humans, not matter how dead, do not act like a liquid. It is not possible for a pile of humans to swarm up a vertical wall.

worst - well, this hen do at the weekend is shaping up to be a disaster. the bride is an utter control freak. either sort it yourself or leave it to the bridesmaids, but not 6 of one, half a dozen of the other.

It was a time to relax and let your worries behind. Exactly seven weeks or something crossed my mind. It was the shine of the time we never forget.
One morning our parents kicked us out of our beds. We told them it was stupid, don't play the fool. But the answer was short: "You gotta go to school!"

Have you noticed how all those horror stories about hotel building sites are by people who've booked cheapish package holidays, or those people that get stranded by airlines going bust are using companies that have been reporting serious financial difficulties ala Thomas Cook?
It's almost as though they're povvo retards who can't be fucked doing the slightest bit of research before handing over hundreds or thousands of pounds.
My worst holiday experience was that it got a bit cold in December in Berlin, which was hardly surprising since I'd checked the weather before going and packed appropriately.

One year I spent a lot of time pretending to be homesick and made him take me home, in reality it was because I had a fucking huge boil by my anus and was too embarrassed to tell him, the 'homesick' tears were remarkably easy to produce as a result of this.

Best holidays - Croatia, Turkey, Florida. Loved all of them.
Florida with 2 teenagers was brilliant, but hard graft getting up early most days to get to the parks to beat the crowds.
Croatia and Turkey - very relaxing, fantastic climate, great food and drink, did fuck all for 2 weeks apart from the odd day trip.
When we were in Croatia we took a day trip to Lake Bled in Slovenia, which was outstanding. Definitely recommend it, if you ever get the chance.

As was I. In my hotel room. Behind the curtains.

Quite enjoy gardening and recently taken on a smallish allotment. In the next week or two I hope to have my garden tidied up properly, and my allotment all planted up.

Maybe when I was younger and I overindulged on alcohol on the last night when I was about 15. I sprayed my hotel room and the corridor with black sick.
Morning after I had to get up and finish packing. It was still along the corridor (and in the lift). My parents were mortified.
Think that was my last family one.
Alt. Ive cut my buddleia's back to roots level. Just finding a way to kill them. Have got some roundup XL for weeds. Nice.
Just need it to stop raining now.

That really isnt fun.

just because I married someone whose mum squeezed out another someone that decided to run a B&B in that shithole because 'oh, there's loads of room for all the families to come together out of season'. Why her lot can't be like my lot and just be vaguely aware that they might still live in the same country and keep the fucking family socialising to funerals is beyond me.

He blamed the car and started to then harrass all subsequent cars that drove past.

My first hangover. Caused by a Greek 'cultural evening', key points being a Kumquat liquor tasting, copious red wine, food, retsina and vigorous dancing.
I had to be helped off the coach. The icing on the cake being that we were staying in a hotel with the delightful feature of the balcony overlooking the runway. My first hangover included real jumbos flying past my head from 5.30am.

One of my first MAJOR hangovers had a fucking car alarm blaring out all bastard day. Were it not for the fact I couldn't get out of bed I'd have smashed the cunt to fuck

For car and house alarms that don't get fixed.
Let them know, and then it's either a bat or expanding foam..

That was many, many Double Maxims followed by whisky

I too have repeatedly caused myself great suffering by the thought process "I am too full for more beer. If I drink more I will feel unwell - Better move on to whisky".
( , Tue 25 Mar 2014, 14:50, Reply)

This tells you how much Double Maxim was consumed prior to this decision

Camping with a mate in Wells-Next-The-Sea. Spunked the spending budget within the first two days on a Monopoly fruit machine after the thrills of crab fishing off the docks lost their allure. Sharing a tent meant I coudln't even console myself with an anger wank.
Taking the kids to Disneyland Paris was probably the best. They were at the right age and I had planned well to avoid too much queuing and smelly Frenchies.
Alt: Gardening can fuck right off. It's almost time to begin battle with the Frankenhedge again. It's about three different hedge types in one and impossible to get level.

A wooden house was suddenly a bit of a concern as well.
The fire took out 350 acres just to the north. We had embers floating past..
