Irish Gin:

Posted by: Berlin Fritz on 11 July 2006



First knocked up in the early 1700's tis a good drop t'be sure, frozen cold, taken pure like Dutch Jeneva & Aquavit*


Fritz von I wonder who'll mention non Irish Gin first then?*

Just made that up, (could you tell?) quite good I thought!

No! Aah Well*

Fritz von I really must tell some local folks around here that the World Cup is over, so many of them seem to have forgotten to take their flags down?

You should have seen the pride on their faces driving around with the old triclour flyin in the wind (I'm being serious here by the way), but now it's back to normal Germany Chaps & Chappessess, well until the European Cup at least when the all of a sudden Turkish Chaps who found themselves Patriotically supporting Germany, will all of a sudden miraculously be full on Turks again, even though 101% of them were actually born here as were their folks in many cases too (many can't even speak one language never mind two)*

innit, teatime methinks, I'm bloody famished*

Who'd have thought it now Our Beano, now Dare's a ting!

I've just discovered Sid Barrett, Pink Floyd's founder member has died. Fan from your youth perhaps?

So LOrd Levy's been nicked, bout bloody time too, I wonder who's behind that then? cos it certainly ain't the Police acting on their todd and that's a fact John*

You've always got to find the wheat amongst the Chaff Our Beano, I ain't sayin what percentage mind* Mick'll help no doubt, though he's wisely keeping his nose out of the number one thread at present, wiat until he's had a malt or five, and talked to the old Pink Rushdie show pals*


Haven't heard him mention the old Pap du neuf lately, must be about time eh Our Mick?

If Our Andy wasn't so bloody busy studying for his O Level in English Language to make DCS I'd ask him to explain how a Lord of the Realm willingly goes to the cop shop, gets arrested (no Paperwork) no Charge? and is released on bail again?

Fritz von I hope he paid for the tea & Sarnies I know British Bobbies are so fond of purveying to their er, 'clients'

I wonder if Our Mick's pissed yet?

Water Cress or Cucumber & Crab Sir? I've got Mabel to cut em diagonally and take the crusts orf John*

I was struck by the recent 7/7 Anniversary that not one er, media outlet, paper (including the er, Eye) didn't mention the fact that Bush was in UK when it occurred, and had he not been they very likely wouldn't have occurred? Bush visits a part of East Germany very soon (security on beaches etc already looking like wartime Normandy at a cost of some €26 Million plus to the taxpayer) isn't Freedom in Allied lands wonderful*

Fritz von If one can buy fantastic top of the range Naim kit (at a whim) and $30,000 geetars (and isn't a dealer) questioning tax & energy saving is simply pathetic in my view, especially on this forum*

I think you could well be right there John, with possibly pears Soap hitting the beginning of it!


Fritz von Good Gwief Berlin Fritz has actually agreed with somebody *

P.S. The price of living overseas in splendid isolation for decades or more 'Family wise' is that one has to wait for news, and can't ask for it, like-wise when I'm in shit I do not publish it until the operation's successfully over so to speak, and if it failed, well there's no discussion anyway then is there*


Goodnnight*

I could try to reply - but you'd accuse me of waffling & not being in touch with the reel world! Big Grin

While living abroad Fritz, is there anything other than Family wise that you miss, like your Mothers home baking, or a pint of Tetley’s, pie and mash, the foibles of antiquated British plumbing?

I don't miss anything family-wise, that's a main reason I left to escape family-wise and think for myself without jealous interference 24/7. Not being a materialistic Chap, I don't miss those other things either, all of which I can make myself and chose to be a one man band long ago, and therefore know and pay the price for doing so, innit*


Fritz von I know others here who think they live alone, but in reality they don't, long cool winters, no visits, no phone aaah, innit sad. Soldiers and solitary prisoners have a knowledge that barring an unforseen accident or murder, they'll get out of there one day, and although I don't refer to myself here, (and my freedom) I feel that those long term unemployed who end up as junkies or boozers, or crack up too (unimaginative³), have no hope whatso'ever, that's why I'm always alarmed by philosophies by the like's of Our Mick, though I have great respect for true entrepeneurs (so long as they refrain from politics innit).

P.S. And Our Andy , Yes you're right, now get back to your chalkboard John*

P.P.S. Although obviously very hopefull that my Nepohew will fully recover, I must put things in perspective here having only seen him once many years ago with his younger brother. Barring my Mother I recieve no Christmas cards and haven't done so for years in this direction (from mine yes) so after awhile one gets pretty bored with it all (even e-mails are too much). So I get a call to say he's ill, now I have top wait and think about it, until whenever to say he's OK again or otherwise, I personally prefer the (Our Jay was poorly recently but he's OK now good Chap) know what I mean?


Anyway off to the Bog Brush factory now I reckon to chew some fat*

G'day*

I expect Our Mick'll be getting into full time Charity work now, though he cannie talk about it, or he wont get the promised CBE, then it's off to jolly old Spain to watch the Great ship sink from afar, and tell the Grandkids about his day when he smashed the Unions and their terrible blackmailing of the British people innit, even though he himself was a member (still is probably)*


Fritz von Mad or What! very likely True more likely Boyo***
Posted on: 12 July 2006 by Berlin Fritz
P.S. That German Taurus Diesel motorbike I mentioned recently built in India under licence, also has some Royal Enfield parts in it too, innit*

Fritz von And Yes thank you we know they're still made there too*

Does anybody know anything about the disease Greed?

Fritz,

Pleasee......

Its a dry-wipe marker board now, Harry.... Get with the times.

Thanks’ for the insight Fritz; I myself have family members, and so called friends that we never see or hear from, until that is you hear something like (in my case) Paaauul do you think you could...? Now in the past I would normally accommodate such a request but not anymore.

Whereas at the moment I’ve got some retired builders, mates of my late father actually, some of them I’m meeting for the first time, who have taken it upon themselves to build some walls for me, all for the price of several cups of tea and a slices of homemade currant square! (Greedy sods☻) It’s a case of your dad died early and we couldn’t repay him for all his favours, so this is in return. You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours kind of thing I suppose. Materials at cost and too!

Better than nuffin John innit*


Fritz von My jolly old sort for a boss has sent me spontaneously, totally out of the blue off on a course tomorrow at the end of the bleedin world (costs fares dunnit) for the next five friday's, got some bloody humour these women I can tell you*


Well I'll at least have a different perspective for awhile ( It's not mondays anyway)*

I've always found collecting Owls as rather Iconiclastic* I ain't sayin nowt though*

Can't accuse Israel for not going out in all out war bombing Civilians in Sovreign neighbouring Countries to get one of their soldiers back can we, innit*


Fritz von At least they look after their own no matter what the cost, cos as we know they're more important than everybody else, come on George why ain't you helping your buddies in the fight against terror then?*
Posted on: 13 July 2006 by Berlin Fritz
Saw some serious petrol heads in WA, though they were Aboriginis, not quite as refined as yer average Liverpool Street Meths drinker, or teenage glue sniffer for that matter either, ah well, innit*


Fritz von Our Fredder's'll be seeing Our Mick for A brasso tomorrow night, and when he's skint Our Mick'll look him in the eye and say, "That's how you keep rich Son"**



Goodnight:

Yes, our Fritz, the Israelis have destablised the whole of the middle east again in a typically heavy handed (not to mention illegal)over reaction and the US kicks up a fuss about the Iranians, who unlike the Israelis dont have nukes. No doubt Bliar will be banging on about how Muslims have no just grievence again. Bush will back Israel no matter how Nazi they get in a pathetic attempt to prove the Bible right concerning the jews and a homeland. Where will it all end?

I had the distinct impression that I met Our Luigi today, or somedody very much like him, innit*

What I think many people don't seem to realise Our Erik is (especially the likes of Ayre etc) that many Jews around the world do not blindly and automatically go along with the Israeli line (otherwise they'd all be living there wouldn't they?) My Messianic Jewish friend has told me many a tale, though to be fair the millions of non Jewish Israelis can't be too keen on it all either can they now?*

Israel's 'new latest'hard line undoing the last snippet of good that Sharon finally achieved by moving the eviction process forward at a snails pace, Lebanon will now react, and Israel won't suffer one iota, when Europe and maybe the States suffer consequential acts (possible?) nothing to do with Iraq, Stan or Iran & Syria, Blair & Bush will be blamed in my opinion, God help us all, cos the can of worms is being opened by them and them alone by not kicking the spoilt brat up the arse long ago*

Fritz von Tourism will stop rapidly to all middle eastern countries, you never know the Israelis might even have to get their own hands dirty in the fields for once, and I don't mean the self-employed ones either or Kibutz airheads either innit*

Talk of the Devil a missile had just whacked Haifa, obviously let's hope Our Arye and pals are OK anyway, maybe Our news is more level?

Fritz von I see CO 19 have just shot down a Harrier in Oxfordshire mistaking it for an armed suspect avoiding helping them with their er, inquiries*

Mr Henry was arrested nearby too, "Got yah Yer Bastard" "Oh Sorry Lennie, I thought it was a black Geezer" **

Totally agree. I have many Jewish friends and they dispair of the government in Israel. Israel and Lebanon are the brink of the abyss.

No disrespect intended, but this is the weakest form of wireless security you could impose. IP masquerading is easy to do as is MAC address masquerading.

If you are going to use wireless security, you may be better served using WPA or at least WEP.


You sure you don't mean WEEP Squire?
