I just saw this on one of my daily rags that I read….
“Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, then travelling home, grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.
And the most British thing of all? Suspicion of anything foreignâ€.

I have never watched a “reality TV” show except one: “Blind Date”. For some reason, I found “Blind Date” to be great fun, particularly the captions/comments the producers used to impose on the bottom of the screen as the action was progressing. It was sort of like the way Biff inserts witty one-liners into many Brownstoner threads.
DIBS, I know and with junk piled up. I couldn’t bare to watch anymore. I don’t get it. I have better things to do with my time than watch TV, period. ——like post 500 posts on brownstoner about nonsense—–
“Ok, if people think Outpost is a good choice for the next gathering, let’s do it there. I’ll think about the date.”
The questions with this spot is will they have enough variety of drink to satisfy our thirsty crew (mostly wine and beer, though rum is mentioned above) and will they stay open late enough. They usually close at 11 but I bet they would stretch that if we were all in there spending our dough. You might want to make an inquiry on the phone or I could do it as it is about a 7 iron away from my house.
“Biff! If my pals on here want to know my name its all good…”
wasder, thanks, but I won’t give out anyone’s name or email address unless they specifically ask me to pass on their information to someone else.

I saw ‘Alex’s Renovatin’ (that’s the couple that was there last night) and bits of ‘Hampton’s Retreat’. I couldn’t watch too much, it was such dribble.
Please tell me you all aren’t serious about watching this crap?

Okay, so I checked out a couple of on-line videos of the Real Housewives on NY just to see what the hoopla is.

” wine and beer joint at night they have an awesome garden”
Ok, Biff, wasder, sounds like a good option to me. I’m all for feeling ‘special’! [We already are ‘special’, aren’t we?! ; ) ]
