Every Saturday I send my neighbour Tony, flowers with message: "I miss you lots"
Then I sit in the back garden with a beer and listen to his wife give him the third degree.

Asked the bank for a business loan and my bank manager questioned whether there was enough demand for my product to warrant a whole factory
I told him - If i build it....they will come

May your troubles be less, may your blessings be more, and may nothing but happiness come through your door.

A father asked his 10-year old son if he knew about the birds and the bees.

'I don't want to know,' the child said, bursting into tears.  'Promise me you won't tell me.' 

Confused, the father asked what was wrong.

The boy sobbed, 'When I was six, I got the 'There's no Easter Bunny' speech.
 
 At seven, I got the 'There's no Tooth Fairy' speech. 
 
 When I was eight, you hit me with the 'There's no Santa' speech. 
 
 If you're going to tell me that grown-ups don't really shag, I'll have nothing left to live for.' 

Reasonably!

No matter how dull your job there are ways to make it more interesting.

Eddie is the man, clearly...but all I would like to add is that the difference  I find between Belgian beer and some of the stronger stuff you get here is that they actually taste nice but not necessarily strong. The net result is that once you 've had a few you can get get p!ssed before you know it.
Enjoy, they do have wonderful beers!

If it's strength you want, then Samichlaus is worth looking at. Very expensive, but exquisite. I have a couple on order which I have never had before, one of which is Schwarzes, a black lager tipping the scales at 14%. Austrian, of course.
My favourite English beer is, without a doubt, Tynt Meadow, brewed at Mount St Bernard monastery, near Coalville, so it's our only Trappist beer. Not strong (7.5%), but a huge flavour bomb. It's an English-style dark/brown ale (think Robinsons Old Tom), but I think they use a Belgian yeast which gives it a wonderfully complex aroma and flavour.
Tynt Meadow first saw the light of day about 2 years ago, and really it wasn't that great. I think they had yeast problems, and the beer just didn't really cut it. Six months later, I tried another one, and the difference was substantial. I put that down to bottle-aging and the beer maturing over time, so I started buying the odd box from the monastery. It just seemed to get better and better, and now I think it's world class. Even the young bottles are delicious.

"The last dance" on Netflix, story of Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls. Obviously better if you are into basket ball but if you just like sports documentaries this is as good as it gets. Great insight into supremely talented athletes and their drive to reach and stay at the top. Can't wait for final 2 episodes next week.

An oeuf is enough

As a young boy Star Wars was the first movie my Dad took me to see at the cinema, before that (and youngun's won't realise this) all you had were 3 tv channels and maybe a couple of hours a day of kids tv at home, quite often in black and white only!  Now-a-days you can get entertainment 24/7 whatever your age.
Coming out of the cinema having witnessed quite possibly the greatest thing I'd ever seen at that age I was hooked for life.  I think a large problem with some of the later movies is that good sci-fi is common place these days and the core audience for Star Wars has always been the younger generation - we just got old and judge it through more cynical eyes.
I still enjoy Star Wars, even the lesser films.  I've read countless books, watched all the animated series and to this day continue to play Star Wars Galaxies (an online MMO that officially shut down years ago!)
Call me a nerd if you want, but I'm a proud Star Wars nerd ?

The hero we need in 2020...

Love omelettes me.

Thx Carl, started watching it on your recommendation along with my son, half way through and loving it so far.
Re. the sound fascinating is one way of putting it... we are both terrified by it at times but I get what you mean it plays a big part of the experience.
