Sweet FA, if you ask me. As I am so lucky as to be starting into that marvelous thingymajig known as (gasp gasp horror horror) The Leaving Certificate (urgh), I had to quit the ol' job. So, in the spirit of peace, the ol' parentals decided (without my input, grrrr) that MAYBE (just maybe) 25 Euro was enough to get me by per week. That's EVIL (and not the good evil either). My ever-growing CD collection is on a growing hiatus until...NEXT SUMMER!!!! What in the name of the realm of St. Lucifer (hee hee St. Lucifer...I DO amuse myself)??
Why, I ask you?!?!?!?!?!?!
you can copy mine, its all good, go to music swap and post your details and we'll see what we can do.

recommend the shave gel. it's got herbal stuff to give a real close shave and look after your skin. it also smells and tastes nice

wow exotic ingredients and tastes nice!sounds like your mums bbq sauce sham
the evil belly
10-09-2002, 23:59
not as good it's got no sugar and u can't shave in bbq sauce cos u end up trying to hack your face off with the razor so u can eat it. don't try it it's not as nice as ribs

The Gateway (near Nancys) has a happy 3 hours every day from 4 to 7 with pints being 2.60Euro and shots being 2Euro. It's always funny to locked at 5 in the afternoon....
or u could go to the offy and go home and get wasted and not have problems with bouncers etc.

then why is u a veggie if u likes meat?
I love meat, but was a successful vegetarian for a year. Then I got amenmic and had to start eating meat again. But it's not that hard. Not like giving up chocolate or anything... Sweet, precious, life- giving chocolate :love:. Ahem. :umm:

Where would we be without sweet chocolate... or SWEETS!!! Imagine life without sweet. what a cold, cruel, dark world that would be. However, there would be a lot less fat american people (poor sods). I wonder what the best type of choccie is? I vote Kit Kat choccie. I once got a KitKat Chunky wit only yummy choccie, no icky biccie. (to coin a nifty phrase).
Oh dear God, life wouldn't be worth living! Imagine it... we'd all be slim and healthy. It's too horrible! I can't go on! But anyway... I don't like KitKat, myself... Dime bars, they're good, or any kind of M&Ms, maybe mint/ golden crisps, or Minstrels. That's all I can think of now.

Cabbage? Disgusting...
Although, in fairness, it is not as bad as turnip...
the evil belly
19-09-2002, 13:34
cabbage is grand as long as it's cooked with the bacon
i like cabbage and turnip!!!
although I cant eat cabbage anymore cos my mum cooks it in bacon juice and it rastes horrible NOT in bacon juice.
I nearly turned back to meat last sat night. Jen's mum was cooking steak and I nealry passed out cos the smell was so yummy!

by the way i'm being treated to the spur steakhouse challenge for my birthday. you have 1 hour to eat a 64 ounce steak. thats 4 pounds or to the metric amoung us about 1 and a half kilos. sounds way better in ounces though, it's the only way to measure a steak
Originally posted by the evil belly

Yeah, I did, but I don't really like a lot of green vegetables. And I was taking iron tablets, but according to the doctor, meat is the way to go for an iron deficincy.
