Perhaps not that funny, but a bit of light relief.*

I just drank a G&T and only when I went for a refill did I realise that I'd omitted the Gin.

I once drank a g&t and it was only when I swigged from the bottle that I realised I'd deliberately omitted the tonic.

A former girlfriend used to drink gin and coke. It was excruciatingly embarrassing ordering it at the bar.
"Yes that's what I ordered. No, it's not for me. Yes, look I know. Yes it sounds horrible mate, it tastes horrible too. Dont ask me pal, she's going out with me so she's obviously got shit taste, this is just one of the signs "
Edit: she, a northern Irish Catholic whose father was a member of Sinn Fein ended up marrying a North African Muslim lad, in what their children when going through security at the airport will call " a right ball ache"

tenthenemy Sorry MrRooster won't be driven home for Christmas. Bad show. Fuck 2020. Apparently I only spent 160 hrs on the switch this year - which doesn't seem right. But there you go, those boffins know best. So, a South African strain eh? Marvellous. Durban Poison is the only South African strain I've any interest in. Attempting to cook my first ever Turkey Crown tomorrow. Send help.

Cooking on Xmas Eve so I can let it cool down and carve it. Then on Xmas day I just have to worry about getting the rest of the meal right.

Clever girl.
I'm fairly sure half of ours would get snaffled on Xmas eve if I tried that approach.

There's a great track featuring Shenguin in the jukebox. Don't tell him though, he'll be furious. |

Good luck with that considering we're getting food airdropped in like a 3rd world desert country that the Septics have just "liberated". If you're a good aim maybe you could bring down a sick pigeon with a pebble? |

I'm tackling this new South African menace one bottle at a time. The Pinotage looks especially virulent.
It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

I've been out buying cheese, alcohol and nuts Still not sure I've got enough alcohol. But you’ve got enough cheese, right?
Possibly.
May need one more wheel of camembert.
Not that I've got one wheel already. I have half a wheel of truffle camembert. And a couple of pieces of other cheese. Soft cheese. Wigmore. Another. And some Cathedral City.
Some people will really try and bust your chops for buying Cathedral City.

What's wrong with that?
People will bust your chops for anything.

Hallo
I looked up the lyrics to the Beatles song you said about (Tapatalk told me about it, though I've tried to stop its messages). I typed in 'Everybody's got something to hide except me and my monkey meaning'.
I wanted to to see if the Cosmos had anything to tell me. To see if it would give me some meaning. But it had nothing.

I took part in a quiz on Zoom. I spent a lot of the time looking at the video of myself and wondering if I could straighten my glasses. I wondered if the angle was flattering
I had some private chat with people in the side-chat bar. I drank sherry. I ate nuts.

You're not wearing glasses in your Avatar. Is that the real lazybones? I wonder. I think the Beatles track is a real quandary, what are they singing about? The monkey on your back, perhaps. Who knows... |
