Hi everyone, do you already play this game?
I saw the "strange crushes" thread, and it reminded me of the game we used to play monday morning coffee break in my first job after leaving school, early eighties. Us younger girls always picked who we most wanted to snog - Rob Lowe and the rest of the brat pack used to crop up a lot. One of the more mature ladies used to ponder on a couple of names but always went back to her old favourite Demis Roussos. I was the youngest and quite shy at the time, but some of the things the middle aged ladies used to come out with would still make me blush now!
No rules except that you can't choose your husband/partner. You can change your mind as often as you like and polygamy only allowed on special occasions.
My choice for today - Miles Jupp - he has a wicked laugh, and i'm feeling tired and weary today so i'm in the mood for someone cuddly and comfortable to snuggle up to.
-
Gordon Ramsay for me :bed: :-* love that man :-* :-*
Hope my hubby doesn't see this ;D
-
Good choice Penguin, sensible to pick someone who can cook you dinner as well as ?? whatever else it is you want him for!
-
The thought of never having to cook again is heaven, but having it cooked by a gorgeous man is even more heavenly. :D
Not saying my husband isn't gorgeous ;D but he never cooks ;D
-
Hey Teresa, don't take that word "marry" too seriously. It's more of a "who do you want hanging around your house for a few days" for whatever obscure reason you like. Reality doesn't come into it at all.
-
My husband :-* who cooks, cleans, is good at DIY ........ there are 3 blokes who I would trust my Life with as well as DH. 3 that are public figures so won't mention them but F1 is involved :-X
Now ........... that's reality out of the way. Robert Wagner, sadly no longer with us.
-
Chris Martin for me,then I'll divorce him and have Johnny Depp ;D
-
My husband ............... >:( :-*.
-
:na: I don't read Rules, can you tell ::)
-
"I don't even want to share a house with a man for a few days thanks but they can do some diy" -That's ok Teresa, you can keep him in the shed if you like, just let him out when you want something done. Anthony Head?? The one in the coffee adverts? Is he known for his diy skills?
CLKD, no, you can't marry your husband, but you can just can keep him in a box under the bed for a few days til you divorce Robert.
-
Anthony Head
Was kept in the shed
He was brilliant in Merlin
But better in bed
;) ;D
Brilliant .... and so quick too
By the way, it doesn't have to be a man, or even a real person. anything's ok for this one
-
No room under the bed, not even in the blanket box ;D
Lee Mead
-
Blanket boxes are 2 put blankets in ;)
-
Noone. Don't believe in it. 🤷♀️
-
:rofl:
-
Jil SAYS that,it's just that no-one wants to marry her though ;D love ya Jill 🏃🏼♀️
-
I did it because in the 1960s/70s it was expected. We wanted to live together and miss out the service so as parents were keen for us to wed, I insisted on a Church Service of which I remember very little ::). The irony being is that Mum took up with a man who 6 weeks later moved into Dad's bed >:(. This is a woman who slagged everyone who was 'living in Sin'.
Still Lee Mead - he will be able to awaken me with a song and lull me to sleep with a lullaby :-*
-
Jon Bon Jovi. Every day. Don't care what mood I'm in 😂
-
I've left a trail of men behind me who have BEGGED me to marry them, it was just all my demands that made them run off! 🤣😂 their loss! 😂 🤭🤭🤭
I'd have a quickie with Liam Hemsworth. Dressed as Thor if possible. 😜🤣
-
No one for me.
They take far too long to train. ;D
-
Hmmmm today??
Elijah Wood 8)
-
Hmmmmm - was he a Hobbit ?
Lee Mead's voice is sore so it's off to find Michael Ball
-
If he were still around, it would definitely be Paul Newman... :bed:
Jeepers xx
-
Oh those Blue Eyes Jeepers [but he didn't wear well ;-)]
-
I'd like to marry Cain Dingle :great: I love a man who speaks his mind (swoon!) ;)
-
Shadyglade 😂😂😂 you’re right there. Even so it would be John Hamm for me (weekends only) x
-
I’d marry DH again! I wasn’t going to get married, but DH snuck up and slowly changed my mind. 40 years later this month.
-
Well done JuJu. Happy Anniversary. 🥳🥳
I've been with my OH, 36 years now. Don't know where it's gone.
-
Where what's gone exactly jillydoll ............ :-X
DH top of my list but was told that he isn't allowed .......
-
Her life clkd ;D only joking,they're a lovely couple :)
-
All those years. You turn around and your middle aged! :'(
Ditto Jaypo. :-*
-
Best place for most blokes I think, in the cupboard under the stairs. :rofl:
-
That's where Jill keeps her spare one ;D
-
:vibe: he only comes out on special occasions. 🥳🤣😂🤣😂
-
I’ll lend you my DH, who considers one of his roles as a husband is to make me tea and then check to see if I’ve remembered to drink it!
-
Hhmm , rent-a-husband ...now that's an idea....an hour a day ought to do it!
-
Omg trust you Jill ;D
-
:vibe: he only comes out on special occasions. 🥳🤣😂🤣😂
Well, that's something that was never mentioned by those middle aged ladies i worked with in the 80's!!
-
I’ll lend you my DH, who considers one of his roles as a husband is to make me tea and then check to see if I’ve remembered to drink it!
My hubby is exactly the same!
Still Gordon Ramsay, he could make me a lovely dinner with a nice drink, then I'd have to thank him afterwards :bed: :jiggy:
;D
-
;D ;D naughty penguin99 ;D
-
I know :-X I should be ashamed.
But I'm not ;D ;D
-
Good for you girl ;D
-
Still DH :-* ;D
I never had pin-up posters on my wall like my sister and cousins did. The Beatles, Stones etc. went by me until the Monkeys arrived ;D, followed by The Hollies :-* :-* ......
It would need to be a man who can cook, put up shelves and paint walls - all at the same time ;D
-
I'm happy doing my own cooking and decorating, it's the housework i have a problem with. Husband does way more dusting and hoovering than me, and when i've made a mess in the kitchen, i know i can wander off for a while and when i get back it's all washed up and cleared away. It took a few years but I think i've got him pretty well trained now.
I'm divorcing Miles Jupp now, i want Nick Cave instead. He's going to sit on the floor my side of the bed and sing to me, Love Letter and Jesus of the Moon, while i drift off to sleep.
-
I had posters on my wall of horses...........says a lot ;D
-
Lol!! I had George Michael and Michael Jackson! ??? ;D
Today, i think i would marry.....Jake from The Deadliest Catch :P
-
Well you definitely picked two wrong uns Vikki ;D ;D
Oh, I like the blonde guy from deadliest catch,ages since I watched it,the Norwegian sounding name one
-
Hi Jaypo! I think i did! But i also had Madonna and Marilyn Monroe, so evens out.
Sig i think you mean.
-
Yes,that's the fella,something about him ::)
-
Today, i would "marry" paul rudd :-*
-
Gary Oldman. Phrrr. 😜
-
I'm marrying Colin Farrell today
-
Ooooo Gary Oldman is a good one! :D
-
;D
I always said that if I had a Winter wedding I would wear white with a deep magenta cape with rabbit fur round the edges, bit 'Christmas with Bing' type - white wellies fur lined. The girls would wear deep magenta dresses with white capes .......... carrying seasonal greenery.
We choose August - it was easier than finding season greenery ;D
-
You can't Jay. I'm marrying him. :sigh:
-
? who ?
-
Oh ok Jill,anyway I've changed my mind,I'm having him off the dolce & gabana advert phwaaarr
-
He's hardly out of short trousers though jaypo ...........

-

Oh yes, he's fed and watered, and sings Wuthering Heights to me occasionally, when I've released him for his duties. 🤣😂
Colin Farrell? I thought we were talking about Colin Firth. 🤣😂
Too many Colins about for my liking me thinks. 🤣😂
-
I’m pretty sure theres enough Tom to go round! There has to be!! :o
-
She'll NEVER let him go Vikki,you'll have to go to Jill's cupboard under the stairs ;D
-
A bit like Harry Potter? 🤔
Oooooooooo!! My young crush is Daniel Radcliffe, when he’s grown up of course! When he was in Horns.......
That’s my morning taken up now 😆
See ya around Tom 💖
-
Grrrrrr..... men!! stupid, annoying idiot men......
So i'm off men today, need someone cute and funny and female. Claudia Winkleman maybe?
-
Noooooo befuddled,not with THAT fringe ;D
-
I could let him go for an hour or too, vikkip, but don't wear him out.
I've plans for him. 😜😜
Dermot O'Leary, on a free weekend maybe. 😆
-
Yeah, good point Jaypo, so plan B - Sarah Millican
-
Benedict Cumberbatch....if he's not available, Tom Hiddleston will do just fine. ;)
-
Today, Rob Bell, engineer and adventurer!! :-*
-
Is he the really fit one who ran loads of marathons? Not sure you could keep up with him. Be fun to try though!
-
Matthew Mcconaughey today,saw him in a film last night...phew,he brought on a hot flush ;D
-
Hi Befuddled, don’t know about marathons, but he does walking abandoned railways, and hes on abandoned engineering ;D
I now follow him on instergram lol!!

I've just seen the Jacamo advert and I'm having all three of those men,now THATS MY Christmas sorted ;D
-
That’s very greedy Jaypo :o
-
Oh ok LM you can have ONE of them ;D
-
Ha ha! When i think of Jacamo i think of Jonny Vegas! He used to advertise them years ago, i am guessing he is not one of the three ;D
I dunno who for me today? Not really feeling very sexy, i'm more in love with my new lamp :o ;D
-
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ;D ;D
-
Ooooh! Vikki, what kind of lamp? Where do i get one?
-
A turkish lamp, Evil Eye - Durham, they are online too :)
-
Just had a look. Very nice. I've got a bit of a thing about lamps. If i had the choice - Rob Bell or one of those? Definitely the lamp.
-
Haha so did I take a look,omg,they're beautiful lamps,can see why you'd give up men for one of them ;D
-
Dare I say..............Robert Downey Jr, .....😜😜😍😍
I'll oil his metal bits any day of the week! 🤣😂
-
Ha Ha! Poor Rob! ;D
I wouldn't give up men forever, just during the winter, when my lamp is on ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Poor Rob alright,she'll half kill him ;D
-
Michael Ball
-
Ha ha Jaypo!! ;D ;D And i thought i was the horniest woman in the world ;D
-
Hahaha, I'd be very gentile with him.
I wouldn't put my oil can anywhere he didn't want it........promise. 😏 🤣😂🤣
-
No no vikki,you haven't met Jill ;D
Love you jillywilly ;D
-
😜😜😜
-
Bob Mortimer. Just been watching him on tv. There's just something about him. A kind of cuddliness and he always makes me chuckle.
-
Yes I agree befuddled. Just wish he was taller tho. 😆🤷♀️
-
But this isn't reality, so we can make him whatever height we like, can't we?
-
Oh in that case Prince
-
Oh right, well I'll go for Danny Divito then. 🤣😂
-
Right....Peter Dinklage then......beat that one ;D
