@Gman

there was a lad onto me recently about doing a parachute jump for chairty. needed to raise 400 quid at a minimum to do it, and I asked how much would it cost to just do a parachute jump. he said it was about the same, but that he’d get to this for free. so I told him to fook right off. ‘but its for charity’. he didnt know the charity and ended up admitting he couldnt give a shite about whatever charity it was or how much went to it, but as long as he got his free jump he didnt care.

That wrecks my head alright. I know a person who used to be a friend who went around and got all the money together from people. The day came for the parachute jump and she didnt do it because she was told the weather wasn’t suitable. The jump was re-arranged for another day. In the meantime she announced on facebook that her flat was broken into and all the money was stolen and she was gutted blah blah fookin blah. Three months later she’s on a flight to the states for a 3 month working holiday. :guns:
Thankfully I never coughed up a cent for her as I found the whole idea ridiculous.

Missed this post earlier but I tend to agree with Clarkey and Tinnion quite strongly. I have no qualms supporting a worthwhile charity undertaking by a friend / acquaintance but I find these ‘give me money for my flights please’ instances wrong. They can always work with charities in their local area if they don’t have the funds to travel to the exotic location these charitable activities are invariably taking place in.

I have an update on this appeal for donations.

Apparently it is all for medical supplies, food and general aid for the starving people in Africa. Also I wouldn’t consider Africa an exotic location!

I take it you don’t know what exotic means.

[farmerinthecity]

Exotic has connotations in my mind of being related to pleasant hot locations with white sand and hot tanned birds in bikinis strutting along the beach.

:lol: You cant just make up your own definition of the word. When I hear the word exotic I immediately think of particles.

Strange one this, I know what to do but feckin tempting none the less…

Had to go up to head office there yesterday for a scheduled meeting. There was a new bird in the finance department, turns out she’s a girl I saw for a while (around 5 months) years ago, mid 90’s. I broke up with her at the time because I was moving abroad for the summer and then to Dublin to College in the autumn so I saw no need to be tied to a bird when on the J1/getting out of the South East. She took the break up well enough and we departed with one last shag. Left it at that, some contact when I came home but didn’t go back for anything physical until eventually I started going out with someone on a serious basis and the phonecalls stopped from her.
So I arrive up to head office and there she is. I have to go into the meeting so the meet and greet is brief but I catch up with her at the first break. She’s married with 2 kids and now living in the Pale and I exchange info about Ben/Jerry/Derbhla blah blah blah. She then tells me the name of her first born, a boy, same name as me; said she always liked the name and said it with a smile that I recognise from when we were going out which meant I was on for a release of the man-juice. FFS! What am I to take from that. And I don’t have a particularly random name like James or Sean or John so no coincidence. Plus the mails have started from her now. Like I said, I’m not going to do anything, not into the cheating, but by Jesus she was a cracker in the bed, great tits and the 2 kids haven’t wrecked the chassis too much. I could have stayed going out with her but she was the settling type which at the time I wasn’t interested in.
I know that the good people here on TFK will give me the advise I need.

This post should do wonders for caoimhaoins faith in marriage, birds, and wedded bliss.

The fact you are even mentioning it on here means you have it in your head to do her.

If he has it in his head to do her, the last thing he should do is mention it here. Given in the info in that post and what we could already glean about Locke it wouldn’t be hard for someone like TRE or Dunph (who have previous in this with caoimhaoin) to track him down.

Run a mile Locke, tisn’t worth it no doubt how tight he looks.

I think a facebook/linkedIn link is going to be the only way to sort this

Good thinking batman. Locke, when you’re ready. I’m even willing to take a PM.

I don’t understand what the issue is here.

Are you worried that the kid might be yours?

Are you tempted to try and ride her - although you are seeming to rule that out?

Shes married your married. Tap in.
Be different if she was single or something.

I’m only going on what I was told Dunph.

Locke, I think verse two of Bruce Springsteen’s Glory Days deals with this issue pretty well. Check it out.

Ireland isn’t that big. I guarantee she knew you worked for the company. Whether she sought a job there is up for debate. Some bunny boiler shit is possible though. Run away.
