Soap: Boots Vintage
Aftershave: Astral Cream (soft)
EDT: Serge Lutens Chergui

I have not posted for a week as I was admitted to hospital with severe stomach pains, only to be diagnosed with suffering from acute Pancreatitis, anyway after a weeks first class treatment and a goodly lot of Morphine I am out and now feeling quite well (that Morphine delivered I.V. in 60's speak is 'real good shit man!')

The cause Whisky, a bottle a week for the last 18 or so years seems to have taken it's toll and I have had my oracle read about packing in, advice I am taking, not that there's much choice.

I did manage to shave each day in hospital with a Schick J1 and a tube of cream, I choose the times when I was 'high', no damage to report though!

Regards
Dick.
Had to look up what this is Dick - it sounds painful - but glad you're back with us. I suppose life becomes a balancing act as you get older - quality as opposed to length - so maybe cutting down to half a bottle is your answer.:p

I read something recently along the lines of - all those health freaks are going to feel pretty stupid when they're old and dying of nothing.

Sounds about right to me - I'm thinking of buying a pipe when I retire. They say it's the best way to enjoy weed. Does anyone still call it that by the way?
