    Got on a bus today first time since March due to Covid, was good to give my feet a rest I must admit but I missed the long evening walk home.

    Also whenever I type Covid now I'm reminded of the old fella who has a fox come to visit him for scraps that he named Covid. All I can hear is him saying "Come on Covid where are ye!"

    Drinking whiskey. What else would you do of a Monday.

    Ruthlessly oppress the working classes?

    I think I might be in a minority in here in that I couldn't care less about branded teabags .
    Then again , the fact that I drink it like **** water , without sugar or milk probably has a lot to do with that :pac:

    (Awaits onslaught..)

    There'd be a bigger caffeine hit if I shake some dust out of the hoover & use that.

    Horrible muck that Maxwell House.

    I remember the ads in the eighties purporting it to be the height of sophistication :pac:

    I can imagine you in your country mansion stroking a cat and feeling very pleased with your work.

    I actually drink decaf coffee myself.
    I like the taste of coffee, couldn't care less if it's caffeinated or not.

    To thine own self be true

    What was the one where there was an ongoing will they/won't they budding romance between two decidedly middle class professional neighbours? It was definitely not for people who'd put the milk in first. Gold something. I think it was the first freeze dried instant.

    Nescafe Gold Blend, you'd be delighted to have it in the press to impress the neighbours.

    I'm not surprised you're blushing if you've been reading that cesspit.

    I would love to head to Birmingham. I'd love to drink my way down Broad Street.(Again):D You can certainly eat your way down it too. :D Half way down Broad Street, I'd like to stop at the Black Sabbath Bridge/Bench and take a long and much needed wee wee. So many great and honest bands came out of Brum and Black Sabbath were not one of them. Even the street this abomination is on, has feck all relevance to them.

    Kitchen table.:D

    Do you want a glass of whisky? I'd say you'd need a stiff drink after looking in there!

    My neck has loosened up quite a lot thankfully! Had a lovely walk this afternoon then came home and had a delicious lunch outside in the sunshine with my brother. Reading now. I'm wrecked tired but I'm resisting the urge to nap so that I'll sleep better tonight. (Sounds like I'm a toddler! :D )

    Just rinse your brain with bleach, you'll be fine if a few days. Serves you right, anyway.
