30s TTC. It was the BESHt of times,it was the worst of times, it was the age of rummaging in gussets, drinking gin.....

[ginhag]

C'mon in BESHes to the beach bar...sprawl on comfy sofas while you wiggle your toes in the sand and watch a glorious sunset....and drink brightly coloured cocktails with sparklers in. Cos we're classy,innit.

I've got Adam and joe in as barmen, and we have a rather nice Cave of Gloom in the corner for those 'whyyyyyy meeeeeeee???' moments. We have a reggae sound system playing mob barley's greatest hits. It's a sunshine paradise!

Newcomers welcome,as long as they drag along a bucket of black humour and a vast amount of gin. And please note,some of us have been here so long we have forgotten the real world almost entirely.

Now,who's getting the next round in?

Can you believe we're on 877 messages? This thread has meandered around and gone nowhere. Here's hoping to a better one next time round (apart from DanielSan of course. Or was that on the previous thread? And Salt of course).

Weren't we thinking of some Marie Lloyd music hall theme? Or was that just me being a twat?

Hello MountedPolice. Hope you've emerged unscathed from Exam Hell.

I think ChoChoPops was the end of the t'other thread. SaltnVinegar is our only one for this thread. Congrats missy, hope it's a good old sticky one.

Maybe the next thread will be the proper start of the mass summer diffment project?

Really must do some work today. Can someone catch me up on the fred happenings?

I am very excited. I'm officially being allowed a day off by Hitler MrA and I'm going to my friend's for the weekend, who's having a housewarming party in her new pad in Devon. My bestest, oldest chums will be there sans husbands and kids. I've got a hangover just thinking about it, but it will be worth it. Only problem is, IT'S ON DAY FOURTEEN! WHATEVER SHALL I DO? SHOULD I EVEN GO?

Fuckitt

grinhag! Does that mean what I think it means?

shag and run rierie, shag and run. Those little swimmers can survive a few days, so just get plenty of 'em in there before you go and have a great time.

Congrats of surviving examinage mountie!

Hope all the twatty other halves are behaving better today.

I have two possible meanings for grinhag's behaviour. You just having a giggle with yourself or have you something to share?

Gin don't worry about Mr G...we need to know first ...if you will remember I didn't tell the boyf until the morning after I tested, because I didn't want the announcement to be slurred, following a BESHfest of 'Bad Lieutenant' proportions!
