@very-rusty saidDo you often butt into conversations where you don't know what anyone's talking about?
What are you sorry about?

Wait, what am I saying? Of course you do.
@wolfgang59 said...actually I thought that I made another spelling error (I am prone to that), but it seems the error has been committed decades ago, since tarpaulin seems to be a compund of tar and pall…
"tarpaulin" that's a funny word.
What did Paul do to deserve tarring?
To discuss this Kind of funny factoids a Cocktail (from the feather which was used as decoration) Party would be great. Has it to be virtual at the times of mre or less Lockdown?
@ponderable saidI would think so, not only because of lockdown. Some of us have already met, maybe even over a cocktail. I think time may be a reason why this probably won't happen. I'm quite happy just thinking about it.

I wouldn't turn up at an event organized for a group of people from here [and that's even assuming I were invited].
For most people here, if they were travelling with their families or partners or in ones or twos and at most, maybe a group of three, I'd hope that they'd contact and be up for a drink or a meal or a day out as they pass through, or anything up to a week of seeing sights and doing stuff if they were people I already know well or have a shared affinity with.
There are no doubt people here who'd not bother to get in touch if they were in town, just as there are those I'd opt out of meeting. No problem there.
No cocktail parties though no mass meet ups, no permutations of numerous strangers.
@pachman said3 to 1 means bet 1 win 3 and your 1 back obviously. Maybe it’s the case of Canada/Ireland opposite land.
I’ve got 3 to 1 on Rusty!
Who wants some of this action?
Taking all bets.
Only one rule in this cat fight...
Their are no rules 😏
@fmf saidI doubt if many people know if they have passed through Human Condition East! I was human once but I had that removed by the NHS!

@badradger saidWell, duh...

No doubt, if I had to meet some of these fools sober, I'd pass.
@very-rusty saidHe spelled it correctly. The only cock at the party would be you.
What exactly is a coctail party?
Perhaps you meant cocktail party?
Would there be alcohol involved?
If so I would avoid the party altogether! 😉
