We had to do pe in undies & vest !! My undies always had skids & the other kids all complained who had to climb beneath me up the wooden climbing frame lol
If anyone complained you should've started climbing back down onto them and given them Barry Sheens autograph on their forehead

We used to do that too lol
The other thing we used to do was if you were getting a blowback was go in like you was going to snog them and the person giving you the blowback usually freaked out and burnt their tongue lol

that sucks. not atypical for a parent who is sundered to use the children somewhat for emotional blackmail.

my pops may not be perfect but he's the only parent i have left. it's taken time for me to learn to be friendly with him.
yeah abe it was shit but i was a kid and didnt see it for what it was at the time, when i grew up and opened me eyes it was fucking painful i use to look up to me oldman so much as a kid thought he was the bollax when all he was and is a spiteful nasty oldcunt.

i tried to sort things out with him bout a yr ago didnt end well got pissed he started the usual spiteful shit bout me mum and sisters and i nearly killed the old cunt hayho can but try.....

vividly recall my disillusionment w my first gf's parents. they were irrational as all hell. it was then i realized that age, or the title of parent, really has no bearing on whether someone is mature or not. we all work with where we're at and what were dealt.

rimmer tried to call me a bullshitter, then he realized that my third vehicle has a bonnet. yes, that's a sapphire in the winder. im not about that life, just experienced it. living well imo is having a barefoot walkin yard, perhaps a few acres.

Don't deliberately take my words out of context to try and make me out to be a cunt Abe.

I never called you a bullshitter, what I meant was made perfectly clear in what I said, as you understood and replied perfectly well.



I couldn't give a shit that you have a Cartier watch with a sapphire in the winder, my missus had a Bvlgari with a mother of pearl face and diamonds as numbers and sold it for £500 on ebay cos she didn't like the feel of a solid bracelet.

We were talking about clothes, and showing an appreciation for the quality stuff that looks good while standing the test of time.
Proper stylish stuff.


You made a comment about 'too much disposable income' and 'nowt like barefoot in the soil'.
A comment that seemingly mocks what you seem to think is just pointless 'consumerism'.

Then you drop names like Armarni and Cartier and post pictures of your expensive (but flashy) watch and say you're not about "that life", a life that you've labelled as flashy and showy by your comments and posting a god awful and loud as fuck watch.


Abe it aint about how much an item costs, it's about the quality of said item, what it looks like and what it says about the person wearing it.

And I'll tell you what Armani suits and Cartier watches say, in fact they don't say anything, they scream disposable income with no fucking taste!


Good living is having a barefoot yard and a couple of acres my arse, my Mrs grew up on a farm with 100's of acres in Poland during communism yet she'd be the first person to tell you she's partial to Agent Provocateur lingerie because she likes to look and feel good in high end lace.


If you're happy with the simple life then cool Abe, but it sounds like you're bitter underneath, certainly when it gets to the point you try to imply that I (someone who you've hardly crossed paths with) for some reason tried to call you a bullshitter which is complete bollocks as all here can see.




I'll tell you this once and only once Abe, don't try play fucking games with me.

Hey, I could not be sure exactly what you meant by 'gtfo'. I'm jumpy man and perhaps was too hasty. I should have proceeded w more caution or asked for clarification... you've been very cool to speak with. Apologies for implying you were saying something you were not. I see that crystal now. What I knew for sure was you were pointing out that I was contradicting myself, in that context. Jokes aside, I can be a dead serious person and honest. I wanted to tangibly say where I've been and where I've arrived. My tact isn't always on point but I strive. I'm not bitter as much as defensive, in this thread specifically. Maybe you missed it, you probably did, but I've had false accusations made against me.

but no, you never did that york. i guess i carried that earlier attitude into your comment, which was 100% my error.

you're right about me relating to the simple life somewhat. It has loads of merits, but it can be boring as fk. I'm an outdoor horticulturalist and I can't do all that in town. But town is where the action is. It took me near 9 year to decompress from the stress of hustling before. However now I'm ready to live a little again, before full geezer sets in, and hopefully without giving up rural life completely. I live not far from some of most progressive cities in my state.

who doesn't have mixed-feelings, which is a rather normal occurance for the human condition.

Abe it aint about how much an item costs, it's about the quality of said item, what it looks like and what it says about the person wearing it.

im aware of the dichotomy. i agree completely, that was part of my point.

I haven't worn a watch in near 3 decades. Now I wear a plastic fit-bit and tshirts. Appearances can say a lot, or mean nothing. It's just "A Look". Who the person is, underneath, is what I listen and look for mainly. Style is important though, for several reasons - I wouldn't mind classin my understated 'look' up a bit, as I'm trying to get on again, with re-inventing and new chapters. We all deserve a new lease, hopefully several as needed throughout.

I've got an original Valentino Harrington jacket from back in the late 80's early 90's that you'll dig @DST.

A chef I used to work with gifted it to me when he got too fat to rock it with his middle aged spread.

He was on the terrace's of West Ham back in the day, it's got a nice scene look to it, and it's bright red to set the Kickers off.
Man. I was all up for buying a Cerrutti bright red Parker jacket in 89 when I was in Singapore.....was my old man who talked me out of it the prat....still regret not getting that. Can't beat quality hand made stuff. Love the clothes of that era.

When I was a kid I was healthy, still am. However this is one thing we all took for granted probably, our health.

I need to make an update for anyone who's aware of my friend taking RSO for her cancer. Not good news..

As you may already know, it does work and she evaded chemo from diagnosis date 10 April to end of June. She's on chemo now, hair falling out! Why? Coz she came off the oil. ITS A CONTROL AND NOT A CURE.

Beginning of June her sister made a big batch and had an accident with it and it went up in flames on their terrace. She'd ruined the properties ( and not finished it off properly) but fed it to her sister anyway. I insisted that they needed to buy more but they said they didn't have money and spent a few hundred € on a failing shop's rent. I went ballistic at the sister, and then we didn't speak for a few weeks, by which time the cancer took hold again.

Rick Simspon even says it's a 90 day programme and you need a maintenance level of a pea sized amount daily after that.

Must have been gutting for my friend to be told she just needed a biopsy and now this. They got complacent after that last Drs appointment. I even said at that precise moment that it wasn't over yet.

I'm writing this because I don't want to mislead anyone about our findings from the oil. Yes it does work but you need a solid commitment to taking it.

I'm taking oil more or less daily, in capsules coz it's bad on my teeth. It's easy to make off trim if you want to try it out.

My bosses wife had a double mastectomy 7 years ago and it seems they didn't get all the lymph nodes and now she's lost 1 kidney function completely. palliative care only.

Point is, she's now going back on for chemo, after the first lot left her practically unable to open a jam jar. I'd rather have said my good bye's and fucked the chemo/hairloss off. it's a shit thing to happen to anyone but once the big C has it's hooks in you it will get you eventually.

just my point of view but I'd rather go out looking how peeps remembered me. not the poor bald fuckers you see on drips up the hospitals.
