Hmm, I had to drive so it wasn't me t drink to excess. Maybe better because my grandpa sat besides me. Last time he was pouring wine to my glass faster than I could drink it so I stood up from the table a it dizzy. So, this time I had to satisfy myself just with food. And I think I won't be able to eat anything till the end of the year. Gosh, I'm dying here

Ah Mike our Polish lass is eagle eyed ... me thinks thou hast indulged overmuch in excess of Bulmers and thou art hallucinating. The South East beauties must be fairly blue with the cold by now - but that would make them perfect for Avatar (must text James Cameron)StephenKingman wrote:Ah very true about the current freezing conditions but Waterford is usually known as the Sunny (and indeed sexy) South East, we have some beauties here just check out my avatarGotThatSwing wrote:Sexy and sunny South East, Mike? Didn't you just complain about the freezing temperatures damaging pipes and nothing working well due to the snow?
Okay, I've had too much food on Christmas Eve dinner. It's just impossible to refuse because aunt made all the meals by herself, she even baked bread by her own. And we traditionally have 12 meals. I think I'm gonna burst.![]()
Its a time to eat and drink to excess, so just go for it, i ate more chocolate and drank more cider today than is legal and i still have a can with me now. And tomorrow will be the same.
I've eaten way too many mince pies & am feeling stodgy!

Do they show Eastenders on RTE Player then Fran? I caught some of Fair City earlier as nothing else was on, a great laugh. The acting on that show would cheer anyone up, mistakes everywhereFran wrote:Fell asleep in the middle of Eastenders ... now I'm going to have to watch it all again on web.
Have a DVD Nowhere Boy about John Lennon think I might watch it now

I got Inception on Blu Ray today as pressie, will watch that next week, but a quick flick through the channels today only confirmed Some Like It Hot and Come Dine With Me as a choice. Great thing i have a PS3.
