Where I come from:-
There are not so many abandoned animals that I want to adopt (hubby working for A.C.E sancuatary in Mijas Costa doesn't help)
I now have a lovely grandson who I have only seen twice and is now 15 months old
I had a great job and house now live in a "sardine can" with loadsa land and have loadsa mud inside when it rains an rains and-------.
But my favorite tipple is £5:99 in U.K. but only £1:65 here keeps me going!!!
Oh!!! to be in U.K. :thumbdown:

Oh help - when we get fed up or lonely or pissed off or homesick, we remind ourselves that the booze is cheap.

When I lived "at home" I didn't know an alcoholic. Where I live now - I might be turning into one. Hells bells, the booze here is cheaper than buying fruit juice or a coke or a Sprite for my kids in the bar.


Where I come from, a non alcoholic beverage costs a lot less than a glass of wine.

I've just spent the last ten days where I come from, it's so depressing and expensive there that I needed a drink to dull the pain but....a glass of red wine was £4.....Hell, I can buy a full bottle of Faustino here for that! :eek:
