Had a seriously good drinking weekend BR, completed the session about 4am this morning, I believe I may be at death's door.
Me too Baggy! Had a good oul drink on Saturday. Lager, a strong IPA from Marstons, a few stouts and a jorum of Spanish brandy Then had a feckin chicken phaal when I got home
Had a couple more beers yesterday then unwisely opened a bottle of Amontillado that was lurking in the cupboard and proved to be rather moreish.
Might as well finish the season in style, unlike those curmudgeonly buggers who foresook the entertainment at Ravers for cricket and Britain's got Talent or whatever

Red retro is an excellent shirt
Have one myself
However washing is a ball ache as it needs to be washed at a different temperature and cannot be tumble dried
Ballix. Them labels are there to be ignored.
Wash everything at 40C and tumble dry everything that doesn't look as if it could melt. I would use a wee colour catcher for the red stuff mind.
Hark at this , some of yousens would make decent husbands, I'm impressed.
Colour Catchers an all
Ah well WW. Weren't you the one who ended up all in pink before it became part of the Kukri Ulster ensemble?
Ha! I did actually accidentally dye one of himself's white shirts years ago. When I tried to fix it, the Shell sticker on the back fell off but I think that happened with most of those shirts that particular year in fairness.
It was at that point that I discovered Colour Catchers.

I was somewhat less eclectic Merv a lock or close on a lough of Genius on Saturday followed by a manky Dominos when I got home, yesterday made a good roast chicken & baked ham dinner, started drinking a slap of wine and played our favourite family game, linking an ipad to the music system in the kitchen and working clockwise round the table taking turns at what music was played, fortunately we all have magnificent taste so all good.
Anyway, to cut a long story short , my son and I lasted longest until about 4am, still I had a good lie in this morning.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
Soaks up sweat well Russ, actually does quite well in high 40's C.
I can wear it on the tube then
Chube on a tube!
One thing about the 100% polyester stuff: it's designed to wick the sweat away from your body and drys very quickly so doesn't need tumble dried. Just stick them on an airer overnight and they're dry in the morning.
I wouldn't put any of the stuff that has decal type lettering in the drier anyway.

I'm going to have to give serious consideration to washing and drying properties, sweat absorption or repellent, the latter in the case of my manky pits, the permanence of decals, the likelihood of colours being successfully caught and doubtless the aesthetics when purchasing my next season's shirt. I had previously thought it more simple - XL or XXL.
Clearly I shall have to spend much of silly season planning this purchase.
