Are you in for the evening TGB?

Well my mate is coming over later
but probably not for a few hours yet

You any plans?
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Fri 24 Oct 2008, 18:01, Reply)

I'm gonna make leek and potato soup after Scrubs
Drink a little more vodka, play some Mario Galaxy and get myself a good nights sleep.

I bought a book on knots from a charity shop. My life moves at such a furious pace :)

knots?
for exciting purposes *waggles eyebrows* or boat stuff?

*waggles eyebrows*
Just because I'm the kind of guy who finds Ray Mears interesting. And I like to know these things.

Plus I need to get my scubidoux fix.

Nah, seriously, I'm making friendship bracelets for my daughter and I'm looking for more innovative ways of tying them off.

Edit: soup FTW! We need a b3ta cookbook!

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Fri 24 Oct 2008, 18:31, Reply)

I wouldn't want TWW any other way it's true
My forays into /talk are generally productive and interesting. Wormulus got in a right strop the other night. It was quite fun.

I have even developed a new name to taunt the aresholes their further.

But that said, it is a funny place to post if you are in the mood, don't write it off unless you've tried it. The majority of people are quite funny.
( Bazongaloid, Fri 24 Oct 2008, 18:43, Reply)

/talk just scares me
the few times I've had a look it seems to be full of gratuitous nastyness. I can be as nasty as the next person when the mood takes me, but really, life's too short.

I'll stick with the fluffeh OTers
(TheWeeWitch hasn't been here much recently .., Fri 24 Oct 2008, 18:46, Reply)

I've tried it
Got virtually faceraped the first day. So I gave up. I was so pleased when OT arrived :)

But I do lurk there occasionally when nothing's happening here. You're right, some of them are funny. I guess it's just the bandwidth-wasting arsebandits that come and post here that bug me.

Well done on your business news, I shall look forward to seeing the finished pants on sale.

Mrs al had an attack of conscience today in M&S, she was looking at some shoes but decided against them when she noticed they were made in Vietnam.

I was very proud, I must be finally having an effect on her.

MBD, ta
not actually here for long tonight. My mum is coming round. I'm not sure if she loves me or my sky+ box more! I suspect it's the sky+ box, actually. She is way too tight to actually pay to see a film at the cinema, so she waits until it's on sky then gets me to record it for her.
(TheWeeWitch hasn't been here much recently .., Fri 24 Oct 2008, 19:10, Reply)

Don't watch enough TV
to warrant sky+. I also object to having to pay extra each month for the facility. Surely all the extra functionality is in the new box you buy?
(MadBouncyDog Barking at the moon since, Fri 24 Oct 2008, 19:19, Reply)

I probably would have
felt prouder had I not been purchasing a jacket at the time she told me this.

Sadly my morals have to balance with my budget and it was a nice jacket.

Mrs al was very pleased I was buying it though as she can now throw out my old donkey jacket which I have had for over ten years.

I'm taking my teenage daughters to see High School Musical 3 next week. Not because they want to go, but because I want to see it and I can't go on my own.

we're all well (now) ta. We had a spell just a week or so back where we all went down with various bugs, one after the other. Like dominoes. The only exception was the tummy bug, which hubby didn't get, the jammy sod. I lost half a stone in a week. It was deeply unpleasant.

MBD, we, how shall I say, struck a deal with Sky. Free sky+ box, keep the old box, for no installation costs and no extra money per month, and in return we don't transfer our business elsewhere .... you have to threaten to cancel before they make you a decent offer.

edit: HSM3. I can't believe you admitted that either ...

I shave in the shower, I'm blind as a fucking blindfolded bat without my glasses but a hand mirror works a treat.

That and sensitive fingertips for checking afterwards :)

@MDB
get a mirror with sticky pads and stick it to your wall, you can rinse it with the shower head to stop it steaming up and then you can check what your doing while shaving.

Since, as chickenlady put it earlier today, I look like the laughing cavalier, a mirror is essential to make sure my handlebar moustache stays level on both sides.

Except some soup which I suddenly got up and made after reading the start of this thread.
It started out as leek and potato. Now it's leek, potato, onion, sweet potato, celery, cabbage, courgette, mushroom, and lots of fresh herbs from the garden. It smells divine but won't be ready to eat until at least 11 o clock, which is a funny time to be having dinner.
