Re: Ever felt a fool...

Sometimes you have to draw a line under it Art and put it down to experience. You can't go through life getting angry about everything you disagree with.

A 'Wine Bar' Tpin, blimey that's posh!
I never knew you could buy wine in a pub until last year......Not round here anyway.....And that's if you can shuffle through the tattoo and earring wearing locals in the vests blocking your access to the bar.....Best if you don't order a glass of wine....

At least you would have brightened someone's day Barry. The person with the mundane job of ringing people up would have had a good laugh.

I felt one once. It was the 70s so she didn't complain.

Re: Ever felt a fool...

On a sort of similar theme I was saying to Alistair,my gardener, this morning about how `scammers` and `pikeys` give genuine people a bad name.

A couple of days ago this chap came round asking if I wanted to put anything in his skip,he was not local and dare I say had a very thick Irish accent-I`m immediately on the defensive. Turned out there really is a skip-they are building very close nearby. Well that was two wooden pallets dealt with and if somebody makes a shilling from them so be it.

I did it, so others didn't have to.

I'm selfless like that.
