Fuck brexit, and terrorism.
Sod natural and man made disasters -well just for a while.....
Bollocks to May's stupidity and Corbin's lack of statesmanship
And Arseholes to bad weather, internet trolls and Trump's dickhead Presidency
I had whisky cake last night at my sister's birthday supper.
We laughed and gossiped and drank beer.
We remembered old times and talked about new ones
And we forgot the ills of the world

How wonderful......even temporarily forgetting the hideous mess things are in is a wonderful escape.
ReplyDeleteHmm ...
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Ann.
It's nice to say and feel that sometimes. In fact it's fucking brilliant. x
ReplyDeleteYou don't sound a happy bunny today. Whatsup pet?
ReplyDeleteI love those rare times when
ReplyDeleteI can sit with a friend and
act silly and forget about
this ugly world for a while.
But then I feel double depressed
when, as needs must, I come
back to reality.
good for you, luv. that's what vacations are for.
ReplyDeleteYup, just about sums it up. Glad you had a good time with your sister though.
ReplyDeletei would love to forget about trump for a minute. but everywhere i look i see mr tangerine man.
ReplyDeleteMr Corbyn has shown a great deal of statesmanship.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. I am Yorkshire bred. More common sense than most havent we.
DeleteAye lass, tha's reeght.
DeleteOne of my favorite posts.
ReplyDeleteThe last four lines are simply poetry.
Just perfect, if you ask me.
ReplyDeleteChance would be a fine thing....
ReplyDeletei love this. cheers!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely the right thing to be doing.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is as it should be. We cannot live in the shadow of all the bad. It has always been there, and maybe always will be, but we have to live our lives, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for saying it. I feel much better now!
ReplyDeleteLOL, Here ! here !! and ditto to the Trump thing ... vile creature , ugh!
ReplyDeleteI have not had whiskey cake but I have had champagne and cake, does that count ?
<3
I feel like this at my age all the time. I am too old to do anything about any of it, I don't know how much time I have left, having lost my dear farmer I am concentrating on being strong about it for his sake, moving house before long, so packing up all my belongings, and getting out and about and doing things I can do, like learning and playing the ukulele to Alzheimer's patients.
ReplyDeleteThat makes me feel good which is more than the rest of them do.
Lovely to just forget all the crap and enjoy good company.
ReplyDeleteThings make you feel like that at the moment don't they?
ReplyDeleteThat whisky cake sound nice, mmmm
Briony

Brilliant post and I agree with some of the sentiments.
ReplyDeleteThat's precisely what holidays are for! Glad you're enjoying yours!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a break we all need
ReplyDeleteGood.
ReplyDeleteI'll raise a glass to that!!!
ReplyDeleteWell said. Don't let the bastards grind you down. Just keep doing the things you love.
ReplyDeleteWell said young man, indeed 'fucking em' is the perfect antidote to this shitty world.
ReplyDeleteHere, here....
ReplyDeleteI do agree. Have a good time.
ReplyDeleteMany, many of us feel the same over here. Enjoy your time.
ReplyDeleteWe are all thinking the same thing. It is now time to eat, drink and be merry. The alternative is to starve and be sober and deal with all the crap going on. I much rather the former.
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty much my new June resolution too.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a case of 'in vino veritas' 'cos you squeezed a lorra, lorra 'veritas' in those few lines. Do have some more whisky cake!
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments exactly!
ReplyDeleteThat post was almost poetry.
ReplyDeleteMy Grandaughter and her Mum have gone to the Little Mix concert in Edinburgh.Heavy armed police presence and no bags or rucksack allowed.Can't escape the madness.Will be worried sick for them til they get back home tonight.
