    i've never tried one of those jagerbombs, though i have no interest in "racing" them...

    Racing can be fun but expensive!

    And if you don't drop the shot in and knock it back, it's not even a Jagerbomb, it's a Flying Stag apparently.


    There's one drink that I swear, I will never drink again despite only having one. It's called a Carbomb. Worst thing I've ever had the misfortune of tasting.

    haha, no. I drop the shot in and knock it back. But apparently if you just mix the Jager in with the Red Bull and drink it like a normal drink, rather than downing it, it's called a Flying Stag.

    Huge in America. It curdles which makes it horrible. Although after the day I've had in work i'd gladly drink anything right now!

    <3 Disney. Yes, yes I is child :o

    Nothing worng with that. I love animation too, though I've yet to meet anyone who would rate Basil the Great Mouse Detective as highly as I do. Actually, I've had to listen to my work buddies telling me how great Toy Story 3 is so I may look into picking up a box set. It's been years since I last watched the first, which I'd still rate as the best Disney Pixar film, so that'll definitely be a night well spent.

    I believe there are a few moments in life that people always remember and I'd say that your first own sofa is one of them, love mine though it's covered in work shirts at the moment. Fits perfectly in my room though I'd to carry it up a ladder onto the roof to get it in the window of my room as I incorrectly measured the size of the staircase :D

    G'Afternoon all by the way, on a late lunch at the mo, I just want to be lazy today but I'm too stubborn not to force myself to go running later :)
    I am actually thinking of taking myself to see Beauty and the Beast at the weekend :D
    My sofa rocks - it's petrol blue leather and sooo comfy!

    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.
    QFT. Fecking hate jagerbombs. Sambucca ftw.

    ! 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!

    BRING IT ON!!!

    Who was that?

    Yes, I do. Not going to say where for obvious reasons. Thankfully, I'll be back in college soon, so I can make something of myself instead of wasting the qualifications I already have. :pac:

    Science and acting. I have a diploma in Science, had to drop out of my degree course to become my mum's carer. Been doing acting since I was a kid, all the exams and that stuff done. I'm going back to do IT, then when I qualify in that, I'll fund my way through a Psychology course because I eventually want to be a cognitive behavioural therapist! :)

    Pem sounds like a crazy drinker. :pac:

    Would it not be better to just do the psychology course? What will IT give you? I love science :D

    I was for a while!

    Yeah, it'd be much better, but you have to do personal therapy before you qualify, and I can't afford that til I'm in a better paying job, so IT it is! :pac: I love Science, but I couldn't see myself working in it. Genetics was always my favourite, organic chem was my worst.

    So you are doing an IT degree to make lots of money to study something else :confused:

    Basically I'm doing IT because I have a genuine interest in it and always have, but Psychology is the thing I want to eventually do. I don't want lots of money, but to study Psychology, I need a steady job, and IT is a steady sector to work in at the moment. It's a means to an end tbh.

    That said, I could love it and never do psychology in the end.
