It's a weekday before 5pm, but it's fucking freezing, work has been a bag of shite, and my washing machine has just packed in.

Cheers all! 😂😭🍸

When DM died, I cleared the house & took home a large bottle of Baileys.

It was off. I think I cried more at that than at her funeral.😀😂

No Baileys but I just ate a bag of chocolate coins meant for one of the kids stockings. It is freezing and I needed cheering up - that is my excuse anyway.

OMG we do get it here!!

I don't know why I've never noticed it, but we do have a good array of choices in this department.

My ds (who is an adult btw) also had a bit of a bad day and so he just brought me a shot of caramel vodka to schnarff down with him . I'm going to be quite pissed on a Tuesday night. And why is everyone having such a crap day today? It's not even a Monday....

I don't think I have, but if you love coffee flavoured liqueurs you must try Kahlua as it's gorgeous!

I love coffee flavoured anything so will be sourcing myself a bottle of that!

MorrisZapp · 08/12/2022 17:54

Had one yesterday

maryofthevirginkind · 08/12/2022 17:57

Cheers I'm having a Prosecco 😀

KatherineofGaunt · 08/12/2022 17:57

I have my incredibly large Baileys too. Plus I took my hearing aids out - peace and quiet plus a delicious, chocolate-y, alcoholic drink. Merry Christmas!

(Must source some tiramisu Baileys!)

midnight90 · 08/12/2022 17:57

Yep same 😁
Cheers

Alas Baileys doesn’t mix well with Lemsip so I’ll pass .

But a Baileys in the cocoa when I’ve just got home from the last chilly night shift in the morning , knowing that I haven’t got to rush to get up …. That’s the dogs danglies .

Just having some pink fizz. Cheers! 🥂🥂🥂

Thanks for the washer advice, I've tried removing the tube, I've also opened and emptied the filter to check it's not blocked, nowt. Its just not going round. Bastard.

I'll just carry on drinking and worry about it tomorrow.

DH says can we ("we" 🤣🤣) not just hand wash things til after Christmas. He's hilarious and adorable. Nope, it's going on the credit card.

I ran out of Bailey's but am having a vodka

BamBamBilla · 08/12/2022 18:08

No Baileys so brandy will have to do

mumda · 08/12/2022 18:09

Put it in a coffee. Or a hot chocolate.

You're welcome.

RumNotRun · 08/12/2022 18:09

You evil vipers! I have been trying to forget the Bailey's I have in my wine cabinet (that rarely has any wine in it), but now I feel I have to open it in solidarity.

Someone on here once shared their "grown up" version of Bailey's. Vanilla vodka with Kahlua. It is very nice and far too easy to drink too much of.

Ratched · 08/12/2022 18:10

Baileys wouldn't cut 8t forme tonight.
Just had cat put to sleep. Am in bits, and also 2 large G and Ts in.

FestiveCrunch · 08/12/2022 18:10

Cheers from here too!
I've just had a second sherry 😁

Spacebears · 08/12/2022 18:12

Reading this whole thread in jealousy tonight. Pregnant and irritated!

Oh for fucksakes 🤣🤣

I'm blaming the vodka for that one...

I know we have a time difference but not quite that drastic 🙈🤣

N0RKS · 08/12/2022 18:15

Christmas milk!

Swashbuckled · 08/12/2022 18:16

Well, I just poured my first Baileys of the year thanks to this thread 😊

I'm so sorry. Flowers You deserve that gin.

I drank 2 bottles of wine when I lost my cat a couple years ago. Needs must sometimes.
