Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion

[Geo]

But it would have been better if I already knew her and was buying the statesman for my birthday El

[jacoavlu]

are you crazy!
don't call her!
you gotta play the game, toy with the lass a bit,
it's what she wants,
it's the timeless art of seduction!

[Geo]

I need to phone her . . . She's got my glasses

Anyway at my age time is of the essence . . .

If she's that keen Geo you could do a bit of negotiating.
Cheap prescriptions ?
At least you'll now if she's not just after your cool clothes 

[Geo]

so the first date starts out "Any chance of a discount on those specs . . . and why don't you like Iron Heart?"

and minutes later I am left to eat two dinners on my own . . . 

[injunjack]

I got a feeling that she is a bit more forward chick. Skip the dinner and have a bottle of wine afterwards 

[Tripleterror]

You're right, the first question is a bit of a clincher.
Just make sure she orders something you like 

[jacoavlu]

just go in and say you were checking on your specs and 'fore you leave accidentally drop this on the counter

Just don't use the conversational gambit my mate used on a date recently, "So, what browser do you prefer".

[Tripleterror]

I bet she was putty in his hands !

[hectic]

She favoured Mac/Firefox - it went well amazingly!

[Tripleterror]

note to self - 'Browser Question' 

[Geo]

guys thanks for all the great, erm . . . advice? although IJ - I'm warming to your thoughts 

jeez hectic, i really can't believe that question was asked! i've checked that out - she prefers firefox . . . I asked her friend . . . see? a LOT less embarrassing 

[Geo]

ok - so anyway think we'll need to change the subject title unless someone introduces some more eyewear

[Giles]

I knew that, didn't you know she's a member here Geo?…...........

[Geo]

really?

. . . f-ck . . .

Geo, don't play hard to get… I think most women over 30 have had more than enough of the "treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen" attitude.  If there's a chance you're gonna have some good times together, why wait?

***Mrs G gazes wistfully at the ceiling remembering the number of toads she had to kiss before she met her Prince…

[Geo]

Mrs G, as I said to jacoavlu, I can't not phone . . . she's got my bloody glasses hostage  ::)

anyway I never subscribed to the 'treat 'em mean' method that wouldn't be fair on top of all the cooking and cleaning and ironing they've got to do . . .

nope, it's all good, and no hanging about either - looking forward to whatever happens . . . I mean it'll just a nice dinner, some sparkling conversation and me frantically trying remember what comes next 

[hectic]

have a great time mate
