I hired a jetski in Alcudia a few years back and it cost me double that. For about half an hour.

I reckon the airline companies should start hiring out jetskis too. And Opel Astras or whatever they call them over there.

With a broken bloody headlight incidentally. And a cracked bumper

Think you hired a Motorbike instead of a Jetski if it had knackered lights & a bumper.

Not sure you should be trusted with these missions frankly!

Curses. We've run out of nougat.

I hear Ireland has run out of Guinness.

No good was ever going to come out of damming the Liffey.

Oh, Very Good

I'd heard that Guinness had ran out of Ireland. They're expecting him to arrive on a ferry at Holyhead later this morning.

Trivial - we lived in Knowle (other side of Solihull) in the 70s & could hear the bombs in Birmingham.

Good man! Can't be much fun trying to keep them in order whilst doing your job!

Good luck cooped. What is it, Chicken Sexer? My mate did that once, I tried to ask him about it but he got funny and we aren't friends any more.

Good luck, coop.

Nothing trivial happened today and my new laser guided trivometer design failed in its first tests.

[fatboy18]

I spent the day outside clearing guttering and making good a large window UPVC frame which had been fitted by the cast of the High Chaparral

You should have used organic trivia for the first ten days.

Pollyanna was surveyed today.

Didn't get any calls to say there are repairs needed so hopefully I've dodged the bullett...... Again!!

Sounds like the same crew who replaced my neighbour's gutter a while back. In relation to the downpipe, the bloody thing slopes the wrong way...

My dad had a friend who enjoyed the TV cowboy series Bonanza and would retell whole episodes for his unfortunate listeners. Apart from enduring his recitations his audience also had to put up with his being unable to say Bonanza. He said Bonzonza. It was torture.

My old Gran used to say 'cerstificate' instead of certificate. And 'penicillian' and 'paraceptamol' too.

Loved all things medical related she did. Suffered a stroke in her early 70's, the doctors' prognosis at the time was she had about 2 weeks left to live.

She died 26 years later. They don't make 'em like that anymore.

[lucido grigio]

Bonzonza was the Bollywood version....

Different Indians in that version.

My colleague regularly cocks up what he says. Regular highlights include:

'I'm unindated with work' - presumably not much to do then
'We were working ten to the dozen' - I usually reply that he needs to pick up his pace then, but he doesn't get it
