Guest nubes Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 My good lady is very understanding of my love for the scene, its her friends that cause the problems. They all subscribe to the notion that ladies dance round the handbags while the blokes prop up the bar and talk about manly things and leer. They cannot understand how I can be out all night in mixed company and not be on the pull. Because of their sad lives they try and put ideas into my wifes head about what I may get up to, luckily she ignores them but I imagine this is a problem for a lot of us. Do you know, i had exactly the same problems when i started going around with Wulfie, a couple of my neighbours actually wait up to see what time we might return, and i actually had one of the neighbours telling the other mothers in her coven that i often go out with another man and don't return till morning, I wonder what they would make of the fact if they knew that Rob had cooked Wulfie a dinner to take home after we came back from the Manchester niter last year ,What sad shallow empty lives some sad empty pathetic people lead eh,never mind while they are still talking about me, at least i'm still entertaining !!!!

Del x We've got a problem closer to home Del. Our families can't understand how come Dean lets!!!! me out on my own and visa versa.... They think it's pushing our luck letting each other out in mixed company......Well we've managed to make 20+ years so far.....so...
Geoff Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Since I lost Lesley my neighbours encourage me to go out to my "music" nights. They are really sweet. I took my oldest mate and his wife to the Blue Skies night for Lesley in September, she loved it, wished her back would permit her to dance. Not so sure he liked it though. His musical taste runs to classical music now, and he really knows his stuff. I've tried to explain Northern to colleagues, but I can tell they think I am a bit weird going out "clubbing" at my age (LOL). I showed them a DVD I've got of the last night of the CSC with me doing my stuff, reduced them to hysterics. I often pass music files to a black guy in my office who likes current R&B and soul, but can tell he finds 60s stuff a bit old fashioned, however he called Out On The Floor good time music. An earlier comment about us being members of a cult is probably correct. Soul music is my religion, hearing the music always lifts my spirits, while often simultaneously reducing me to tears. Work that one out.

I know of a least 2 returnee soulboys or at least they would be if their wives were more secure in themselves,both wives have asked me to stop emailing their hubbies about soul dos although the request came from both these men!!! God, if thats what you have to do to keep a man, dont say much for self confidence eh?? Del x
Jordirip Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 A mate of mine once commented that it's like a gay scene full of men with short cropped hair and checked shirts. He was pissed off as he was on the pull (for a woman). Jordi
