    Got my bottle of something fizzy ready - bargain, just need to scrape that emulsion paint off, shame they didn't have 6 bottles like that as I would've got a case discount.

      I may pop in. Depends on whether any local charity needs emergency help. :blue thumb:

        Hi I am hoping to bring my stuff along again
        Problem Pompey Lil is insisting on coming along again,
        The last time she caused trouble trying to get off with my friends, their wives and partners did not like it

        I am trying to put her off but she knows where the party is, so may gate crash it
        I do not know how this girl came about
        I had just come off a three month submarine trip, along with three months pay, and she flung her arms around me as I came out of the Dockyard gate, saying how attractive I was
        It must have been all the BRUT Aftershave I put on to hide the Diesel smell

        Pompey Lil was great, we went everywhere and had amazing fun, but as my wages were spent, her Mum took ill and she had to go visit her, and never made it back before we sailed again
        But hey she was there at the dockyard gate when we got back from the three month trip
        I think that was fabulous

        She is dying to meet Loli and Lost in France, along with all the girls, but I think she really wants to meet Zigs and Woo

        Love is strange

          I love a nice Cava , far better than the trendy too smooth Prosecco , and £15 a bottle Champers . Where did you get it at £1.25 @Scrungee ?

            Going to a small family party at my step sons. Taking my stash of big fireworks ( only two actually ) I bought these for my 65th early December - Lashing rain howling gales . Tried Christmas day - Lashing rain howling gales. Weather looks passable for NYE :blue thumb:

                  Reduction shelves at Tesco, we've got to know when they put it out each week and get a small trolley load of stuff at up to 80% off.

                        Moet for us, though my favourite of the moment is Heidseik Metropole. Got a stinker of a cold but hope to pop in if i'm half-human later on.

                        This place really lives up to its name as the friendliest forum on the internet, another enjoyable year here almost done. Have fun everyone!

                          We're out at my sister-in-law's tonight for an evening of eating, drinking and playing silly board games. It's only about 15 minutes' walk home afterwards though, so I'll try and pop in here some time after midnight to see what you're all up to.

                          Have a good one folks and remember, you'll have to wait a day longer for next year's party. :old:
