Now I've tried the Hopping Hare and been disappointed, I'm unlikely to try the others in the range.

Not cheap that either.

It is when you're only buying one.

Enjoyed a nice bottle of Georgian red with dinner, then dark and stormies, cos it was dark and stormy. A bit fuzzy headed, but I walk in the mountains should solve that isuue

...the name of a local tribal chieftain, I assume...

I took the dog food to our elderly neighbour tonight and she came out with a bottle of Leo. I know enough about Thai culture not to refuse.

This has been happening a lot lately - usually it's a couple of glasses of Ya Dong, but a Leo was a welcome change.

We sit for ten minutes while she rattles on in some dialect while I nod and look thoughtful. Tonight she brought out a photo of when she was a young woman. I became strangely .... well, if she was 50 years younger....

You could make her day!

Bit close to home though

It could make my day as well mate, but such is life!

I've just suddenly remembered it's the wife's birthday tomorrow... again!!!

Not sure whether to go with the old favourite of "I completely forgot", or try and find something in the garden to wrap up for a surprise in the morning. To be honest my options are limited at this time of day...

Tell her it's being delivered this will buy you a couple of days

Good idea, it may well come to that. Kerry are useless anyway, It'd buy me a week...

Just take her shopping tomorrow and let her choose her own birthday present.

It's only a birthday... must admit I hadn't really envisaged a shopping trip.

It's a chilly 4 degrees here this morning, so a couple of hot coffees. Kinda in the mood for hot wine tonight- high season is almost over, so time to celebrate the hoards of tourists going home. Okay, so I am overreacting massively about that.

btw, how many calories are in 12 x 330ml of San Mig Lite?

I'll google it meself then ya lazy pillocks.


Sad to see 100 kcal per 330ml.

Though better than Leo at 150 and Singha at 135.


Better start peddling now.

Picked this up in Korea on my last day. I had some Hibiki 17 year in Tokyo a month or so back and forgot to buy a bottle then came across this while walking around in Dongtan.

Will crack it open later

Its second breakfast but feels like lunchtime given the ungodly hour i rose. 1st brekkie was Massam Gai to go with me first G&T. I predict a restful flight.

I'm not in stralia, can't sort these phone photies

that's better that handstand was giving me neck compression and fizzy drink out me sinuses.

That reminds me, there was a whitey in the immi queue who clearly had been on the Whey, all gay beareded, no socks, fooking tight grey troos and a whittle top to shop his Abs - looked like one you log your your work out wankers - wasm't Cuj tho coz he didn't look like a key for a wind up toy.

On special @ the local.

I not a big fan of apple cider, but don't mind the pear style.

7.4 % hic

For me the same as most days a few cups of Tata's Tetley tea

^^I've heard in the UK now, the Berry cider on draught is the nuts°

Be a great drink in Oz I'd imagine.

I walked to the first bar today à total of 2kms and had a diet coke, the second place had none so had a San Mig lite instead of regular coke, now I've had about 8 and am at an all you can eat curry house
