Non Footy Chat Thread II

To be honest, I like simple. I wear a Citizen than the mrs gave me 10 years ago as a Christmas present. I only started wearing it this year because I thought it was about time that I got some links taken out of the band. I was also given some fancy-assed watch about 20 years ago as part of an end of year bonus but I gave it to the mrs. It's in a drawer somewhere.

Buy a Seiko. Much more charming. I have 7 of them.

An ex colleague of mine died of cancer while I was in Adelaide. He was only 52. First time someone that I know closely who is of a similar-ish age (I’m 10 years younger) has passed away like that.

Life is short. I stopped climbing the corporate ladder a few years ago and now just do work that interests me even if it means moving around the country. Making good money is great, but only if you spend it and enjoy your life.

I consider myself luckier than most. I was one of those who did the hard yards and escaped relatively intact. I now think of myself as 'retired' but not in a formal sense. Sorry to hear about your friend.

Stats tell me that they can't be all that reliable, then.

So am I. You reckon that’s all I do? I’m here communicating with you aren’t I ? How good is it ?

You bite to easy.

Keep chasing the golden chalice, f**kers. You're too busy dying without even living.

If you enjoy driving around. Seeing new towns. Eating fine food and consider that livings that is your choice how you chose to see living life.
Some people get more pleasure from the feeling of being needed, others have a thirst for knowledge and some just love work.
I know I have little interest in sitting on a beach drinking alcohol. It feels like a waste of time. I could be using this to develop a new skill

A church mice smashing $16 gins!

It surprises me how many people pay $20 for eggs on toast and get excited cause they sprinkle some basil and parsley on top. Then bang on how delicious it was. I mean its just eggs on toast.

That’s terrible Gaz. It’s a great attitude that you have. Money is there to be spent. As soon as there is a vaccine I’m going overseas.

I can help advise you if want a quiet room. Too many people think double glazed is the answer. It isn't. But if ever wanted to have better acoustics I can give tips.

They are. I could buy one every month. They are my favourite brand. But I only buy divers.

I do bite easy and if I’m moody I could literally kill you but later cry the most at your funeral.

Or maybe it is there to try and help others who don't have it or unable to get it as easily?

You potentially could have bi polar

Same. Wife and I reached the same conclusion recently.

I expect flights to be 2-3 x price. Wave when you fly pass.
And I'd say clear of the vaccine persoanly

No way you are shacking up with one of his nieces after that comment!

Agree. My son fed homeless people in the city during the peak of COVID. I didn’t even ask him. He used his own initiative. Made
me proud.

Might be hard to wave when I reclined in Business Class.
