Hugh Jarse was a "comedy" name we used to wind a colleague up when I worked in xray. Mr Jarse was booked for a Barium Enema.
We also had Arthur Itis and Theresa Green on the list that day

Two cousins I used to know whose names themselves weren't funny, unless the initial of the first name and full surname were used in conjunction...

Not too often was it deployed to think much of. Until one week they decided to join a five-a-side team at the leisure centre where their names were used as such in public on a big notice board for cross-county tournaments and the like.

B. Hole.
A. Hole.

Good job there was just the two of them then.

I'm trying to convince Mrs Bobbers to get a dog, even her boss said that she could take it into work rather than leave it at home, she's still resisting!!!!

So i was watching various videos of some channels i follow on youtube. one video showed them 'shotgun' ing beer. never done it before so i decided to give it a go.

hold the can (has to be a can) flat/horizontal. pierce a hole in the bottom opposite end of the can to the lid. put your mouth over it. lift it up vertically and simultanously open the can at the cap/lid while sucking from the bottom.

fk me. i drank the entire can in under 5seconds. it's much easier than trying to down a pint the traditional way (by having it in a glass) and it feels less bloating. wish i knew how to down pints the normal way, ive tried but i'm kack.

this is an eye opener.

Ok, why on earth would you want to drink a can of beer that quickly???? Surely it's far more civilised to pour it into a glass and sit and savour it?!?!

Like mount everest..'because it's there'.

I've been doing that for mahy years and drinking the normal way. i just wanted to give it a go. I can instantly see it's appeal though. It's less bloating on the stomach than it is to drink the traditional way, so great for youngsters or alkies who want to get that buzz quickly but find obtaining it via beer rather tricky.

quite tempted to give it a go with special brew one day. historically in the past 3...4 cans at a push would satisfy me an entire evening (6ish to midnight or longer).

I like that, an honest answer!!! I moved over to ales for more taste and less bloating, I was drinking Peroni at a works do Saturday night, about 6 pints in and felt very bloated doesn't happen with the ales!!!

ION after having the Focus valeted yesterday I'm feeling sorry for the Rover, so providing it's not pissing down when I get home today I'm going to treat it to a wash and a vacuum!!!!

The shotgun beer thing - yes it was a big thing with us back in the late 80’s at parties and it’s astonishingly quick.

Trapped wind was the main drawback. That and trying it with cans of wine which was termed doing a ‘Goodnight Vienna’

The entire can in under 5 seconds? I wonder if that would work with "Surströmming"?

Back from Germany
Christmas Markets and Beer
Even had Snow too

I've just had a malt loaf bar. It's malt loaf but marketed like a chocolate bar; about Milky Way size. However, I went against how the manufacturers imagined it would be eaten by cutting it in half and putting butter on it. Philistine. They claim their product is "Full of Squidgy Goodness." They are squidgy.

Blowing a gale and chucking it down with rain here. Mum was sitting in the kitchen complaining it was cold in her room. I went to check. Her bedroom is on the ground floor; it used to be the sitting room. She'd forgotten she'd opened the French door. I'll mop it up presently.

[Bobberoo99]

I do like a nice bit of malt loaf spread with butter/Flora Pro-active/I can't believe it's not utterlybuttery margarine butter substitute, YUM!!!!!

[DickyC]

Butter, Bobbers, butter.

But, er, what about the other stuff?

It's a catch penny, Bobbers. Kick it out. Butter is the key.

I would much prefer butter Dicky, but my cholesterol was starting to creep over 5 so we've switched to Flora Pro-Activ!!
Still have butter on me crumpets though, sacrilege to have anything else!!!
