Bloody hell. Where have you been?
Drop Tilly. I’ve been down that road dozens of times. Drop it.
I’ve never been to a funeral for a friend. I suppose that’ll start happening rather soon-ish. In your 20’s you attend tons of weddings. Then they drop off to never.
If I drank two and a half pints on a Friday, I’d require hospitalization. I couldn’t drink half as much. It’s a curse, really.
Helllo Exile – that’s an unusual time for you to be online.
I’ve been really busy, anti-fracking, drinking, sorting new lodgers out, taking my girls here there and everywhere. No excuse though.
I’ve been to too many funerals of people my age. Cancer, most of them.
I think you’ve got that gene that many SE Asian people have where they can’t drink much. Which is strange, from someone with Polish blood in him. I always think of Poles as pretty sturdy drinkers.
Sorry to be a bit slack in my own comments lately. I will pick it up soon. I do read everything though.
Shame about Tilly but move on I suppose.
I’ve done a lot of funerals for friends sadly in the last year - seems to be all those of us who considered 10 pints on a Friday a warm up are finding that kind of excess catching up on us unfortunately.
I dug out the will recently. It desparately needs an update - thanks for the reminder it had fallen of my to do list. Simply the guitars will go to my son, some money to AA, the rest to my wife or if she’s somehow predeceased me then to the the kids. Seems simple but even recently some guy who had a will written and clear that his ex should get nothing still had that overturned in the courts. The bloody system still is after you when you go it seems.
Hi F — yes, that’s why I was very surprised when my liver test results came back normal last year. That’s no guarantee of anything I know, but was a relief after I was convinced she’d tell me that I had to stop drinking, which I must confess would be an awful future to contemplate. I enjoy it immensely and it’s the central factor in my social life.
I signed mine and Kirsty’s house over to her a few years ago so we should be OK in that respect.
Concur on Tilly. Should you later find that it was a miscommunication of some sort, that would be a lovely surprise, but most likely she’s ghosting you…
Sorry about your friend. i’ve buried a few too many friends at 53 years of age, and there’s simply nothing pleasant about it. You and your mates did it right, though… Celebrate, dance, and remember the good stuff. Not much point in weeping and wailing…
My friend was advising me the other night just to ask her out one more time, just straight out ask her down the pub. I’ve known her for over twelve years and it’s most unlike her to blank anyone.
And thanks… people I know either go in their 50s or they go on to night on 100. No-one dies at a normal age any more.
