And so it was that he took up mugging as a diversion. I entreat the court to view his case with leniency.

[DickyC]

If that leniency could also be extended towards the elderly gentleman seen throwing as yet unidentified objects from the top of the old water tower at Trivton Towers I would be grateful. The suspect is still at large.

If it pleases the court I urge them to disregard the call for leniency, he's obviously a wrongun, a scallywag, a neerdowell, a deviant, a..................
Hang on a minute, that's me we're talking about isn't it?? Oh balls!!!!!!

I know he's still at large and tossing them about randomly, there's three of the buggers stuck to the side of my M/C!!!

The axis of evil?

Dicky, thanks for the heads up re the failed / diverted non-delivery of fridge magnets/ cigarette cards to the NW.

I shall head on down to Trivborough and check all the unsuspecting owners of recycled VX-4/90s and Austin Somersets for signs of latent magnetism and TTFM residue.

Pity really, because I was rather hoping to be celebrating the arrival of my 8th Anniversary Special Limited Edition TT Fridge Magnet(s) by dancing naked in the rain to celebrate the end of the drought and how wonderful life is, even if it is a little bit funny.

I really must iron my pink onesie, it's looking very creased.

I really, REALLY, want a picture of you in your pink onesie, not for any strange, homographic reasons, more the fact I think it may be something I too could wear!!!!

Very strange how homographic is not only a word but not censored!!

Unlike Shorpe.

I’d really like to know who put the in Shorpe!

I also have a great, IMO, geography based Crossword clue from this part of the world (Yorkshire)

Clue being. A lady’s Porcine product past it’s best.

Answers on a postcard chaps!

In regard this magnet business. Put that fking Pelican to work, he can fly so give him the coordinates of our locations & Robert will be your Mothers Brother!

Do you really want him knowing where you can be found?? Are you mad????

[anonymous-user]

Would have been interested in some of Fred’s stuff if I’d known although most of it would be steam stuff.

I have just been clearing a path about 40m long through six foot nettles and saplings and a few bushes so the scaffolders can get to the back of the garage next week.

Cold drinks check
Chainsaw check
Lopper check
Scythe check
Bow saw check

However

I started in shorts and I don’t do changing once I’ve started something so my legs are now so badly stung they are completely numb, swollen and look like something that’s an example of what not to do out of a ‘wear appropriate protection for the job’ Ministry Of Advice film from 1955.

My dear Bobbers,

Much as I would love to satiate your strange craving, I regret that before you can have a glimpse of me in my pink onesie, first you would have to apply for consideration to be allowed to join and if successful you would have to undergo the Initiation Ceremony to become a member of the S Club Gentlemen's Touring Section, and swear solemn oaths whilst prostrated before the commitee.
I can't go into specific detail on a public forum, but suffice to say we have to impose strict criterIa in considering fresh applications.

I'm afraid you are still too young at present, but in 10 years or so, you may get lucky.

Sorry young man.

Denied!!!! Oh the humiliation, the ridicule, the demoralisation, how will I ever face Mrs Bobbers knowing I am a failure?!?!?

Is it a burnt-out GT3 Carrera in Beverley?


Or Sowerby?

Obviously Wetwang doesn't come into it...

Calm down Bobbers! Get a grip Man!

You are not a failure, you are simply too young...


And you need to practise stiffening up your upper lip.

Yes, yes of course you are correct, now then where's the superglue and my 6" steel rule, that should do the trick!!!!

[CubanPete]

I am in the doghouse.

Sent to the supermarket(s) with a list this morning. Apparently I was only supposed to get the bits she wanted, not the whole list....

[DickyC]

My neighbour - not the Bible basher, the hi-viz to put the bins out man - has named one of his pets Richard. Said pet is naughty and tries to run away.

"Richard! Richard!"
"Yes, Clive?"
"Not you, Richard. My Richard."
"Okay, Clive."

Little does he know I can keep it running for years.

"Richard! Richard!"
"Yes, Clive?"

Afternoon all.

Norfolk is doing us proud, the black cloud was give the slip around the Thetford area and I haven't seen the bugger since. Thank the Lord.

The fridge magnet business is causing some consternation though, our fridge is one of those built in things so the magnet won't adhere to it naturally. I thought of bolting a sheet of steel chequer plate to it, Mrs B reckons a bit of blu tac might be more aesthetically pleasing.

Any thoughts?

[Pericoloso]

Hello............is it me you're looking for ?

Anyhoo 5 days of quiet are over.

Been doing stuff.

now back to "normal"
