Dear loz - there is absolutely no need for that post. As you well know the present Mrs H told you that sorry tale in the strictest confidence :-\

Let's just put it like this; most people when in a state of "Chillax", will have a nice little chat "over" a coffee, seemingly, our very great friend, (until now, that is,) had a full blown conversation with a bloody machine full of it !! :D: :) ;)
Sorry "H", couldn't resist.  8) 8)

Since no-one on here will have the first idea, far less care, what this insane thread is all about, I'll bring it to a close.

At was late one night, which is my only defense, that I decided to vent my angry on the coffee machine at Nevada Su which during the preceding week had either not been working or had served up what can only be described as dishwater. Mrs H isn't one hundred percent sure but she thinks the conversation may have been along these lines

"Come on, start, will you!? Start, you vicious b***ard!! Come on! Oh my God! I'm warning you — if you don't start: (a loud scream of rage is heard) I'll count to three. (Brenda sees me pressing the white coffee button, without success) One:two:three:!!Right! That's it! (Mrs. H watches in horror as a leap across the restaurant and addressed the machine directly) "You've tried it on just once too often! Right! Well, don't say I haven't warned you! I've laid it on the line to you time and time again! Right! Well:this is it! I'm going to give you a damn good thrashing!" (I then rushed off, got a branch and started beating the stupid machine without mercy). It was at this point that Brenda decided to retire to bed.

Can we now lock this nonsense please:(

John, I feel your anxiety and desire to see this topic end. As I did mention to the great if cutting GordonA - most of us have a story that involves too much alcohol and a coffee machine. Not all stories include Marmaris and New Year though. To deflect some attention from your good self, you may want to ask him about his coffee machine story :D

Post by: Highlander on October 16, 2011, 21:55:12 PM
Thanks :o

Well GordonA, or better yet Loz so that we get the true version, what's the SP:D
Title: Highlander Where Art Thou?
Post by: loz on October 16, 2011, 22:29:04 PM
Gordon has now decided that you have every right to chat to whatever machine will listen:D ;)  I think this is his idea of a copout!

Totally unacceptable Loz.

Out with it Gordon:P

H ..Nothing worse than crappy coffee.Definately needed a good thrashing.

Obviously in Gordon's story the machine won which is why he is not telling..: :) ;)

Okely Dokely, a large crowd of us, including "Scunner" & family, ;) the inimitable, two & only "Mr & Mrs.Crabbit", ;) our late friend John & his lovely wife Freda,:D & a host of others, all set off in our various modes of transport to Marmaris to celebrate New Years Eve, or, to give it it's proper name, "Hogmanay".  Anyhoo, the cost included one nights stay, B&B, ALL & ANY drinks, & as much food as you could eat!! A wonderful evening was had by all, but, when it came time to crawl off to beddy-byes, there was a full bottle of Raki left on our table. I decided that I was going to have it,(don't even like it ):P so, stuffed it into my coat, which I had over my arm. Loz decided that she wanted a coffee at this time, to my chagrin. I was SOOOOOOO out of it,[:o)] that when the coffee machine decided that it was too tired to dispense any more coffee, I lost the plot with said dispensing machine, threw my coat onto a convenient sofa, coat bounced, Raki bottle smashed on floor, therefore rendering such a wondrous aroma of anisette all around the area!! It was ALL loz's fault, if she had just let me "party-on big fella", I would have left the Raki in situ, & found my own way to bed, maybe not my own, 8) 8) but I would have managed somehow !! : :): :)

I don't think there was any need for you to state that it was all Loz's fault Gordon. I would have thought that was self evident. ;)

I do however have one question. Why did, otherwise apparently sensible people decide that it was a good idea to decant to Marmaris :o

A five star hotel, New Year Dinner, use of all facilities like the sauna, all drinks included, room, breakfast for about £40 per person as I recall. It was brilliant  :)

Totally agree with you there (now is that a first?: :) ;))
You had to see some of these members at breakfast the following morning, a Halloween fancy dress makeup artist would have been proud of them: :)[:o)]

What Gordon is missing out:
His alcohol intake was very much curtailed the following day, or the following week for that matter, it is a a bit like the 'current' Mrs H curtailing the vodka (not the tonic) intake the following evening: :) ;)
Men behaving badly? You Bet!
