    Ah Rube, that's very disfortunate (my new word) Is there another garage that could do it sooner?

    Another idea but probably useless, might your insurance company assist with a car rental?

    Forget the car. Spend the repair money on this instead.

    Would you look at the dust in here, no-one been in in ages, they are all off at that quiz thing. I'm going to give it a quick buzz round with the hoover and a bit of a dust, then put the kettle on. Tea anyone?

    Can't find OG's cabinet, did he take it with him? Well you'll have to bring your own beer. Or whatever you are having. I think the oul fellas find the beer a bit gassy, I've gone right off it. Not that I was a big beer drinker, preferred wine, but now I'd have a drop of brandy if it was offered. Think I would prefer a cup of tea to be honest.

    I got myself a new motor, a Toyota hybrid, very nice! Very economical on petrol and now I have got used to the automatic gears I wouldn't go back! So what else is happening, any news anyone?

    Congrats on the new hybrid (what does the "ota" bit refer to?)

    I'm just having a fish 'n' chip supper after the last opera in Wexford and a high quality fireworks display on the quays.

    Flaked out. Not sure I can be bothered to struggle into the PJs - may just sleep in the Tux.

    *snickers* not very well *tops up an empty gin bottle with tap water*
    A wee bit wet for London dry, why there is no rum I will never know but OG's taste has always been suspect.

    There are quite a few restrictions - sometimes the blood is for the tiny premature babies.

    Wanted to give blood a long time ago and asked my doc. I thought I heard him scream something like 'unclean, unclean'. But it might have been more like 'anemia, anemia', so I wasn't up to scratch it seems! :( But I still have all me own teef! :)

    I can recollect a time when you got a bottle of Guinnefs for a donation. Are we being short-changed nowadays?

    I think walkers taste very artificial.

    You cant beat a tayto sandwich.

    They won't take my blood cos I might have the Mad Cow. I'm reliably informed that 3 martinis a night is the recommended preventative.
