Ha ha….yes @Wurger A tickle round the neck always gets our pussies dribbling. It quite easy to do really!
One last mention about the hour ahead..yes we are always one hour ahead of UK time. But, it hasn’t always been like that.
If you look on the map, the capital Madrid, is as near as dammit on the same meridian as Greenwich, which means we should be on GMT.
But during the Spanish Civil war in the late ‘30’s, General Franco became an ally of Nazi Germany and in 1940 moved our time forward by one hour to be in line with Berlin (even though they are over 1000km away!) and therefore cementing his alliance with Hitler.
After the war, all the countries that had made the shift reverted back to their normal times. In their infinite wisdom though, Spain thought it was best to stay as we were! Only last week, the Spanish government were holding talks about not changing the clocks anymore. We’ll see!
Yes, we have retired (I’ll rephrase that) we are of retirement age, but we both work for a charity and now work harder than we ever did in the UK. But, it keeps us “on our toes”
I bet you and Pen would have had a ball but I doubt you were even born in 1965 never mind being old enough to get into any clubs/pubs. I have a friend who saw a new band play in a pub many many years ago, the group were called Dire Straits. @Wurger
Oh yess I know what you are talking about in your first para
Aha interesting about the time in Spain, thank you @Latino_Caliente……. ah thats lovely of you both to work for a charity, I am sure that you and Mrs LC and the fruits of your labours are much appreciated love xx
Oh yes, Pen and I have spent a lot of time watching recordings of the “in” places in those heady days of the 1960’s….. places like the original coffee bars and then the Clubs ….…. I wish it was still there when we were old enough to go …….but you are right @steve19 we were not of an age that we could have gone….. even if our parents would have allowed it back then ….. Oh we have heard of Dire Straits, one of Pen’s fave dance tunes is their “Money for Nothing” love ….. can’t yuou build a Tardis and take us all back there love, please xxxx
I’m OK as I’ll be without as usual, so broomstick will be well controlled.
Slutty witch outfit washed and ready to go. Not an outfit to be worn in public as it’s pretty obscene. Good job it’s a private party then
Oh wouldn’t help Pen stay on broomstick @Craig1234 - she is very, errrr, how can I say this … errrrrrr ……. juicy, if you know what I mean and would tend to slide off as the stick accelerates
Oh yes, I know what you mean, but this morning he just ambled along to my desk and started wiv the small talk, and to be honest after a while I thought I was being “approached”, but fortunately it turned into chat about staff and this years increases - excluding mine ….. so I was actually quite relieved ……. chat was finished before any of the boys arrived ….. have a good evening and weekend @Craig1234 and everybody else, stay safe tonight and enjoy All Hallows tomorrow love xxx
I’m ashamed to say that I’ve just chuckled at the cheesiest Halloween chat up line ever for a witch, surely it must be “I’d love to ride your broomstick” or when chatting up a witch “do you want to ride my broomstick”!
Sorry, have a family member in hospital so haven’t had the time or inclination to visit the forum what with work, visiting and running a household, caring for elderly mum etc. Will try and visit more to clear my head.
