Egluntyne Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Sorry to boast up my own thread but wondered if Eglutyne has had her mystery card yet from a couple she doesnt know? I couldn;t find it on search. Last year I laughed so much at this thread and the one re said card I thought the newbies might like a giggle. Mods please feel free to swap threads if you know its title. Douggie and Janice? Not yet! If fact we didn't get one from them last year so they must have pruned their list - or they are Omleteeers and have taken the huff after reading about themselves here! We have had our annual braggogram from a friend of Him Indoors though. Full of nauseating guff about their perfect lives and perfect children, grandchildren and holidays. I must send it to that bloke who publishes them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I am waiting for our annual missive from Singapore too, although they may have taken huff when I emailed them to explain (yet again) that I am no longer married to X, and in fact divorced him 13 years ago!

Plum Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I can't believe people have so many holidays and measure their lives by them or that the children are so interesting and accomplished. Must have heard me mumbling I don't get as many Post must be slow DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Egluntyne, you do you know anyone with the surname Jamieson or Fotheringhame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Jameson yes, Jamieson, no and Fotheringhame - I don't think I'm posh enough to know anyone of that name. What makes you enquire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Jameson yes, Jamieson, no and Fotheringhame - I don't think I'm posh enough to know anyone of that name. What makes you enquire? I found a brother and sister called Douggie and Janice (or, more specifically, I think I found their mother. She had had two surnames, so I wasn't sure which of the two surnames might belong to the children. But having read the thread properly now, I'm sure it is an elaborate hoax.

Alis girls Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Our manager love him has failed to grasp the meaning of Chrimbo. Today a colleague showed me the card she had given him. Her greeting was written under the blurb and he had written a greeting in the same card on the back of the picture. She was incandescent with rage. I just laughed so much it made her worse My card came back to me in the same condition I shall call him Scrooge to protect his identity.

The Dogmother Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 He probably has a warped sense of humour, or is just recycling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Yes he said he was recycling. Cut no ice with my colleague. She was spitting feathers However I did point out his cardboard Starbucks coffee cup - he could recycle - its always dumped in ordinary bin so he should be consistant. I think hes a Scrooge.
