Did you buy me a beer while I wasnt looking?

Did you buy me one and sneakily not tell me and then drink it yourself?

I cannot possibly tell you what happened at my club last night

I did get home at 3

And managed to get away from several very yound OBs who wanted to go to a local watering hole with me

That was ririculous

They were all about 21 and I have just become 48!

They were, hpwever, charming in the extreme and mostly friends of a Ramos

There wrer 3 Ramos" in my time and I met 2 of my generation ones at the party and a son or 2 all of whom went to CH

I have managed to recall why it is that you owe me a beer, Robin! Let me remind you ....

And his poem so polished and shined
He really don't mind
If my grammar's behind
He's a generous soul you will find

But exactly which sea is he near?
The Med where the water is clear?
The Sargasso, The Black?
Out the front? Out the back?
If he tells me I'll buy him a beer.

.... and I did answer your query thus:

A beer will most certainly tend
To enrich my style
And during the while
Some long lost dear friendships amend.

So listen with care Huntertee
Near pasties and cream do I be (local dialect serves here)
And if you shall ken
Any Tre, Pol or Pen
You will there find my house by the sea.

I'm surprised that you didn't pull me up on my spelling, David

I think I was in a hurry that day

I will be delighted to buy you a beer if you are in London and give me some notice as many evenings in the week I have family (taxi driving) duties to perform

I have an extremely good watering hole in Chelsea where things can happen...

Let me know when you will be up in the smoke and I will but you that beer even if you didn't exactly name the sea!

Maybe it's difficult to rhyme with Atlantic, or Channel.

Well, there's pedantic and flannel?

Ruthie-Baby(old a/c) · Wed Oct 11, 2006 12:22 pm

he doesn't live near the Atlantic Channel...?

huntertitus · Post by **huntertitus** » Wed Oct 11, 2006 12:27 pm

Atlantic, OR Channel, I said

i.e. The Atlantic Ocean, or The English Channel

Scone Lover · Post by **Scone Lover** » Sun Oct 15, 2006 5:05 pm

I don't know, Atlantic channel has a certain ring to it

huntertitus · Post by **huntertitus** » Sun Oct 15, 2006 7:36 pm

I haven't had a scone in years

We used to make them at home

Do you have a recipe?

And when did you become morbidly obsessed with the humble scone?

... and which of the various received pronunciations do you use?

huntertitus · Post by **huntertitus** » Sun Oct 15, 2006 8:04 pm

I rhyme it with gone as opposed to phone which sounds like people pretending to be more posh than they are
