Then felt surprised that I was so drunk I could see five of everything. I was very sick too.<br /><br />To me gin is just perfume-flavoured vodka. & no wonder they called it "Mother's Ruin": Nasty business all round.Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-45020869165788495702009-09-10T03:39:32.783+01:002009-09-10T03:39:32.783+01:00I never liked gin.

Ever since getting drunk on gin, I've not been able to get too close to those juniper berries. Brings back memories of being very sick.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-22524555958429359052009-09-09T13:58:35.915+01:002009-09-09T13:58:35.915+01:00BAINO: o no I don't mind spilling.

I wasn't so delighted to hear it's only 3 to 4 months and they give a small extension but I might get referred to Deep Psychotherapy ... how cool is THAT ha-ahaa!!<br /><br /><strong>SHOWTIME:</strong> Hi I'm always flattered to get spam. Where does it come from? How does anyone know about little old me? Where on earth would I have written about Little Old Christine???

We’re hoping to round up a few people who can occasionally contribute perspective (via an article/blog) on the shows – maybe a recent episode, future direction, plot shortcomings etc.<br /><br />What’s in it for you?<br />Primarily a larger audience back channeled to your blog. We don’t pay but the site has a lot of promise and we're pretty excited about getting it off the ground. Let me know what you think.<br /><br />Thanks(Best Show)Watchhttp://www.thebestshowsyourenotwatching.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-21047829525029118832009-09-08T21:48:15.937+01:002009-09-08T21:48:15.937+01:00You could try the HannibalLector Quid Pro Quo tact...You could try the HannibalLector Quid Pro Quo tactic?

I don't quite get why, I always thought British ones looked prettier on the page. Having said that both are historically authentic. I was quite surprised to see a facsimile of a letter in Elizabeth I's own hand at Hatfield House, talking about "rumors" about her "honor" ... which just goes to show ~ English is one language and I wish we could have one system of spellling <br /><br /><strong>AD:</strong> the only way I managed to get anywhere past that was by noting what "revelations" I seemed to come to and working on them BETWEEN sessions. Which is easier said than done. I think if anyone's an advertisement that Therapy really doesn't necessarily work it has to be Woody Allen ~ I mean look at him! A life shaped by days, weeks months wasted in that Therapeutic Office ... know what I mean ...<br /><br /><strong>AKELAMALU:</strong> aye I will. But they only give you 12 weeks, which I know from previous experience of counselling, is hardly going to be enough ...Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-56001194880550627422009-09-08T19:28:07.226+01:002009-09-08T19:28:07.226+01:00Well it's worth a try, you never know it may j...Well it's worth a try, you never know it may just be the exact thing that helps you.
