It's 112 years older than the USA. Older than St Paul's. It's a worse act of vandalism than burning Notre Dame. What's more, it's much better for getting a drink than all the others. The way alcoholic drinks are viewed as naughty in the US is highly disturbing. I will never forget the faces of the German professors arriving for a conference in Chicago on a scorching hot summer day when they realised that in that uncivilised country the only cold drink to be had was coca cola. |

Destry I'd like that, bit I really don't fucking like it. Shits. I ticked like because it has been brought to our (Blog) attention, like most of these problems it usually get heard about as a side note. (probably because there are so many of them). I absolutely and whole heartedly agree with Destry54, I myself am on DWP disabilities, I won't go into the details but I would gladly see the last 8 years disappear - including the 22 months of no income that I had to endure. May he rest with the good and the great as any decent soul should. Peace. Short story: I once heard of a local man in his 50's years back who was undergoing open heart surgery and was told that he was fit for work by ATOS, I tell you no lie - I didn't hear what happened to him though. |

I will never forget the faces of the German professors arriving for a conference in Chicago on a scorching hot summer day when they realised that in that uncivilised country the only cold drink to be had was coca cola. A good long while ago I ordered a whole carafe of wine at a pizza place in Chicago. I was dining alone. Soon after, what seemed like the entire management team of the restaurant plus a concerned waitress descended upon me to enquire whether or not I intended to drink the entire bottle. At that time American wine was like mildly alchoholic Ribena so I assured them that I would drink all that seemed necessary and leave the rest untouchched and that I would pay for the complete carafe notwithstanding. This seemed to molify their disquiet but I was aware of frequent anxious glances towards my table as I completed my meal. |

The novelty has worn off. Today I'm closing the curtains and playing video games.

Why did Admin set up a Good Friday box and an Easter Weekend Box but not an Easter Monday Box? I mean, if Good Friday is not part of Easter Weekend, then neither should Easter Monday be.

Found the original thread HEREThe chat there seems a lot tamer than the later years of the box. Even the slagging is quite restrained. Your face's slagging is quite restrained. |

Hello.
Hope this Easter Monday finds you well.
TV. More Fleabag. Onto S2. it's ok. Nothing amaaaazing like twitter/the Guardian would have you believe. But then again I'm probably not the demographic.
Games. TheDivision. A few side missions with my pal who had the restraint not to play the night I wasn't on. Levelling up and getting some nice kit. A couple of high end guns and the like.
Grass to cut. Child now not going swimming so no daytime gaming.

It's people like that twerp 'Dillon', a few doors down who abuse the system. This is the emaciated teenager with alleged PTSD and schizophrenia. He's been verbally abusive to my 76 year old neighbour twice this weekend and even another neighbour who is in a wheelchair and has an oxygen tank. He's even threatened the pensioner with a 'kung fu kick'. He has NOT said so much as a word to me. Just as well. Anyway, got to go out shopping. Stay safe out there. |

He sounds like he might be fucked up and in need of love and treatment, but only able make a world of disaffection and isolation for himself. Or he might just be a dick. |

As far as I can work out, there's Le Phare du Cap Bon in a yellow tube and every other sort in a glass jar. The other sort is fine, but Le Phare du Cap Bon is the good shit, especially as a condiment. Yeah, yeah, I know, my face is the good shit, especially as a condiment. |

We use Al'Fez Harissa Paste from a jar, authentically made in the UK, still good though |
