Can edit the title to whatever.

Or I can just edit the title to something completely different and one of you can start the thread.

Just let me know I guess...

PC components hopefully all arriving tomorrow. Been about five years since I had something I could play decent games on so I'm quite excited.

Going to a friends leaving thing in sunny Dunfermline in the evening, then probably playing video games all day Sunday. What's something good from this decade that I should catch up on?

It's the birthday of my wife's friend's fiancee tonight, who I think is a tool. My wife is already committed to going, so I've decided to do her a favour and go for a couple of drinks. He's a Southampton fan too, which means as usual, he'll get pissed and start ranting about how Southampton are better than United, especially with the game being tomorrow.

Ugh.

On Friday my cross country team won the big all-city meet, and I got 5th overall, which means that I'm the 5th fastest person in the entire city, and also I got a shiny medal. Then me and some friends got figgity-fucked and went to the high school football game, and then to a brilliant party where this Chilean exchange student made us all dance to EDM music. On Saturday morning I recovered in time for my funk band to play at this big street fair, then had a piano lesson and at night went to see Steven Gerrard get embarrassed by the mighty Real Salt Lake. On Sunday I just read and did homework. Pretty great weekend tbh.

Didn't do too much this weekend. Friday I went to my girlfriend's nan's for a 'games night' with her family, it was actually good fun and her nan makes amazing cheesecake, which I smashed. Saturday I went to sort out and hopefully finally cancel this cunting Three Mobile contract. Sunday I was up early for the train to the Tottenham game, picked up my old mobile off Kiko, dodged his salad and got to the point where I was hungover before I even got on the train to go home.

We took the dog to some faggy cafe near here, and he was sitting there like the big man because he's been the best dog in Hedon for six months; but then when some boxer dog bowled in looking similarly confident and smug they both went for each other. People watching probably thought he was a tough bulldog and that he stood a chance, but I just lol at him because I know he's scared of plastic bags and engine noises.

Woke up by my dad telling me that my friend was here to make me play football, which was quite a bizarre way to wake up, but the football was really fun given I haven't played for a while. Now I'm about to go to the Salt Flats for sunset and take some purty pictures.

Fridays without school are so blissful.

Mate booked the saturday off when we were going to Preston away. As that left up we are going on an all day pub crawl, tried to rope a few of the other lads in but most are settling down these days, thus, we are a mighty four, still should be a cracking day out, downside is I've got to be back up at 8am on the sunday...

Lee
26-09-2015, 09:04 AM
She's gone fucking mental because I've invited a couple of mates round to watch the rugby later. She's not even going to be here, for fuck's sake. I'm inconsiderate and she doesn't want our house to become a den for my 'alcoholic friends'. Fuck me.

Giggles

That's going a bit far on her part. Does she think you'll all be swinging from the lights?

Fuck knows. I'm doing it anyway. She doesn't ask me for permission to have her stupid family around here while I'm at work.


Magic it depends if they want to, I only asked them about half an hour ago. If they want to then they're coming.

"I want them gone before I get home."

I want a million quid but such is life.

She's now angrily cleaning the house.

I'm really trying to avoid it getting to that point and I'm still hopeful that it won't.

Things came to a head three weeks ago and we had a properly frank conversation. Both in floods of tears sort of conversation. I wasn't intending to end it then but I was clear that that was what was going to happen unless we both changed things. It fucking destroyed her. She didn't see it coming and it's the worst thing I've ever done to a person.

I've definitely become more selfish recently and she has since acknowledged that we'd allowed ourselves to just become two people who happen to live together. Which is a shame as we love one another very much. Things have been really good since we had that conversation. This outburst is just her being her and it winds me right up.

I've recently changed to a 'normal' Monday to Friday week after doing 3 or 4 twelve hour shifts a week for over ten years. It really isn't agreeing with me. Too many days on, too few days off.

Give it time, new routines always take time to get accustom to.

5 day weeks are better in my opinion. You can plan things better around it. Plus you're not working when it feels like everyone else is off.

It's nice being off the weekends with the Mrs and stuff but we are swamped at the moment so a lot of days are becoming too long and there's still parts of the job I don't like that will take getting used to, but I suppose it is early days.
I'd still rather be working today and finished Tuesday or Wednesday though, as I said to day is lost in the looming depression anyway so I might as well be working. Plus I'm not from around here so there's nobody working/not working that I know anyway.

I agreed, and after work off we went. Went to a super fancy house, played a few games of pool and ended up drinking a few beers with the women I work withs husband. Just got home, cracked another beer and ordered myself an Indian. How good is Just Eat!

The rest of my weekend is going to be very very lazy. Can't wait!

It was brilliant actually, the drive itself is stunning but then there was this big beer hall and a stage where bands performed German folk music and people danced to it at the front. I was surprised by how authentic it seemed. Even the beer wasn't too bad and there was delicious chocolate cake too. Got soaked in the rain on the way back though.

Yesterday - went to Cheltenham for the tattoo, visited the literature festival, lamented that I didn't plan to this year so had no tickets (Ian McEwan was a real highlight two years ago), went to the pub watched Scotland v Samoa first half with a soft drink, felt odd. Got tattooed whilst watching second half on my phone. Then watched Wales v Australia. Came home, went out, turns out wrapping your arm in cling film draws girls in constantly - I really was not in the mood for any kind of female liaison last night so grunted back at them but realise afterward that upwards of ten women initiated conversation with me just on bar visits over two or three hours. Must do this more often.

Got to sleep at 6am. On call from 9am, had to wake to confirm handover, instantly returned to sleep until early afternoon.

Currently still naked in bed. Must get up.

I've been on a couple of walks too, and will go again between Inter-Roma and Match of the Day. I've managed to lose 5lbs this week just by cutting out snacks (eating breakfast has made me much less hungry through the day), walking more and cooking every evening meal from scratch with fresh ingredients.

Tomorrow has less promise. I'm on call and things aren't great but rather than wait to be called in I'll go in durng the morning, clear some admin stuff, and hope to have some influence early on so the place works as well as possible for the day. Hopefully it won't be so bad and I'll get the aftrnoon to relax.

I won, but I woke up in the middle of the night having already pissed about a litre all over his bottom bunkbed. Luckily it was so diluted that it was basically water, so as soon as he woke up I 'accidentally' spilled the rest of my undrunk squash onto the bed so that he'd assume all the wetness was due to that.

I remember after a gig one night we went back to the singers gaff and had an awful go at the Buckfast and dope. After going to sleep on the sofa I woke up on his bedroom floor with my kacks round my ankles and had pulled out a drawer of his t-shirts and pissed in it. I still have no recollection but his Da reminds me of it every time I see him to this day.

Another time me and a mate came home after the pub and the next morning I woke up on the kitchen floor and he was asleep bent over the back of the sofa from a standing position. We were living with his Mrs at the time and one of us had pissed on the TV, which promptly blew up, and her DVD player. We dabbed the ceiling with a wet teabag on a stick, and walked down the town to buy her a new one. Told her the ceiling leaked and we rang the landlord and he replaced it. I still maintain I didn't do it but he says he can't remember doing it either.

It's more the fact that you're seemingly often drinking on your own whilst simultaneously posting about it on Facebook. It looks like a meltdown even if it probably isn't.

Fair enough, though.

I don't drink in the house, so it's not like I'm a proper pisshead. Friday-Sunday I'm normally out. On the apprenticeship wage I could go out probably three weekend a month depending on football. Now I've got every Friday and most Saturday planned out up until Boxing Day and then Edinburgh on the other 30th.

Then it's payday again \0/

I can think of one time I've went out to a pub on my own and got absolutely shafted - the night Mj wanted to pick me up.

I'll go out and have a drink on my own in a pub I'm familiar with before meeting up with folk. That's about it.

That's actually quite admirable I reckon. Most people I know would have been far too neurotic and awkward to do that at your age. Or even now really.

I like going the pub by myself, generally do it on a Saturday when I'm stuck in Cheltenham as all I know down here are work colleagues (which are all females), gym friends (all polish) and the girlfriend's mates. Not one of them have an interest in football, drinking and the like.

Even went on a pub tour by myself one Saturday. Was ace.

Usually football ends up the topic of conversation. Found out that my local is owned by a Wolves fan, quite a few head in there who follow us so I usually end up talking to them and having a beer or two with them before going around a bit to kill time before the girlfriend finishes work.

Pub crawls are great, even in boring places. They massively improved nights in Rugby, as they create a false sense of you doing more than just getting pissed - it becomes an adventure of sorts. Though Rugby is good for pubs considering its size and general shitness.

I was assuming you just meant going to the pub on your own. Even still, I don't think it's that weird. It's just going to a few different pubs.

We can't be having a Tth euros meet.

The herd is too thin to take the risk of being taken out by some bellend in a suicide vest at a fan park. If we're doing that we at least need to apologise to taz to make sure he's not still seething.

Nah if you find the right pub to read a book or watch the footy. A crawl though?

In a town where I barely know anyone? Was either that or sit at home and watch the football. Just switched venue after each half of football and went home when the girlfriend got back in. Rather be social (of sorts) then hide away in my apartment.

When you do these one man pub crawls and have conversations with strangers, do you approach other loners or do you try and geg in on groups?

Waffdon
30-11-2015, 05:58 PM
Sit at the bar or standing watching the football and the conversations flow.

I read something recently that described pubs as 'community living rooms'. Think of it like that and it's not weird at all. What's wrong with sitting in a pub having a drink even if you're not talking to anyone?

Going for a quiet pint or two is one of life's little treasures. The sort of thing that gets better as you get older.

Probably this to be honest.

Plus if Wolves are on TV, I haven't got sky so it's a trip down the pub. It's how I've found out that there are quite a few people from back home living and working down here, so much that there is a group of us that regularly go to the local if we are on TV (and I'm not in London/back home).

Yeah, presumably to meet up with other people. Unless you worked in isolated pubs or something seeing someone on their own sinking pints is a rarity. Unless they're a piss stained alchy.

Aye, in the pubs of Rugby you rarely see people drinking on their own - people are either with a group of mates they've explicitly met up with, or they're regulars hanging out with other regulars. Even the Wetherspoons alcoholics group together, my favourite of which is a really tall Peter Ebdon looking bloke who is always on his laptop. Once got really drunk and asked what he was doing, and he said he was 'designing websites'. He showed me one and it was the most 1995 geocities looking piece of shit I've ever seen, p sure it had a midi track playing.

Not to meet anybody in particular though. Those talking about going to pubs on their own have already made clear they don't just sit in the corner drinking on their own.

I'm starting to worry about this same thing, and use of the same tactic.

Isn't it meant to be when your prostate is going a bit in your 50's that it comes on?

Are you sure you don't just have a cup of tea before bed, which makes you needing the toilet.

Nope. Normally have a pee before bed, and don't have hot drinks in the house. Drink a fair whack of coffee at work all day, mind.
