WHAT THE FUCK???!!!!

We went to the 02 in London on Monday night, when we left we came across the M11 road closure, the diversion took us to another junction to join the M11 which was also closed !! Fookin genius 😡 we had to guess our way out of it through a series of intuition and luck. Took an extra 40 minutes to get home on an already 2 hour drive!

My last lot of bloods suggest my liver doesn't like alcohol. In any capacity, at any point.
Not that I'm a big drinker - fizzy beers are out thanks to a gastric bypass. Spirits go straight to my head so I never have more than one or two and even then it's best described as "infrequent".
Looks like I'm joining the ranks of the teetotal, so if anyone knows of an actually decent "flavoured water" ( which is all these booze free spirits are), answers on a postcard.....

Also, more infernal roadworks on the east lancs/a6/a666 (road to hell, how appropriate) this morning....why??!? There was nothing wrong with the junction or the lights...but you had to fiddle with it, didn't you? The biggest joke is that the signs they have (only just) put up say works start from 10th January for 10 weeks......er.....it's now June......🤣🤣🤔🤔

The alcohol free version of the fruity ciders are quite nice, chug them while sitting in road works and you'll get some looks....

When I hit the translate the site button this is what came up.

Knobbe, Knobbe
Plasteradoors and plasterers​

So true they named it twice. 🤣🤣🤣

Take a note of his phone number, and when he has gone, phone him and ask him round for a quote for some none existing work, and waste his time.

Peroni zero is good, but as with all alcohol free beer it has to be cold to taste as good as the real thing. 🍺

I don’t know, kids hay, you can’t live with them —————————————————:innocent:

Erdinger alcohol free I think is the best 0% beer....
Lucky Saint for 0% Lager
 
I don’t drink, haven’t done for 20 years, and only because I don’t enjoy the taste or the feeling.

I really enjoy sparkling water with lemon cordial in it.

You are me, I am you… stopped drinking 20 years ago as well.

I drink Sodawater and Lime if I’m forced to socialise.

I didn’t stop for medical reasons, I stopped because drinking was ruining my life.

My Son was born and I decided to stop, so I did.

Heroin helps though.

Bit of brown really takes the edge off 😂😂😂
 
This evening's WTF ...
Browsing the reduced section at Booths, I caught site on the bottom shelf off an little box..
Lillets Resusable.
🫣😲
"Who in their right mind would want to re-use one of those?!?!!" I found myself asking.
Upon closer inspection (and some typical male discomfort doing so in public) I found it was one of those"cup" affairs.
But it doesn't have give me a shock on first discovery.
Also, I found Booths for l have a better range of 0 alcohol beers - a couple of milk stouts, so I might be ok.
