Does Sul have nothing to do all day long?
Posted by Sul, 09:11, 18th November 2002:
 
shit! just noticed the, rather obvious, good time Cal pun.

And in reply to Grim..., I try to do as little as possible.
Posted by cal, 09:23, 18th November 2002:
 
you could have added extra punnage in there sul. shame on you!

I got a message like that from some girl once we oviously had the wrong number - we ended up being txt pals and met up for a few drinks.

Was she a freak?
Posted by Sul, 11:12, 18th November 2002:
 
Ive just text phil.
Posted by cal, 12:09, 18th November 2002:
 
really? amybe i shouldn't have put the number up here :)

i wonder if it's a man-phil or a lady-phil
Posted by Sul, 12:30, 18th November 2002:
 
I'm guessing man-phil from the fact that he was slashed
Posted by Sul, 14:28, 18th November 2002:
 
And it sounds like he's been blown out by this bird with a similar number to you. I feel for him
Posted by cal, 14:47, 18th November 2002:
 
i was guessing the other way round to be honest
Posted by Sul, 14:54, 18th November 2002:
 
why? because he sounds pathetic?

(if he replied I was going to point to this thread but I think differently now Ive said that)
Posted by arsepuppy, 14:54, 18th November 2002:
 
Cal: Do you think he was trying to text her with that number being her number? Like the interweb text messaging thing that orange.net does? Not realising it all goes to you?

A big *tsk* goes to him I think.
Posted by Sul, 14:56, 18th November 2002:
 
actually it does sound a bit like a girl re-reading it. hmmmm.... a girl....
Posted by ilovebeerme, 15:03, 18th November 2002:
 
I think it's a girl. Definitely not a pirate.
Posted by cal, 15:04, 18th November 2002:
 
the sms was sent using my web form, so it wasn't a mistyped number

the phone number supplied was typed into the Name/Email/Phone box. they knew what they were doing in that respect
Posted by Sul, 15:08, 18th November 2002:
 
then thats just weird
Posted by Sul, 15:09, 18th November 2002:
 
I'd blame ell
Posted by chandler, 15:10, 18th November 2002:
 
did they not just think that your webform was for everyone to TXT whatever number they put in the box. Thinking it gets sent there, rather than to you?
Posted by ilovebeerme, 15:20, 18th November 2002:
 
Sounds good to me chandler. You should be Colombo. But a pirate version.
Posted by cal, 15:21, 18th November 2002:
 
a ninja version, i reakon
Posted by arsepuppy, 15:25, 18th November 2002:
 
chandler: Yeah, that's exactly what I said earlier on (webby text thingy etc)

"Cal: Do you think he was trying to text her with that number being her number? Like the interweb text messaging thing that orange.net does? Not realising it all goes to you?

A big *tsk* goes to him I think."


Except i didnt explain my theory as well :)

I really need proper English lessons. Damn North Wales' Strictly-No-English-Allowed education system! Arghh!
Posted by arsepuppy, 15:30, 18th November 2002:
 
"07817069065: hi it's phil, i am cool if you wanna........

That's why the number came up first. That's where he was trying to send it, on seeing the word "Phone" above the first text box. Aw fuckit, I give up.

Cal: a ninja version, i reakon

Oi! I'm the ninja round here!
Posted by cal, 23:25, 18th November 2002:
 
sul: i have a friend from uni called phil who used to post here. anyway, it's not him, but he has a friend called phil dolan. phil dolan's number is 07803 588 214 if you want to give him a call.
Posted by Sul, 23:43, 18th November 2002:
 
Ive asked hannah. Will tell you the answer tomorrow... and let everyone else know what's been going on.
Posted by Sul, 08:28, 19th November 2002:
 
Right, here's the run down.

The number we have been discussing belongs to a 17YO Girl named Hannah from Liverpool. Phil is her phsyco ex. Christina was an arse because she punched him twice in the face on the night mentioned. But apparently he deserved everything he got.

Cal and I jumped to conclusions and thought we knew who Phil was, neither of us were right.
Posted by cal, 08:31, 19th November 2002:
 
so it wasn't the phil who's number i posted above?
Posted by jlittle, 08:33, 19th November 2002:
 
Cool - So you started chatting Hannah up yet Sul?
Posted by Sul, 08:33, 19th November 2002:
 
Well that's not the number she has for him so I guess not.
Posted by Sul, 08:33, 19th November 2002:
 
I wasnt chatting her up. I was gaining the facts :D
Posted by jlittle, 08:35, 19th November 2002:
 
I was only asking - your getting rather defensive now...
Posted by cal, 08:36, 19th November 2002:
 
hehehe. have you asked her for the number she has for "phil"?
Posted by Sul, 08:37, 19th November 2002:
 
Did I not mention that Phil is a phsyco? I dont WANT his number!
Posted by cal, 08:43, 19th November 2002:
 
sul said: "wasnt chatting her up. I was gaining the facts"

facts like whether she was busy this weekend?
Posted by Sul, 08:47, 19th November 2002:
 
she's not actually
Posted by Sul, 08:48, 19th November 2002:
 
I mean... errr... I try to clear up some facts and get the piss taken out of me for it, well thats nice innit!
Posted by jlittle, 08:49, 19th November 2002:
 
Liverpool is only a few hours on the train mate :)
Posted by jlittle, 08:49, 19th November 2002:
 
Infact, I'm driving that way Friday if you want a lift, heh
Posted by Sul, 08:53, 19th November 2002:
 
:p
Posted by Grim..., 08:55, 19th November 2002:
 
Get Phil's number! I'm not afraid!
Posted by Sul, 09:21, 19th November 2002:
 
No but she might be that I'm asking for it, how weird does that sound?
Posted by Grim..., 09:28, 19th November 2002:
 
Do it!
Posted by ell, 08:17, 28th November 2002:
 
Do it, or we'll text her the URL of this thread, and then she'll NEVER meet up with you!
Posted by Sul, 12:42, 29th November 2002:
 
Why dont one of you do it? I havent spoken to her since that night anyway so ner :p
Posted by Grim..., 13:44, 29th November 2002:
 
Because, um, we don't have the easy-going charm you do?

Um...
