Yes, no more train spotting chat!!

I'm adding Films with a drug theme on my trigger list. Grin What a head case.

Feeling so tired at work. I keep drifting off into daydreams, struggling to stay alert. It's lucky I don't have an important job like a heart surgeon or working for MI5.

Have a good Friday, hope we've all got some fun non drug related weekend plans!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 04/08/2017 19:35

Greetings from Cotswold Break. In a hotel that's above its station, there's dregs of a wedding and a load of golfers. Still it's nice to be away getting high in a different surroundings Wink

How's everyone's weekend been? Not gonna lie spent a lot of this morning reading all the now deleted threads about the SurreyTimes thing. Wild!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 06/08/2017 20:47

I missed all that Serial. Just Googled SurreyTimes and got some boring Surrey based news..? Grin

Been out for the day and then on to a (very restrained) bbq. I'm absolutely knackered/ moderately pissed.

I think all the other surfers are either on exotic holidays or posh mini breaks in the Cotswolds.
Hope you remembered to pack your surfboard Dusty.. Wink

Surrytimes posted on here cos his wife was dying of cancer (sad) turns out he was allegedly scamming money off folks and sexting em. Makes us bunch of druggies look like upstanding pillars of the community!

HoochiMama · 07/08/2017 01:32

Hello lovely Surfers, I'm still here, just lurking at the moment as we're in the US and didn't want to show off Confused It's all sparkly and Disney over here so no chance of going overboard wouldn't dare! Been dragged on every rollercoaster imaginable and eating mainly junk, oh the portion sizes! Not even drinking much as too knackered after all the running about. Hope you're all keeping well, Lost honestly what did you expect after watching Trainspotting, I did chuckle - soz! xx

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 07/08/2017 14:02

I don't mind you showing off a bit Hooch it sounds amazing and very Disney! I take pleasure in other people's leisure..Wink
I'm expecting you back all detoxed with Mickey Mouse ears.

I saw that thread a few times Serial What a shocker! Don't worry we won't start asking you for money or erm sexting. They'll be none of that here, just gratuitous drug taking and copious amounts of alcohol, mixed in with some healthy paranoia and self loathing. Hmm

On that note, have a great week all!

No sexting here, we're Columbian.

Have a lovely holiday hooch!

ponzusoup · 07/08/2017 16:10

I'm by a pool in forty degree heAt. Not missing dipping off the board at all. Hope that continues at home...

Waves to everyone.

serialtester · 07/08/2017 16:43

Lucky you ponz!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 07/08/2017 16:48

Overcast with drizzle here Ponz. The secret to quitting must be lying poolside in extreme heat, that sounds like my kind of rehab..
Glad you're having a great time.

Eastbourne for me next weekend, woohoo what the fuck were we thinking

OP posts:
DustyDuck · 10/08/2017 22:01

Well, how are we all doing? Caught up in the drama of the weekend on mumsnet and too invested to post on here ?
Ever so slightly French, terminally unemployed and just looking forward to the weekend....
after next, promised each other we'd surf through till the bank holiday.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/08/2017 23:07

Hello Dusty Smile I'm just off to bed.. haven't had much to report as I've been a boring fucker this week, mainly working and having early nights. Being unemployed sounds quite appealing..

Surfing through til Bank holiday is indeed a good plan. I'll try to join you.
See you in the Danger Zooonnneee..x

Morning, been a busy old week here. Am going out tonight. Still surfing though.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 11/08/2017 17:51

Have a good time tonight Serial! Wine

Feeling a bit stressed and Danger Zoney here. Really don't want to go overboard though and have an early start tomorrow. Confused
Fingers crossed, flippers and nose clip on..

I'm buying you a wetsuit lost! Mate who I'm going out with is my Mr BI (only in a friend way) this could be interesting!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 11/08/2017 19:08

Arghh not a Mr. BI. Oh Lord. At least your husband's sensible Serial.

I'm squeezing into the wetsuit and drinking a lovely Friday Stella.
Off for a weekend in Eastbourne tomorrow with the kids and their cousins, my sisters and husbands. Hope we don't end up killing each other. Grin

NomDePrune · 11/08/2017 22:46

Is that going to be a dry weekend lost? My family would die of shock if they knew!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 11/08/2017 23:12

There'll be alcohol involved but I won't be getting off my tits on class As, my family would die of shock too! Oh well, it's got to be better than your wet festival Dusty Grin

The thought of feeling awful tomorrow in front of my family is the main thing keeping me on my board tonight. Really craving as well and it's making me grumpy so I've taken myself off to bed. Sigh.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 11/08/2017 23:14
