A Question Of Manners.
by Englishman ini'm looking for some feedback here.
hl and i like to socialise sometimes, and this often results in us hosting small parties for a few friends.. often our friends reciprocate, and then we enjoy being guests instead of being hosts.. but we keep encountering a dilemma.
one set of friends like us to visit them for afternoon bbq's or sometimes for evening dinner parties.. now, no problem with dinner parties, but if say we go to a bbq at around 4.30, they expect us to remain with them for the entire evening right through until around 11 pm or midnight, the same time as we'd stay to if we went to a late dinner party.. personally, i've had enough at about 9 pm, that's 5 hours, so we like to leave and have a pint or two in the pub on the way home.. now this makes them quite angry and they say that we're being anti-social because we are off to the pub instead of spending the whole evening with them.. i maintain that if you go to tea or a bbq in the late afternoon, then it's quite acceptable to depart earlier than if you went to a late dinner party.. what do you think?.

do your kids ever feel morally superior to you...?......lol...
by reboot in.
i'm never going to live this down......i gave my daughter a talking to about drinking last week, mentioning health issues and the dangers of binge drinking as she'd been to a party and had had a few too many....we talked and she agreed to be more sensible...... fast forward to last night...i went to a friend's son's bbq for his 21st birthday..it was really hot and the wine was flowing..i started at 2pm through to around 1030..i cant actually remember .... .when it was time to leave.i tried to walk home and just.... could'nt--i seemed to walk forwards one and back three and was laughing so hard my stomach hurt and i could'nt stand up........ my friend's son offered to carry me home...wrapped up in a blanket....bless him....when he got to my door he propped me against the front of the car and i kind of folded in the middle, face down and hit my forehead on the bonnet........... ......theyve all been round to laugh at my hangover from hell.
too....

Stopping smoking and EnglishMan
by Celtic inbloomin hec, i go on like this and i'll be so cleaner living person that day in witlesses will pale in comparison.. as some of you know, i gave up smoking cannabis several weeks ago, and to be honest, don't really find i'm missing it, was sending me cuckoo la la too much.
cut my drinking way back, this past winter, i was concerned that the amount i was intaking was getting a bit out of hand, plus not all the time, did i like what it was doing to me, and i'm sure others thought i was quite loopy on the stuff too, so, down to just a tinny a night now, 'cept for last night when i had 5 or 6, the post shows the effect, though of course, i did write that just for a laugh.. i got up this morning, smoked my usual hand rolled tobacco, and thought why the hell am i doing this, smoking me little cancer stick, even the taste of it is foul, disgusting.
so, just now i thought right thats it, so i slapped a 10mg patch on my arm and have decided to give it a ruddy good crack at giving it up all together as of now.
