Re: Today I'm neither Angry nor Happy about....
My sister was trying to set my brother up with a friend of hers the other day, she told my mum about the plan and Mum had a nosey on her new iphone at this girls facebook profile. Clearly she had not quite worked out how to use the iphone or facebook and she accidentally added this girl as a friend. The facebook account is in my dads name, she doesn't have her own. So it now looks as if my 63 year old dad is befriending young 20 something girls he doesn't know...Worthy4England wrote:I don't use Facebook much, but on one occasion, I sent a friends request to someone I thought I knew - indeed the name was right. It wasn't until logging on the next day that I realised it was the wrong person. I'm now "friends" with a rabid Bluenose Brummie...
Just bizarre.

When my brother found out he was not best pleased, especially after he was trotted out to meet this young lady at my sisters birthday party with friends and family watching on...

I shite you not, I've just, within the past few minutes, received a friends request from some lad in Morecambe. We have one mutual friend. This chap lists as his former school one in Lancaster where my mate used to teach. That is all. WTF?

Re: Today I'm neither Angry nor Happy about....
Got a friend request from a very young female on an American literature forum (she has one of those 14 year old boy bands as her avatar
) . Seems highly intelligent, plays several instruments and sings. At my age who'd believe literature as a shared interest? Told the wife just in case ......

Some people think that it's a competition to get the highest number of friends and will try to 'friend' anyone. That damn thing at the right that suggests friends doesn't help. If I wanted to send them a request I would! It's been a while since I had a friend request from one of those topless women though.

Have some Argos vouchers which I was going to put towards some garden furniture. That would obviously be a redhooclious procurement so I've bought a deep fat fryer instead (and some oil, and a big potato)

Miss Bish will survive..
earlier on she said "sob.. and on the day before my important maths GCSE" - to which we said, "Do it for Abbie.." and she saw the funny side!
