That is possibly the most aggressive post amipal has ever made. I'm stunned.
Not a word about curries, no, it's the sausages that get it in the kippers.
He's flipped. Gone full John Rambo. |

Afternoon dentist fans!
The new dentist was about 12 years old, but she was very nice. A quick scrape of the back of the front bottom teeth and then some x-rays and surprisingly all good. Well, except one thing. I had to fill in one of those forms they give you every few years, health issues, allergies, smoking habits etc. I significantly understated my alcohol units per week and she still pulled me up on it and said it was too high and told me off. Broken Britain.

I had the same with my, also young GP, about units, I deflected by telling her it used to be 50 in the '70s*.
Was told I wasn't being judged, which was nice, gave her a not unrealistic ball-park number, now booked in for a liver blood test.
Which I had a year ago and was fine.
Still nice they're trying to help.
*That is the recommended number was 50.

Oh man, I always lie to the health professionals about booze intake. I worry one day the NHS will withdraw support for booze hounds.

Doctors know people lie and automatically double the number.

She said I should have no more than 14 units! What the hell. Sure it used to be 28, and even that should be 28 drinks, not units.

How many pints is 14 units? 50? Sounds about right to me

My wife bought 3 big crates for Christmas that were on offer. We still have some cans left.

I didn't realise you had to send the batteries to a VW centre to get them charged. Might as well just buy a new one

Putting coffee grounds in the battery almost certainly invalidates the warranty.

In a pub at the weekend a guy next to me at the bar ordered a pint of Kronenbourg, at which point his mate shouted something like "Kronenbourg? If you're going to be that much of a cunt you might as well just drink stella"
Wise words

Pref.Mam. is in Durham for 2 nights and I'm am once again in my "what takeaway should I get?" paralysis.
Ideally it would be something we don't normally have, which is donner kebab* but I fancy cod and chips.
Cue 6 hours of indecision followed by a cheap burger and chips from a place that is still open.
*proper lamb not that German stuff.

I felt that sausages would cover more bases. Cast a wider net. |
