It's Friday. I have some beers in and it's getting late, so I'll be having a drink or two shortly. Cheers!

Bit late but I'm cracking open a beer.
No work for a week so might as well take advantage.

I'm sorted.
Just back from spending xmas with my other half & her family & although I've had the odd beer / wine (not much time to what with culinary assistance & finding batteries for the grandkids for all manner of strange & wonderful toys + putting together a 200 piece playmobil police station..) don't feel like I've had a 'proper' drink so just cracked open the scotch & chasing it down with some guinness... ahhh! Happy 27th December to me

As it happens, I'm having a drink too. Been dry for a couple of months.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

My nephew got one of those nerf guns for xmas. I was watching the telly and he comes right up to me and fires it point blank into my ankle. Little bleeder. Of course I don't react at all. So he looks at me and says 'Did that hurt?' I said 'Did what hurt?' Should have seen the look of disappointment on his little face.Originally Posted by Roy S

Also had a game of Subbuteo but they were cheating ridiculously so it broke down.
