Introductions

I've heard of cheese strings, but I've never heard of drink strings.  Could you describe them to me please. 

All this time I was thinking it was hair in the booze.  Imagine that, drink strings.  Oh by the way, the missus has decided to get her own ID here as she doesn't want everyone to think that we thing/speak/whatever the same - My better half - Rose Petal.  I think I have mentioned once that she was also known as My Lady of the Roses.

Good idea! Welcome aboard Petal. Now give us the other side to all his stories!!

Hi All

My name is Emma and I am a 23 year old New Zealander heading your way in November this year. I am going to be doing a TEFL course at the Boland School as I will be new to teaching English. I am actually a television editor so a bit of a career jump but I am keen to do a bit of travelling. Never been to China before this huge leap of faith so any advice anyone has will not fall on deaf ears

Emma, you should talk to Raoul about Bolands.  Their reputation has gone south recently.

I'm gonna wait until I find out the choice here (not that there's anything wrong with it). Then I'll buy drinks

Drinks with strings?

Stil's conditions must be met before he forks out for a round.... his drink buying has "strings attached" hence, drinks with strings. 

Welcome em, have a drink on er.. George (I need to save my money for the move )    

Some people are a bit too free with my tab, Em, but since it's for you.....drink up!!!

George once I secure a new job then the next round's on me (I'll even spring for the real stuff )

George If I ask nicely, could you buy me two? One for Em and the other for me Em.

Sheeesh! It'll have to be a bloody nice ask!!

My most excellent Sir George, would you be so kind as to bestow upon me the gracious gift of 2 of the bars finest beverages. I realise as a peasant it is entirely inappropriate for me to even think of making such a request, however I've been told of your magnificance, kindnest and the awesome amount of knowledge your incredibly handsome head holds. As such I though I'd take the opportunity to make my request and just to stand in your pressance.

Your humble servant

Is that any good? 

Not bad, but I didn't see "please" anywhere there!!

Please ...
