Incidentally, talking about swearing, old Dibble came out with one that tickled me. I think it was on the breakfast thread:

"fking sticles" hehe
A bit challenging for breakfast, but all credit to him?

I've just lit the blue touch paper on a large firework and launched it into the discussion by adding to your comment whistle
I have to say though, the comment made by the poster that we both responded too, is somewhat of a pompous berk.*


* this is part of a concerted effort to be nicer, use less offensive language and also to stop swearing as much.
I’m not sure I believe that last bit, ‘berk’ being, as you well know, rhyming slang for a most offensive swear wordbiglaugh!

Morning all.

Today is going to be a good day, despite having to devote it to sorting out my shed and conservatory. I solved Wordle in two moves this morningbounce!

How is everyone adjusting to their new life on the lower slopes of Volume 40?

Good morning all.

Clear blue sky out there today but no evidence of thinking.

On the way to my meeting in London yesterday, I noticed the streets are now paved with chewing gum, Nice.

I have a feeling it will be washing and ironing today, although the management has not yet issued orders.

$26,000 to play with Dicky? Wait until Pequod returns and follow one of his racing tips.

That's all for now.

Yup, Bobbers, I’m at my place in Italy.

Glad the sleep is coming back.

Overslept a bit, no drama. 2 hours project management and then house hold chores before setting off to Chester Le Street to watch England vs NZ in a 20 overs game.

I'm at the site I walked away from 3 weeks ago due to issues with a colleague, over 6 months of a toxic environment, fixing things that have been bodged whilst he's on holiday. A call yesterday meant a 3 hour drive back. Seems one issue that was outstanding that he walked away from meant they worked until 11pm then bodged. I'm trying to resolve that bodge before driving back to Wales tonight...

You couldn't make this st up. Discussions many times with bosses were fobbed off, yet it's please come and fix it when it all falls apart frown

I've just seen a weasel.

Now I'm off to mend a shed.

I wonder how I ever found the time to go to work.

For those who don't know how to tell the difference between stoats and weasels -

Weasels are weaselly identified and stoats are stoatally different.

An underage weasel walks into a bar.
The bartender says, "I'm sorry. I can't serve underage weasels."
The weasel says, "That's fine. I don't need something alcoholic. What else do you have?"
The bartender says "Oh, we have lots! We have water, pop, tea, coffee, smoothies. What would you like?"

"Pop," goes the weasel.

Thanks for popping in and posting, unfortunately your post has been deemed "Non Trivial" by a panel of specialists, therefore we can't give you a Triv-o-meter reading.
