Re: July Army Thread 2019

Was vodka your drink Bridge? I always fond that if i drak vodka i really never knew when to stop. I just didn’t get drunk.... until i did and then it was very messy. Same with gin and not so bad with JD. i think because of the mixers it made it harder to judge than wine.
.

In the end I only liked vodka and rose. I realised by then that I actually did not like alcohol and was only drinking it to feed my addiction. Besides you can't smell Vodka, can you? I didn't try to pull myself up at all. The only safety valve that I employed was to buy half a bottle on work nights. Because it is perfectly OK to drink half a bottle of vodka every night before work. Helps productivity. Very expensive to buy it that way btw. Tut tut. Weekends just stock up and drink to pass out. Send the boy out for more if needs be. Knew I helped him get his licence for something. Apparently he didn't already have enough to worry about

This pain must be very wearing for you Starty. It's easy for me to say but press on. Better times ahead.

JC, I am ridiculously bad at relationships so can't really help. The only thing anyone every said to me that made sense is this: You get what you settle for.
Sitting up in bed like queen muck here and contemplating a nice day in the garden and pottering around followed by the latest episodes of Gardener's World on Daily Motion - with no hangover to deal with

Night all,
Sorry [MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION], that is tough. Its been a stressful year, with the house, wedding plans, stints of not being well, all adds up. What Bridge said is very true, Im going to keep that in my back pocket.

Night, 18k run in the morning. Try that with a hangover..

Re: July Army Thread 2019

Late check-in from me.
We've talked. Bit of shouting from me, unfortunately, I sounded like an old crow with only one leg hanging on to a branch for their life. Its cleared the air.
I'm not expecting roses, a yacht or diamonds just some of his time.

Anyway who started the rumour that vodka doesn't reek?

Re: July Army Thread 2019

Re: July Army Thread 2019

Morning,
[MENTION=9757]NoraC[/MENTION]...........she's a darling and a little bird told me it's her birthday today. Look at the length of her legs.........a future model or a basketball player in the making or both????
[MENTION=22456]starty[/MENTION]............a baby hedgehog. How precious. You're doing so well with your hip. Just keep doing what you're doing.

[MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION] - that's a good thing maybe. Some people just feel safer. Will Da-in-law go too ?

Re: July Army Thread 2019

Thank you VERY much [MENTION=17632]Mr Vervill[/MENTION] (kept you some party cake!) and [MENTION=9757]NoraC[/MENTION]. And you granddaughter is absolutely gorgeous!! xx
[MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION], Satz has a point, could be a positive thing. Maybe she knows Mr JC will be tying himself in knots trying to look after her. Did you come to any conclusion between you?

Re: July Army Thread 2019

Evening,
Well, scrap that idea from Ma-in-law. Sis-in-law was up there today and Ma has decided to stay at home and have a carer come to the house and a cleaner :egad:
Ma is seeing her doctor tomorrow and going to set it all in motion. We're flabberghasted. Mind you, God help them if they don't wipe their feet when they go into the house.

Those shoes are what me and my cousin sitting down shoes.

[IamMary]

Re: July Army Thread 2019

well Ive taken off my sitting down shoes now. Thats great news all round JC.. they are all action!
