🎄 New Year

[Cobham-Saint]

Rick’s extravaganza was good

He’s a mean drummer!

[PhilippineSaint]

Thank fuck that is over, and the offices on the beach are open so I can start buying spares to keep this vessel operating.

Do they ever view anything IRL?

[CB-Saint]

Reminds me of this one

[CB-Saint]

Saying that, one year the Ayatollah almost wiped out the peloton at the tour because she was trying to get a picture and didn’t appreciate a) how fast they go and b) how close they ride to the edge of the road.

She got a good dose of invective in multiple languages from the riders

[scotty]

This seems appropriate for the above sentiments…

Please don’t take this personally but Lady Slowlane and I are reviewing our Christmas card list this year and you, dear Sotonians fall into the “Online Best Wishes” category.
Since Starmer’s relentless attack us, the needy and vulnerable, we’ve had to make cuts in our staffing. The rise in National Insurance and postal charges means painful cuts had to be made…

You shouldn’t have.

No. Really.

[lifeintheslowlane]

Generous to a fault, that’s me.

Back to square 1

The ayatollah is going full Griswald

She has decided the 4m conifer out the front needs decoration

Joy of joy. 4m up a ladder trailing lights. That will end well.

Anyway tree 1 of 4 up. Beer 3 of many drunk.

Could well do…it could be blown down overnight.

People should be shot for putting a tree up in November

[CB-Saint]

Risk of maybe getting shot for putting a tree up in November vs the risk of definitely getting shot for not putting up the tree in November

Ayatollah wins. Every. Single. Time.

[scotty]

Not a peep from the bird yet, other than briefly suggesting we might take a look at trees in the local farm shop sometime soon when we drove past it yesterday. I offered to stop there and then, but she demurred saying it’s way too early yet, maybe in a week or so.

I’ve said it before, but this one’s a keeper.

[CB-Saint]

The upside of having a real tree is needle drop anxiety so it’s easier to keep them at bay

The down side of my pathological hatred of real trees is that she can bring forward the erection. Sadly not the one I’m after.
