The Smiling Hour


Love needs a transfusion, let's shoot it full of wine
Fishing for a good time starts with throwing in your line

That's poetry that is, Glo.

  5. It was fucking awful, there was more snow and it was colder than up in the frozen north.

    I was chastised for clicking my pen all the way through a presentation.

    Tell me Mr H, do we believe in coincidences such as Russian meteors on the same day as olympic sized swimming pool asteroids pass close by the earth, hopefully taking down a Murdoch satellite or two?

    Two more please, Glo.

    This gin is going down a treat tonight, goes rather well with Mr Waits' crooning

  10. Alright. I'll have one of them please. What times the asteroid due? Might double up.

  11. Ey up. Quiet 1 for me lads - afore the asteroids play up again. (Been using that Anusol - but they keep coming back).
    Smells a bit 'glossy' in here davy. Could do with repealing the smoking ban to mask the taste of Dulux 'Tobagan Sunrise'.
    Fish finger sandwiches and then rugby league at Headingley for me and top daughter.
    May pop back later for a nightcap and BBC4.

    Love to all

  13. Not BBC 4 Dickie, it's all about that overrated beat combo from Liverpool tonight.

    I might go asteroid spotting.

    Got my new listening chair, it's alright but it's not red

  18. Crikey. I pop out for a bit - and there's nobody here when I get back. Hope an asteroid hasn't taken out the pool table.
    Spicy Rum n coke to warm me cockles please Glo. And some Scampi Fries from that box that says 'Best Before 1987'.

    Put one int barrel for t'others. They're an odd bunch - but you gotta love em.

  19. Didn't checked my bloglist yesterday so I couldn't join a shot of gin. Therefore I will take a drink today in the early afternoon. Cheers

    btw: great words from a great singer
