Another pointless thread

Hardgravity · 2010-03-20T11:18:21+0000

It's a while since we had a pointless, rambling topic. One where people could say anything, as long as it's not too serious! The last one went on for 7 pages, so here it is. I've just stacked 2 tons of wood in our wood shed.

His nibs celebrates his 65th next year, so we're taking the kids on holiday it seems.
Ruby wedding in 2015. Maybe they'll be taking us then.

Do what my husband does and ignore her big birthday. He's very good at that.

It's funny how birthdays group together in families isn't it?

My husbands ex girlfriend shared her birthday with her brother, sister and father and her mother's was a day later.
My husband and grandson share a birthday.

Names too - amazing how often a sibling marries someone with the same name as their brother/sister or their sibling's partner.
Two or my brothers have wives with the same name, I married an Alan and have a brother Alan (it was obviously a popular name in 1948!).
My daughter-in-law and her sister-in-law share the same name.

We both had a hangover after her 18th, but neither woui=ld admit it.

I'm too stubborn and she's too much like me!

He is saving (just with the money I've borrowed off him over tha past year...) Nah, I'll sort out my own party, still a year to go, it'll probably start with a Motorbike lesson, followed by a horrendous amount of drinking, powered by my minimal savings, including getting my Dad ridiculously drunk...
Like father, like daughter I guess...

Whatever my Dad's got in the house...

Just had to sit on the bus with the sun burning into the back of my neck whilst all the traffic was stopped so a fat guy in a white tracksuit (not a good look) could run past with an oversized lighter.

Seemed to be more of a free advertising event for Coke and Samsung with the entire police force supporting them.

Or am I missing something?
