Currently playing hide and seek princesses, no spice will be consumed here today. I've put the bag where I'd need to get ladders out to get it to try keep me safe!

Channel your balls of steel Kinetic
Hide and Seek princesses made me laugh. My niece always wants me to play Mummies and Daddies, and I always have to be the dad or the dog!

Kinetic and pickle keep the faith, I can absolutely assure you (having recently binged) that you are NOT missing out on anything, except perhaps an hour of feeling a bit buzzed and then 24hrs of paranoia, anxiety, self loathing and depression, you both know there are better ways to spend a day Flowers

Good shout, Flat it's not as great as you think it's going to be. The high isn't as high as you remember it.
I think it's easy to look at it with rose tinted glasses when you've been off it a while. I catch myself doing that sometimes.

The spicy food thing is because it does so well at clearing the palate afterwards (and makes you do a poo) Grin

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2017 18:08

How romantic Grin. Don't tell me about palate cleansers! I don't need to add more triggers to my looong list..

Pickle are you alright?

You're really making a meal out of this serial. I think you need to lie down on a soft Pilau.

I'm just waiting for Kinetic to say her dealer brings a curry starter as part of the service Shock

ZiggertyZaggerty · 14/03/2017 19:54

I'm handing out armbands - just popadom to keep you afloat... Hmm

ZiggertyZaggerty · 14/03/2017 19:56

Just queue up - no argy bharji.
I'll get my coat Confused

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2017 19:57

Ooh Zig you're good. I thought you'd gone all chilli on us. Rice to see you're still on board. ..

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2017 19:59

Hope we don't have Samosa board tonight.

We had to tikka it too far didn't we? Wink

ZiggertyZaggerty · 14/03/2017 20:20

You're right Serial. We should tikka this more seriously...

ZiggertyZaggerty · 14/03/2017 20:21

Ha Lost! Total cross post!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2017 20:24

I'm not tikki it personally... Really fancy a curry now Grin

ZiggertyZaggerty · 14/03/2017 20:27

I do hope Kinetic is staying on her board and is keeping away from the ladder. Flat,
you are so right about the small period of buzz compared to the looong feeling of crappiness and all the other shit that goes with it.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2017 20:32

Amen to that. If you're going to go up, you've got to come down. And it hurts.
