if your getting in the neck at home, it could be worse.......

[Harty]

Two of my Las Vegas party, who left for the states on Wednesday 5th Dec, got 'waylaid' and missed the flight home, the first flight they can get back is Saturday.
My mate texted me to say it was the stoniest of stony silences when he phoned home to tell his 'lady' that his trip was to be extended!
I don't know about a white christams but I can guarantee at least one cold front in the Findon Valley area.

 

[Mackenzie]

I don't blame her either!

10 days in Vegas...He must be minted to be able to afford it, by day 4 I would be doing a Ray Mears out in the desert living off Scorpions and what-not.

Besides, who needs a wife when you've got your mates!, pity about the result though Harty, you lot must have been well gutted.

The flight I was on (also on December the 5th), had a bunch of idiots who couldn't wait to get pissed up, and ended up getting escorted off the plane at Minneapolis. It's a federal offence to cause mayhem on a plane in the US - so they may have been detained or deported.

Coincidence Harty? Or...??

Can't say I'm at all surprised at the underwhelming welcome your mate can expect when he fetches up in Findon Valley. He's definitely occupying "Taking The Piss Territory".

I have to agree, I thought I was pushing it back in August 1989, when Mrs H, then only my girlfirend, picked me up from Gatwick, I took her for a pub lunch and then asked her to drop me off at the Goldstone in time for the season's kick off against Bournemouth. She was not impressed, even less impressed when I proposed to her later that evening.

You can't shag your mates

Costs just about nothing to live in Vegas. Cheap hotel room, cheap and massive breakfasts with casino vouchers, free beers when you play the bandits. So long as you don't go head-mental in the casinos, it's cheap as chips. What's not to like? Well apart from the welcome of Ms Frosty back home

No Darren and Jon were the advanced party and went straight to Vegas, the other 16 left on Friday 7th, all very well behaved, unlike some others over there.

You should never have gone on that stag night Ian on that warm May evening when your eyes met across that crowded bar. It could have all be so different. I mean look at Erskie now.

So Harty, did your mate get back alright, and live beyond his wife's 'welcome', to tell the tale?

had a similar call to make...from Paris...me and my best mate had only gone to Brighton races on a Thursday afternoon but one thing led to another and we ended up in Newhaven then Dieppe then Paris by 7am to watch the tennis at the French Open. The peace-making gift I returned with from La Collection Roland Garros was firmly returned to me. Bloody good day's tennis though - Kafelnikov v Pioline the highlight

Have there been any more ball-games in your life since?
