I was just reminiscing with my bartender about the days when Oban was under $40/750ml.

I also need to get some brandy for a chicken liver paté recipe. I can either buy a miniature or use whisk(e)y instead.

Might work out okay, but butter scotch is definitely superior to butter rum.

I may cry

I appear to own a pair of shorts. This is news to me. I don't remember buying them, I don't remember the last time I wore them, I had no idea they were a part of my wardrobe.

So, what shade of fish-belly white ARE your legs? Cod? Haddock? North Atlantic white Fish?

Oh my goodness me no. Like Billy Connolly, my legs start off blue. I have sunbathe them for a week just to get them white

"Pale blue"...

Got it.



I'm definitely pinkish white.


I had a suntan once. It washed off.

Wanna picture me lying on a sunny beach?
Put a fork in the micrwave.

Could they have been issued with one of your work uniforms?

No, they only give us a shirt with our name on. So we don't forget

This is the first time in about a month I haven't had either cricket or Tour de France to watch when I get home.

You could make the argument that herbal and fruit teas are actually more traditional, having been around since people learned how to boil water and that if you put certain leaves/fruits/roots in it it tastes nice or does you good, than black tea, which has only been as popular as we know it in Britain now for a couple of hundred years.

I absolutely hate, loathe and despise this kitchen Whoever thought it would be a good idea should be made to jump up and down on a beehive Naked.

Oh, it's gotta be better than the one in my last apartment. My apartment was originally one half of a larger apartment. My kitchen was originally part of some sort of foyer. It was only about 4-5 foot deep by maybe 10' wide. I couldn't fully open the fridge door. The Half the sink was blocked by the oven. I had only about 2.5 feet of open counter space and the small cabinets had no shelves until I added one. I couldn't run two appliances without blowing the breaker and when I complained, they put a lock on the breaker box.

Just thought that might give you something for comparison.

It's deffo not as bad as that but it ain't far off.

A 21 year old Texas man is "sentenced" to marriage after getting in a fight with 19 yr old girlfriend's ex boyfriend. While the media has focused on the marriage requirement I'm even more shocked that the judge also requires the defendant to write a bible verse 25 times each day he remains under probation.

>>The probation terms included requiring Bundy to write out a Bible verse 25 times a day ("If a man digs a pit, he will fall into it." -- Proverbs 26:27), and getting married within 30 days.<<

I don't know whether to or

Hmmm... I thought I posted this in another thread (which I will do now) but yeah. indeed.
