Holy Crhow ! Is Adam aware we’re casually posting about NON-CHEESE foods in the CDR? I’m getting some shut eye. Really don’t want to be around when he catches wind of it all. LOL

Adam doesn't consider American cheese as cheese, so its probably better to talk about non-cheese foods than "cheese."

Hmmm.
It's advertising, plain and simple.
And they knew it would raise the brand profile whatever women's feelings on the matter.
Johnny Walker win.
I prefer Black Label to Red, but had never noticed what was actually on the label before.
Frankly, who cares?

Pendleton whiskey, (my whiskey of choice) has a flat chested, MALE bronc rider on its silk screened bottle label. They’ve got a “black label” as well, which is 100 proof and although I would be the last one to say it’s not smooth or too strong, it’s just that one evening I put away the better part of a fifth by myself thank you very much. I didn’t wake up hung over so much as feeling like I suffered a mild case of food poisoning. You know the kind, where it’s easy to identify what has made you feel off simply by thinking of what you ate the day/night before and you start to feel sick.
So now I reserve the “Black Label” for a double shot when I go out. Here is my standard bottle of Pendleton; Yes it’s about time for a refill, and yes it says “Canadian Whiskey” on the bottle but that’s a distillation type and has nothing to do with where it’s distilled. That is in good ol’ Oregon, thank you very much. LOL
And yes, that’s a real cork in the bottle top as well so we don’t lose track of those wagon trains we came west in.

Hey, Gang!!!!! The vet's office just called!!! Jacques' white blood cell count is down to 12,400- that is a HUGE improvement and shows she's responding very well to treatment!!!!!!! (Her count had previously been 30,600 which is SUPER high).

I'm so glad to hear the good news. You really deserve kudos for sticking with it. You've gone above and beyond what a lot of people would have. Be sure to post her picture once she's back home.

All about moderation. I can't stand being drunk, I'm clumsy enough sober.

Hi Macy

Hey!

 

[CarolM]

I have heard from John this evening on Whatsapp. He's been off work for a couple of weeks, but seems fine now. He is hoping to pop into the CDR tomorrow

Yayyyy. Glad he is okay.

 

[CarolM]

Good evening all. Sorry for my sudden disappearance. We needed to get to Birmingham tomorrow but with Storm Emma confronting The Beast From the East over South West England, we decided our best chance was to go this afternoon.

The first part of the journey was fine. The second part wasn't. There's a lot of snow, drifting due to high winds and we crawled in blizzard conditions for miles. However, we are now safe and warm and we don't need to drive again until Sunday.

We would go and do some unexpected touristy stuff tomorrow morning, but the weather forecast is awful.

Oh no. Keep safe and warm. Hope the weather improves.

Never apologies for being human Bea. We all understand and are very very happy with the fantastic news about Jacques. [emoji8] [emoji8] big sigh of relief and a huge hug for you both. Looking forward to having you both back soon.

I'm with you on the alcohol but can't say the same about the coffee.

Good Morning all. I hope everyone is having a good day. I am unfortunately in a very bad mood. I have decided to get Milley a companion as she is just not right ever since her brother died. We found someone who was advertising English Bulldogs. Absolutely beautiful puppies. Anyway after emails back and forth and the family choosing which puppy we all liked I asked the person where she stayed exactly so we could go see the puppies (they advertised under western Cape) it turned out they are supposedly in the northern cape. Anyway long story short it was a scam. Thank goodness I didnt
didn't pay them anything. It however still is very disappointing and really cruel that people run these type of scams. Anyway it has put me in a very bad mood. So it is not a good day for me. Sigh I suppose it could have been worse.
