Guinness n' Rollies 2: Off Topic Chat Thread

Blowfish

I still have an unopened bag of sugar I bought when I moved into my flat 3 years ago.

No idea what state it's in now, but I kind of like leaving it there unopened as a symbol.

I don't use sugar in tea, a small bit in coffee as I find it fairly bitter but apart from that, I wouldnt be a big fan of sweet things..

Savoury stuff is my downfall, cheese, crackers, crisps etc

Trick is to drink real coffee. Ground beans and use a drip filter or a french press! this tastes better than instant (by a great deal) and cuts out the need for sugar or milk!

I used to have both in my coffee but now it's black! you can taste the coffee more that way!

And if coffee is too bitter for you....go with a medium or blonde blend!

Used to have a perculator and thought it was the nicest coffee of all time....until I got a Philips senseo pod coffee machine for half price - my life hasn't been the same since.

I've also started using cream in my coffee rather than milk - sooooo much tastier imo

Sugar? Gave it up two years ago. Wasnt easy, but cutting it completely worked for me.

Also looked up that Necronos uncut video trailer mentioned in the beers thread, very cheesy, with some nekkidness and blood? Thumbs up!

Can't wait to go for a run in a while, after a 14km walk through town to North Bull Island yesterday, it'll be nice

I went for a 14 km walk this morning!! It was so nice!

Might go on another short one later on just to keep busy!

Im hoping to start running soon just building it up for the moment

Woke up this morning with the sun streaming through my window and it made me think of this song. My (un)reliable memory tells me that this was playing as I woke up every single sunny morning of my childhood. Love it!

I saw that on Twitter as a suggested game and the last time I did drinking games was with the Eurovision and it was not my best idea.

What did ye drink for? Every country ye hadn't heard of? You totally owe her breakfast!

I love waking up Saturday morning and not having a hangover! I don't love neighbours having all night parties where one couple decide to air their woes out on the street at 7am though.
Get back into yer party ye drunken hapes!

herisson

I went on the nicest walk earlier coz i woke up really early!

Need to figure out what to do with the rest of my day, but i have limited options seeing as i havent been paid yet!! They pay monthly but i wasnt paid last month and i wasnt paid this month either

Every country we didn't know location of.

It was a bit unfair as I actually have a better knowledge of geography than her, and she's never watched the Opening Ceremony before. But that's a minor detail :pac:
