How was your first week?

Going okay cheers, just trying to get my head around everything. It's my first non-lab job so it's taking a little getting used to 

[StanSP]

Love stuff like this.

 

Seeing other planets relatively clearly is fascinating.

I was just out and saw Venus clearly, as always. Didn't see the others though.

Neighbour leaving their curtains open?

Spent most of my day off today watching old WWE wrestling matches on YouTube. Thoroughly enjoyable and I might book another day off soon to do it again.

Yeah Venus was extremely bright. Mars was visible near the moon too. Missed out on Jupiter and Mercury where I was.

Any updates?

Apparently the squirrel died of rabies 

[Daggers]

It’s two in the afternoon here and I’m on my fourth massive bottle of Singha beer. 
 

Anyone else half cut at an inappropriate point this afternoon/morning?

[Daggers]

I’ve realised that it’s entirely appropriate for me to be half cut. Move along. Nothing to see here. 

[Finnegan]

I think 2pm is a perfectly fine time of day to be tips on your travels tbh.

 

Stay safe Dave.

Wife: “We’ve only two days left, we should be doing something.”

 

Me: “Pretty sure drinking in the sun constitutes ‘doing something’.”

Not entirely sure antagonising your wife while inebriated halfway around the world counts as staying safe

Mate, I’ve been married for umpteen years - the things I’ve learned about Wife #1 this holiday has left me wide eyed. Trust me, staying here and drinking was a good move. We have to go out in a bit, it’s going to be carnage. Again.

Is she taking you Shark Diving by any chance?

Did exactly the same the other night half cut and absolutely loved it. Wrestling in general now is dogshit, but I loved it as a kid. 

 

Stumbled across the Undertaker vs Mankind Hell In A Cell documentary and fell down a rabbit hole. 

 

Late 90s / early 2000s WWF was great.

Been diving last week & spotted black tips.

 

She is dragging me to Bangla Road. She adored the katoey show we stumbled upon last night - now she wants to see the naked ladies doing naked lady things.

 

Honestly, I’m scared. I’m way too Guardian reading middle England village dweller for this. I’m going to spend the night in cross-legged internal conflict.

[Daggers]

Phew. Crisis averted. Cheapo cocktails won out. 
 

 

[Daggers]

Fvck. She’s slamming them like Ron Jeremy did date rapes.

I'm seeing why holidays stress you out @Daggers

Yes. It went a bit odd yesterday but seems fine today.

This.

 

 

I understand a nice city like Amsterdam not wanting hoardes of British youths in town considering there are enough other tourists like small groups and couples that rspectfully go due to the museums, art galleries and scenic nature that Amsterdam has to offer.

 

Lanzarote trying to aim for a more middle class crowd is absolutely laughable. It's a complete dive and the cheap and cheerfulness is the only attractiveness in the first place. If the Germans or middle class are going to want to go anywhere its going to be the Balearics or the countless other places in Europe like Italy, Croatia etc

Agreed, there was a comment somewhere here or on Twitter about no one speaking Thai in Phuket. Who the f4ck goes to these garbage yards for authenticity or class. People are there for mindless chaos, and you make money out of it. So shut up or people will be forced to actually use their brains to travel somewhere half decent next time
