Did you go to Birmingham University???

[VeryBerryCherry]

Ok, so I am going to try and write this without sounding like some single white(brown) female stalker.

I have been in ED for nearly 9 months now from moving down from the Midlands.

The reason for me posting is that I keep seeing a girl in ED that I am abolutely sure I went to Birmingham University with. I know it may sound a bit batty, and Mr VBC thinks I'm utterly nuts, but she's rather distinctive(pretty) looking and I just have this feeling that I am absolutly right and it IS a girl I went to uni with.

I can't give too much away, for privacies sake. But I went to Birmingham University between 2001-2004 and studied English and Philosophy. I think this girl studied English too and maybe something else too.

Is this you?

Do you know someone who did?

... erm not sure what I am actually gonna do if I find the lady in question.

I just need to get this nagging thought out of my head before I go mad.

...and prove Mr VBC wrong ;-) (yet again)

... and apologies if this IS you and you are totally freaked out by this thread!

Oh you have foiled my plan!!!

It's not money I am after...

It's my hair straighteners. The fro is a mess!

[KalamityKel]

Oooo this is all very exciting (I'm having a dull day here having spent most of it shredding things from the '70s)

I know you don't wish to go into great detail but maybe a little bit of a description?

No really I am genuinely interested!

[VeryBerryCherry]

KK,

I don't think it's as exciting as it is creepy. Even I have to admit that. :-$

You know when something nags at you, like the name of a long forgotten band, and you cannot get on with anything else till you find the answer. I saw her a few weeks ago and I spent a day thinking I was imagining it, but then again, I was sure I wasn't because I am very good with remembering faces (crap with names). I forgot all about it, till this Sunday when I walked passed her again on LL.

She's quite tall and brown and gorgeous ringletty hair... oh god, I DO sound like a stalker. :-S

"She's quite tall and brown and gorgeous ringletty hair" - well, that narrows it down...

VBC, are you starting to think "Oh no, what HAVE I started" ? :))

[VeryBerryCherry]

I AM NOW!!! :-$

(p.s. you looked very cheery this am heading of to work)

[Michael Palaeologus]

Oh that was YOU! I was wondering why a gorgeous young woman on her way to the gymn smiled at me. That wasnt cheery that was slightly puzzled, I have only met you once and I was very drunk - in my defence.

I was thinking of starting a thread "Thanks to the lovely young lady who smiled at me this morning", now I dont have to.

Have you done the usual stalker thing of Googling your friend's name?

Very smooth, A1 for effort.

I wasn't off to the gym, though. I was off to the pie shop! Ha ha ha!

All right I'm gonna do YOU a big favour.

I'll come down tonight from The 'burbs and introduce myself to her and tell her I'm speaking on behalf of a friend,and I'll attempt to discover certain facts about her.

I'll just need some "Ex's" money-thats all..

Are we on?

[VeryBerryCherry]

Yeah >:D<

Enough for a cone of chips and a Panda Pop lemonade?

Would have gone for a tictac too personally...

[Tony.London Suburbs]

LOL!

[brum]

I'm not the person you're after VBC but as you may have guessed from my tag I too am a midlander. It's nice to know I'm not the only one! Mind you if you're mission here is like mine to convert these southerners to say 'bath' properly then you'll have your work cut out. I've been here for 10 years and they still look bemused when they hear my dulcit tones.

[Michael Palaeologus]

I am West Midlander - thankfully not a Brummie :))

Tara-a-bit Chick.

Problem is that only Southerners pronounce the imaginary "r" in the middle...;-)

[brum]

So Tony what you're saying is that they don't know their r's from their elbow? I entirely agree!

Nice to know there's almost a crowd of us now! Whereabouts in West Mids are you from Michael? Own up.

[dulwichmum]

I didn't know that they even had universities in the Midlands. Good for you!
