Tell Us Something Really Trivial About Your Life (Vol 31)

[glenrobbo]

And imagine the complications surrounding posthumus award ceremonies: all those grieving relatives and cucumber sandwiches to take care of.

I like that word, Posthumous, has a certain sound to it, like Monumental, I like that one too!!!!!

[glenrobbo]

Post-hummous?

[glenrobbo]

As Dicky said ( or was it Peri or Nonsequential? Or Fatboy or Nij? ): "Taramasalata".

[Bobberoo99]

Yeah you know, after yer hummus has been eaten!!

Christmas is nearly over. To be complete it has to include Mary Poppins, Bullitt and 2001. On the telly, not on DVD or watch now or anything, that would be cheating. Just 2001 to go.

.

I meant to record Bullitt last night, but was otherwise engaged. Talking of which, when in San Francisco some time ago, I did a solo Bullitt location tour.
The apartment, the grocery store, the church, the hotel and Enricos coffee bar. Definitely in my top ten films of all time.(Steve McQueen)

ION, Against all the doctors's's advice, ( only kidding ) I have made plans for tomorrow:

I am taking my daughter and Robbopoppetlet to the RAF Museum to show them around and also to watch the flypast of three ( 3 ) of Bomma's Tonkas at 13:29hrs.
They are doing a three-day farewell tour of the UK. Subject to serviceability and favourable weather conditions of course.

They have done us proud for the past 40 years. 40 years!!!
I remember they used to be called the "MRCA", which sounds like something dodgy you'd contract in hospital. Or in a bordello in Akrotiri.

Either way, it's something to ponder as they pass overhead. Noisy bds!

My hair is the longest it's been in over 30 years!

People are talking!

Okay if I enter that in the Longest Sentence Competition?

I thought mine was a lot longer than Bobbers'? ( I had to insert a breathing space in yesterday's effort. )

There, now. Don't take on so. All entries are being considered even as we speak with marks awarded for length, content, grammatical correctness and mention of any lady members of the Keep Trivton in the Comfort and Safety of the Past Society.

Ah! Waldo, me boy!

I have bought a comb-over for my bro-in law for his birthday in June. And a book about the mid-life crisis.

The only problem that I can forsee is that I will probably forget I have bought them.
And if I remember that I have, I won't have a clue where I put them.

You should trim down there every so often.

Especially when it gets longer than your kilt.

What a thoughtful present! I think all men should try a combover at least once in their lives. Because if you don't try, you won't know, will you?

He's got the look of a man who's comfortable in himself.

I am overdue a short back and shoulders myself.

Here you go chap: I've mixed you a nice drop of honey & garlic. We'll soon have you right as rain fit as a fiddle coughing up less blood.

Nursie here will rub some Vick on your chest whilst I administer the steam treatment with this wallpaper stripper/ steamer thingy.
The vapour is supposed to be good for you.

Then Matron will administer a special enema.
Just because she enjoys that sort of thing.
If nothing else, it will soon have you up and running.

I think I was five last time I wore a kilt with smarties in ma sporon. As far as the trimming goes there's no need as it seems to fall out on its own.

Mind you! It's all the same colour now.

It's ok thanks glenrobbo I appear to walked off whatever seriously debilitating/possibly terminal minor ailment was afflicting me!!

It's funny you should mention the whole hair length thing magoo, I work with a chap I first worked with when I was 16, he reminded me the other day that when we first knew each other I had collar length curly dark blonde hair, I'm now more dark brown, receding and going grey!!!
