Your being really offensive now, anything with no alcohol just isn’t beer. I’m not sure what it is, but it isn’t beer. Its called a cup of tea. Went to a wake last week, great send off, eulogy had us all in stitches and tears. Went to the bar for 3 cups of tea to be told they don't do brews! Rubbed their noses in their doings by telling them the guy we sent off was tee total, he wouldn't have been happy. He had been in recovery for many years. What a way to remember him! It's been a long while since I went in a pub that didn't do tea and coffee as well as drug laced flavoured water. Which I do enjoy, but not in the daytime and not when I'm driving. That does seem strange, especially at a wake.

Is the new term for funeral? No, the funeral was at the Crem, they have them there for convenience and easy access, being in the dead centre of town. After that comes the Wake or celebration of their life. With meat and potato or cheese and onion pie and red cabbage, but no tea.

I did tell my financial adviser I was going to get a 36 story tubular tower built but he told me plans had a significant number of flaws.

I have a strange feeling you missed a comma. Looks like you agree with me. So did you mean No, tea or coffee at a wake? Or No tea or coffee at a wake? It surprises me how folks are brainwashed by the alcohol industry. Given the damage it can do, and did in this instance. Being addicted my mate lost his wife (my step daughter), it caused osteoporosis of his spine as well as severe liver damage. They ended up giving him a heavy drug for the osteoporosis, one of the side effects of prolonged use can be cancer of the jaw. I know this because my ex is excessively fond of the bottle, has osteoporosis herself, did the research. So mate lasted since his op in October when they made him a new jaw from his shoulder, till being told in January the cancer has spread, he lasted another 3 weeks. Over the years I had helped my mate get off the pop, it's a nasty drug when it gets a grip.

Coincidentally I've got an appointment with the hepatology clinic and spinal surgery clinic next month. Quack referrals. Maybe is to do with the beer drinking thing. Hmm. Time for a little think perhaps. Or more beer ! Or this ! Cue Martin telling me to get a more wide ranging sense of humour sorted out.
