Boxing Day. The aftermath!

[TubularBells]

Took the dogs to the park this morning. They missed out yesterday due to 'er indoors over indulging on Xmas Eve. Very windy! Didn't help with the hangover mind, hair of the dog (pardon the pun) needed.
Dogs were running sideways in the wind.

Anyone else suffering this morning?!

Not here mate. Went over the road around 12.30 yesterday to see friends & had half a bottle of wine but that was it for the day.....rarely have a drink on Christmas day.....I'll be fine and dandy for this afternoon....

You'll be happy.....football's back for you.

I'll reserve judgement on happiness 'til I see our result at about 4.50 pm

Me neither really. I think it's largely down to me only drinking at the weekends these days. Haven't over indulged but drank maybe a bit more than usual. Body can't hack it like it could twenty years ago.

I'm hoping Watford win too. Keep as many below us as possible.

I'm still drunk from Christmas Eve I think.

I had smoked salmon on toast and put a dollop of seafood sauce over the salmon tasty as fuck. Bottle of red for me later this afternoon.

Sounds good mate enjoy Got some Wilkins farmhouse cider left so will finish that off with some cider brandy while watching films tonight.

That's the plan for next weekend. Salmon and a drop of Vino. May postpone celebrations 'til New Years Day evening though as last New Years Eve we got an uninvited guest.....

we don't do hogmanay....doors are locked & outside lights put off. Normally giving it big Zzzzz's long before the bells. Too old now for drinking into the wee small hours. (I'm an unsociable c*nt....).... I'll be fresh for New Years day though....

 

[TubularBells]

(I'm an unsociable c*nt....

Me too, hence switching to New Years Day so anyone expecting us to be partying on New Years Eve will find we are not.

And me, i'm usually in bed NYE by 11-00 as im pissed by then. I prefer to wish our friends happy new year down the pub at lunchtime as it's not crowded or has drunk idiots who feel the urge to have a fight because they can't handle their drink.

 

[johnnytodd]

Not rough at all, but struggling to control the tv so bit pissed off, not had a drop all day.....new man for next year I think.

you ditching the missus mate ?

Is your TV staging a revolt Johnny?...

 

[Indian Dan]

NYE is the biggest waste of time ever. Pubs are full, mainly with fuckwits, can't get a taxi home and fucking Jools Holland grips my shit.

Got my grandson to look forward to in April - everything else is just fluff at the moment.

*Going out on New Year's Eve.

I'll be relaxing at home with some beers and I consider that time well spent!

Sounds good mate. Me and the missus will be staying in drinking while watching some films and eating pitza and chips. Thankfully she's learned her lesson and will share my cider and cider brandy rather than get shitfaced on wine

Much better than fighting your way through crowds in the freezing cold!

Yeah fuck that mate we're too old for that crap. At our age we'll have the heating on while wearing our dressing gowns and slippers

 

[SALTIRE]

I will be drowning my sorrows on Hogmanay as its my birthday the previous day and I officially become old that day!

Oh piss off Salty....you're a fucking spring chicken man......

What age do you think you become old? I'm 56 and still don't class myself old yet,my body might say i am but my brain thinks otherwise.

 

[claret50]

I'm 75 and can confirm that there isn't an age when 'old' becomes old, it's all in the mind and general attitude towards life, I know some people (not many thank fuck as they're depressing bastards to be around) in their early 50's who act like and consider they're old and already can't wait to book into a retirement home, well fuck that, it's not for me and never will be.

 

[Indian Dan]

I'm 62 in April but feel no different - attitude wise - than when I was 30. Went decades without going to the quacks, now I've had a knee replacement, got high BP and cholsterol, and me back's gone haywire.

Apart from that things are hunky dory! Still got lead in me pencil, too!

 

[SALTIRE]

I guess I'm just sore since its the big four o, the traditional life-changing day. Got a bottle of Ardbeg awaiting it though, so at least I have that to look forward to on the day!
