I'll put you at the top of my list then ,Cleopas, not I'd know who you were anyway.
I've figured I know of a couple of people on Pol but am rather shy. Even Teddygirl who I've known for years but haven't seen for a while is being spladooshed by me in a Xmas card!

(Thanks for the card TG your one is in the post)

Cheers Soupy!

You forgot Bob from the football!!! How very dare you. You also forgot Mr and Son of Epykat.

Sorry Bob

Had met Mr Epykat in the pub once before Football so included him in list. Wasn't aware Son of Epykat posted. Haven't met Epykat yet.

Thanks Soupy, I'll maybe need to pm you and tell you who a couple of people are. There are one or two that I know you definitely know.

I'm not too pleased about ali knowing who I am as he is not on my list of not mets but know to see people. I know a few people that do know him though so any of them could have pointed me out I guess.

Lemongrass was really good. Only 5 of us stayed out for a wee bit more to drink. My taxi driver home was from Porty and is a keen reader of the Schools thread

I read your "meets" and the ones in bold I have not met. You have met Bruce (who started the "getting bagged" thread as a result of your first encounter), dccairns, stephen "hawkeye" hawkins, tom nimmo, Nicky, Pal of Portys Pals Pal; and there are bound to be more. I forgot Mate Of Marya. and Jackie Brock I added Homer for good measure.

I just mentioned folk that I'd met through the forum, but, of course, should have mentioned Bruce.

Well Cleopas you didn't come bottom of Bellybabes list,you were better than me

I didn't make that list

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 10 Dec 2006, 10:12

I'm sure she didn't mean to leave you out, Izzie. Maybe she thought she did write your name ... unless you've been really bad and annoyed her for some reason. Have you, Izzie?? Have you upset Bellybabe???

Without making a list, I have not met ... anybody!!!

Maybe one day, we can fix that. As they say on the promenade ... whale sea!!!

bellybabe · Post by **bellybabe** » 10 Dec 2006, 10:33

Sorry Izzie.

As I said, I stole someone else's list, and you were on their "have met" bit, so when i deleted you form that bit, I forgot to then add you to the "yet to meet" bit. And not just you - other people too, so there'll be more offended people round here somewhere!

My most humble apologies.

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 10 Dec 2006, 11:28

See Izzie?? Now don't you feel properly ashamed for embarassing Ballybabe like that?? Silly Izzie!!! (You know they like you really, don't you?)

Not sure if I can make it K not to well just now

Or I could leave her with her dad???????????

Cleopas · Post by **Cleopas** » 11 Dec 2006, 09:23

You do that. I'm sure dad can look after K for just a couple of hours, while you get out for a much-deserved night on the tiles with the others who are going!

Just don't keep disappearing for a wii-wii ... or is that another thread entirely?

Denise · Post by **Denise** » 11 Dec 2006, 14:54

I've only lived in Porty for a couple of years.
To the best of my knowledge I've only met Rapunzell and BillyBob.
All that could be changed if someone would sell us a hoose in Porty so we weren't exiled in Leith anymore...

mr magnolia · Post by **mr magnolia** » 11 Dec 2006, 21:37

I've been in porty for two years.

I've met evryone who went on last years Christmas do plus some others.

Bellybabe was my first, although she bagged a magnoliette or two and mrs m before me.

I've met splurgh entirely via the website so I claim that as a trump card!

And I have a semi-professional connection to Denise...

Mr M, what are you trying to do to my reputation?

What a day this has been - turning gay guys straight, discovering I was Mr M's first...

It's exhausting.

I have had teddygirl pointed out to me and intend to do a spladoosh the next time I see her.

I was at the Seabeach carol concert yesterday, and was looking round suspiciously wondering if I'd spot a POLer, but everyone looked fairly normal. Although it's hard to spot anything much with tears in one's eyes.

I think people should have to wear a badge with their user name on it at all times.

Argh! Flashback to when we all met up in Porty and PoP's Emporium to celebrate the end of our Friends Reunited campaign. Porty made us all wear sticky labels stating our user names. Everyone turned and stared each time someone new opened the door and waited with bated breath to see which label was chosen

Mind you it would stop folk confusing me with Gemini which has happened on more than one occasion
