Just been reading back to the end of the last thread. Wow, another new thread - it was a bit of while coming, this one. Sorry, Stephy, you missed the boat.

Well done, Annie. First post for the first time - that's eluded me forever.
Just bringing this song over from the last thread - the Bonnie Raitt song Joyce mentioned - this is a link to Adele singing it. I know it's sad but it's a beautiful, beautiful song. I think maybe we can all identify with the words in relation to someone in our lives at sometime or other.

Ali re my back: Thank you - haha - the irony of giving me good advice in a PM about it while at the same time telling me to get off my lappy

Have got a doctor's appointment this morning - couldn't believe it - usually have to book your illnesses at least 2 weeks in advance.
Other thoughts on the night talk:
Annie The advice from the sleep clinic is obviously doing you no good at all

You obviously didn't tell them about the JJJAT at all - AT ALL
Re: boys and girls in BB. Haven't a clue about what has been going on in BB - only enjoy reading the snippets you all bring over from time to time - some more than others LOL.
But a story from daughter who, as you know, has just started uni.
She has been making loads of friends, mostly guys, because as I said she gets on much better with them because she knows where she is with them, even if she doesn't always like the knowing.
Yesterday she told me a story about a guy at uni: her initial comment - he's being such a girl and I'm being such a guy


He was just one of a crowd of people she's friends with but he obviously liked her but she didn't encourage him. He wanted her to go out with him one evening but she'd already arranged to meet up with a couple and have a quiet evening watching a DVD with them and wanted to continue not encouraging him. He immediately assumed she was lying and was going out with another guy, went out, got drunk, kissed another girl, texted her endlessly through the night, saying he was sorry, he hadn't meant to do it etc etc. And she is, like

And now other guys who she's become friends with in this crowd - just mate friends - are saying she's being unfaithful to him - even though she WAS watching a DVD with a couple - a girl and a guy - and a relationship wasn't even a twinkle in her eye or even planned to be. Oh, the dramas, the dramas. He was texting her saying how sorry he was that he'd messed things up, blah, blah, blah.
Sorry for filling up post space with this but after reading about BB in the night, I thought this was interesting. The stereotypes are breaking down and have been for a long time. Or maybe it just goes to prove that there really are no stereotypical guys and gals - they are just individual human beings with their own wants and needs, their own perspectives on life, their own ways of dealing with life's challenges.
