Hi, Keep seeing in messages 'lol', as I am new to GR and messages what does it mean folks? Am I just being dim?

Usually it's a case of just going for the 'odd one'. Which can be anything from 1, 3, 5, 7, etc!!! Tracey

Yes, my husband uses "just one more" to mean "I'll be there till they throw me out. He also uses time in the same way. Our children groan when he replies to "how long" with "soon" . "Soon" means when you have nagged me half the week. nell

im sorry guys it doesnt only apply for pints, it also applies for glasses of wine, when i say im gonna go for 1 then its 3-4 if its a couple then its 6-7, and going for a few is 'come on lets get slaughtered!!!!'

Paul if we didn't drag you with us how would we know if ours bums looked big in it??? and there is another reason if we go alone and find 2 dresses we like one costing £30 and one costing £60, we will get the cheaper one, cos we feel guilty/cannot justify/haven't got the money but if we drag you round 10 shops in two hours making sure the most expensive dress is in the last shop, by that time you are so sick & tired YOU offer to pay for it Dave Kev/terry & you would get on well, He hasn't reached the 21st century yet either lol Bev
