"Days of speed & slow time Mondays"

It's Monday morning & I feel a bit fuzzy.
Happily though I had the foresight to book today off work.
The reason for the fog? Beer & spliff.
Shocked?

Last night saw the first visit of a bloggyfriend to Crapsville. Lordy B is, quite literally, in the house! (well, flat). He's actually still asleep as I type this. I'm not gonna wake him because if he's anything like me the opportunity to sleep until naturally waking will be precious.
We went down the pub last night. We took part in a very odd pub quiz. The sort of pub quiz that didn't actually require any great knowledge or intelligence to win.
We didn't win.
Even though we were obviously the most knowledgeable & intelligent people in the whole pub.
It was in a "Family fortunes" stylee & here's one of the questions: Something that's slimmer these days? Uh????
We finished with 31 points out of a possible 60. The victor's only had 35.

Then at kicking out time, we made our way back to my flat via Crapsville kebab & burger house. The undoubted pinnacle of post pub nourishment in my rubbish little town.
We munched our goodies at the flat & washed it down with a little red wine. We shared a spliff & we both posted something over at Cheer Up Alan Shearer - The world's foremost football blog.
(Have you had a look yet?).
I was most impressed by the Bargainmeister's speed typing, especially after several pints, a couple of glasses of wine & a spliff.
Shortly afterwards I started to hear the call of bed. And in true lightweight style succumbed.
Twas a fine night though. We had lots of laughs & spoke of many things.
It's also been really nice to have someone come here.

So big respect to my mate Lordy B (who is still asleep, lazy git!)

    i did sort of wake up at 7.30am, incidentally, but as I hadn't to go to work I sort of dozed for a couple of hours. The mobile ringing eight times by 10am sort of didn't help the sleep, much.

    you should come here to visit, folks, you get a Decent Bacon Sandwich out of it. what more could you ask for?

    I'm so glad the blog is allowing you (and me) to meet new and interesting people.

    It's awesome that you and Lordy B are becoming fast friends.

    Wish I was there!!

    Sounds like a great way to end the weekend (especially when you have Monday free).

    Bargain - what more could you ask for...something veggie...probably just chips, as that's usually all the post-pub fare available in anywhere except California.

    DOJ - it's not all scum content over there you know, and it's up to people like you to make sure that we talk about something else.

    DOJ - it also depends on your definition of "scum" which for me could mean the ex-mighty Leeds....

    At last I get to post a comment on here! (Although solely by using an internet connection in an arty bar rather than the - frankly - absolutely bollocks connection at work.)

    How nice that the interweb can be a way of making new friends, and not just a means for unscrupulous companies to bombard people with emails inviting them to buy generic Viagra. Glad you and Lord B had a good time!

    Lord B - Only one real Scum matey ;)
    Even me mother calls "them" Scum LOL I taught her well!
    There's the other "semi-scum" teams though like Chelscum, Striped Scum (Newcastle) & Galatasascum.

    When I was your age it was savaloy and chips, or going round the chinese for those extra fat chips. The food has changed but not the routine.
