Not sure, I couldn't possibly comment as I wasn't aware of what it was like before.

Im up in Dundee today having driven through a snow storm from Edinburgh last night. I know its been cold down south but this is ridiculous and is set to get worse. Im hoping i dont get stuck 'accross the border' just been told there due to knock down the hotel next week for the new watersie development so cant stay here
Tony Blair says he doesn't regret going to war with Iraq.
erm....160,000 at least innocent Iraq civilian deaths.
How is that not in the very least bit regrettable?
He regrets it that much that he is now calling for our friends/family/children to go and kill Syrian friends/family/children.
More like calling for 'our' would-be petty criminals / state-sanctioned murderers to kill Syrian civilians.
Innocent casualties are tragic, but let's not forget it's a volunteer army.
He does regret it, he's just too weak to admit it.
Romantic was your solar eclipse story.
**Andy's sat in a quiet corner of the quiet Punch Bowl pub and Kathy, Jane and Kav walk in**
Andy: "Y'right peeps! What's your Ethanol-contaminated poison?"
Kav: "Pint of cider please."
Kathy: "I'll have glass of house white"
Andy: "Righto - Jane?"
Jane: "G&T for me tah"
Andy: "Knew it!"
Jane: "Knew what?"
Andy: "That you'd be a G&T lady."
Jane: "How?!?!"
Kathy: "Can we PLEASE just get our drinks and listen to Mr. Knows-yer-drink's so called solution to our problems?"
Andy: "They don't call the G in the G&T "Housewives Ruin" for nothing **Winks**
Jane: "CHEEKY BASTARD!!!"
Kav: "Okay okay okay cool yer jets all of yuz...."
**All is quiet and everything settles**
Kav: "So... Andy, what's your solution?"
**Andy clears his throat** : "Okay. Now, we all know that on the shelves there's Paracetamol and Ibuprofen and Aspirin and cominations of those and Cetirizine and Diphenhydramine and Doxylamine and Ranitidine and fucking "health shakes" and vitamins and lubes and herb and plant extracts that don't really do much at all and fucking piss flap potectors and...
All but Andy: "Okay okay okay alright alright!!!!"
Kathy: "How do you know all those medicines anyway?"
Andy: "Well I've been in your establishment quite a few times, to put it "feathweightley", and.... I read..."
Kav: "Read what?"
Andy: "Medical journals, the pharmacology of certain substances.... Especially certain yummy ones... Did you know for example that a person can come into your pharmacy with a dry cough that they just cannot shake and, after money is exchanged, they can end up ingesting a substance that will create feelings of euphoria, dissociation, increased senses, a feeling of warmth, closed and open-eyed hallucinations, auditory hallucinations and - most importantly - discombobulation...?
**They all stare blankly at Andy**
Kathy: "What!? What is it they can buy?"
Adam: "A plain old cough suppressant by the name of Dextromethorphan. That is "related to" - if you will - Ketamine and PCP!"
Kathy: "..... Fuck....."
Jane: "What is it Kath?"
Kathy: "I took Ketamine once... It was absolutely mental..."
**They all stare blankly at Kathy except for Andy, who's drinking his snakebite**
Kav: "...... So.... What exactly are you getting at Andy? How will this solve our problems?!?
Andy: ".... That.... is just a SINGULAR recreational substance that you have stocked in that sweet shop of a pharmacy you run."
Jane: "..... I see where he's going with this.... And while a shit load of my brain is telling me to call the police on this mentalist... The rest of it is seeing £10 notes just floating down on me in slow motion..."
Andy: "Try £20 notes... £50 notes if you will!!!!!"
Jane: "I know I'm older and supposed to be a responsible adult, but look where that fucking got me - So I'm down with this! **Grins**
Kathy: "I really could do with the money right now... But....."
**Andy looks to Kav**
Kav: ".... If we do this and it goes wrong... Our whole world would collapse around us, we'd lose our medical licenses, we'd be in prison!"
Andy: "And that's why we'd do this discretely and covertly at first - I could get some of my... I was going to say friends, but they're definitely not... My "acquaintances", would be a better term, to test the waters and make sure they don't blab about this to every Tom, Dick, Cunt and Carry."
Kav: "And how can you be certain that they won't tell the whole fucking world?"
Andy: "Because you have access to substances the likes of which nobody has ever seen - all in one big pot - and if they even utter a whimpering whisper to anyone else then the shop is shut."
**A long silence descends as Andy goes to get 4 shots of tequila and returns**
Andy: "So...... You all in....? If you are, then grab that shot and get it down you...."
**They all do, slamming their glasses on the table and laugh heartily**
