  1. True. Hungover this morning and couldn't be arsed putting the skirt on.
  2. No, I'm with you on minimalism. We're just waiting on planning permission to flatten a fifty year old hoose on a magic plot with North Sea views and building from scratch. The rug will survive the transition as will the acacia piece. At least one of our new rooms will be dedicated to old wood. Collecting sleepers and all sorts of deadwood for the change. It's like we are collecting ingredients before designing the whole but lots of ideas taking shape.
  3. Hrmf.
  4. For sure I would fuck it. But I can't stand her.
  5. Awww. We love it. The wife can't stop stroking it.
  6. I DESPISE that single mother. No secret why she can't keep a man. Bitch. Establishment supporting bitch.
  7. The wife spotted this in a window today so we bought it: - Problem is, it doesn't fit with any of our rosewood and beech-stained pear wood stuff. Sod it, it's too good not to make room for. Acacia wood from India. And best of all, less than a hunner quid.
  8. Vacqueyras 2014. Cru des Cotes du Rhone. Very nice. Bought a bottle for a mate last weekend. Thought I should try it masel. Arse about face but luckily got it right.
  9. You could be right but it's a tough call for him, an admission of failure. I can't see how he can't resign. He's been a fucking disaster. I wasn't sober enough to watch his interviews last night. Those would have been the best indicators of what he'll do.
  10. I would walk a lot further than most of you would think to enjoy sex with her. Am a sucker for an intelligent girl.
  11. Shit in a box. Fabulous suggestion. I recommend replacing the top of the box with clear plastic so that they can see it on receipt. We may even want all postal workers to see it too although perhaps it should be wrapped? That's the real choice to be made. Got to contain a note within to tempt them to open it and inhale the smell. "You're shit" is too obvious a note. I suggest something random and thought-scrambling. Perhaps like: - "There is always waste. There will always be flowers". Or maybe: - "Spare parts don't have a home until there is a vacancy".
  12. Correct. Correct. A third variable to depress us all is this. There is no stand out candidate to follow the cretinous ginger midget. We're fucked. Until such time the quango cunts in charge are replaced by good cunts.
  13. Thanks for the bright vision, and the nothingness of your contribution. Do you have anything positive to say? On anything?
  14. All over pink rover. Fuck off Strachan and Macgoo.
  15. 7-0 my prediction. Edit: isn't that typically Scottish? wos and Fife in particular. Anyfuckingthingcanhappen. England are shit. Mon the pink panthers.
  16. I did two weird things just now, spontaneously. Having decided not to watch the match in public, I got a lift home for tea an hour ago. Just now, I offered to refill the wife's wine glass. That's rare. Not cos I'm a selfish cunt. I just don't often offer to do shit that we can all do ourselves. Whilst topping up her glass, Strachan was getting interviewed on the telly. I fucked and cunted him violently whilst pouring her Pinot Grigio. That's not unusual either - me expressing my distaste for the chesney cunt - but what's really unusual is me going into the auld enemy fixture with such negativity. Best case scenario is we win 2-1 and Strachan has a heart attack at 9.40 pm.
  17. Write again. Be a pain in the arse to them. Say this: - I wrote to you on xxx You ignored me. I telephoned you on xxx. You said you would look into it. You ignored me. I cancelled the direct debit on xxx * just basically lay out the facts. You don't need to repeat your key point. You already made it in the original e-mail. I have no desire to stop paying you and have never failed to meet my obligations. I simply asked you a civil question, one that you ignored. Twice. This is not the response of a professional organisation. If you want my money, please answer my question. My admin fee is much higher than £xx so I'm not paying yours. Yours etc.
  18. These are the best Mods in town... You think your thread got derailed? You should seen the shit getting posted on the Getting Older thread.
  19. I put money in his pocket. Never saw him live but bought one of his albums 25 or 30 years ago. Couldn't listen to him now. His music got tired after a while but I recognise his genius.
  20. dot r u = russian. Never done a ruskie but they are bonny produce so aye fae me.
  21. Agree, agree, agree. Uninspiring stupid man.
  22. When our youngest finishes school and moves on, we are thinking what we might do. Being an internet business, I could live anywhere and the wife isn't going to serve the NHS for ever. With the continuing insane management by Aberdeen City Council and the collapsing local economy, it had crossed our minds to emigrate. Our favourite countries in the world are France and Italy. We spent 3 years in Melbourne in the early 90's. Two of our daughters were born there so they are eligible for dual citizenship but when we were offered it, we fled back home. It wasn't the money - $25 each to become an Aussie - it just forced us to confront the future and it wasn't a place we wanted to be long term. I don't think I would ever emigrate again because there's only one home but it's a pretty sick country, this home. But within it, there are good people, uniquely and peculiarly Scottish people and I understand these people. Even when I don't like many of them, I know how they operate and I can see charlatans and wide-o's coming and can stay out of trouble. We are not Italian nor French so don't think we could ever feel at home there. I've lived in Hong Kong and Germany for 12 years and whilst I don't think I could live abroad again, we love visiting Europe and do so often. Not motivated to go beyond Europe these days, which is surprising. If Aberdeen gets really bad with the oil collapse etc. and we decide it's time to leave, it may be to England, a country I've never lived in and one I never thought I would. I'll probably stay and do my best to contribute in any small way that we can to local affairs though.
  23. Had Tofu Massaman tonight at Thai Khun, first time ever tried Tofu. We were sharing a couple of amazing starters (that we've had before) so I thought it was a good time to try a non-meat or fish main dish. It didn't really taste of anything. It was perfectly infused with the sauce, like a sponge might be but I'm not sure it's anything more than a tasteless protein substitute? Felt great afterwards and as it's healthy, I would eat it again. But I don't think I eat too much meat. A balance and being moderate and avoiding excess in everything is wise. The only things that are really bad for us is too many carbs and almost any sugar. High fat low carb diets the future.
  24. :laughing:
  25. Never knew Mcleish was hitting the piss but it kinda makes sense. Has been very slurry in his TV appearances. Maybe there is a more tragic reason why he's been out of work so long.
