Quote from: hellfire on December 13, 2023, 05:10:53 PMI hate weddings in general. A long drawn out pain in the balls.

Mostly they are but it's all about the band. If the band is shyte day is ruined. The sister got a class band at her wedding. They played jazz versions of Metallica and megadeth and a rake of other classics at the reception part when u arrive at the hotel  :abbath:

Any occasion where you're stuck in the same room as a bunch of pissed up relations is hell - weddings, funerals, twenty-firsts, communions, confirmations... Can't be doing that.

Exactly. I don't even like talking to half of 'em while they're sober.

I don't talk to most of mine, but when you're at a do like that, you get stuck with them. A table full of scumbag cousins, or the aunt who complains about everything. Fuck that.

I mean, I'd hate it if I was sober, but I wouldn't ever stay sober in that situation  :laugh:

My immediate family are a bloody nightmare. The sister is getting married in February and I dread the cunts. I'm off the booze (most of the time) but I'd be willing to consider a sedative of some description.

Could have been worse. Could have been Cadbury's Roses.

That put me in mind of one of the greatest internet videos ever. And it's seasonal too.

I've actually seen that exact thing happen in real life, but to lads on a festival crew I was working with during an exceptionally long load out. They went for some help and did not get it, you could say.

Soon as they copped it, "Take down that ladder anyway, I'm not going near it for the next two hours at least".

Great stuff altogether.

I knew what this was before even opening it.  Hope you still have the commemorative pedal of the occasion

The disappointment of those paper wrappers hit me hard as well. An awful turn of events but it has been going that way since the tins became tubs and halved in size a few years back.

Welcome to euroland

Quality Street and Roses are both fairly crap tbh. I think I'd even prefer a box of Celebrations. It's all Lindt and Ferrero over here at Christmas, everywhere you look.
