Expand Whenever I read things like that it always makes me giggle at those friends of mine from home who were fully paid up members of the “Monday Club” always the first in the boozer Friday in work stuff, always the last out on a Sunday, chasing the weekend. I’m from quite a small town , maybe 3000 people , there other malpractice at getting out of work for any reason was attending funerals. As soon as someone was dead , no matter how tenuous the link , they’d be there suited and booted , 11 o clock , pints in hand . Genuinely made us laugh over the years at them often attending basically strangers wakes all to get off work . anyway it made me giggle the way you wrote that . hope you enjoy them in the sunshine 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
