Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Evening all Our day today was pretty much scuppered by th weather. We were going to go to see The Giant's Causeway but freezing icy rain persuaded us that it probably wasn't a great idea so we went inland - and got caught in a complete white out blizzard that seemed to come out of nowhere. So we turned round, headed back to Belfast and spent the afternoon in the establishment below. Very lovely it was too. We used our time wisely - deciding who we would have if we put a band together. Singer, bass and lead guitars, drummer and keyboards.
Mine was Debbie Harry, Mark Knoefler, Jon Entwistle, Max Weinberg and Paul Humphries. Mr F chose Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Jack Bruce, Cozy Powell, and Elton John as the keyboard player. We're now back in our hotel room, allegedly to watch Newcastle but I can hear snores from next to me!View attachment 289577View attachment 289578

Nice pub game but you didn't give us the answer to the question that we all asked .....did you or Mr F split the G ? @Armaghtoffee

So without the benefit of any alcohol focusing my thoughts here goes ..

Keyboard - Rick Wakeman
Bass Guitar - Jaco Pastorius
Drums - Shelly Manne
Horns - Miles Davis and Stan Getz
Lead Guitar - Eric Clapton
Singer - Stevie Nicks
Backing Vocals - Simon & Garfunkel

Temperatures about to plummet so think it's a double duvet night.

Stay warm everyone.
 
Morning all. A very interesting 36 hours for me. Ended up in A and E with chest pain, luckily diagnosed as an angina attack (first one I’ve had for 6 years) rather than a cardiac event. There’s nothing like sitting for 7 hours in A and E to make you a. Count your blessings b. Get very angry at the state of the NHS compared even to my last visit to A and E 6 years ago and c. See what challenges we have in society at the moment.
Better dust off my GTN spray for Thursday night.

The Giant’s Causeway is worth seeing but not worth travelling to see. I have often heard that 😀

Nice choice of bar on a nice little street. ASH own a recording studio just around the corner from there.

Very bad road conditions here this morning but hopefully up in the Big Smoke it isn’t as bad for you.

Take is easy Val and rest up. It must have been a stressful time for you.

Of course I did!! Thousands of years of Scouse/Irish ancestry ensures that's a given.🤣🤣

It might break it but apart from that I’ll be ok

Make sure you wrap up well. ;) (think I'll be digging out the thermals)
Below zero temps forecast for tomorrow evening. That coupled with the stupidly late KO time and the possibility of an extra 30 minutes plus penalties could make for a long cold miserable night. Followed by the late drive home on icy roads. :(

Really sorry to hear that Val, but glad it was not more serious. I think I would give Thursday a miss tbh….
