Well....I think the panel seem to be a lot better.....and liking Gary Barlow very much (he is way too good looking). They seem to be only putting through people who can on the whole sing though (which makes a change).


Will be interesting to see what they are like at the mentoring stage. I think Kelly Rowland is going to be really good. She'll make them work hard.

Nice post Nette; you nailed it, you made it your own, that's what this forum is all about, you owned the thread, when I first saw the thread title I thought oh-oh... but then you really delivered, and people wonder if this forum has any validity in the modern world - well I'd just tell them to read that post, you had this whole forum on its feet, I've read threads like this a million times but that was really something special, I'm looking forward to seeing more posts in the coming weeks - you're going through to Lond -oops!

That about sums up how I feel maxxi though I don't watch the show. Nette is a class act. Did I ever tell you someone once said they thought I was like Louis. I was somewhat confused until it was explained to me it wasn't Jungle Book Louis. LOL


Huh.....just checked up on what I'd written. Better avoid that in future.



lol It's original definition was "Laughing out loud" (also written occasionally as "Lots of Laughs"), used as a brief acronym to denote great amusement in chat conversations.


Now, it is overused to the point where nobody laughs out loud when they say it. In fact, they probably don't even give a shit about what you just wrote. More accurately, the acronym "lol" should be redefined as "Lack of laughter."


Depending on the chatter, its definition may vary. The list of its meanings includes, but is not limited to:

1) "I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this conversation."

2) "I'm too lazy to read what you just wrote so I'm typing something useless in hopes that you'll think I'm still paying attention."

3) "Your statement lacks even the vaguest trace of humor but I'll pretend I'm amused."

4) "This is a pointless acronym I'm sticking in my sentence just because it's become so engraved into my mind that when chatting, I MUST use the meaningless sentence-filler 'lol.'"

I know, i'm brilliant.


But sorry to say ( as you're somewhat behind the curve ) I can't take you through to the next round.


So it's back to your day job fitting tyres and shock absorbers at Kwik-Fit.

p.s. I know you're watching really & if moos digs the show/thread, then the world is okay with me .

Dear northlondoner, if you're going to post snobbish comments about vulgar telly you really ought to spell paean correctly. Of course it's garish, hypocritical, sentimental, manipulative, totally fixed crap! That's its charm. If you eat a kebab, you can't complain it's not a fillet steak.


Love

Moos (oik)

2. Suffering or distress of a geordie.

3. paeans The pangs of geordie childbirth.

4. paeans Great care or effort on behalf of geordie: take paeans with one's work.

5. Informal A source of annoyance; a nuisance.

      Cleaning up old Harvester

      By teetomthomas · Posted

      Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By malumbu · Posted

      Back to my earlier post about familiarity.  I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations.  Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street.  Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun.  Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough.  How wrong was I?  Only real pub left in the area.

      Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
