Afterwards, I drove on to the Tesco superstore at Abbeydale to purchase vital supplies including the can of Hobgoblin Gold Beer that I am currently supping. Why is the hobgoblin on the can looking at me like that? It's a brand new design. The stuff of nightmares. The hobgoblin looks like that Vance fellow over in America.
So that is all that you are getting from me tonight. I am thinking of entering this poor excuse for a blogpost in the "Worst Blogpost of the Year" competition. Perhaps it could win an award. A lifetime supply of Hobgoblin beer.
You're allowed a day off.
ReplyDeleteFeel better!
Have a beer???
Thank you Dr Bob.
Delete"Worst Blogpost of the Year "? Hardly! Have you seen the drivel I post most of the time?!
ReplyDeleteFeel better. x
I like your drivel Jennifer but we need MORE drivel from Florence!
DeleteA beer with a name like that should fix you right up! Feel better real soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Deb. Beer solves most ailments.
DeleteI would advise a covid test after a day or so. I know you already had it but...
ReplyDeleteCovid is a hobgoblin.
I just phoned Shirley in the city centre and asked her to pick up a couple of test packs.
DeleteI love the Hobgoblin labels :)
ReplyDeleteThere's all kinds of respiratory viruses going around these days, take care and see a doctor if it hangs around. You don't want to develop pneumonia.
Thanks for your advice Nurse Elsie. Any chance of a massage?
DeleteSorry you're poorly. Have you got covid, ss there's a lot of it about? I'm pretty certain beer is the cure. .
ReplyDeleteWe don't need doctors or hospitals - just beer.
DeleteBoggarts are more familiar in Yorkshire than hobgoblins ;)
ReplyDeleteI thought boggarts came from one's nose.
DeleteOh dear. Have you (self-)tested for Covid?
ReplyDeleteI probably would not have gone out of the house with symptoms like yours.
Hopefully, you'll soon be back to your normal good self, able to go walking, look after Phoebe and so on.
With a sneering, leering figure like that on the label, I would not buy this type of beer for sure!
In the previous can design the hobgoblin was in profile looking to the side but now he stares at us. I just phoned the missus in the centre of the city, asking her to pick up a testing kit for me.
DeleteI hope you haven't caught the latest variant of the dreaded Covid YP - your symptoms sound similar. I've read that it's on the rampage in the UK. Take care, and get well soon.
ReplyDelete"On the rampage" sounds as though you have been reading "The Sun" again Carol. Thanks for your kind thoughts.
DeleteNo, I think you've written worse posts. I've forgotten exactly what a hobgoblin is, and I have no intention of refreshing my memory. The image on the beer can is pretty cool though.
ReplyDeleteYou have written some worse posts than this one Andrew. One of yours was so bad that I fainted.
DeleteHobgoblin nor foul fiend shall daunt the spirit.
ReplyDeleteHe knows, he at the end,
DeleteShall Life Inherit.
Then Fancies fly away,
He'l fear not what men say,
He'l labour Night and Day,
To be a Pilgrim.
Everyone needs a day off. Sorry you are not feeling well. Be happy that JD Vance is on the other side of the Atlantic. Maybe that will help you feel better.
ReplyDeleteVance has said some pretty unpleasant things but I know it's all just an ego trip.
DeleteGet well soon, we need you.
ReplyDeleteI am not superman David!
DeleteSounds like Covid, Neil. Get on the antibiotic soon as it helps shorten the symptoms. Check with your doctor! Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteNo need to trouble my doctor Ellen. The test was negative.
DeleteI could have sworn it was King Charles.
ReplyDeleteSorry. No swearing allowed on this blog Bob. Thanks for dropping by again .
