Dad was well behaved up in Murrayfield he didn't come with us to Twickers, one weekend of excitement is enough for him!
We were sat with the WAGS, disappointed that the rugby boys are going for the blonde stick insects too now-don't they realise how good a more mature, curvy woman can be
Just watched the match on DVD, seemed much slower, catching up with the Ireland one now.
Cheers to all the mums too, have a few bottles

Just in from work where I handed in my 4 week notice we have had a wee bit of luck with some extra cash so my very thoughtful OH said that I may as well finish work early as we had enough to cover my wages I would have earned A bottle of merlot to celebrate then it's off to bed Tab is on me

Well if the tab is on someone else then I'll have my usual Merlot and another six bottles to keep me going. No work tomorrow, I can have a hangover

I remember handing in my notice around this time last year, very scary and it just felt so final! Funnily enough I did it as I was being given a wage review, my first words being "well you don't need to go into too many details...errrr I have a letter to give you" The boss was expecting it though, he knew about the immigration right from the start

BEVS

Well it's a bottle for him and a bottle for her and a bottle for her and a bottle for her and if there is a bottle over then that is mine.

I've just sprung me news that I am a Noooo Zeelander.
Nearly 5 years since landing and 6 years since it first crossed our minds we could hop more than just one ditch.
We'd only the 3 yrs since PR to go for the Citizenship but we were a bit lax.

Roll on the RWC.
We've got Italy up this way but we'em hoping to see a few games if we can.

Hello, just joined today, so not sure of protacol. Question , i have heard that we Brits coming to New Zealand are not made very welcome AND that my wife African/Caribean, will not be very welcome as a lot of racism. Discuss.

BEVS

Think we'll pass on that in here as it's the place to relax , have a chat and a few

Have a glass of whatever you fancy and one for your wife.

Thanks Phyl, got through my day at school, only one more to go (got myself 2 planning days). No spots yet just mega nerve pain My Headteacher says it can be brought on by stress. Stress?? Me?? I have no stress in my life.....

Hopefully when I finish doing awake for 28+hrs stints with 4 hrs kip and up again I will be more able to cope with the stress Just having a red wine then off to bed,night night

Urgh J19fmm. Have a bottle or 3 of red on me. :beer.

I've had shingles a couple of times now. Mine was stress related or so I was told and it sometimes now flairs if I get too run down. Very painful it is too. Once you have the blasted spots it's too late to take anything for it. It has to run it's course.Sneaky that.

I'd give you a cyber hug but that would be painful.

Bottoms up then. Time for a refill .
Whatever you're having, wine all round and a few pints for Bob.

j19fmm

Good morning, possibly too early for a dram but am pleased to say still no spots! Had a fab night last night, went to see Kenny Rogers in Plymouth , he was awesome. Still has an amazing voice even though he looks sooo old. He was a real showman and very funny comments to the audience. Hope for us all! Put one in the pipe for later

Persephone

Just popping in for a swift 6 Merlots before getting an early night. Bed is the warmest place in the house And I'll finish off with a very large whisky and green ginger to really warm me up

j19fmm glad to hear you have no spots, hope you get well soon. A few drams I think to ease the pain.
Drinks are on me as I can now do links, I know it's not that exciting but it is for me [Note to self-must get out more]

So line up the Bollys for Am Loolah, red[Merlot?] for Bevs, Merlot for Phyl and drinks for whoever else happens to be lurking in here. As many as they want. Just keep the drinks coming bartender.
