Good Saturday morning. Waters were very choppy last night so well done all those who stayed on board.
Bit hungover. Got up and dropped a whole mug of coffee so I've been cleaning the kitchen! Not the best start.

Ponz and Dusty hope you frogmarched yourselves to bed last night and avoided temptation.

Hooch It's been a while since you strayed off your board. Hope you're alright. It's horrible when you're so wired you can't sleep. Look after yourself today.

Easily done Hooch. The old vicious circle of the coke bender. I'm not drooling at the thought of it at all
Try and get a normal night's sleep tonight if you can. I think I need to pop round to yours later anyway. Do you have an oven dish I can borrow? Grin

Sorry not helpful if you're trying to surf. Was all set to finish it and go to bed but someone says more and my 'sod it' brain says yes. Welcome round for an oven dish, shoe, anything you like Smile

Oh Hooch It's difficult isn't it? You have been managing to keep of it for long periods of time though so there's some inner strength in you somewhere!

I'll be over to you in 5. You have been warned. I am Mrs Bad Influence Grin Although obviously not trying to hit on you, that would be a bit weird.

I've crashed and burned and am in bed. Hooch be kind to yourself when you finally stop. Sending a hug. Exhausted here. That's what it does to you I have no grip. Feel sad.

Did someone say oven dish?!! Am being very French tonight and not Columbian!!

Get your head down Ponz Some of the sad feeling is just because you've depleted all the feel good chemicals in your brain (these are not scientific terms) but you will feel brighter tomorrow. x

I'm all tucked up in bed myself this abstinence thing is turning me into a right unsociable fucker!

Aha, I hope Hooch realised I was joking. She disappeared sharpish after that comment. Grin

Wave your oven dish in the air like you just don't care - that's lost and hooches first dance. Ponz is in charge of choosing the shoes for the bridal party. As bishop I will do the snorting, I mean marrying!!

serialtester · 01/07/2017 22:32

Is there any impediment or a complicated on tick situation with a coke dealer or shoe to prevent this marriage?!

serialtester · 01/07/2017 22:33

You may now sniff the bride.
I'm quite French - sorry!!

The cake can be in the shape of a giant shoe. Smile

I'm planning my marrying robes.

serialtester · 01/07/2017 22:46

I'll be barefoot (I.e shoeless) as befits a woman of god. Unlike Ponz who will be waving giant shoes from the pew.

I'll write the world's longest rambliest speech which of course I'll think is both witty and amazingly meaningful. Grin

And we'll have a free bar and lots of lovely barmen. Yoga Tim will be performing the task of naked waiter, carrying silver trays of champagne in just a small apron.
