 Let's try again, shall we?
	Let's try again, shall we?That thread was WTN.
What've you got in your diary this week? Anything good?
I'm taking my kid to see a Noggin the Nog theatre production on Sunday which I'm hoping will be good.
Alt: Do you like going to the theatre? Personally I think it's shit. I have never enjoyed a singe play I've been to. I like the atmosphere, the occasion etc but either I've been incredibly unfortunate in the plays I've seen or it really is shit. I cannot abide that overblown acting style. It's bent and 'theatre' types are the worst kind of fucking wankers.

alt: i think you've been unlucky. i've seen some fab things at the theatre. eg i know you hate musicals, as do i, but "avenue q" is in a different league. "fat pig" was awesome, "posh" was stunning, "abigail's party" was great...

 Nothing much old fruit,
	Nothing much old fruit, another week of Christmas parties, women with a million bags of shopping who don't seem to have developed an indoor voice, and the lonely drunks slowly getting lonelier and lonelier as Christmas approaches, and their family still haven't bothered to get in touch.

So bit of a doss, really.

 I've never understood this "two breathalysers" bollocks
	I've never understood this "two breathalysers" bollocksSo, say you're not sure if you've had a scoop to many, but as per French law you check yourself with a breathalyser. You're safe, WIN, you drive off, the French filth pull you over, you're now in a position where you're safe to drive but are illegal because you only have one breathalyser in the car. Whereas, if you'd just risked it, you'd be legal on both counts.
I really don't think they've thought this through, K.

 yeah, but if you have an electric one you only need to have the one.
	yeah, but if you have an electric one you only need to have the one.it's two disposable ones that the law requires. Which means, if you actually plan to use one, you need at least three. And if you don't plan to use one, what's the fucking point?
