Are you working on Sunday?
Our lass is away this weekend and I'm contemplating a rare trip out into town but I usually drink with an older guy in the "oldies" spots lol.
Beez in 'Grab a Granny shock' !!!!!
The lad I usually go out with (Kenny Rogers ) is getting on a bit but we always have a great night, to be honest I don't mind, I feel young going out with Kenny 
Can't beat Flares for some top notch 70's disco sticky floor fun   |

a normal 35 minute journey each way took 6 HOURS 
And the worst part is i had to get into the back of my van, empty the last of my sandwiches out of my bait box and pee in it
SOOOOOOO ashamed
Now, I've stopped laughing, just out of interest what fish do you go after and what's normally in the bait box?

I'm not at work as such but I will be there as I'm kinda interviewing a dj. If your out I can get you sorted with copious amounts of alcohol and cheap champs
Got to be better than the Beehive, I get dragged in by my mate whenever I go out with him, now that place IS a kin' dive.
For some reason I always seem to end up in Flares, propping the bar up and talking ballcocks
Oh no, flares is deemed for the old and desperate And the beehive urm what to say, it sells alcohol
Yes anyway back to topic, this weather huh....terrible |

No, but my dog is called Woodbine. He was born without legs, so he's only good for a drag.

Certainly savage weather across much of UK, hope it all settles down for you soon. Yesterday in London was very different, calm, sunny, hot and humid, hard to believe that there was such heavy weather elsewhere. |

Heworth Metro down the road from me has just been on the tv, looked to be 3ft under water last night!
Loads of houses down that way were flooded, they were all out with their buckets bailing out their properties, poor b@st@rds. They weren't even in areas which I'd think were a flood problem, they just looked unlucky enough to be a foot or so below the level of the road. |

We have no roof. They peeled it off on Tuesday and Wednesday - just a bit of breathable felt keeping the rain out at the mo'

Took me 3 hours to get from Bihop Auckland to Gateshead, usually a 30 minute trip.
It's like a warzone out there, cars floating in the road, people all over the place I can only presume are walking home because most of the roads are closed. |
