So my (usually very sensible and boring self) has recently discovered that I have a first class degree…
which coincided with some excellent offerings from Glastonbury so I woke up drunk today. DS was delighted to find he had a slice of farmhouse cake for breakfast before DH took him to school. I’ve decided that I must spend the morning watching ‘Withnail and I’ which is proving to be an excellent choice while experiencing a ‘bastard behind the eyes’ and I ‘feel unusual’. Anyone else absolutely love this film ?

"Monty you terrible cunt!" used to be my message alert. Used to be hilarious on the bus (I no longer use public transport) 🤣

Also:

"Are you the farmer?" "Stop saying that Withnail, of course he's the fucking farmer!"

Best line out of a film ever ❤️

Saw Richard E Grant live recently - came on and quoted Withnail

“All right, this is the plan. We get in there and get wrecked, then we'll eat a pork pie, then we'll drop a couple of Surmontil-50's each. That means we'll miss out Monday but come up smiling Tuesday morning.”

this could be the next stage of your celebrations

Have you got a cat that is always pressing for advantage and only thinks if it's stomach. Is it like a bloody rugby ball as it is?

I hope you had some stout rubber boots for Glasto. And that Monty gave you the fiver to buy them with.

Pretty much the plan here. I am the biggest wimp when it comes to the hang. I’m drinking beer till lunchtime and boshing a couple of Benadryl and I’ll come up smiling Thursday .

Have you checked whether there's a large black man in your bathtub?

Bloody love this film. DH just doesn't get it (philistine).

Doubt it. Man delights not me, no nor woman neither.

Congratulations!

This is a far superior drink to meths, the wankers don't drink it because they can't afford it.

a bit early for festivities, isn't it?

Not my fave, but my husband continues to recite, replay, requote and mimic lines from the film on a sporadic basis. " From cult to classic " He LOVES it 🙄

That bloody cat is obsessed with it's guts!
We need garlic, rosemary and salt.
