And why wasn't I invited?

I'm not the sort of person who gets invited to dinner parties... don't know why, I give good conversation, I don't drool or fart, and rarely say **** or bugger in polite company.

I'm having Philly lite and crackers.

@smorgs,

Three bottles of wine between five, is that a lot? Only three were drinking, mind.

Quite right too. Were there any pilgrims come to worship?

I've not seen the report but I gather a young lady has given a journalist an account of how traumatised she is by something or other whilst dressed in her underwear which she is shown wearing in the accompanying photograph.

ha ha ha.

I'm making Sunday dinner, nothing smells quite like it, I even like the lingering smell of cabbaaage afterwards.

Cheesecake for afters...

Does anyone else say afters? Or is it just me being very working class?

@smorgs,
It might be smorgsie but "cheesecake for afters" is an ambiguous expression which in some circumstances might reflect a somewhat superior social status.

Objection.

I don't think you can have a lap unless you are sitting.

I'm just sayin'.

@smorgs,
Scots are nitpickers. McTag is worse than most. That's why Walter likes him.

@georgeob1,
To join the USNA (and any other naval airforce elsewhere), you must have taken already some basic courses in nitpicking.
Not to speak about the nitpicking qualifications ranks higher than O-7 have got ...

@Walter Hinteler,
I agree, I have that quality too. However I stand in your shadow and McTags.

@Walter Hinteler,
No one is perfect.... at least that's what the Jesuits taught me. My modesty in this case is real, even though I did use it for advantage.

I hope you are having a pleasant day, old friend.

@smorgs,
I think your shadow is fine, smorgs. You just hang about with some irritable friends. Im a much nicer guy than McTag or Walter. and worlds ahead of spedius.
