Another pointless thread

Tonic water minus the gin for a couple of weeks work bah! who needs to pay bills

I enjoyed a couple of glasses of red wine with the neighbours to celebrate a day of hard work putting up a new fence. The old one blew down in the storm.
His Nibs and Mr Neighbour enjoyed a Bokbier or three each.

A day shopping in York saw a bottle of Selby Townhall drunk with lunch.

A pale ale with a surprisingly high ABV(5%!)

Several glasses of rose with our evening meal went down well. Tonights meal, Grouse, is just calling for a wee dram to go with it...

That better G?

On being British

Being British is, driving a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer then travelling home so sit on Swedish furniture and watch American programmes on a Korean TV, having grabbed an Indian currie on the way.

And the most British thing of all?
Suspicion of all things foreign

In my next life, should I return as a human female, I shall make sure not to marry a sports fan.
What with cricket all night and rugby all afternoon it is all driving me even dafter than I already was.
Even the dog has had enough and joined me upstairs.

What's up Gwyn, the Grand Prix is next

We are watching something that isn't sport

When it comes to what to watch on TV Mrs Snap and I often have words, only I'm not allowed to use mine

The rugby was heartbreaking. But you can only respect the brilliance of the All Blacks.

And I get to watch whatever I want on TV. So long as she's out of the house at the time.

I have control of the remote as long as I do as instructed by her

I know the feeling well....

My favourite crossword setter has died. RIP Araucaria.

Not a Guardian reader but it's always sad to hear of the death of someone who gave pleasure to thousands. Admire the fact he donated parts for research. Used to do the Daily Mail puzzle and the Sunday Express skeleton but don't buy newspapers at all now

Just had a thought, there's a couple of parts of me distributed between Newcastle and Bristol

We have just watched wild Columbia with Nigel Marven - fantastic wildlife and some landscapes

It's on Eden plus 1 now - worth a go

I wanted to go with His Nibs when he visited Columbia, but he was flying at the pointy end, and I'd have needed to re-mortgage the house to buy a ticket to sit with hi. I didn't fancy a really long flight in the blunt end, with the ticket costing as much as a good holiday, since it would have been a full fare jobby.

He loved the little bit of it he saw. It is now on the long (and ever increasing) list of Things To Do When We Win The Jackpot.

I haven't checked the prices Gwyn to avoid disappointment
