It's astonishing some of the stuff that folks throw out, one chap getting rid of a lovely looking wardrobe.
Might have had woodworm I suppose, the wardrobe looked ok though.
My neighbour has rising damp that’s caused a nasty outbreak of wet rot if that’s helps. As they know my trade he keeps wanting me to have a look. Euughh! Worse still is the last the other side keeps wanting to show me her damp patch but that’s another story.
Terrible goings on, it might help to put them off if you mention your regular visits to the Secure Units.

The chap I saw certainly looked quite pale, he was limping a bit too. Shame really, if it was woodworm perhaps a good brushing with something like Cuprinol Gold may have helped.

There was a rousing song I was told once, the lyrics of which contained: 'peeping through the knothole in Daddy's wooden leg' .

Cant remember the rest

Sorry

I drove through Brimpton today. The locals are up in arms about a proposal for a gravel pit. Their protest banners read RAGE - Residents Against Gravel Extraction. I wonder what the banners would read if the residents of the Watch Thread realised their tormentors were all from the Trivial Thread. Residents Against Trivia.

All I can say is the palindrome for Bolton is Notlob.

That’s literally all I can say.

If there was a palindrome, was there a jonesdrome and an idledrome as well? Possibly more.

Anyone smell Gas? I tried it once but got told by the Garage to take the nozzle out of my nose and replace it back in the pump!

Not forgetting the Gilliam one of course.
In fact, Gilliam is almost an anagram of Milligan, all that's missing is an 'n'.
If we had 'madman', we could pinch the n from that which would leave us with an anagram of 'madam',
another good palindrome.
So's 'racecar' incidentally. And 'kayak'.

Anyone tried these Electric charge points?
I gave it a go the other day and found it made no difference at all, Just noticed the lights were a bit brighter!

I don't think you can charge a house that way, but given you used the Dodge I can understand how the lights would be brighter

Now, you see I can understand where you went wrong, I just can't work out how to put it into words!!!! I am, however, fairly confident that if I tried that with the Rover, there'd be a blinding flash followed by an acrid burning smell and no more Rover!!!

I was looking at the specifications for Dodge Vipers a while back, quite astonishing. Never mind a house, I reckon you could run a good bit of the National Grid off of one of those buggers.

Anyhow, off to Bedford soon to collect a gearbox for an old friend of mine. I might have a look in the Go Outdoors shop over there, I quite enjoy having a mooch around those places.
I'll probably return home with something I don't really need but there we go.
