You know, don't start on that. I'm almost never home in the evenings. But there aren't any young guys at my church, and the nicer people I meet out and about are all married.
I don't sit at home all day and watch TV and wonder why I don't meet people, believe it or not.
Gotta run.
Please pray. Nana just fell, wife is still throwing up.
I'll be back when I can.
You're old fashioned in a lot of ways, yet you're here talkin' to people.
Oh dear....
Oh dear...
Post as soon as you can!
Ditto... I'm at school all day, and I try to go to church but there haven't been any guys there, and all right, my social life is a little lacking but it's because of homework, not being antisocial. And I have friends, male and female. Just not that sort of friend.
Anyway, the pub sounds like fun! What night is the session?
Old fashioned morality and gender-role issues. New-fashioned methods of living up to same. Does that make sense?
Ooops, class time.
Sunday evenings...which I imagine means it isn't the rowdiest of crowds. ;-) Probably quite a few just there for a few drinks and some conversation, and of course to play / listen to the music.
All good!
That's a pub!
Not to me, but I'm sure it does to you... ;~D
And the difference is?
You gotta realize that in this town, at least...we don't have nice bars. No sports bars or anything like that.
The places that are termed "bars" are all pretty nasty places...VEY loud and smoky, for one, and places where people go JUST to get very drunk and hopefully pick people up. You can't carry on a conversation in 'em.
So I likely have a skewed view of the things. I have nothing against sitting around chatting with a few drinks. But that isn't what the bars here are for.
See the next post.
I think meeting a guy at a bar during an Irish Session would be just swell!
Matthew is making a birthday card for Celeste's son. They've known each other since they were toddlers. Probably Matthew's best friend. He's really something, incredibly intelligent. He's really in to current events, so Matthew's card says on the front "If I could vote for someone to have a special day..." then you open it up and on the inside it says "You'd have my vote!" then I traced Matthew's hand on the inside and he colored his finger purple like the Iraqis!
Musical talent is very attractive... ;-)
Ah, OK. I use the term interchangably. Our usual watering hole calls itself a 'bar', but would be more what you are calling a 'pub'. It is neither dark nor seedy, and serves great burgers and pizza. And alchoholic beverages.
Yeah...there aren't any places like that here. They don't serve food, and it's definitely not somewhere you could bring children even early in the evening.
Mine?
