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

Yeah its good to get moving. @Shaz51 Know that feeling when laying in bed aware of all the aches & pains feels worse than getting up and doing stuff.
@Former-Member I would be proud of her too .. A+ .. doing composing and lyrics is great.
@Former-Member Thanks for realising re my bro. Yes triggers can cascade. They are saying 2 months now, but 5 years ago they said 6 months ... but his quality of life is not good at the moment. I have been talking about palliative care but not to bring him down .. but for him to face facts and get some help ..
Bro was totally paranoid about death and depression .. getting to know us again just after sis died .. and was MR POSITIVE .. He is pretty headstrong and resourceful and staying in a gorgeous ashram with a STEINWAY that he cant play .. but sits at it .. pretending .. the devotees are being nice to him .. he is off mainstream medicine .. and maybe thats the way he wants to do it .. ??? We will see .. he has access to German healthcare work visa .. selling alternative therapy.
My son is out tonight watching release of film he was in a month or so ago .. so for the last 4 nights he has been doing stuff with kidults his own age ... Phew .. thats more of what I want for him ...
I had already done the access thing molto molto. My hope is that with a sense of his own direction he will be less likely to take pot shots at me .. and busy getting on with his own life.
