It's

Tonight I'll 'spend my bread' not 'paint my friend'.

You're right there too -- I just copied one of the lyric sites to get that line:

Monday, I have Friday on my mind.

Which is maybe the only line I remembered.

I always have a smile, perhaps my smile belongs to me only, don't know, perhaps folk don't see it. If folk forget what a smile is when dealing with life's problems then it might be a down hill struggle. BUT, for me, weegee and others here, we can smile, why, cos that's the way we are. smile.png

how true transam....and no one can take that away from us hey?....it's too bloody late!!!!cheesy.gif

Nuff said :)

"I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"

You do realise that not drinking alcohol when on antibiotics is a medical myth.

Only in very rare cases it can be irritable and that is only with certain specialist ABs antifungal, intestinal treatment or malaria treatment.

I have never abstained from drinking while on a course, and also the ones you get for tooth infection are safe to drink with. I was on them last month while on holiday.

Relax and go and have a few bevvies down the pub.

The way your smile just beams ... No no they can't take that away from me

Maybe corny but one of George Gershwin's last songs sung by Fred Astaire 1937

Antibiotics and booze are not a problem, trust me .

Well I'm thinking of --

Another Saturday Night -- Sam Cooke

Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting -- Elton John

One More Saturday Night -- Grateful Dead

-- but I'm stumped for Friday night

Friday on my mind...Easybeats.

Most of those not from Australia have probably never seen this:

Stevie Wright (the singer) was actually considered by the Youngs for the AC/DC job but Bon Scott got it.

GF?

General Forum !!!!

Put that bottle down right now son....

Awww.....to be fair it is a bit depressing at the moment, all these stories of misery and the like.

I got a bit of bad news the other night too, Mercedes Girl announced on Facebook that's she's flying back to CM as she's missing me too much. I thought I was getting three months to myself.

Goddammit. sad.png

Is that why you posted the topic that you wanted to go to a village for a month.

I knew Stevie when we were around in the sixtys....Mate of mine was a very good friend of Bond Scott....but scotty was a bit toooo hot for me. Great artist though.

I wonder what music was being played in Thailand during the Sixtys...

Especially when Washington Square in Bangkok was in full swing. Any ideas "Smokie" ???

Mick Jagger is 70 today. Happy Birthday, Mick

Antibiotics and Booze don't worry me....

It's the antibiotics, booze, and Heart Tablets mixed that does....thumbsup.gif

Guess because for at least 80% of western expats Thailand and it's neverending stream of minor and mayor inconveniences including annoyingly stupid wives who behave more like dominant parasites then loyal loving partners seriously got under the skin due to which they all became more or less depressed, however thinking of going 'home' depresses them even more or is simply unrealistic. Beside this the heat affects the brain makes clear thinking and searching for solutions and improvements very, very hard hence many came to a mental standstill. Therefor posting on TV and drinking beer became their main-activities and only joy and pleasure but inbetween the lines you can see that their life is far perfect.

edit: p.s. and sorry for those who are in those circumstances because many they are, seen a lot of relational mess amongst people I knew often resulting in situations that kept going downward for long time untils some answer came, wishing you all the luck you can get.
