My junk mail has suddenly got itself organised. It's now just expensive holidays, retirement homes and funeral cover.

Thanks.

Thanks a bunch.

Why is it that I read that and immediately heard Julie Andrews singing "These are just a few of my favourite things" in my head?!?!?

Am I the only person sat here wondering just what the fk this useless bunch of moronic halfwit tts know as MP's think they're playing at? We voted to leave the EU, get the fk over it and do our bidding, because at the end of the day that's what you're employed to do, we voted you bunch of idiots in to do our bidding, not fight amongst yourselves trying inflict YOUR will on us and everyone else!!!!

About 52% of the Kingdom are wondering the same thing Bobbers.

Wot, no free Parker pen...?


Tonight's little sortie from Bescot Up Yard Sorting Sidings to Oxford under cover of darkness will be accompanied by four cups of tea, some leftover chocolate from Christmas that the Mrs doesn't like and a vague hope that I've got the map the right way up.

Tally ho, what.

They probably just hit them with branches like Fawlty.

.....having long forgotten it’s the key for starting.

I have applied for membership of their mobility scooter club.

No harm in getting on the waiting list...

No no no!!! You don't want the wind on your back for take-off or landing! Think of your airspeed, man. Concentrate!

I was at the funeral of an ex- guardsman who had passed after a long debilitating illness, and during the ceremony my phone buzzed in my pocket a couple of times ( I had respectfully switched it to 'silent' before entering the chapel ).

I checked it after the ceremony and was flabbergasted to see a text message asking me to find out what was going to happen with the deceased's mobility scooter, as the person sending me this text could do with it if the relatives wanted to offload it for free.
WTAF???
I am not kidding, this actually happened.

Appalling behaviour!

Funny old thing death. Brings out the worst.

My in-laws furniture has colour coded labels so everyone knows what they’re getting - much hilarity has ensued over surreptitious label swapping but a least it’s sorted.

Thought so

You may have heard of that 'Dignitas' clinic place in Switzerland, but I bet you don't know what they serve for breakfast...


Cheerios!

[Pericoloso]

I just got back from there,wouldn't let me in....

[glenrobbo]

Never mind, Peri.
Come and join us at the Bell & Leper, Frank's having a lock-in.

First one since yesterday.

[Pericoloso]

I was in there earlier, soup of the day was pigeon and cabbage with croutons.

No nom.

No, you silly boy, you should have come round to the back room.
We were enjoying today's special entrée: Wild Ortolan poached in absinthe: they really were absolutely sublime.

[Pericoloso]

Same as above,wouldn't let me in......

My dear Peri.
You surprise me.

You are familiar with the "Special Knock" and Handshake, aren't you?

Just follow those procedures and say "Aunt Nellie sent me to pick up her aspidistra" and you'll be admitted straight away.

Fell asleep in front of the telly last night at twenty past nine, Mrs Bobbers packed me off to bed!!!
