Tell Us Something Really Trivial About Your Life (Vol 34)

[DickyC]

Today I will mostly be whistling early Beatles songs with a very slight but nonetheless attractive discordancy.

[DickyC]

Imagine whistling:

If I gave my love to yuuuu

with the yuuuu a bit flat.

[DickyC]

Actually, unless I'm very much mistaken, the Beatles sang it a bit flat.

[DickyC]

But, then, what do I know?

Four fifths of five eighths of fk all about almost everything.

Can you wait?
Wait just a minute Mr. Poster...

( Searches frantically for earplugs )

Ah! Here they are!

Carry on Dicky!

I got around to building my plastic shed yesterday. Looks like one of those porta loos at a motor racing venue.

You could clad it in wood!

You know! Like a wooden shed.

A bit softer to look at like.

It wood look good in would, wooden it?

A wood-clad plastic Portaloo.

Or you could do a brick-effect wrap. It's amazing what they can achieve these days. It would create the illusion of a proper outside cludgie.
Mind you, you'd need to cut up loads of squares of the Daily Sketch and Herald to hang from the nail on a piece of hairy binder twine.

Morning chaps
It appears to be a lovely day out there this morning here Dahn Sarf, we have a couple of bits to pick up and then we're off for a drive again today!!!!

Tune less Beatles song whistling, it could become a national sport you know!!!

[DickyC]

In the sixties my grandfather lectured my brother and me about the corrosive influence of The Beatles and their dreadful music. "There's no melody," he explained. Lecture delivered he strode off down the garden whistling When I'm Sixty Four.

Morning all.

Lovely day here at the Shropshire/Cheshire borders.

Going on the roof today to move the TV Ariel from one chimney to another.

I have my neighbour asking my if I’ll get the roofers to swap the chimney pots over. FFS!

I have coax but can’t find it.

The sad truth is, no one in this house watches TV anymore. I don’t. My wife doesn’t. Kids never have.

I can’t see TV surviving much past the next ten years, unless they change their model.

So that’s my day.

Roofers this week I think.

Perhaps he was talking in hindsight?

I’m bleeding desperate.

A smashing bloke he was but delightfully unworldly.

Gooday cobblers!

S&M, when are your roofers starting to strip off?

Don’t know, I’ll ask the wife. See when she has time for them.

[Magooagain]

It's midday and we've already been to E'penede' for Mavis walkies.

Now in the shade having a cuppa hiding from the relentless sun! Actually it's a dam beautiful day with a nice cooling breeze.

Yak I da!

S&M, Why on earth would you have an old transvestite motorbike on your chimney?

Oh, you mean aerial. Television aerial.
Gotcha.

Did you inadvertently cart that coax to the tip when you were having that clear out last month?
If not, it's bound to turn up sometime after you have given up searching and bought a new length.

Fingers crossed thIs nice weather holds for you.
And all of us.

ION, Mrs. Robbo has bought a big bag of dry dog food ( for hunting dogs, it says on the bag ). This is for our visiting young fox who comes up Boris's badger tunnel under the Troll bridge.

I said "Why didn't you buy him/her some Foxes Custard Creams?

She told me not to be so stupid.

So much for trying to make a useful suggestion.

[Bobberoo99]

We've been for our drive, after two attempts to buy the correct flourescent bulb for the bathroom, we're now sat at a local dish beauty spot having a cup of coffee and a couple of dark chocolate ginger biscuits!!!!

[Bobberoo99]

We're back home, a nice relaxing afternoon ahead, might read, might surf tinternet, might have a kip!!!!

But..... but.... but.... it would still sound like George Harrison. Even though John sang the intro bit.

Still haven't finished that bloody Lego Yellow Submarine....
