Cold Ale - The Blokes' Thread!

[The Atheist]

Not meant as a divisive comment, but I can't help wondering if the vast majority of that is from the Ex-pat Pakistani populace, who always seem to have outstanding generosity within their communities. I sspect that it might be the case.

Yes, that could be it too.

Certainly a lot more Pakistanis than Haitians in UK.

Mountain climbing...is that an analogy...maybe parker was planing on coming back to the whirlpool

No, it isn't an analogy.

The only worthwhile use of Viagra is in combating altitude sickness. Works better than cocaine, apparently. It's also much cheaper and a lot less likely to get you thrown in jail!

I just had to post this.

Check out the posting stats between this and that sheilas' thread.

Ha! We're one ahead, lads, and that's without interminable conversations about vacuum cleaners and ear-rings! Tremendous coincidence, that both were on 3511.

They said it would never last. They scoffed.. They doubted, but here we all are, as erudite and well-informed as ever, and discussing the Serious things of life!!

By the way, anybody know Daisy Duke's vital statistics?

Not to mention not having to put up with that awful brown gunge that smells like stale cats' pee.

Pass me a beer!

No, but I can volunteer to find out?

One lovely thing today, as winter tries to give us a last blast - the sun coming up this morning. A red sky that correctly boded ill for the day, but regardless of that, a sky full of at 6.20 am.

The sun's coming over our way for while, sorry!

I am going to try asking my GP for viagra for altitude sickness and see what she says...I used Bonine last time and nearly died when I tried alcohol with it

Daisy Duke: birth: 1954, 5'8 inches, 36-23-35; now whether that was in the day, or not, I don't know...

[dafydd manton]

How the blazes do you find these things out? No, on second thoughts, don't tell me........... I don't think I could take it!

Are you off mountain climbing Sounds?

You can practically find out anything with google; but, I'm still trying to figure out why, with all the popularity you blokes have with the young ladies; the old cougars are still favorites?

One of my former youthful admirers refered to Sounds as a mountain that was once worth climbing...I was alittle hurt by the past tense

Cocaine is a vasoconstrictor, I'd think it would make altitude sickness even worse, you would have a harder time getting oxygen to your brain. Viagra causes vasodilation, a quick google search turned up some French study that it helps with oxygen uptake at higher altitudes, more than a placebo at least.

A lot of rural Columbians seem to chew Coca to help with the nausea caused by altitude sickness. I'm not so sure it would be a good idea to snort a line of coke while climbing the Andes though.

Aye, least of all if you happen to be the pilot...................!

I hope you made your point - with an ice axe.

As a bloke i am used to denigrating comments about my person - as have been discussed many times in this thread. Rhino skin helps and a certain - I'm over forty - what do I care? I'm not trying to impress anyone anymore - type attitude.

I think it's somewhat different for ladies though.

Any ideas who or what I can sacrifice to the weather gods, so I can get the silage done?
its nearly september for Heavens sake! (Or Hades'sake or Valhalla's sake I dont care). I want three fine days in a row please.

Ask Scher - she's all-powerful!! (I don't mean sacrifice Scher, I meant a sacrifice to Scher.........................) Oh, when you get to the bootm of the hole, stop diggin, Manton!

Damn Philistine! Send him to Parker for remedial lessons on how to treat a lady.

I can still hear the screams from the last one like that.

*shudder*

Yes, it's another handy side-effect, but I don't know whether the young female customs officers are impressed by it!

Correct! But "chewing coca leaves" doesn't have the same impact.

Done.

I have just now sacrificed three virgins, a cat and a prize charolais bull in the name of Freyr.

Fine weather for the next week for you.

It isn't Friday here, yet, so that might be a bit premature. How on earth did you find three vir........oh, never mind!
