Noticed lot of ref to Kuya through this thread.I havent even read the thread yet that started it all..what i will say tho is she is good friend of mine ,who I will agree has her moments, but is a very astute and clever lady,and without a doubt has provided a lot of help and support on and off here to people including me.What I will say is this thread is about getting and staying sober,and helping others,yes there are discussions ,debates and arguments,but lets be clear..this site is about alkies reforming themselves with mutual aid.I know how she feels....I nearly threw the towel in over another issue, but then Byrdie made me realise..actually you leave ..who are you really hurting??So if you are there Ky,think about it..yes we all feel like shite and want to sack it now and again, but rise above it do what you are good at..helping others through their issues and bollox to to the rest of it mate.
right peeps offski I go ..to sit and rest ..yeh right!!!have a great day
put some more pics up ..there are 2 of them showing empty roads and buildings...what happened there was the Spanish government would not let the properties be completed because they wer within 2 kms of the seashore, so there is a complete road and drainage system that goes nowhere as well as houses awaiting nature claiming it back!!
Empty apartments at Son Parc
road to nowhere
headland at white sands bay
look at the clear sea!!
Two psychics bump into each other on the street..
The first one says, "You're fine, how am I?"
in Ireland of all places. Anyhow, its getting towards the end of the night and the bartender rings the bell calling, "Last drinks! Last drinks! And anyone who can come up with the best cheers gets their last drink for free!"
After hearing this everyone in the pub runs up to the bar and starts shouting at the bartender their best cheers. The bartenders hears a few of them over the noise and dismisses them with a wave of the hand, "No, none of those will do!"
When its gets quiet one man raises his beer, "I have one! I say cheers to spending the rest of my life between the legs of my wife!"
Everyone raises their beer in approval and this man gets his free beer.
Later that night this man walks home and gets into bed with his wife. His wife wakes and turns to her husband, "Your home late."
"Yeah, well I won the cheers!"
"Ah, what'd you say?"
"What'd I say.." The man thinks for a moment, he doesn't want to get in trouble with his wife, "I said cheers to spending the rest of my life.. at church next to my wife!"
"Aww, such a lovely thing to say" exclaims the wife and she goes back to sleep.
The very next day the wife is waiting in line at the local bakery. A man who heard the cheers at the pub walks up to the wife and says, "You know your husband devoted the cheers to you last night."
To which the wife replies, "Yeah I don't understand it, I mean he hasn't been down there in years and I have to pull his ear to come!"
My tree went missing.
so I took a picture of it and nailed it to a dog.
Son: Dad, I like this awesome girl and want to date her.
Dad: Who is she?
Son: Our next door neighbor's daughter, Sandra.
Dad: Ohhh I wish you hadn't said that son. I have to tell you something but promise me that you will not tell your mom. Sandra is actually your sister.
The boy is obviously bummed out. He finds another girl, but dad tells him that is his sister too. This happens a few more time and he gets frustrated. So he decides to tell his mom.
Son: Mom, I am so mad at dad. I fell in love with 4 girls but can't date any of them because dad is their father.
His mom hugs him affectionately and says,
Mom: Son, you can date anybody you want. Don't listen to him. He is not your father.
>For Sale...
Parachute: $300.
Slightly stained.
Used once; never opened.
No strings attached.
There are three men in a brothel. One is going downstairs, one is going upstairs and another is in a room. What are their ethnicities?
The man going downstairs is Finnish, the man going upstairs is Russian, and the man in the room is Himalayan.
