No I just don't spend money here any more, I save it to fly back with!

Niece/god-daughter is 11 in September she doesn't know I'm coming back for it yet
Have to see what we can work out, I'll be around the second half of Sept/beginning October

Witchy nearly falls off her stool laughing, Aussie bloke looks confused and says "ÿeah whatever maaaaate" Ends up with a pint in front of him and announces that anyone who can drink that much beer needs a medal So much for the hardened Aussie drinker! Sooooo funny though, this barman with a perfect BBC accent and completely dead-pan, sorting out Mr Idiot

Brilliant!!!!

Apologies if I'm taking this discussion a bit off track, but besides agreeing with Polly that Comfortably Numb is indeed one of the best songs in the history of time, I have been watching this one and I just have to say that Dave Gilmour is one of the most versatile and best British artistes I have ever seen. I hope those Roger Waters fans out there do not beg to differ



Part 2 and the "Finale" are excellent ones as well..

Game's on ITV, right? May watch their online version then.
Hungover tae high heaven now after 5 hour 'happy hooer' Friday eve with the lasses followed by mutton curry at midnight at Nepalese curry house just prior to last train. No werk til Tues aft so it's all good.
