I’d say you need more information, @fatso :lou_sunglasses: (and yes, while I aim for The Dude, the sad reality is that I’m mostly Walter. Not wrong. Just an asshole)

Walter Sobchak (played by @pap ):
Were you listening to The Dude’s story, Donny?

The Dude (played by @goatboy ):
Walter…

Donny (played by ) @fatso :
What?

Walter Sobchak (played by pap):
Were you listening to The Dude’s story?

Donny (played by Fatso):
I was bowling.

Walter Sobchak (played by pap):
So you have no frame of reference here, Donny. You’re like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know…

The Dude (played by Goatboy):
(interrupting) Walter, Walter, what’s the point, man?

Walter Sobchak (played by pap):
There’s no reason - here’s my point, dude, there’s no reason, no fucking reason why these two…

Donny (played by Fatso):
Yeah, Walter, what’s your point?

Walter Sobchak (played by pap):
…No reason that these two people should be imagined by someone that won’t go to the pub.

Voice in distance, possibly @barry-sanchez
It really ties the forum together

Pap has lost it.

He expects us to read that last post on the slightly pickled thread.

SRSLY?

@dubai_phil , I think it important to know that I broadly divide humanity based on an appreciation of The Big Lebowski. Before the accusations of elitism roll in, I never judge anyone that has only seen it once and didn’t like it.

Is that Lebaneseski thing on Netflix?

Had a few gin and lemonades at a friend’s wedding reception last night down in a little village in Dorset. There was a Ceilidh which was quite fun.

One of the bride’s oldest friend’s also works for the same borough as me. So that was amusing.

Good lord.

I blame Gods

When was Friday?

Might sober up by then

Ouch

Off to Winchester to sip prosecco and nibble on a cucumber sandwich - or drink beer and eat a kebab, not decided yet!

It’s Tuesday, FFS

It’s also Easter hols, so no work for Bletch tomorrow. But I think he’ll have to head back to Eastleigh for the kebab. I mean, a kebab shop? In Winchester? Perish the thought.

Correct. Schools out for Easter!

However wrong about kebabs.

Next to the Albion by the tattoo parlour down the hill from the station.

Had many a kebab in there.

Fallen asleep in there too more than once.

Jeez, you lot still doing Easter?

Easter twas early this year @dubai_phil and, as such, threw the school’s regimented 6 weeks-1 week break-6 weeks terms into chaos.

They only just managed to finished the spirng term in time for Good Friday.

Ah cheers BT.

Right. 2 solid days of cleaning up a clustefvck someone else had made of an excel sheet.

Work tomorrow includes training on new products and a TV Interview (go me)

Then PACKING

Then we discover that it is actually going to be hitting 26C in Poland next week - no air con, no electric fans. FFS we wanted out of the damned heat!

Have to redo all my planned packing now and add a pair of shorts ffs

Cancel Poland. Come to the UK which seems to have forgotten what spring is.

Mrs D_P has just learnt that it is unwise to drink 1/8th of a bottle of Scotch.

Hit the shiraz in the local last night and started on a 10 ltr box of merlot when we got home. Was hammered and it was only Wednesday night. Peaked too soon. Head a bit sore this morning.
