The last week without drinking I think might be the longest I've gone without a drink for a year.
Feels good. I might start drinking temperance drinks. Root beer, ginger beer, sarsaparilla.

The problem with temperance drinks is that you run the risk of being dubbed 'Sody Pop' if one of the local toughs catches you drinking them in the bar.

Either drink less at night or take up daytime drinking. I am, what I think top scientists would call 'Perma-Drunk'.
Still, at least it's an ethos, man.
Are you drinking Nazi branded schnapps? That is what it sounds like from here. And do not listen to sody pops.

Morning explorers below the Zoom line,
Survived the big freeze this weekend and used it as an excuse to get in a lot of video gaming and very little of leaving the house. Hitman 3 - Highly recommended. Solved a murder mystery then assassinated a load of assassins in a Berlin nightclub after helping a lad out with his 'allergy pills'.
Anyone been virtual commuting yet? If they can make it include cyber rod hull, electric pastries of questionable quality and a near uninterrupted 40 minutes of videojames videos I'm all in. Top π

I think after the next football match I might go and sit on my own in the car for three hours, stone cold sober, listen to music, drink coke and refuse to go to the loo even when it gets really desperate. Being expected to behave like a vaguely normal human being immediately after a 90 minute anger and pain session is too much.

Being expected to behave like a vaguely normal human being immediately after a 90 minute anger and pain session is too much. Millwall away on Wednesday. You should stand for 3/4 hour in the cold first before getting in to the car. Perhaps jostle a police officer a tiny bit if you can find one to listen to you complain. Normal humans sulk for 3-4 hours or more after football matches. That's just basic.

sigh He'd be more likely to score if he played. Over 3 games he's had about 20 minutes.

I have no idea if he is shit or not. For the 20 minutes he played we did not get the ball to our forwards in attacking situations.

When playing for the Sheep (as they are colloquially known), he was utter shite for a year; implausibly prolific for a year; then utter shite again for another 6 months. Mind you, the getting the ball in attacking situations thing was also an issue in the latter period. He is a conundrum - not that good in the air for a big lad, doesn't have a good touch for a big lad, but sometimes at least remembers where the onion bag is.

Hello. Games? Apex. It's like crack. Telly? Giri/Haji. It is quite good. Ottm? At least I didn't splash out on any terrible ppv football this weekend. However, fuck Mondays.

I exaggerate. He has played 22 minutes, plus 2 periods of injury time. In the game he got 21 minutes he had to play wide right
I am not happy about this. If we were scoring it might be ok. We are the second lowest scorers.
If there were fans allowed at games Karanka would be on his way after Saturday.

I don't mind forwards of questionable ability. I once went to Shrewsbury specifically to see the debut of the mighty Trevor Aylott. We lost 4-1 . He did not score. His tally for us was 1 league goal in 26 games. After that my hopes have tended towards the realistic when it comes to goal scorers - that is if he was any good he wouldn't be signing for Blues.

As older members may recall I never drank less half a bottle of wine or equivalent for 37 years, until the shit hit the fan in 2013.
Except for one day in 1978 on an epic holiday where 20 odd (and we were oddballs) mostly very bright, but flawed - it was in fact a bit like this place. We literally drank continuously except when asleep ...
I was sleeping in a car which meant being forced to open eyes at about 5 a.m. I'd open my eyes feel awful get out the car and join the 6 a.m. morning journey to get the massive number of french sticks required for the day, cross the road and have a couple or 3 glasses of under the counter Eau de vie, distilled to much higher alcohol levels abv. This would push us back into a semblance of life ...
But that day, I'd played Bridge until 3 a.m. the night before drinking a half litre of Glenfiddich... I opened my eyes, got out the car and my head exploded. I fell flat on my face, I crawled 30 yards to where there was deep shade and just lay there hurting for the morning. I knew if I had another drink, any drink I would die. So that day I drank sips of water until my stomach had stabilized, my eyes had stopped seeing double.
The following day I returned to my wicked ways, with the exception that my last drinks of the night were a couple of litres of weak French beer!
I gave the Glenfiddich to my friend (the Cambridge MA First Class) who I last saw that day, gyrating in a field singing to himself!

The more you write about him Rolling, the more I like him. He sounds like the sort of player I could really love at Blues. It's possible there's something wrong inside my head.

Surely everyone has done the get drunk then drink 1/2 bottle/ 1/2 litre of spirits trick at least once?
It's one of life's learning experiences.

I had a baked potato with cheese for lunch. I purchased some cheese from a local grocer but found it had a sour taste and pungent aroma after I had grated it on to the potato. Cathedral City. Use by date the 29th of January. Modern life. We'll be eating pizza crusts from bins next.*
* I didn't actually eat the cheese. I shovelled it over to the side of the plate, and only afterwards discovered the use by date on the pack.
