Great for those dreading the Christmas party and the office lech but a bit tough on the youngsters.

Snogging a stranger you’ve been flirting with is what it’s all about, if my dim and distant memories are correct :christmas_tree:

got it
Why do they call it snogging?

Partridge 1945, 'Snog is perhaps a blend of snug and cod (to flatter or kid a person). ’ That same source notes that “snogged up”—supposedly an RAF term dating to circa 1939—means “Smartened up, 'all dressed up. '”

and then along came youtube…

The worst snog for me was just the once… my bestest mate ever Rosi, she said something to me that was hurtful…We had just come out of the Lesley Arms Public House and then I grabbed hold of her Boyfriend Cliff and snogged him…was not funny either or nice…laughing now as it was a French Kiss… :icon_rolleyes:
She married him though.

My ex husband used to insist I stood next to him at 12 on New Years Eve, “so I don’t get into trouble kissing someone else”! :crazy_face:

This current one isn’t so fussed!

Worst I ever had was about 30 years ago during was supposed to be a friendly Christmas dance and a peck on the cheek with my husbands friend and what I felt pushing up against me revealed clearly he had more on his mind! :nauseated_face::face_vomiting:

Hi

A true story from when I was working.

Out with the Police on Operation Christmas Presence, which was the night time economy, on Christmas Eve, in a very big nightclub.

A group of attractive young ladies letting their hair down, known to the Police as they were A&E Nurses.

A younk drunk grabbed one of the them on the dance floor, spun her round and said " Give us a kiss under the misletoe gorgeous"

She stepped back, looked him up and down and said " I wouldn’t kiss you under anaesthetic"

Brilliant
