My Berinsfield chum has reported snow down there too, but not enough to get her out of going to work at her school. And she's one of the first to cry off.

It can GTFF, I want to drive down to MK on Friday (for work) so I can pop over t'pub after. If it gets at all bad again, I can't. And that would suck.

Indeed, I suspected as much. No height attribute in the images so it skips about.

Nope, does it with mine too, and I have images and avatars turned off.

You're just bitter that you can't spoon me. Look, I'm sure I'll fall asleep on a sofa in a pub, so just do it then.

Then we'll see if coloured bouncers in Manchester take a drunken fool shouting "YOU'RE BLACK!" in their face as well as the one in London did

Please don't - I'm planning on being reasonably sober for most of the day...

Also - I'm fairly sure I wasn't telling the bouncer he was black, as he would have known. I was merely further expounding my Vin Diesel theory, and asking if he agreed.

And it's "BLECK", btw.

I'm not convinced you were. Bear in mind that I wasn't far away at the time as I was helping you to put your coat on

True, but I couldn't use 'black' there too, it would have made the post even worse to read.

Of course, the fact that what he actually said was "Shlumubdub frummmble blurbupbupbup BLECK" doesn't help.

Heh.

Tequila is the devil's drink, and I haven't touched it since. Which is why I have a nearly full bottle of con and a full bottle of mezcal at home.

I am so eating shit loads of food before drinking this time, and having a pint of milk.

It is a properly shit beard, though. The only time I've watched any TV at all since Friday and it was walking back into the old house to find that bollocks on. Sigh.

I feel I have the right to comment on this as I've not shaved since NYE and it's only just reached the 'scruffy enough for the office admin to start taking the piss out of me on a daily basis' stage.

In my experience that's as far as most of them go and I have heard thousands.

There's an app for it for the iPhone, unfortunately it's only available in 'merka at the moment.

Tequila gives me more memory loss than any other tipple, it makes me 'lively' at first then shortly after I slump. Not the best of boozes but it has it's time and place.

Tequila is dangerous juice. I don't know why, but I really don't taste anything when I drink it, so I have no aversion.

Aftershock tastes like the inside of Zardingle's mind, though.

Does it, perchance, make you happy?

At university I could drink loads of the stuff without much in the way of ill-effects, but my general acohol tolerance has nosedived over the last few years, particularly so for spirits.

Red Aftershock is lovely. I can make a good drink using that, which (oddly) makes you want to dance.

Variation on the usual scam email -

Quote:

Hello,

My name is Sgt.Fong Eric Lee, a (SGT) in the U.S Army presently in Afghanistan as a combat instructor. During one of our duty assignment early this year in (IRAQ), we stumbled on an Al-qaeda dump site where many arms and plenty cash in U.S. dollars and pounds where discovered in barrels at a farm house near one of Saddam Hussein old palace in Tikrit -Iraq during a rescue operation.

It was agreed by Staff Kenneth Buff and myself that some part of this money be shared between both of us before informing anybody about it since both of us saw the money first,(Eight Million Dollars) was given to me as my own share, but I tell you what! No compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our lives.

So I'm seeking your kind assistance to move this funds to you as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your care until I complete my service here in (AFGHANISTAN).Please respond for further details.

Sincerly,
Sgt.Fong Eric Lee.

So convincing, as I have US Army sergeants emailing me all the time!
