well now we are getting into sensitive stuff that affects us what about ‘conjugal sleeping’ you know shackin up in the same bed with another body varying from single through to queen and finally king sized beds
my own personal view is that shackin up in bed should only be for sex not for sleeping. I much prefer to sleep in a king size single alone - have a feck if ya must earlier on in some apparatus but sleeping well…do you recall those carry grant films when the young couple were eventually somehow married and there they were in single beds sitting up with their cologne applied and reading something and then one would say “well I think I will turn over now dear and go off to dreamland” or words to that effect
after all anything besides sex can happen when sleeping with others - loss of bedding on one side - secret farts let out without a sound [how disgusting] and not bothering to shower and clean ones teeth!
yes it’s all too much sometimes I just fall into the cot fully clothed and sleep - no one to bother just me and me!
I love having a fart when I need one and the odor never seems to bother me? and I can stretch in many directions without bothering anyone.
yes me and me king sized single are great friends!!:grouphug:
I remember someone telling me that Napoleon was a hermaphrodite, and the reason he always had his hand across his chest was to hide his large breasts, do you know if that’s true Pug?:shock:
“I love having a fart when I need one and the odor never seems to bother me? and I can stretch in many directions without bothering anyone” Quote Gunbug.
Speaking of secret farts (oh no not farts again), we already have feminine type threads about “Your first kiss” “Your first date” “Your first love” etc., but here’s one for the lads, do you remember “Your first fart in the presence of your girlfriend/wife/other ?” Chew on that one Gummy.
The winner with the best reply will receive a bottle of lavender body spray and a packet of the new plastic bag “Fart trappers” once the fart has bolted the bag is instantly wind sealed and ready for disposal at a more convenient time. They come in all colours and can be inserted into the underpants/knickers then removed later, saving embarrassment all round, they have been hailed as the invention of the century by the Heinz Beans company.
Indeed Gummy. RJ knows his stuff, history, music, the theatre, latin, the bible, films, all the saints. not to mention his vast knowledge of fine cloth and fabrics, yes the man is a fountain of wisdom, sadly missed to be sure.
The Euro reached 92 pence sterling during the week as the pound crumbles, my son, who works servicing company computers was telling me that all the techy crowd are buying their needs online from Britain now and giving China a miss, much faster delivery from Britain is another big factor. So it’s an ill wind and all that, but don’t worry, be happy, the lord taketh away with one hand and he giveth back with the other.
I can remember when you could get 4 dollars for your pound, that’s why 5 shillings was called a dollar and half a crown was half a dollar over here in the old money.
Never mind all that exchange rate trivia, something much closer to home is happening. A humble 500ml tin of kestrel Super cost, twelve months ago £1.19, in the same shop (new owners I’ll grant you) it’s now £1.69.
I was running late from work the other evening, so, I stopped at a Chip Shop on the perimeter of the city, to save us cooking latish on, anyway, four shops down was what could be described as a Spartan Outdoor, so I thought I would procure some tinnies there, to save getting back out of the car, at my local shop. You could have knocked me down with a feather £2.09 per tin, as I walked out empty handed, the geezer behind the counter asked if I could not see what I was looking, I said “you’re havin a giraffe mate £2.09 a tin”, he said he was aware of the cost, but, a case of the stuff now costs over £30.00 a case, I said “but @ £2.09 a tin that equated to £0.47p a unit, scotch is only £0.49p a unit, the worlds going crazy I tell you”.
It now cost a tenner a week to drink responsibly.
No use complaining about the price of drink Spitty, as me dad always said to the complainers “Too bad you didn’t drink enough of it when it was cheap”
The new chap we have in command over here is dead nuts about making a new law to prevent them selling cheap booze in the supermarkets, he’s a Fine Gaeler, the Irish tory party and dead set on making an Irish nation of tee totalers, some task, he may as well dream in the Dail as dream in bed, but as they say, God loves a trier.
still making 25 litres a fortnight over here of Coopers Real Ale at 68cents for 1.25 litres - it’s hard to drink sensibly at that price and I never drink whilst driving it just spills all over the place!
My first (and last) attempt at home brewing was a disaster. Having scrubbed and sterilised all the bottles and waited patiently for a few weeks what seemed like years, I bottles the stuff with the help of my young son, having filled the outside coal house with bottles we had about a dozen left so we put them in our bedroom, then at about 4am next morning they started to explode one by one, I needn’t tell yez the wife was furious and that was the end of that.
Someone told me afterwards we used the wrong bottles or caps, something like that, anyway with all the disinfecting and waiting you have to do before you get a lick of beer I never tried it again, besides you can’t beat a pint of Guinness from St. James Gate no matter how much it costs.
Lately I’ve cut down on beer a lot, much prefer the port.
Home brewing is best left to the experts, there’s an art in it somewhere I’m sure.
A Geman girl I once knew
Drank a gallon of Gumbuds homebrew
Then this pretty fraulein, to the Jacks made a beeline
And disappeared down the loo. ;-)
Something strange is going on, I was reading some text today, and read Pharmacy as PPharmacy, then Petrol as PPetrol, and Placid as PPlacid, so I rang up NHS 111, the lady on the other end of the phone line asked if I had ever had PP Eye.
what’s the matter with yuz guys land of the guiness??
I brew in outside temps up to 37C came hail or cyclone - I never sterilize a bottle simple flush them out clean with tap water. then throw the in plastic bags in the shed until needed.
Once the brew has fermented out [first fermentation] I syphon off into waiting empty bottles and add between a teaspoon or two depending on size of bottle to aid second fermentation
tighten nut and shake gentle with a rocking motion until you fall off the chair!
place wherever ya want but preferably outside the house [yes the women don’t like them indoors - so let’s keep em appy sometimes!] leave for a minimum of one week - these are of course plastic bottles usually used coca cola which therefore never explode just expand!
NOW the important step - DO NOT OPEN warm because you get warm beer and mount vesuvius [I nearly said that right] the bottle should be placed in a freezer compartment for approx one hr were it is ‘tamed’
remove and drink pleasantly - yes I know it is all a bit of an effort but don’t good things require some effort - I always refuse manufactured beer these days unless it is something rather special and expensive and enjoy the home brew every time - if you don’t finish your bottle 1.25ltres in one sitting place in the fridge door for another time - wot could be simpler??
from the land of the hopping kangaroo beer to the guiness bogs of Oiland!
and he was a froggie weren’t he?? oh I do miss old RJ at these times he does know his history!
