Hello from London!

[phil_o]

No! Not Leeds. Anywhere but Leeds!

My daughter tells me Leeds was the place of choice when going out for the night at uni.

Now Fleetwood is another story!

You may be a southern softie, but we love you!

Got to love him, but do you think he has fallen asleep on the bus, he is very quiet.

Gods own country

I’d rather be in Gods own country than this slightly god forsaken place. ( sorry Lincolnshire). To compensate I’m hitting them with a complicated London outfit.

Complicated for them or for you put on?

If he has, no drawing on his face ...

Something more then a socks and pants then.

LOl, just a little tash of the hitler kind.

It’s a bit “ Man-repeller”crossed with East London art gallery vibe. My sister thought it hilarious for a trip to a small town hairdressers but I’ve been watching the Alexander McQueen documentary on Netflix and am stubbornly unrepentant.

Are you all ignoring my post about Cracked Column or have you been too diverted by back boilers, pork pies, bus rides and Hitler.

 

[AlliaPotestas]

I’ve not been ignoring it, was just in meetings... but now eating lunch in the sky will dig out his page...

Which of you lot drew a Roland on my foreheorehead with a sharpie? Since when did the 391 stop at Lincoln's inn. (Lincoln's out in my book , even it's cathedral is very dark). I think someone must have spiked my Ovaltine.

It was me.

 

[Polranny]

It was me.

Roland is one thing, tolerable, but spiking my Ovaltine is a step too far. I shall write to the home secretary bod to criminalise it, making sure its backdated, so that you get vour cum uppance .
Like as not Angelica will come to my aid when she wakes up. She has medical knowledge, beware!

So on another note I have had a PM from one of my favourite Litsters Cracked Column - Him with with the marvellous “ day drinking “ personal ad. Could be the new avatar garnered me a response. In any event his message was as engaging as I could have hoped and he has given his blessing to us squatting on his thread should we so desire.

Nicely done, SL!

Both in getting a PM back and securing us squatters' rights.

 

[AlliaPotestas]

Wait until he finds out what you put in his pocket, Mr D <sniggers>

Dear AP, will there be lunchtime photography? You have a marvellous eye, two of them, perfectly placed, either side of your nose unlike what that odd fish, Picasso, portrayed

Absurdly sweet coming from a properly talented photographer like yourself,

Note to self - it’s windier 15 floors up and a skirt may not have been the best option...

Will she be wearing a nurse's uniform? <wags tail>

Pol - I think that you will just have to sleep this one off, my dear. As for Roland's portrait, perhaps some rubbing alcohol.

Nick - Bad dog. <said with mock scorn whilst smiling and skritching your bum>

I have no rubbing alcohol, I have a jeraboam of temprakneetremble and a litre of red bull in my overnight bag, will that work if I apply it with a loofah?

The day drunk space

Greeting from across the pond. It has to to my attention that y’all are looking for a place to camp out. You are more than welcome to use my humble abode. There’s plenty of room. No plants to water, a little dusty.

Suggested but not required: Boots. We have a fundamentally insane sticker bush population. Also yucca.
Incidentally my grandmother once went to war on all yucca everywhere. She would slip out of conversations, weddings, funerals, to snip the flowers off before they spread. Alas it was as effective as the Ausies’ emu war.

Also suggested that you wear sun protection. We get sun 300 days out of the year around here. It’s terrible if you have light eyes.

Requirements: you must swear upon the alter of misspent youth to never take anything in the tread seriously.

Perks: I day drink, so while y’all are hitting the booze at a respectable hour I will be abandoning responsibility with enthusiasm. So it washes out. Also I’m over 40 so I physically can’t be too irresponsible too often. So there’s lots of room to post.

Turn the light off when your done. Or don’t. It’s fine. the bills are being sent to all the long gone listers.

Maybe the Red Bull, god only knows what is in that. Just don't leave it on your skin for too long.

I think Nick wants you to look in your pocket.

Here's to day drinking.

Whatever it was , the temprakneetremble /red bull spritze dissolved it. Has anyone seen my liver ?

 

[Spiritedlady]

What an utterly fabulous bloke!

Lots of sunshine, a headstrong grandma, mentions of mis-spent youth (though I prefer to think of mine as well-spent in a hedonistic manner) and a warm welcome...**** Bloke, that one....

Back off - I saw him first.

Actually I didn’t .... AP did but I put the moves on.

 

[Crackedcolumn]

Well you’re most welcome. Hospitality is my thing. Or would be if I didn’t use it as excuse to refill my own glass.
Y’all caught me a a great time. It’s tax day here. Which means I took the day to deal with it. Which means I’ve finished and have now cracked the bourbon in a fit of Dre press ion and repression.

Also my dog is an idiot and ran off. Seriously how can something so small move so damn fast. I blame the neighborhood cats. The sneaky bastards.

Speaking of cats. I already miss yoga pants season. Does that make me a voyer?

In other news: I’ve lost my left shoe. Not even drunk yet. This could be a long day.

 

[Crackedcolumn]

Lol. You were bold enough to contact me first. Maybe Ap did. To be honest she may have and I was drunk and missed it. Judging my inbox, I missed a lot.

But it’s fine. You certainly did capture my attention. Not just your pic. But the hilarity of your thoughts on the gag reflex. So not sexy. I’m a sympathetic vomiter.

In other news: I think my new lit persona is like George contanza. In the episode where he walks away on a high note leaving the crowd wanting more.
(I just looked up that reference and it made me feel old…Bourbon the the resucue!)

How do you post photos? Is it easy to explain?

 

[Hurricane78]

London looks fabulous and “day drinking” is my phrase of the day. Time to catch up and open something

I think day drinking is a mission we could all get behind
