Youcannow: I remember my ex wife telling me she drank alcohol on our first date .
After a bottle & a half of wine she disappeared & after half hour , I thought she done a runner( if only ) only for her to appear unbalanced & in a state of self righteousness.
The rest is history
If she had to tell you she drank alcohol on your first date, were you texting on social media at the time?

Youcannow: If that scenario did occur & you paid for an on flight meal & the plane came down before the meal , would they refund the balance ?
I've never travelled by air, but I've heard getting the urge to set fire to both engines to avoid the in flight meal is a normal response.

Jac , we’re talking 30 odd years ago, before mobile phones were even a thing .
I met her the conventional way , through family friends .
I took her home to her parents in a drunken state & quickly made my escape , thinking the old man would get his hunting gear out .
Fortunately, she was already besotted with me & was surprised I got a second date .
Things were more romantic in those days , unlike now .

Everything is palatable on a flight if you have enough alcohol beforehand.

Yeah, I'd have to be pissed to get into one of those ridiculous metal bird things, too.

I really don't like staying indoors. I try to get out most days cycling. Was out yesterday off road in fresh snow. That was quite challenging, but fun.

Youcannow: Does anyone have anything else to talk about other that what they read on the internet.
All I see is quotes from reliable sources & some not so reliable.
Does your wold revolve around the news & the internet ?
Does anyone have any real life experiences they’d like to share?
sure, why not
yesterday i bought one kilo of coffee ,grinded it ,came home and took it to the storage room
some people stock up on toilet paper ,some on coffee

fantaziya: Sometimes I go through archived threads (2006-2008) And it makes me feel that I am not lonely.

I hope one day it will become normal here
idea Sometimes I visit friends a few miles from here. When I get back to my place, I don’t feel like it’s too much of a mess—(they are one pop can pull tab away from being mega-hoarders.). rolling on the floor laughing

I hate when the clock changes.

Spend all summer outside working in the garden. Now it's dark (plus cold and wet), so that doesn't work anymore.

Lots to do inside, but will need to motivate myself to get all of this started. Spending more time on the laptop than usual, but have plenty of other entertainment. Just not into TV etc. Have to get a heap of books next time I'm making it to town.

Back in the day , people said what they wanted & nobody would take offence .
Now , if you step out of line , people are took quick to pounce on you & you’ll probably get a ban ya boot .
