I love Port. Too much. It is best described as 'Red wine with sleeping tablets in it'. And Taylors is a good un. Maybe with some Boursin on a cracker or three. I like Taylors, recently I've been drinking Andresen LBV also good. |

If I understand correctly, the box's plan for staying awake all night to watch the election, is to start necking strong red wine with a few temazepam dissolved in it at about 6 pm?

I might use Xanax as well as/rather than Temazepam.

Surely mulled buckfast (aka Mucky) for the sugar/caffeine combo to keep you awake and angry though the vote count?

Port glasses are shit though aren't they? One gulp and you need to re-fill. I trust the chatterbox way is to simply use a wine glass or large plastic beaker? Almost. I once stayed at my sister in law's house and one afternoon helped her host a gathering of friends and neighbours. Busy with preparations, we had no time for lunch and by the time the guests arrived I was quite thirsty. I went to the kitchen where a number of wine bottles were laid out and poured myself a very large, refreshing glass of white wine, then sat down with everyone else. Then I discovered that the liquid in my glass was sherry. Couldn't really pour it down the drain, could I? I had it slowly, then a few lighter drinks afterwards. Later that day we visited more friends, an elderly couple. The husband was receiving cancer treatment at the time and couldn't get up from his chair, but was instructing his wife to pour us a drink. Sherry. His wife, who drank no alcohol herself, had no idea of the difference between Sherry and a soft drink. Which is how I ended up for a second time that day with a very large glass of sherry. I had no problems going to sleep that night. |

Technically I live in Aldridge-Brownhills. It's very slightly less safe than Sutton Coldfield. Very slightly. My mp is Wendy Morton. I have not heard of her doing a single thing in parliament. To get to work I travel out of Aldridge_Brownhills, into Sutton Coldfield, out of Sutton Coldfield, into Lichfield. It is a hefy trek. The whole distance is maybe 4-500 metres. Aha, I see, well still a Tory stronghold then? I used to live in Streetly as a nipper, but moved to Sutton (back to where my Mum is from) well before voting age. You work in Lichfield then? Small city. I go to the David Lloyd there although technically it's closer to Shenstone than Lichfield centre. |

No no no.
Just inside the Lichfield council area.
It's right on the border of Sutton/Lichfield/Walsall.
I have a lengthy trek through 3 council areas to get to work.
It takes about 5 minutes.
Lichfield would be ok to work in. I'd end up in Eastern Eye 4 times a week tho.

I learnt from the Brexit Party leaflet who my Brexit Party candidate is (not that I can vote for him or anyone else). It's this guy: whocanivotefor.co.uk/person/72548/joseph-tawonezviHis statement could have benefited from proofreading. More worryingly, if he's interested in supporting asylum seekers and concerned about the environment, maybe, just maybe the Brexit Party isn't for him. According to another website he used to be the "founder, director and consultant on a full time basis" of the Zimbabwe Investment Consultancy. He also used to be director and consultant of a company called Taw and Chapps Legal that "provides international student recruitment services". Their "University Partners" are South & City College Birmingham, the European University of Lefke ("the leading brand of education in the West of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus") and Neapolis University in Paphos, South Cyprus ("which is under the European Union and use the European Currency as their middle of exchange"). Not sure how this gels with his latest conviction but maybe the reason for this apparent change of heart can be found on this Company Check website companycheck.co.uk/director/915152822/MR-JOSEPH-TAWONEZVI/summaryOh. |

I couldn't wait until tomorrow, so have started BDT today.
I have three blood orange and cranberry sours, plus a yellow tail shiraz.
Kiss my face.

David Bellamy actually emotionally hurt me as a child.
I was really into Science and nature etc and was chosen to meet him and give a presentation on Habitats (if memory serves) I was eight. I was really excited as I watched him on TV...and he cancelled at the last minute. Ended up meeting a Lady something or other.
Now Im not saying Im the most damaged a BBC presenter has left a child but Ive never forgotten it.

I am sad that Bellamy died, for me he sat only below Attenborough in the nature program stakes and had clear headroom above Packham and Strachan. He had a few good stoner gone crazy stories too.
Anyhoo, I’ve gone full Destry with a few pints and a steak in ‘spoons. My brother will get me a Steam game tomorrow for Xmas, but I have not decided which game yet.

It’s important to stress it’s not your fault man, they should have been there. |
