Yep that’s the letch, Loopy. Was also the older guy in all those 1960’s Doctor films trying to make an impression (ho ho) on the young nurses.
I need to go and do a little more NHS research for the on going ‘socialised’ medicine debate….……Now where did I put that ‘moody’ stethoscope……

My fav catchphase is **Ding Dong** but he’s probably best known for…
“You’re an absolute **shower**!!”
(from the film ‘Calton-Browne of the FO’ and other similarly wondeful nonsense)

It also sounds like you have quite a few interests and/or opinions in common to be able to talk for that long.
**imthjckaz** and I talked on the phone every night for two weeks before our first date. And we now live together. I hope things go well for you, **TwistofFate**.

“I walked her to a taxi rank”
“She asked me to ring her tonight”
Boy, I’m happy it went well for you but I haven’t a clue from these phrases what country you’re in 🙂

for the gutter minded…
“ring her” Call her on the telephone.
“walked her to the taxi rank” I escorted the young lady to a designated public service vehicle collection point.
Ding Dong!

Gee, what a lovely generalization. :rolleyes: BTW, I am 35 and am much more gracious and accepting of compliements now than I was at 20.
I really hope this was a joke.
**Twisty** , glad things went well for you.

A date?
I’m sorry, I don’t remember giving you permission to have a _date_!
(I’m glad it went well, Twisty! Here’s hoping you have lots more with this girl!)
