We can clearly see the alcohol so I think a photo of the hostess is necessary to make an informed decision.
Mine you if Gazza has not been drinking................

This was what I thought reminded me of the students Union.
Specifically "drink, drink, drink!"

Amen to that. I got going instead of running up a debt - and pleased I did. I do think university is being used as a holding pattern now.

I never went to universty, found my own way into Students Union.
There are people that need to be in a University education, and those that don't.
Don't diss. the ones that should be there.
Equally don't diss. the ones that don't need to be.
Is that clear. :)

He told some stories, I am sure all these stories are all in the same vein.
Let's move on. and leave it to the imaginations of our readers.

Can I become a cabbie at 68 or should I just stick with internet porn

Samleeds nothing wrong with a bit of good 'ol internet porn.
Just remember to change hands @ 99 to avoid disappointment.

I admit to feeling a little saddened at many of the posts written since I was here last night.
I am sure it is all just intended as fun, but some come across as misogynistic.
And just at a time that the site was appealing to female users.
Lockdown is fucking with us all, but come on people, sort it.
Can I ask those posters to reflect upon their actions?

My reason for doing so is that I forsee this site needing someone to start wearing moderator shoes, and step up to the mark.
Possibly even shape the future of the site.
And it will probably not be me.

My health seems to have taken a down turn, again.
I am starting on stroke preventive meds. and have a cardiology appointment next week.
It's not the end of the world, I don't have Covid.
But who wants to keep visiting hospitals at this time?
Fecking grateful that they can squeeze me in!

I don't anticipate disappearing totally, just yet, but my prescence here will be more lightly felt.
Maybe in the spring I will come bouncing back, I consider this site as my baby.
Please look after it.

Robert.

If any of my contributions have upset or made any of the fairer sex feel uncomfortable, I unreservedly apologise for my overly zealous banter. My only excuse is that I am Irish and love the craic and the Chinese chuckle brothers led me astray, so it's their fault. In the future, I will watch my posts and tone them down in total respect to the founders and administrators of this wonderful site.

I'm having the first glass of my Isle of Harris gin I was given for Christmas.
Yum! :D
Think I'm going to have to try and clone it if anyone has managed it?

Careful tasting and write down what you taste. Use the net for reference.
By that I mean some Gin Expert(ha ha) may have done a write up.
I will help where I can Jenny.

According to the net the only thing I need to try and source is sugar kelp!
Otherwise it is juniper, coriander, angelica, orris, cubeb, bitter orange, liquorice and cassia bark.
Anyone know what the seaweed looks like?! :lol:
