I'm going into Muttering later. There's an In The Dark Tiddlywinks Tournament at the Badger and Boardgame. Not official mark you, they're trying those illegal luminous winks. It wouldn't have been allowed in our day. There will be an uprising for certain.

Luminous winks? It's taking all the fun out of it. Do you recall the 'Nocturnal Twister' that ran in the B&L some time ago? I still can't extend my left arm properly after that, I'm sure it was Big Shirley who sat on it.

'Shirl the Whirl' they used to call her.

It wasn't Big Shirley ,it was Obese Olivia ,her twin sister ,easy mistake to make.

She's now 33.5 stone.

Did she ever receive treatment for her walnut based confectionary addictio ?

[DickyC]

Someone has stolen an N. It gives my trivia an Italian air.

I pointed out how dark it was outside what with the street lights being turned off to save energy, making it a Black Friday.
Mrs P pointed out that we don’t have street lights but that it was indeed a Black Friday with or without them.
Is it me?

[lucido grigio]

I looked up addiction in Italian hoping it would be addizione or similar.

No ,translate came back with dipendenza.

Dependence or .....

addizione is addition ,as in sums n math.

Evening all

I am now a bona fide celebrity (at least by current standards)
I was at Harewood house with the mrs today, they were filming a bit about their christmas celebrations, we appeared for at least 3 seconds in the background of one shot. It was a tad blurry but it was definitely us lol

[lucido grigio]

GOG qualifies to get his picture placed on the wall of the great hall of fame of TT.

He is the first.

[DickyC]

Harewood House is nowhere near Tad Blurry.

[DickyC]

Oh good. At last we can take down the one of me badly hungover.

That was damaged and taken down when that dodgy ordnance went off a few months ago....

We temporarily put up a pic of Bernard Manning ,no one noticed.

Mostly you I'm afraid to say chap. You removed all the lamp posts when you were moving some 'apparatus' onto your property. I seem to recall you took a corner off the Post Office, demolished the neighbour's orangery and had a couple of petrol pumps off the Shell garage forecourt too.

Bugger. That accounts for the bleak wasteland around Pushfit Towers then
Thanks for clearing that up

[Bobberoo99]

It would indeed account for the majority of it, however the rest would be down to Bomma's exuberant use of ordnance!!!
Addizione?? Isn't that one of the Abarth editions?

When I get knighted I’ll be able to Knight GOG too. Probably. Because I’ll have the power to.

[Bobberoo99]

Can I be stuffed and mounted? I don't fancy being knighted!!

You'll need to have a word with the Duke first. He's a bit pee'd off that you ran over the flowerbeds.

Not too impressed you took the side out of his Daimler either. Maybe you could have a word with 'her'.
Or her sister at least. She still pops into the hangar for elevensies.

No need to apologise old chap, just that the Archdeacon insists on doing this on a Friday. God alone knows why, he'll have that light fitting down before long. It's anyone's guess where he'll land...
