I went to the Imperial War Museum to have a look, they also have a Holocaust Exhibit which is very interesting and very moving indeed. If anyone happens to get the chance, I highly recommend it. Free entry and go to the info desk for a ticket for the Exhibit which is on the second floor and free as wel (but a ticket is needed for entry) . On my past travels to London visiting that museum was my favorite experience. I spent a half day there (travelled to and from on The Tube). I could have easily spent two days there. Absolutely fabulous. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now find that it often takes me nearly two days for a reasonable recovery from a piss up. Used to take one. My booze intake is for sure on a decline. Proper management (drinking some water, snacks) on those fewer occasions are fully in order as well. I am finding the depression (negative thinking and such) sets in heavy on those recovery days. As I am thinking on normal days I am very relaxed and in many ways happier than I have ever been. I find myself asking more and more - "why do I do that when it fucking spoils so many otherwise good days".

Derek Dangleberries Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 The bar and gogo thread and my responses to '96 made me think of the person that got me here. Our common ground was that he was a Pontins Blue coat whilst I was a Sgt serving in NI. We held eachother in mutual respect. Sadly he passed away a few years ago. Take it away Niell!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
