TheNeil Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I have absolutely no idea how I've managed to gain this reputation. Of course, I've absolutely no memory of posting on here rat @rsed, either I see...so you have memory problems as well - that's a sure sign of being a hardened drinker (I lived with an alcoholic for many years. Sadly she's invited me to stay with her at Christmas, and you can't say no to your own mother can you ). The fact that you're also in denial doesn't bode well and I wonder if you hide alcohol around the house - maybe I should contact Mr Pearl and ask him to check behind the fridge, in the cistern, under the house etc. . The sooner you admit your problem and seek professional help, the better. We're all here for you though <'> (and 'no', I won't go to the off license for you ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheNeil Report post Posted December 12, 2008 Or it could be that Richard Hammond is behind every window now. Is he? Or do you just see Richard Hammond wherever you look? Does Mr Pearl know of your infatuation with short, over-enthusiastic men with stupid hair? It's when you open the little door with Richard Hammond in a crib that you really need to start worrying I know he does a good job on Top Gear but is Richard Hammond the new Messiah?
