Bits

1; A guy in the pub tonight (he don't know me from the proverbial Adam) just 'couldn't get' why I have tattoos! Amazingly, I COULD get why he is such a 'prick'!

2; My girls really enjoyed the athmosphere in the pub (not a regular experience for them) this evening, for the world cup final. They were amazed by how many people knew their Da! (I like to think these people know me for my fame as a musical star, and not for my infamy as a bar-fly!)

3; Those accounts ain't gonna tally themselves! (I've been putting this off for too long now!, I just hate Mondays!)

4; I don't care HOW cheap they sell the stuff, Fosters Lager tastes like shit!

5; You are all invited to my 50th Birthday celebrations on 11th June 2011 (the day after my actual birthday) in a venue to be decided, cash gifts only please.

6; I miss my Pal.

  3. So you have... and yes, I miss him too. *sigh* Hoping he's okay...

  4. Pon; Perform? that'll be my job! You just enjoy yourself with my mad family! It would be great to have 'yer man' here too. Who knows? :¬)

  5. Wait a minute... did you not have a birthday a wee while back, and did we not agree that I was younger than you??
    Yep. Just checking! Happy B'day!

    PS Maybe the guys down the pub know you from your blog?? Watch it or they'll all want to be immortalised in print.

  6. You have ink because you can---he is an arsehole cos he can be---wanker.
    Who cares how they knew you--they greeted you so the like you---and what is not to like.
    Don't blame us Aussies for Fosters--it is only the State of Victoria---and I don't think they drink a lot of it---a mate of mine says it's like sex on the banks of the Yarra--fucken near water.
    Well now there's a date---I'll have to start working on it
    It's OK Macy, I'm older than all of you
    We can hope young Jimmy will see the date

  7. I'll be with you in spirit.
    I'm so glad you keep Jimmy's presence alive. I hope he knows how much he's missed and thought about. In this neck of the woods anyway.

  8. Ah the secret is out...Fosters IS crap, we send it overseas so we dont have to drink it. It's not a popular beer here in OZ, and has always been considered a womans beer. (I know thats sexist, and I know women have more taste than to drink it.)
    Coopers is Australias best beer but good luck getting any, we keep that here at home.

  9. I have tatts too. No explanation needed. None of his bloody business anyway.

    I drink coopers here in South Australia, a decent lager. In Scotland I drank Millers occasionally, and Stella Artois. Nice.

    I like that you are getting your birthday organised now. Clever guy!

    I might follow suit.

  10. I have one tiny tattoo. I almost passed out when I got it. Sorry to say.

    I hate balancing the books. It's so boring and all it does is remind me that we're just keeping our heads out of the water.

    Have you ever actually met someone from the blog world? I haven't. I wonder how it would go?

    I've always wondered what happened to Your Pal. I've not taken him out of my Google Reader in the hope that he returns one day.

  11. I was too frightened to ask about what happened to Mr Jimmy. But I miss him too.
    Good luck with the books!
    Sx

    Tempo; Coopers eh? Your round pal. :¬)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Star Child; Coopers, Miller and Stella. I like the sound of that, your round after Tempo! :¬)

    UB; Yes I have met other bloggers, two at the same time in fact! Hangar Queen (Dev) was in my part of the world last summer and both of us went on a pub-crawl with Bock The Robber! (Both of them are in the side-bar, I too tired to do links!) I'm told we had a grand ol' time!

    (The other fella will be back one day, we just have to be patient, the Phoenix shall rise at it's leisure!) :¬)

  16. Scarlet; Still haven't made a start on the books!
    Jimmy is resting, he will be back. :¬)

  17. Remind me again a couple of months before your birthday - I've never been to Ireland and am looking for an excuse to re-prioritise the pennies :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. If Clyde is sitting on one side of Jimmy, I get dibs on the other side!!!! ;-)

    Will have to start planning this holiday NOW so I can save my pennies... no, make that loonies... Can't wait! xoxoxo

  20. Why do you have tattoo's? my response would have been, Why are you talking to me shitbag? but then again you did have the kids there so you are a better man than me Map... i miss your buddy too, tell him Kono sends his regards if you see him.

  21. kono; He was a friend of a friend of a friend, if you know what I mean? After years of being on stage, playing to a sometimes fickle public, a lad learns to smile and think of little lambs prancing about a meadow when confronted by stupidity.

    And I know the other fella knows how much he is missed by all of us in bloggerland! :¬)

  22. As an Australian I have to agree about Fosters. Once I was on a plane from Sydney to L.A, sitting next to a guy who ordered a Fosters and the Air Steward asked him, quite bemused "Are you Aussie?"
    What they never tell you on the Fosters add:
    A) No Australians drink the stuff
    and
    B) Foster is NOT Australian for Beer. We speak English here. Beer is, in fact, the term we use for beer.
