Take a break, Maggi, have a rest and get well soon.

There's a bit of swine flu about, which I believe the normal flu jab does not protect against. Turns out it isn't as nasty as everyone feared, but not pleasant either. Whatever it is, I hope you get better very soon. 

[Maggi Young]

Thank you Maren . I think




First Martin thought I was a bloke, now Maren thinks I'm a porker.... I'm feeling worse by the minute......

[alpines]

Get well soon Maggi.........I'll have a shot of bourbon for you. That should do the trick !!!!

You DO have THAT quote at the bottom of your postings, Maggi .... !   

... And I thought you lived in a dry county, Mr. G.?

Sure do Mr. B..........but where there's a "still" (sic) there's a way

So that's what's keeping you all from visiting us, is it?
Take it from me, when Bud light tastes good.....you KNOW the world is a sad place !!!

[Maren]

Thanks, cliff, for saving my bacon.

Just have a good rest Maggi and forget about all the silliness here. You probably need a bit of sanity around you. I seem to have picked up a sore throat from spending two days with my son, his girlfriend, her neice, my daughter and her son, the cook, his lover and Uncle Tom Cobley as well as 3 dogs. Among other things, they set fire in the paddock to a scarecrow dressed in rugby gear. There was a good reason for this but no-one explained to me what it was. I was glad to get home last night.

I'm beginning to think I live in a dry country as the supermarkets don't sell spirits! I haven't had a drop of malt whisky since leaving Scotland! Mind you, the sign about the express checkout cheered me up: "12 items or fewer".

[Lesley Cox]

You'll have to go to a bottle store or other licenced liquor outlet Anthony, for spirits. Or a pub or bar for drinks thereof. Only beer and wine in the supermarkets, not even fortified wines, the rationale being that spirits would be too accessible to the under age if in supermarkets.

I thought kids these days tended to get smashed on cheap cider or alcopops not spirits?

[Lesley Cox]

But perhaps because spirits are not so easily available. Having said that, a 16 year old about a year ago drank a whole bottle of vodka (obtained by his mates I think) and died that night. My grandson's best friend died exactly the same way, maybe 6 months ago. And a while back another kid, about 15, ploughed a stolen car into a house and killed two sleeping children. The vodka had been bought for him by.....his mother!

OMG Anthony, have you made the right move

I haven't had a drop in 67 years.
