Really? You got pimples and thats the biggest problem in your life? Are you reepbot?

Not at all, I am being facetious due to the fact that one post this morning about my pimples is still going. Anyone would think it was an actual real problem, you know?
 
Haha. Ok if you say so.

It felt a bit naughty. We thought someone had spotted us, but it was an American dude who had gone for a run (who goes for a run at 1am?!?) and so jumped the fence also and had a swim with us. He was pretty ripped, he would even put some of @Consuela's gifs to shame. I guess 1am runs is how you get that kinda body. Lol! Anyway... The funniest part of it all is that inside the bar of the resort they had karaoke. The microphone was coming through the external speakers but not the music. Provided lots of enjoyment for us to listen. It was good though as we didn't feel we had to be too quiet in the pool. This resort is massive also, the bar / pool area is nowhere near any rooms so not disturbing anyone's sleep.

what food? Like free sample food?

I only went to two wineries today. At the first (McGuigans), there was the cheese factory thing next door, no free samples. I did buy a cheese board tho.
Then onto another (I can't remember the name of the winery) which had an attached dessert bar.

We had lunch at Harrigan's Irish Pub today. It was packed, but I like that pub.

Oh and the MC stuff all went fine. Lots of laughs and a smooth running program. I really enjoy doing it for friends, lots tell me I should start up a business but I don't think I would enjoy doing it for a stranger.

Just to clarify as above, I was not seriously suggesting that this is adversity.

But yeah that does sound fun. I'm always suss on these night time exercises, however maybe you're right and this is the key to being gif worthy.

That sounds so funny with the karaoke. It is years since I have even ventured near such a thing but that is now a new fear, how horrifying if just the audio is heard.

Ok I have done two winery tours, one was brokenwood but the other escapes me, anyway, both times included an awesome cheese platter. The general wine wasting just included some white bread as a palette cleanser which was pretty gross.

Oh maybe cause you went as part of a tour? We are just dropping into wineries and doing the tasting.

And yeah, I can't imagine these people would have been pleased to know we could hear their voice without the music. Haha. We never did actually see them though, so no idea who they were :)

Oh yes that makes sense. You're doing it all wrong! But nah sounds like you had a great time, and technically it's all about the wine anyway. I saw you can do the winery hopping by helicopter, that'd be cool but just a tad OTT and well out of my budget. One time my friend and I hired motorbikes to do it except the wineries are all so close it became pretty pointless, but fun nonetheless.

Ha! How rebellious of you. Keep up this life of crime and you won't be able to travel overseas. :p Sounds like you had a fun day/night.
 
why would i be a bad egg?
I think he must have taken not being given an explanation to heart. He must feel not telling him was a snub. I think he is very forthright and the other bad eggs would know because he told them, probably politely through PMs or something.
