I have a week off soon
and no money. What can I do that is free and fun?
At the moment I have
*Painting my nails
*Reading a book

Which is a sad and pathetic list *sadface activated*

Alt: How much cash do you think I'd get for killing Lab and selling his organs?

where do you live?
if in or near London, there is loads you can do for free
Otherwise, long walks in thr country side with a nice picnic - you'll get a good tan/burn, and when you go back to work, everyone will go 'OMG, where did you go on holiday?' and you can go all smug 'oh, just here and there' and seem all cool and aloof and unattainable.

I have no idea. I have only ever driven through the midlands, and plan to keep it that way.

a clean living lad like Lab?
you should be able to get a fair wedge for his heart and lungs. liver and kidneys probably not too bad either.
(, Mon 5 Jul 2010, 11:04, Reply)
Just do the same things you do with your weekends
but at a more relaxed pace.

And whilst doing these things, have some dirt cheap white cider but drink it from wine glasses, as though it is a nice Prosecco.

And Lab's organs will be worth a FORTUNE. Very little damage I'd say.

Well you could be hippy-bashed in a similar way

despite being surrounded by a fug of marijuana smoke
that is the only that makes me look like a hippy. The fact that I'm a big angry looking bugger with a beard tends to put people off trying to bash me.

Ah, but that's his cunning disguise
People see 'reasonably subtle' flare and think nothing of it. In the same way that Foxtrot tried to use his hot missus to draw attention away from his Massive, Flagrant Bumderism so he could infiltrate our ranks and...erm...'infiltrate' our 'ranks.' Vipros will use his Understated Flares and Massive Croissants to infiltrate our ranks and slowly draw us into his Gaian Drum Circle.

exactly
whereas my only hippy-like traits are smoking a load of pot and wearing flares. Which are outweighed by me hating everyone, not really being all that bothered by the environment and the fact that I shower daily.

And I dare say you do not acknowledge the jurisdiction of this court.
However we take it you do play an acoustic guitar, and would probably like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony.

I'd love a weekend doing nothing.
yesterday I got to lie in until 6.30am!! then spent the rest of the day caught up in a damage limitation exercise with the small person who has taken over my life. Fingers in sockets, eating the lavender plant in the garden, smacking his head off the windows, yanking the curtains down, gnawing on furniture. I'm actually glad to be at work today to get a wee bit of peace.
