It's 2:20am and some woman just knocked on the door and said " Er, I know this sounds strange, but do you have any jif lemon?, my son's a diabetic and he's having a fit"
So I gave her a full jif lemon from the kitchen, what the fcuk am I going to have on my pancakes next pancake day now????

You can't make explosives out of jif lemon's can you?
only, we had a Police helicopter almost literally skimming the roof tops earlier saturday evening for about two hours???

excuse me for being crude
but,
was she fit?!


Not really, I thought she was a pikey asking for money at first. I was just thinking "Why did I answer the door?"

I couldn't tell who it was until I opened the door.
I know what you mean though!
From the loudness of the bang on the door I was expecting to get my head kicked in by someone on their way back from a pub lock-in or something.

Its an old trick........


No, because I didn't let her in. I closed the front door first, went into the kitchen got the jif and then opened the door and handed it to her..
As for checking out for burgulary, we have the only house in the street with a burgular alarm.

Trouble is that I don't know who she was, where she lives etc. Her car was parked outside next doors house. probably just passing through. She was about 25 had greasy blonde hair, gruff voice and a dirty tracksuit ala pikey.

Nice idea robp, if only she was fit, and she was local the I would have definitly asked for it back pissed or not, just for a laugh.

But if she comes back, i'll ask her if she could give me a good price to tarmac the drive.
