Any guesses as to 'H' is? My money is on 'Gill Biggeloe'.

Yes I think so to. Thought ep5 was really good, & Steven Graham, as always, fantastic...well, except he was killed in ep4 but never mind.

Just can't see Ted as being 'a bent copper'.

Last ep next week....????

A couple of months back I had a massage in Siam Reap, and 3 massage girls piled into the room with me.

That was memorable.

I had no respect for my father at all, he tried to lay down the law, must not go in to cafes, must not play football on Sundays, must not go to the cinema, this was when I was about twelve years old, (he thought he was a christian) I disobeyed all these rules all the time, and was never found out, when I was in my mid teens and out grew him, I let him know that I never respected his laws, because I knew he would not dare put a finger on me as he knew he would never win. lets be honest here, would anyone respect a father like that?

He thought he was doing the best for you, according to his Christian values.

Yea, I remember Sunday's, no shops open, bugger all to do, & the threat of 6pm Mass.

My father is OK.

My mother is a piece of shit!

Why is she a  p.o.s - in general, not detailed, unless you want?

A long time ago I worked for ParcelForce UK and we had scores of those 3.2L Transits at the depot, plus a few other brands.  Most were unmarked, proper white van man.

The transport manager at the time used to let you choose which vehicle.

I always took the Mercedes Sprinter lol.

Ahhh...so you're the b@stard that would 'card' me without ringing the bell first!

Not difficult to find on here. Most have Special Forces experience/ ex CEO's of multinational corporations/can talk bs for hours.

Or something to do with a Roman legion...

Thanks alot.

 

The poem is correct, What dies it mean "get out while you can"?

In this sense i.e. the poem, it means leave home as soon as possible.

Rather than posting this directly, I have only put up a link, as it's a bit sweary.

The second stanza describes the "Chain of Torture"

Also, try googling 'Sins of the father' - it might help you.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Take care of yourself, make sure you eat properly, & don't drink too much.

Wow!

I think family are a huge trigger to alcoholics relapsing.

 

Family is the worst.

However, it is the alcoholic who picks up the drink.

Not their family.

Or, blame everyone else, attribute your problems to them & never get clean/sober

Up to you.

Once you recognise that your father is also a person, then perhaps you might grow more.

None of us are perfect, we have to do the best we can, or else we become lost in the 'blame culture'.

"There is one lovely & grumpy person on here, who I admire. He has been through perhaps the most trying times in his life. He still manages to keep going & make (most of us) laugh.

The OP is describing an event of overwhelming lust caused by natural male horniness due to the testosterone hormone. (This type of event is today described as "toxic masculinity by some).

In extreme instances, it gives a huge jolt of adrenaline.

I think it happens to most of us except those of us who consume a lot of soy.

And some Oxytocin also.

-0.7%, definitely doom and gloom for Thailand, 555555, it's a blib on the screen. You should know by now teflon Thailand can do no wrong, it doesn't matter what happens they keep flooding back.

Gosh, you're sooo clever.

Btw, the word is 'blip'.

Chok dee na?

Yup, thumbs up for Roojai - got a 1000 baht credit at Tesco's & other places.

Insurance was inexpensive too.

This thread has paid off handsomely.  The overwhelming majority of people reading it have rushed out like myself and bought a bottle of Aussie red available in Thailand. 

 

I bought the one for 300 baht with the kangaroo on the label.  Not bad.  Dined on ham steak, hash browns, and mulberry red eye gravy while listening to Sofi Tukker sing Drinkee.  The wine was great.  I also used my new wine pump/stopper to keep it fresh till the morrow. 

Do you have picture of the label please?

I agree that smoking cannabis can deliver good therapeutically beneficial medicine in an ongoing format

 

Sounds like load of bunkum to me, blud.
