I just like the way the word sounds in a brogue. I like the way you spell it better, too, Sassenach. Whats it mean? Nm.... Googled:
The Gaelic term for a Saxon. Survives in modern day Ireland and Scotland as a derogatory term for an English person. |
Where I live the derogatory term for an English person is "bloody English". :)
|
Let me try to get this straight. Limey is a sassenach and that's similar to sasquatch?? Limey - what size shoe do you wear?
Note: This is only trying to make a joke about similar words. From the pictures I have seen of Limey, I know she is quite lovely |
Size 10 US. What is a sasquatch?
Just googled it. Yes, we have sasquatch in the family tree. Both my brothers' feet are/were size 16 US ... |
Limes! The tea arrived today!
I thought you meant you'd bought me tablets (which as I said I have plenty of). I'm nearly out of tea though. You angel. And of all the people in the world, I know you'd never buy me fennel tea (which is a common one for weightloss/ cleansing/ liver detox.) One of these days I really will write Cherry's List of Common Foods Which are Intolerable. I'm sure it will be fascinating. I've been waiting for a £3.20 cardigan from eBay. It's teal green and fluffy. I'm gutted. It was sent on 4th Jan. The seller has offered me a refund. I think she may have kept it for resale given the bargain basement price I got. Anyway, Dad was all excited on my behalf - the thought it had arrived. He was susrpised when I wasn't upset. But hey, if you see a fluffy teal green cardigan, do wrestle the wearer to the ground and demand to see a proof of purchase. And thank you. Very kind and much appreciated. |
Fennel is disgusting! I think the tea contains mint and nettle, both of which you said you liked. I find herb teas are quite nice cold. But this evening I had a mug of cocoa. Proper cocoa :)

I am waiting-somewhat impatiently-for my valium to be refilled.
can't get a refill till the 24 or so which seems like bullshit if I'm paying for it myself. |

Serious note - if you are out of Valuim, you can make a "Camp Hit" coctail from legal ingredients. Take a shot glass. Add 2 full doses of liquid Nyquil. Throw in 3-5 tablets of Melatonin. Open 4 capsules of Benadryl (100 mgm) and pour it in. I'm serious about this. This concoction was routinely used until they deployed the Combat Stress Teams |
:eek:
Holy shit Sarge, I only weigh 106...that cocktail would put me down for a whole day! |
the Little Penguin, S.E. Australia Cabernet Sauvignon 2011. From magnum, a tasty quaff.

Bourbon, neat.

I was previously on a Xanax and Valuim regimen. I completely agree that the VA over medicates us and after almost 7 years, I do have a high tolerance. Plus, I shamefully admit to adding alcohol lately to enhance the effects. I am definitely a poor role model
Pico - that is a real concoction we used in 2005 in Al Anbar Province |
