Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

Anyone seen the Ewen McGregor film about the tsunami, The Impossible?

Incredible film, but a hugely difficult watch emotionally.

 

Yes, many times. I will never forget the first time I watched it in the cinema.

 

Yea watched that film a while ago, liked it a lot.

 

It's very well done. Based on a true story, although the nationalities of the family have been changed.

 

The family are French if I remember correctly ...

 

Spanish I think.

 

Well I tried to kiss her, that is fairly direct I would say. However the shot was blocked on the line. We had a half-time team talk and so there's a change of tactics for the second half: slow and patient build up play which will hopefully result in me scoring

Although I'm pretty sure it's definitely out of sight, out of mind from her point of view.

So sad. To lose a child at Christmas time, even when it's expected, must be especially heartbreaking. Thoughts and prayers with his family.

 

Agreed, it really is such a a horrible thing to happen over Christmas. And at just 5 too, that's just tragic.

My friend used to work for a children's hospice, and I never went there myself, but it must have been hard at times working in a place like that. even if the hospice is fun and bright and vibrant, it's still horrible to think why the children are there

Thanks. Though she's an intelligent girl, she'll have realised that by agreeing to 'see where things go' the door is still open for being more than friends. I also asked her at the time if she was only interested in being friends and she didn't say yes. even if she was reluctant to say yes at the time, she could have easily said something since as she know's I'm still interested, so she would have said something by now if she only wanted to be friends. Right?

I'm deluding myself aren't I?

 

No, you're not necessarily deluding yourself, but you are, as usual, overanalysing the situation. She's probably just as unsure of herself as you are and doesn't want to rush into anything. Either give it time and take it easy, or back off completely and give her space.

 

PL needs a slap.

 

Have you, at any point, told her exactly how you feel?

 

I like how you can report your own posts...

 

Just had bubble and squeak .......bloody lovely.

 

At one stage you could ban yourself.

 

Not in any great detail or length. When i asked her if she was single, I kinda said I was interested in her (without directly saying it) and then during our post-attempted-kiss-convo, I did say that I really like her. That's about it

I think I have, I haven't mentioned it since and when we meet up we just chat as usual.

Sorry
