Coming up to 20 years since the Slipp Inn!

[Hester]

20 years, folks! Have to give them credit for sticking it out with a public face of being together. And producing three lovely kids 😬...

[Thistle]

Let all celebrate the mythical chest rubbing competition! And how Felipe and Nikolaus did their great escape

Ah, yes, the legendary chest rubbing

It isn’t that hard to stick it out when you are talking about money. Mary didn’t have great prospects in a Australia.

[Royal Me!]

Right.  And with ...
a multi-room palace to never see each,
nannies to buffer/eliminate the hardship of single-parenting,
an annual welfare budget that's like none other,
what else?

The only other thing I can think of is a PR team to clean up messes

20 years, huh?! It seems like they both are about to turn 60. Whaa, I guess that what lies, pretence and luuve will do to you.

One should be careful what one rubs

Had to meet someone for a chat after work and they suggested here. Apparently (according to the plaque on the wall outside) this was where some lady met some inbred European royal and subsequently kept women's magazines in business for the next decade or so. I suspect the place is a little different now. It's gone all faux Mexican (fexican). Done in a sort of overtly ironic/hipster way that makes me want to reach out and pull someone's well-groomed beard out by the roots..

The beer selection wasn't bad. The prices were pretty average for a city pub. Service was good though one of their bartenders was trying to set the world record for slowest beer pour. If you got the other one you were fine.

Although we didn't eat, the tex-mex style menu looked good enough that I'm tempted to go back and try it. Not sure I can face the ironic decor though.

  Technically, the encounter probably increased the Nordic genes in the DRF:

Vikings are still running rampant through Scotland as, according to the researchers, 29.2 per cent of descendants in Shetland have the DNA, 25.2 per cent in Orkney and 17.5 per cent in Caithness. This compares with just with 5.6 per cent of men in Yorkshire carrying Norse DNA.
