Re: Let's do 'Days' again
That was a bloody weird meet. I don’t think it was the one you’re thinking of Kleio. I was there, pregnant with Lexie. That was the meet where Calico had a date in the afternoon and basically used Beab to facilitate it for her.

Pip has me on ignore. Although you are right it was the afternoon not the night before now I think. And that was a bloody weird meet. Night Train. :shudder:

I think she might have had two dates. I wouldn’t put it past her.

Ah yes, I think this would have been pre-2006.

I was trying very hard not to see or hear but I was sitting next to her!

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
That Sev ) Ivana Humpalot on HB. She was a complete loon. She cornered me at that Tiger Tiger London meet, smoking, massive preggo belly, telling me she'd just come from a hotel room with her extra curricular lover who had dumped her. I couldn't bloody get away. It was awful

This was my first ever meet. Why am I still here?rosy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 6:38 pm I felt so guilty after that Manchester meet about how I felt about Sev. Online we were good friends or so I thought, but in person I had this blaring alarm going off in my head NO NO NO this woman is mad. That was even before Night Train ate my dessert and then the two of them were doing rude things in each other's laps under the table. Thank goodness I had Bramble on the other side of me for some much needed sanity.

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
I keep thinking of Freddie Starr Ate My Hamster.
Sev was very strange indeed. I remember the time when she claimed to punch people who crossed her, then got into a massive argument when she denied it after people weren't impressed. No matter how often her original statement was quoted she carried on with the denials, over several threads.
She was normal on HB, I think - at first anyway. She had a different name then, but the one I have in my head may have been her actual name, so I don't want to post it.
All of a sudden, though, she started talking as though she'd put a normal sentence into Babelfish and picked out as many long words as she could. Her grammar got tortuous, too, and that was when she started going on about how she needed a man with a massive intellect, and said 'in the venacular' a lot'. It went downhill from then.
I didn't know about the poison pen emails (or the bodily fluids ). I thought she was suffering from a reactive mental illness after she lost her baby, and felt sorry for her. She was very irritating though.

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
She used to email me a lot, and her emails were wonderfully flowery. The thing is, I am in no way an overly wordy person* (if you’ve ever tried to have a conversation with me via email or PM, you’ll know), so she didn’t get much back and I think got bored of me.
*i like to think of it as an economy of language. I was the person always scrambling to meet the word count -10% for essays at uni.

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
I thought Ankh came after Sev, but I could well be wrong. I don't remember the Humpalot bit . Ivana rings a bell, though. I thought it began with an H, but I think that may have been her real name.

at the Sav revelations.
I was totally unaware of your encounter with Calico when I was breakfasting, Luce! I think I was too hungover to enjoy it too the full though.

If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
There were at least two usernames before she went Egyptian and then Spanish. One was Ivana I think and the other is on the tip of my tongue, it’ll come back to me. I do agree that she went full on loony after losing her baby, but she was a bit loony before. And her husband was a piece of work.
ETA I am normally a bit more understanding of mental illness, honest!

Yes to the last bit. It’s her real name. I remember her going by Ivana Humpalot, Seviliana and Ankh. I do think there was another one too.

I am so pleased Sav is not a weirdo. I really liked her and her IWLTSs.

Re: Let's do 'Days' again
I've heard of the sexual cocaine stories, but how have I never heard the name Sev before?!
Poor Sav!
