You know when you're a heavy drinker when...

These made me chuckle...
  1. He's got a lot of willpower. He's finally given up trying to stop drinking. (thanks to Shane)
  2. She hates the sight of liquor. That's why she drinks it so fast.
  3. He's on the drinking man's diet. Now he's a skinny drunk.
  4. She's getting so high she's soon going to need a net under her.
  5. He deducts his booze costs because he drinks to others' health so often.
  6. Occasionally, she is held up going home. That's the only way she gets there.
  7. He believes in a balanced diet; a drink in each hand.
  8. She never plays "Spin the Bottle". She won't let go of it!
  9. His nickname is "Truck" because he always has a load on.
  10. It only takes one drink to make her drunk. She's not sure if it's the eighth or ninth drink, however.
  11. He only drinks on days ending in "Y".
  12. She only drinks when she has company or is alone.
  13. He is a public spirited person. He drinks spirits in public.
  14. She knows that alcohol is a slow poison. She doesn't mind, she's not in a hurry.
  15. When he's working overtime, he gets time and a fifth.
  16. When there is a nip in the air, she tries to drink it.
  17. If it wasn't for pretzels, he'd be on a liquid diet.
  18. In bars across the nation, she's one of the unsteadiest customers.
  19. He's the nicest guy on two feet. If he could stay there.
  20. When she catches a cold, she buys a bottle of whisky. In no time, it's gone. The whisky, not the cold.
  21. He's not one to do things halfway. He does them in fifths.
  22. When she comes back from lunch, she's so loaded she has to take the freight elevator.

Another cracking weekend....

Well, back to some semblance of reality after another funny weekend with Theresa and Co. It started on Thursday evening, a few beers then singing and dancing in Truck's kitchen, followed by an early wakeup call from Theresa, complaining about her hangover and how I should have stopped her from drinking...YEAH RIGHT!!!! I DID!, but I think by that stage it was too late.

Got up Friday morning, then Theresa picked me up and we went to Truck's for a good old fashion fry up, to take the edge of off the hangovers!

While we were at Truck and Mark's, Truck decided she wanted to empty the paddling pool and put it away, so I had the amusing site of two hungover women, sitting, kneeling and laying on an inflatable pool, trying to deflate it. This ended in much hilarity, as Truck and Theresa both sat on the edge of the pool, and fell backwards into the puddle Truck created when emptying the pool!! Funny as....see for yourself....


1) What are they doing??

2) I don't think they've planned this too carefully...

Theresa and Truck - They're SPECIAL....

Then, a trip to Gosport, down the beach, scoffing ice-creams, and trying not to have an accident, after eating a whole 250g bag of DATES the night before. That was scary!!

Saturday was another smokey day, nice chicken casserole at Theresa's (can that bird cook, or can that bird cook??!) , then Sunday, we finally made a start on the Raft!! Yes, you read correctly, RAFT. Somehow, we have all put ourselves up as a team in a charity raft race. We are all going to drown. But it's for charity. I'll post more about the race as it happens.

The Amazing Amy Macdonald

Well, although I love music, it's not often I will shout too loudly about a new artist, but I have recently got really into the fantastic Amy MacDonald, and her single "Mr Rock and Roll". I suppose it's partly because of the "I wish I'd known you sooner" lyrics, and they make me think about the limited time I had with Sharon, but also because I believe that Amy MacDonald is a fantastic talent, a great singer/songwriter, and she has a great vocal style.

If you want to check her out for yourself, have a look at her singing live instore, at Glasgow HMV
or, check out the video to her single.

Top banana, really.
