Oh bugger! rolleyes

In other news, I still haven't used those Jaws of Life to make a start on trimming my toenails.

I thought I'd make a start on them on the 14th, and just attend to one toe per day, so it works like a sort of podietary advent calendar..

I have done my sums, and starting on the 14th allows me a couple of days to deal with my troublesome left big toenail.

Of course I won't be eating each daily treat: nono
It's not chocolate.
I shall save the clippings and pass them onto Battert for use in the new improved "Lasser8"©® :barbed wire that he is manufacturing in the barn.

I’ve done two posts but not posted them so it’s quite hectic on TT here. ‘Save Bobbers’ isn’t a viable suggestion and neither is using Glenners' spare clippings as media for blast cleaning the Belfast hull.

A TRIVIA SHORTAGE?!?!?! yikes

Don't start rumours like that glenrobbo!!!
I've only just woken up and the first thing I read is that there's a Trivia shortage!!! frown

Another busy day of imbecile dodging awaits me, interspersed with getting the new(old) Rioja blue Focus cleaned all ready for Sunday, lunch out and a visit to see Mrs Bobbers nan who is unfortunately back in hospital again!! frown
All finished off with a meal out with my mum tonight which may or may not be an enjoyable experience!! frown

Morning all. I've had a couple of ciggies, answered a call of nature, had a shower, got up, had some tea and a bowl of Frosties, had a piss, emptied the kitchen bin and brushed my teeth, not necessarily in that order.
Futtette has followed a broadly similar format save for the kitchen bin and Frosties, she's had Rice Krispies.

No doubt at some point we'll have a bit of lunch and later some dinner, I'll update as things progress.

I'm glad you clarified that it wasn't in order Bomma, it did leave me wondering if it was wise to shower in bed, or if you were talking about the other sort of bed based shower?!?!?

You had to mention that futtin word didnt you grumpy

Those train stories are fantastic, i bet the engine going bang made quite the noise. I’ve been quite close to a big v8 when it had a nitrous burp, that was fun. Compressor stalls can be fun too. Once had to get off a big turbo engined motorbike quite quickly when the crank let go, that got the heart rate up a touch but my favourite engine calamity involved an aquaintance who had a skyline r33 with big horsepower - he estimated it had about 750bhp but that was his opinion - who wanted to show me how it went after its latest engine upgrade.
So off we went, warmed it all up nicely, checked traffic and relatively free, turned onto a local road that is wide and straight and floored it. Christ it was fast yikes up into third, foot hard down and suddenly the power dips followed by a very loud bang, the bonnet distorting and lots of plinkle plinkle noises. That fair made me jump and him look like he was about to cry bit ultimately i bet it was nowhere near as loud as that train engine venting the crankcase.

Bobbers, I think you must secretly enjoy imbecile dodging, otherwise you'd limit your shopping expeditions to 7:30 pm on a Tuesday, when most imbeciles are sat at home watching some idiotic soap or other on their gogglebox.

The car parks have plenty of parking spaces, you get the freshest produce just being loaded onto the shelves ready for the next day, and the aisles aren't obstructed by ditherers or their trolleys, and there's no big queues at the checkouts.
Win win win win! smile

Works for me. wink

No, it was something Pushfit mentioned earlier old chap. In fact he mentioned something a couple of days ago about Mrs P's interest (or lack of) in TT, Futtette's a follower of the goings on and we've been searching for a video which TT has reminded her of.

I'll report back later if we have any luck finding it.

My baby sister had suggested I save my toenail clippings to make an art installation, because apparently somebody has just paid £90,000 for a Banana taped to a Wall:

My bed is wherever I imagine it to be, young Bobbers.
Such is the power of my thoughts. Just moments ago, it was here:



You have much to learn, young Arsegroper Grasshopper. wink

Another view of the Grim Industrialized North, complete with rural degradation and encroachment from the fast expanding cities. Must be dreadful.
