It's gorn quiet!Can't be having that now
Just wondering something - yesterday after rehearsal CMN said that the new Irn Bru advert with the goths reminded him of me......now I'm a bit  really as I never thought I was anywhere near gothlike (even a smiling one!)
Please tell me it's just him being his usual insane self cos I don't think I can afford all the make-up 
Although it's probably not really helping my cause that I've just downloaded an album called In Sorte Diaboli (and I'm thoroughly enjoying it thanks - for some reason I find it very relaxing) 
To make this not completely pointless - don't forget it's rehearsal at 6 on Thursday....I might even manage to march in a straight line this time! Bloody piccolo...so much easier to march with a clarinet

Erm - well - actually, when I met you in the good old US of A I did think at first that you were a tad goth-esk. I noticed coz I am a closet pagan but I have to scrub up in posh stuff for work and at 'home' as I live in the mess. | ||

Maybe it's my air of cheerfulness that gives off a goth vibe then she says sitting at work wearing a floor-length black skirt, black & white top and black jacket.....ok, maybe he has a point!
I shall be a goth who likes ABBA then

You do like wearing black...but that's about as near as you get I reckon

Maybe a look through your record (or CD) collection might reveal the hidden Goth in you!
Here's a brief checklist: UK Decay X-mal Deutschland Play Dead March Violets 1919 Ritual Leitmotiv In Excelsis Or maybe the more commercial Goth stuff: Sisters of Mercy Rosetta Stone Fields of the Nephilim Skeletal Family Bauhaus The Mission All About Eve The Cult Or the Alternative/Industrial stuff Goths liked: Death In June Frontline Assembly Front 242 Killing Joke The Bolshoi Or the Post Punk and chart friendly: Siouxsie and the Banshees The Cure Or even the teeny Goth stuff like: Marylin Manson Cradle of Filth |

I've heard of the last four, but I have not a scoobie regarding the others.

You obviously never went to Scathe!
A group of around seven of us were THAT (>|<) close at getting arrested for fly-posting the forthcoming Goth night (Scathe) all down Commercial Rd. very early one morning back in about 1991 - we all had posters, brushes and glue with us, but the Police bid us a good morning and a safe journey home! And how come nearly all Scots I know or speak to like Siouxsie? |

| bootybandy |
Who you calling Scots????????
I'm a Bay CIty Roller fan myself....

Well, here's a couple of Glaswegian Goth gurrals:

Bless your wee excitable cotton socks (or are those my ones?)

I may have listened to the above at some point through the last 10-12 years or so.....but that doesn't make me a goth cos I also listen to ABBA quite a lot and other definitely non-scary stuff!  And there's none of it on my iTunes cos I think I got rid of most of those cds years ago (other than my Dimmu Borgir ones cos I still can't get enough of them) Also randomly I'm a little addicted to www.hardrockin80s.com

Hi GF. I realy must try not to let just anything out of my head.
You're no Goth - it was the image of frown turned upside down by a can of drink that somehow triggered the link. Keep smilling. 
|

| ANTS |
you wouldn;t be you if you didn't let things out of your head....second thoughts you'd burst...

OOoooo,

It's lunchtime, I'm bored and I've just found out that some anagrams of my name are Lone Hedgehog Pouts & Good Telephones Hug which pleases me no end.....
...and there's less than 4 hours of sitting at this goddamn desk to go before I can escape and not come back til Wednesday *woohoo* |
||
| windypipes |
Still bored? | ||
| greenfairy |
yup | ||
| ANTS |
You beat me GF...I don't escape the office till thursday and then I'm in sunny scotland for the weekend...well I hope its gonna be sunny!!! | ||
| Wee Mac McDrums |
GF- I think that 'Lone hedgehog pouts' realy suits you, but 'Good telephones hug' not as much.
This means you are a face to face and 'hands on' person, rather than someone who does thing on an impartial level. Hope you have got rid of most of my fairy dust ;) |
||
| greenfairy |
I bow to your wisdom as always Mac my dear. The hedgehog thing is also apt as I tend to get prickly when upset too...but you wouldn't know that as it's always solved by beer!
As for the fairy dust, my life is once more lacking in that department....it remains to be seen whether that's a good or bad thing. |

| Gromit |
How can 'Lone Hedgehog Pouts & Good Telephones Hug' be an anagram of Greenfairy (te he) 
|
||
| greenfairy |
Using the name of my alter-ego of course! 
|
||
| pussycat |
An Alter Ego: dresses up in white and gets taken up the isle? |
||
| greenfairy |
which one...Skye? | ||
| greenfairy |
I've just learnt a new skill - I managed to get a bag of microwave popcorn to catch fire.
Admittedly, that wasn't what I was aiming for....I wanted the tasty popcorn goodness to accompany me while I'm watching some Sharpe dvds but never mind. GF is quite possibly having a rather sh!te day

| greenfairy |
Meh, after the day I've had today I'm just glad to be still smiling! | ||
