Modern Vespa

Back in my drinking days, I would always park my VW Beetle head-in at the bar.

Then, when I came out, if I couldn't find Reverse (VW People will know what I'm talking about), I knew I had to sleep in the car for a couple of hours before attempting the trip home.

Funny thing, my 2012 Golf, which is nothing like my 67 or 76 Beetle, still has the exact same Reverse. If I'm on the outside of the driveway, I have to move my car because my wife can't. She can't find reverse at all.

Maybe she's always drunk? Hmmm...

Sorry for not replying sooner Mr F. I only noticed your post on reviewing mine this morning. Nothing interesting. Just bog-standard beer but lots of it. I went to bed (well the sofa) about 4am. Got up at around 10am, had a few more cans, watched some tv and the ate a pizza. Then went to bed to catch up on some zzzzs. The beauty of it all is that i am off work for the next week!

Exactly. Good post.

I'll tell you my secret. Get drunk often, post regularly if you can, but start threads rarely. Anyway, who's drinking today? I got up at 4am today (had an early night you know), had a sweet tea and a strong coffee, broke open the first can at 6. Caught up on some tivo stuff (Daily Show, Would I Lie To You, Graham Norton Show and Revolution) and as Sheryl Crow said, I like a good beer buzz in the morning. Anyway, now I've mentioned Revolution, anyone else watching it? I find it very frustrating. It has some interesting ideas but the detail sorely lets it down. I have had fun looking for more The Stand references though.

OK I'll bite. I woke up and fed my feral cats(actually my brothers and sis in laws). We have spayed the mother, and we will take care of the other three when we can. We can't find homes for them, and I can't take them in, since I already have two babys.

Ey up Hank. What time is it in Texas? Is Texas on EST? Or RT? Have you started drinking yet? I mean alcohol, obviously.

Joe 90.. make the most of your boozy nights my friend.. cos in a few years time when Sharia law takes hold in England.. this will all be a distant memory..

Enjoy your Freedom while you can..

Starbucks coffee.Strong. Later the good stuff.

Ha! Will not happen. If it does, I am going to start up an illicit brewery. Prohibition does not work, as most Americans will tell you (and some British expats. heh!). Anyway, your point is moot as when I win the lottery I am moving to Iceland where booze is much cheaper than in the UK anyway.

Wow.You are actually ruder than me. Two thumbs up.

Hank. I thought my reply to blueridge was measured and proportionate. If a little sarco-ironic. Are the two thumbs because you liked it?

I think you need to do what your parents did. Get a job, sir!

Although appropriate, you do not need to address me as 'sir', Hank...BTW have you been on the telly?
