Lastnight the Football Fanatic had a night out.
On a party bus.
I once saw a television programme about a party bus, and given that her usual idea of a good night out is the high stakes table at the most upmarket casino in town, I didn't think she'd like it.
But what do I know?
At some point during the evening we had a text conversation:
FF: It's full of really old people and they're playing the Grease Megamix.
Kill me now x x
Me: You're the one that I want, you are the one I want, ooh ooh ooh honey...
FF: Leave me alone x x
Me: Go Greased Lightning you're burning up the quarter mile....
FF: When we pass the canal I may jump in x x
Me: Oh, come on, you know you want to play
FF: There are worse things I could do than go with a boy or two...x x
Me: NOT IN MY BOOK LADY!
FF: Ha! Thought that would shut you up! x x
Yet even though the evening was considered a total loss, I was quite pleased to note that she appears to have mastered the art of the put-down.
After politely discouraging the advances of a REALLY REALLY old man (about 45) who asked:
'So I haven't got a chance then?'
The Football Fanatic replied;
'Mate, you've got more chance of City winning the Champions League'.
I swear I have no idea where she learns it.

LOL she sure knows how to put a fella down! :)
Good for her! Tell the ol' bloke to keep 'is bloody paws off!
(Do you like my accent?)
You've reared a fine one! Be proud...and send me a slice of bread!
My favourite bit is when Sandy first sees Danny at school and says 'Danny?' ... he hoiks up his collar and says 'yeah, that's my name ... don't wear it out' trying to look really cool.
My smalls have made me sit through that film more times than I care to mention.
As for FF ... she's learned at the side of a master, obviously ;-) x
Oh yes! She is a chip off the old block. And I use the term "old" loosely. According to FF I am old. Hah!
But she does a good put down. ;0)
Great job of bringing her up to look after herself!
I hope to bring my girls up to be so fine and able to take care of themselves when mom isn't around! Great job! :)
Excellent put down - but how come she was on a party bus in the first place?
Actually, do they have any that show "The Great Escape" or "Goal!"? And that don't let young people in?
If not, that might end up being peoples' holidays next year if the markets implode: perhaps we should get in there quick!
I wonder how she'd like Xanadu ...
