Thursday plays first day of the month bingo

There’s a tiny street in York called Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma Gate and it feels like everything I’ve accomplished in life will be irrelevant if I don’t find it.

autumn certainly knows how to read a calendar, it's particularly nippy on the cockles today

cooking up an Irish stew later to warm them through

Whenever we visit Oxford we always have to make sure we go up St. Mary's Passage. No trip is complete without it.

...and you must have a skip down Dyke Street when you're in Brighton.

Sadly, Slut's Hole Lane in London was renamed, IIRC....

Its very underwhelming

I believe this will end in Shambles.

I am currently debating whether to bleach my hair again. Is this the start of a personal crisis?

 

[COB]

Yes.

 

[ButterTart]

Well, York is lovely and surprisingly sunny. I think I’ve managed to find the roughest pub in town so I can drink here without diminishing my brand.

I keep waving at people but so far none of them have turned out to be Indie or That One.

 

[ButterTart]

I’m just saying if you run a very popular cocktail bar, why would you only have three staff on?

Started my new job today, decided to join in the group Teams chat and just say hello, low key, looking forward to working with you all, and it appears it's a THING that lots of people reply with GIFs. LOVELY. I know how to use GIFs. Then someone said "Welcome! We've all been worried about what you're like- it's scary to have a new boss" and I thought it was the perfect time to reply with a GIF. And I found one! Of Austin Powers, which said "I don't bite".

Or it did in the preview- no more than that. When I posted it, it played on further and had Austin's face turn all pervy and finish "I don't bite..." with "...HARD!". So basically the first communication I had with the entire company was their new Managing Director sending that to a 25 year old ish, attractive blonde girl.

I could have cried.

And here we see the evil of gifs. MOOPY TAKE NOTE.

 

[ButterTart]

I’ve had an Old Fashioned, the evening’s going well.

 

[Lucille]

Now to squeeze 7 more in before 10pm.

Oh no. They'll all think you're a pervert. Quick, show them the picture of you dressed as Cher to set their minds at rest.

[ameraal]

how long does the effect of a fucking red bull last? i had one hours ago (it'd been in my fridge since new year's) and i'm on the verge of making jokes about dead people (still)?

Last year I had a wisdom tooth extraction where they had to remove part of my jaw bone because they couldn't get to the tooth, followed by a root canal. That wasn't a good day for Iguana

Oh I had one of them too.

It was the day that confirmed to me that local injections are not all that effective on me. I had about 6 that day.

Which pub? I'm sure I can point you to rougher ones.

 

[Iguana]

Oh God, that's horrible. The local injection worked at the time - it was just when it wore off during the following week that my mouth hurt so much I was screaming.

It's funny though, I don't remember how the pain felt now at all, other than that I was in pain

 

[ButterTart]

Which pub? I'm sure I can point you to rougher ones.

I think it was called Terrace? Big bugger on a corner.

 

[Indie]

I wouldn't call it rough, but I certainly wouldn't frequent there.

All the excellent pubs we have and you choose that one? I despair.
