The, Snorky?s on one with all this thread starting business this morning thread


Recommended Posts

I'm going to crash a gallery tonight, and get ripped to the tits on free red wine. Then revisit it all over some unfortunate at a suburban station.


The rest of you bourgeois lamers will probably be sucking The Man's appendage - not like me and Dave. We'll be out free-sourcing till the last train to Redhill (11:03). And Dave's only got Zones 1-6 on his travel card, the mad fecker.

Snorkers


There is even a term for this artfully mismatched array. I believe it's called a "harlequin set" (oh yuk,I just did a little sick in my mouth then )



But it's the "exhibitions/shows" of dross travel/art photos that finally ties the anvil round my neck ........blegggghhhhhhh



W**F


* licking the gum off a dozen stamps just for the hell of it...mwoaaah ..mmmm*

I used to go to a few of those gallery opening things, when I had friends in the art world (before they all left London). On the plus side, you'd get a few hot women there, and plenty of free booze. On the downside, the art was usually shite and the places tended to be brimming with insufferable pretentious fops, faux-bohemian dullards, wannabe socialites, plus a smattering of city workers in search of aforementioned hot women.


Give me a decent steak and a bottle of wine at the Palmerston any day.

Anyone who pays anything ever for art, food, drinks, travel, houses, nannies, skips, blinis, casual slacks, rare '33s, lawnmowers, black polo necks etc is a misguided, duped, dumb, blind, deaf, mute consumer.


PS Tip about the Black Cherry. Go in, order two HeavensToBetsy's and then leg it with the free Bombay Mix when the Barman's got his back turned crushing his Juniper Seeds. You snooze you looze. I could tell you some tales.

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
