Thought you were going to the pub?

I only popped down for 45 minutes, just had a couple of swift 'uns.

You're a quick drinker
Mind you, you've had plenty of practise.

Been drinking since 18.00
I don't know why I'm trumpeting that, it's nothing to be proud of.

It's a good effort.
Especially seeing that tomorrow is a major night on the drinking calendar.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 30 Dec 2010, 23:12, Reply)

Tomorrow
Is sociable - at my sister's neighbours. They're big into real ale so I'll be scoffing Old Scrottflanger's Mighty Buttockbellower all night.

Tonight is me. And any other b3tan who might care to join in.

I'll be up for a bit, but I'm not drinking much.

TD
One-time Lloyds broker, then Warehouse Production Manager (my capitals - the job didn't deserve it) then Bus Driver (the job does deserve it - if you think it's easy, try it) is now manager of Bus Drivers.

I'm a manager by inclination and temprament which might sound very condescending but I am.

I didn't want to be a manager any more - retirement isn't too far away - but I've been sweet-talked into it and being an egotistical sort of chap I took it.

I was unhappiest
When I was in the latter days in the Insurance industry - because it is just a big factory of money.

eat at the beginning of the evening, pub crawl, then back to mine to continue the drinks possibly with pizza

how about april for a girly bash and then june for a massive summer bash?

Haha, you reckon your new year's resolutions will have lapsed by april?
sounds good - the start of the month is probably best for me. I take it June is when your dad is away?

Bunk off swipey
come swallow carbs with us and down the alcohol. You know you want to.

April isn't generally good for me since it's the Easter vacation. June should be fine though. However if you can do March instead perhaps :)
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Thu 30 Dec 2010, 23:50, Reply)

could do either late march or early may in cheshire for the girls
and then 25 june is proposed date for london megabash, but trying to work out (i) whether rakky can make that date as co-organiser and allround amazing woman and (ii) whether amberl and applebite and lampito would still have exams???
