinal etiquette and were discussing that in the loo - we were confused because we're not girls. We wouldn't sit down and have a chat or wait for someone as they... finished up....

We decided they must be sex seats

Only reason to have seats in the loo - its hardly a spectator's sport....

Kate AG told me a great little story about her Christmas party at her new work, an outing to an ice-skating rink, where someone had told everyone she was a brilliant ice-skater (she's not). And when she saw some guy she knew and went to say hello, her new work-mates assumed she'd pulled.

Not immediately quotable though... :-/

The only actual quote I can remember was Holly's: "There but for the love of Neville go I... *paused, bemused expression* I don't even know anyone called Neville..."

This wasn't on the day itself, but on the Sunday, but there were 2 joinees present and it's my type of quote so I'm putting it here anyway:

(context: we were looking at flags in camden)
Not-the-boy: I have a great flag. My flag made Michael Schumacher crash and break his leg!

:lol: Best. Flag. EVER.

I was really worried all the way to the end of that sentence.
