i encourage you all to join me for some casual drinking, social lubrication and light laughter right here in the beer garden.
Oh and before anyone gets up in arms about alcohol and its dangers the main beer on tap is VB or virtual beer
beer is the third most commonly consumed drink in the world behind water and tea
why not share the worlds joy with friends

@utopia My eventful Saturday afternoon and evening is on @Former-Member 's "sleeping too much" thread, if you feel like reading it. Too lengthy to type again, sorry.
It's a day/evening I'd like to forget. Lots of triggers, have had an emotional day. Crying and all the rest...............
Good on you for cleaning your house outside, big job for you.
