what in the world makes people buy sovereign rings?

tequila is the king of spirits.

Its on a par up there for me along with girls who have their names on a necklace. and Elizabeth Duke "gold" hoop earings. Infact, anything that comes from an Elizabeth Duke box.

Listen up ladies, and I shall tell you how to be a real man. Or at least how to look like one.

Watches are permissable, but NEVER gold.

ALL spirits are to be drunk neat, at most with an ice cube if you're in a homosexual mood.

Wedding rings and knuckle dusters only.

Earrings are out of the question for young chaps, you'll look a right fudge-packer. When you're old enough to get bearded up a pirate style gold hoop in one ear is allowed.

Those chunky gold neck chains just implore me to kill you or make you my dog.

Nearly ended up with one for Christmas one year when i was going through my bad taste period, luckily they didn't have it in stock and couldn't be bothered waiting 3 weeks for it to come in stock so used the money to buy an Xbox instead.

Fwiw all i wear now is a watch, don't think i'd wear a wedding ring if i did temporarily lose my senses and end up married.

i wearf a watch, a black storm one that has no backlight etc so dont ask me the time in a club. i just stand looking at my watch like a fool who cant understand numbers (there are none on the watch either)

but its a nice watch and my arm feels weird without it. i do take it off when i am typing at the keyboard a lot, or if its a hot day/driving.

as for spirits, im not really a fan of vodka. i do like sambuca straights. tequila is the one drink gauranteed to make me boke. i can never keep it down, even if its my first drink of the night. no to tequila. horrible horrible drink.

i sport a lovely gold sovereign ring, its not your usual scummy one, i got it from the kays catalogue at a discounted price of £16.99. the ladies remark on it and why not.
