    TG, epic comeback with the text! Well done. I hope she takes a long hard look at herself. Cheaters actually disgust me.

    Aye they disgust me too. What's the point in it really? But that's another rant for another time... for another forum. :pac:

    In other news that 'Earthquake' song by Labrinth and Tinie Tempah has been stuck in my head no end.

    I reckon I will end up like scrooge in my old age.

    Bah humbug. :mad:

    "Fire, Fire".

    That songs reminds me of my time on placement in Mullingar. The girl I was with constantly went around saying "Fire, fire" and I was like :confused: I like the song now.

    I think I may have walked past Black Oil today. If he smokes and wears brown shoes then that was him. And if it was, I have a deadly memory. If it wasn't.. oh well.. :pac:

    SUN - a walk is good to clear the head. Takes effort if you ain't feeling great but once you're out and about you feel better.

    Long ass walk to the social to drop in my certs done. Ended up going for a wander too, to make the walk longer because although I don't like walking when I'm feeling lazy, it'll save me going for a jog tonight. :)

    Now to peel a mountain of potatoes because I offered to cook dinner for 6 people tonight. I'm such an idiot. :pac:

    Time for coffee, Red Bull and more coffee. :D

    God TP, that's old news now, you really are showing your age now as you can't even keep up with the thread :pac:

    Lynda, red bull really isn't good for you. You could peel the potatoes sitting down, that would save energy!

    Oh, I know. I used to be completely addicted to it. I was drinking 8 cans a day at one stage. I have about one can a week now usually. Ended up just having coffee anyway. It filled my stomach so I didn't want the Red Bull. :)

    :pac: That's not why I'm sick. I'm on stress leave because of a serious assault. :p But yeah, I was destroying myself with it. Stopped that nonsense about 6 months ago and feel fantastic now, and actually have more energy. I find going running and things like that gives me more energy in the long run than a Red Bull :)

    Yikes, are you a nurse or how did that happen? I love the cycling buzz, nearly as good as the sex buzz, but red bull isn't a patch on that!! I only drink redbull with vodka when I have to show people (Awec) how to drink :pac:

    Nope, just a retail worker! Can't go into detail for legal reasons but one of my superior colleagues has a bit of a temper and took it out on myself and another lady, so I'm off til the HR department respond to my complaint! I still can't cycle. I need to re-learn. For the moment, it's all running and rollerblading! I only really drink red bull with Jager, when I'm racing Jagerbombs. Still want to find someone who can beat me at that, the person who manages to beat me at that will get a free drink from me!

    It's so disgusting the quicker you can get it down the hatch the better to be honest.

    Red bull is vile, jaeger is vile, putting the two together is totally vile.

    Jager really is vile tbh. But I find if I knock it back as a Jagerbomb, I'm fine. It's kind of like beer. I don't particularly love it, but I've gotten used to the taste.

    Strawberry daquiris, omg. Best thing ever.

    Good god, I want one now.

    Hmm. Not totally sure of my tolerance because I've lost a hell of a lot of weight in the last year so my tolerance has lowered. It depends. Some nights, I'm wasted after 6 drinks. Others, I can drink all night. If I'm drinking slowly, I can manage 7 or 8 Jagerbombs and a few pints, maybe a shot or two, but I'd be drinking most of that through the whole night, not just over a few hours. I can drink a good bit, but wouldn't be a very heavy drinker usually.
