The word has got about: assuidious recycling of drip tray contents, slops and leftover beer poured straight into the mild barrel.
They have stopped brewing mild round these here parts oop norf for over 2 years now. weeping

"Insufficient demand", apparently. Can't think why? I used to strain the fag ends out before tipping it back. angel

I used to love Wilsons' Mild drinkcloud9
It was almost as smooth and dark and creamy as Guinness, a really good fighting beer.

Unfortunately, long extinct now.

Never mind, as long as we've still got the Absinthe.
Although it does have a strange effect on me: every time I break wind, it sounds like a Japanese motorcycle.

They say that Absinthe makes the fart go Honda....

Assiduous? 'Clandestine' I would have gone for. Covert Ops. That sort of thing. The result is the same, mind.

The Ice House?
No, Obi Wan: I meant the windowless brick shed behind there, where Battert hangs his "game". yikes

Unfortunately I had to return to my post to alter a Trivial speeling erra.
It's sorted now.

Ice House? Wasn't that the name of an '80s band? No, hang on..... it was The Icicle Works, silly me. It's been that sort of day.

More tiffin required.

My son decided to buy a very small bottle of the worlds hottest chilli sauce!
He's cooking downstairs and I'm working upstairs in my office, he put just 3 tiny drops of the stuff on a chicken leg and cooked it in the oven, the fumes from the oven have dispersed around the home and Its making me sneeze upstairs!
Ridiculous!

So I’m bidding on a car on eBay, yesterday I was outbid by ‘b***o’ according to the semi-hidden eBay bidders list. I was the only other bidder. Earlier today I got a notification of the other bidder having pulled out, and now when I check there are two bidders again. The other is the same ‘b***o’ but now at £10 less than me.

A little bit of shill bidding going on I think....

Thing is, I do want the car - it’s at the right price at the moment. But that said, it should currently be £200 cheaper than it is!

The other bidder is the owner, I reckon. Back out and wait for it to be re-listed.

I just replied on it about a "well it be on to this" query.....laugh

How did the thread "Will this plate pass MOT ?" get to 170 posts ,when the correct answer was the first reply ?

Why am I asking so many questions ?

What day is it ?

You're asking so many questions Peri because you're an inquisitive fellow!!!

I have a question of my own, why does my Wi-Fi signal keep bouncing up and down despite the fact that I'm stationary?!?!?

Interesting factoid........

Schengen is the thingy that allows free travel without borders throughout the mainland EU.

It is also the name of a town in Luxembourg that is right on the border of Germany.....nerd

People are only really happy with Schengen in wet weather.

"I'm Schengen in the rain, just Schengen in the rain."

My step nephew in-law twice removed is on the Danny Dyer thing tonight. He makes a (not very good) living jousting.

You heard.

Jousting.
