Bitter but optimistic

Thank you for your support DC. You have obviously worked your way through a similar experience. BTW I have have exhorted Biffen to join this conversation , as his input would be invaluable, but alas he has sucumbed to the pleasures of the flesh and is currently unavailable.

Well not exactly Moon. Laws were different in those days - if you get my drift.

Yes and vinyl seats - you could almost hose them out. But there was a problem - the young lady passed out - what's a man to do?

If you lunch with Biffen (a singular experience) the "wine" come in large plastic containers.

That's the one. I remember pouring quite a bit into a young lady (I was quite sophisticated even then) and she chucked in my Kingswood. Just natural evolution DC.

Ah yes. I worked as a pot smoking barman. A couple of other delights were Advocaat and a red fizzy thing called something duck.

And don't forget when Spewmante became fashionable.

Often, after playing cricket on very hot days, some blokes had the habit of having a shandy or two first. They reckoned a full beer was too bitter when you were really thirsty.

You are correct Biffen. I thought I was a certainty for a gong this year. What the eff more can I do??

And! What's more you have insulted a fellow poster, who has risked life and limb , protecting his neighbour's wife and wine collection against the threat of fire. You should be ashamed.

You have magnificently demonstrated just how boorish you are Shandi. I am trying to be an example of what is expected on this site. I am sure WJ will admonish you for your crass posting.

Inspirational stuff Biffen. Understand the subtle metaphors that evolve from your substance abuse. The lads teared up when reading this.

Yes! Before posting OD, I read of your attendance , and that of your daughter, I respectfully appreciate our difference and hope you enjoy the night.

" The Boss" ( so called) - older than me. Former radical now just another (establishment) aging star swallowing what dollars he can! Eff him!

You are a man of taste and sensibility RL.

You can longer actually see the tiles at the Gat. Although Biffen gives those in his penthouse a scrape from time to time.

You step on stuff like that in the Gat - but it certainly isn't banana!

Illogical comment comment Moon. If he gives everyone the [censored] ( which he does) then we need the six toilets.

Christ Biff don't make those statements. Talk of stables could toss a few local Christains over the edge!

Surely Moon you can see why WJ despairs over posters on this site. This particular thread is for love and discussion not animosity. Yet you choose to be selfish and thoughtless - you probably hate bananas. Lift your game Moon - let OD se that there is still love in the world- let flo g see that we care about his loss.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz same old! same old! Now I know what put Rip van Winkle to sleep!

Shite happens. My care factor is zero. However many stolen items turn up at the Gat.

I'd give her one.

Does "shazza" keep up her medicals? Are all tests as they should be? I mean assurances are one thing but what about the science?

You purport to be an honest businessman Biff, but your story is a little thin. I have no recollection of being dead!
