Yeah. I'm taking one of those yachts for the night. Small talk with security and sharing spliff. Sorted
Not just alcoholics but men in general... I quite like the barmaid. This is possibly the biggest fault of all alcoholics.

She isn't being nice to you because she likes you, it is her job!

Every fucking time.
How have you gotten to your age and experience and still be lamenting this like the world and women owe you something?
You haven't read the entire thread have you?
A sense of humour is sometimes a very valuable thing. Just go a few posts backwards.
I have read this thread. You are still a self important man.
...and there is the rub/misunderstanding. That is okay/fine as a stand alone, not when you are comparing yourself to or positioning yourself with random barmaids, or any woman. Learn this lesson ffs!Very important as far as I am concerned. Thanks

I Did it without help from family. Bought a small flat on 100% mortgage some years ago and was working for a university at the time so not earning heaps by any means. But it was hard, even though I was fortunate enough to be able to do it. Plus it wasn't in London.I have never tried to deny my alcohol addiction. I am one of those annoying 'functioning alcoholics' who manage very well despite it. I enjoy it. It takes the nasty edge off life and enables me to gain much more pleasure and freedom from everything.
You want a house? Fair enough - you pay for your house, but you never try and judge anyone else for choosing not to be a fucking slave to the system just because they weren't born into money. I do not know anyone in this World who has managed to get on the property ladder without a little help from parents, or family. Nobody, and I know many high earning people.
I'm going to take another break from this shit. I don't hate. I just feel a bit sorry for you all.
I'll be back when I finish my journey.
That's my morning gone then. I've got load of stuff to do too. Thanks...This guy tried something similiar, but they wouldn't have it.
Next time, I'll spend the money on drugs instead.
Worth a read, funny as fuck.
I bought a two bed flat in london zone 5, in my first year as a teacher (1996). 100% mortgage. No financial help from parents etc.I Did it without help from family.

If you're an addict by definition you're a slave. And while you might not have a bricks and mortar home or regular job don't make out you're outside the system, you depend more than anyone else here on the system, on other people in the system.I have never tried to deny my alcohol addiction.

I may aim to reach Faro by tomorrow night. Possible couple of villages on the way which may tempt me now I am not desperate for cash mind.
Sadly, Faro is one of the most boring, shittest places ever.

Not to mention unfortunate
Stanley swooped down like a lame wolf on the fold...I don't mean to piss on Stan's parade, but this really is the case. Had booked a week there a few years back, but thankfully my friend talked me into spending most of the time in Lisbon instead. Not sure what I would have done in Faro for a week. Not even that many bars IIRC. Think it's just known because that's where the airport is.
Same here. I was working as a secretary at an insurance company and earning a pittance, but it was just about doable back then.I Did it without help from family. Bought a small flat on 100% mortgage some years ago and was working for a university at the time so not earning heaps by any means.

We're all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the starsYou never know. And some of us still like to dream.
That poor woman will be having nightmares once she realised that she has stimulated his libido. And when she wakes up she'll find Stan on the street outside the bar painting her in some ungainly and explicit pose.You never know. And some of us still like to dream.
