Miki Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 You know how to hurt someone Pucette.Dick and I feel pretty put out by the boring bit so much so, that Dick has gone off for a pint of Xmas Pudding and I will be settling for my last bottles of dogs b********s.Bonsoir et bonne santé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Actually it was a mug of warm milk due to the sniffles... retreating to childhood.My bank account often has at least 2 'o's - when I see it and say "oh oh". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teamedup Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 You'd have been better off with the Xmas Pud Dick, warm milk gives the sniffles rather than taking them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miki Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 OK, let's put it to Les himself. I am with TU, warm milk is no good for sniffles.Les, would you say, by looking at Dick's avatar, that he was a warm milk or a pint of Xmas pudding kind of feller ?If you answer that we promise to answer your question on opening a bank account. Well when the words arrive of course ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 You're both right. I am feeling right rotten now, but nose is clear.Have also just been informed (on another forum, by an American) that the British are definitely not Europeans. Discuss.

Miki Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 Not much to discuss really Dick, tell him to stand at Calais, at the weekends especially and watch us European Brits flocking in to Eurocity to gather up the European stocks of wine, fags, cheese and pate. Not European eh, well until the USA can offer us better pond crossing rates and cheaper wine etc, we will rest as Europeans I reckon..Hang on there a darn moment though, the USA does do cheap booze and cheaper crossings than B.F....he might have a point Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get London Pride in France? Or Spitfire?[/quote]Yes, DB is made by a small brewery, Wychwoods. Never seen London Pride in France, in fact I don't think I have sever seen any of the Fullers products over here. As for Spitfire I couldn't say. It might be possible that Mr (Beer himself) Smith has them in his warehouse in Calais, anyone know? This was on the net :-Dogs ********Real Ale, 5.2 percent Alcohol For the hair of the dog, There is no better cure No pedigree, this ale, just Golden and Pure This hooch is no pooch Just sup it and see Like a hound with two tails a wagging you'll be! A full bodied hoppy, golden coloured brew. Stygian hops from Slovenia are combined with wheat to give this beer a burst of fruit flavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been inspired to get some of Pucette's Pride out, a rare treat, I'd forgotten it was so good... would have my tail wagging if I were a dog... as it was the dog sniffed the empty glass, looked at me, curled up and started snoring... his way of saying "Pucette will be good for nothing after that" methinks.

Miki Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Just thinking about it happening chez vous made me laugh out Pucette Les, if you are still following this advice about banking, wave, or nod even, or like old Auntie Hilda, give us a sign or something, getting a little worried that you have been swallowed up by the French banking system, along with Dick's 0's ............

Although it might just seem that way because I haven't had anything decent for years... which comes to the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
