leginten Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 So, you’re holed up safely with your toilet paper, Heinz beans, Kalashnikov and packets of lasagne sheets. With the Grim Reaper possibly on his way to see you and no hope of getting out to socialise or travel for the next goodness knows how long, your thoughts turn to happier times. What was your last holiday abroad, your last restaurant meal, the last Hearts match you went to, your last concert and cinema visit, the last pub you were in? I’ll start: Last holiday abroad: Venice Last meal out: burgers at Innis & Gunn a couple of weeks ago Last Hearts match: Motherwell (1-1) Last concert: SCO doing some Mahler at the Usher Hall Last pub: Golden Rule Last cinema visit: struggling here. May have been Skyfall! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Hearts match was the celtic cup final (I don't get down as often as as I'd like) would have been going in April for Hubz semi. Last pint was this pub just 2 minutes walk away from me. Last cinema was that shite Tom cruise film War of the World's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
