Just 'cos you're an old codger with a stick - doesn't give you the right to judge, Mr Gussethoffer or whatever your name is...

I've seen your signature - who said that? I'll killem! Dead!

I'm not being judgemental, smorgs. I found your story to be quite entertaining and I only wish I had been there to take advantage of you while you were in such a state.

Sounds like a good time was had by all, Sarah. Hope you're recovering OK.

Thanks, Ellpus...

Nice to know someone cares...

I'm not actually - do you think I'm safe to drive?

No!

I'll just have to come and pick you up, I suppose.

Is that really a no, Ellpus?

Am I not safe yet?

When is it safe?

Seriously? It depends on how much you had to drink.

Without getting too technical, a rule of thumb is at least 18 hours for a man who's had a skin full, and up to 24 hours for a woman.

This varies wildly though, depending on your own metabolism.

Bugger!

D'ya think the cat would go to the chemist for me, if I tuck a fiver and a note in her collar?


All the food and treats I give that cat as well!

Should have got a dog!

Hi smorgs, Mr G won't let me get drunk. He says I have to be a good girl and if I drink to much it makes me a silly girl. So I just have two drinks and then drink soft drinks

But I have a sniff when I go to the ladies.

One thing seemingly lacking in your knowledge smorgsy is that the female liver is appreciably smaller than that of males and thus alcohol has a more deleterious effect on ladies than on gentlemen. And by quite a margin.

I would concern yourself more with that than with whether you are fit to drive which is a trivial matter.


Dearie dearie me Lyn- that was a cheap way of getting a stripe.

It is a manifestation of being approved of in the context I used it.

It does have other meanings but I will refrain from mentioning them in order to avoid exciting you, and possibly others.

Do ghosts come. I never knew that. Not ordinary ghosts at least.

Stripes are those chevrons which are sewn onto the uniform of military personnel usually on the upper sleeve but not always. A lance-corporal has one, a corporal two and a sergeant three. These can be elaborated of course with other insignia.

Do you not have a dictionary Lyn?
