Oops! Sorry, I don't know what went wrong there!

I blame the lax security of the headless Border Farce.

I think it's called "coupe de grass" over there in Station F, Magoo...

The final cut of the season.

As I'm a newbie and it's volume 41, is there a brief resume of the rules available?

Edited by Veteran63 on Saturday 14th September 11:10
Rules?
We don't need no stinking rules!



IOTN - apparently, the drunk who kicked off at SD#2's wedding Thursday is in a bit of a pickle, her fella hasn't spoken one word to her since then and he got my SD and her husband together ten years ago. Because of her, he had to miss out on the fun at his mates wedding and is absolutely mortified that she created such a scene, the groomsmen had to help escort her out.

It didn't end there either apparently, she was weaving up and down the car park offering anyone and everyone a fight.

Weddings eh? hehe

Oh and my BIL, we think, pulled a fast one and didn't attend. He says they broke down and as they only have recovery, they had to head home and it was some fantastical story that doesn't ring true with the pictures he posted online to substantiate his story.

SD#2 has started posting her pictures online of their big day so now BIL, has started re posting his wedding pictures in an effort to upstage them. The issue there is, his wedding cost about £9k and was at some pokey hole in Essexland whereas theirs cost £30k and was at a fancy country house hotel in the countryside near Preston.

I know which one was better but you can't tell him and it's going to cause family ructions because if he pisses SD#2 off, then his sister - my wife - will be pissed off and then i cop it in the neck which means he will get a flea in his ear.

Well, well, well. I could feel it coming so I got the old hang glider out, dusted it down, removed the Virgin Media goat stickers and launched off the ravine to find myself here in the new Volume. At last one that goes up to 11.

Good to see General Banter hanging proudly in the large dining hall.

Well what we waiting for let’s get stuck in.

Well helloooo there!!! wavey

One minute we were pootling along the A9 and the next we're in Volume 41!!!?

I say, it's quite posh in here isn't it?!? Just watch out for the door frames, the paint's still wet, or so I just found out!!!! grumpy

Currently sat in the worlds narrowest hotel, The Star in Moffat, we've been here before and think it's a great little place, plus you get a good sandwich with tortilla chips and salad for £8.95!!!

IOTN:
For clarification and just by way of informing any newbies to this thread, IOTN is a acronym that stands for Truth & Justice "In Other Trivial News".

It certainly does NOT mean, despite what Our Lord and Master Scrump may or may not proclaim, "I only torture newbies". No Siree. nono

Ignore any shrieks, screams or anguished cries that you may hear emanating from the Scrungeon.

When he returns from Sconnie Botland, Bobbers will no doubt be reinstating the Initiation Courses for those that have recently joined us.
He may even run a Special Introductory Discount Offer promotion, which I can assure you will be great value at half the price.
Have no fear, the process is almost entirely pain-free.
Unless you struggle.
Remember to bring your towel.

Now then, whose round is it? I'll have a large one please, and a small Absinthe chaser, no milk and just one sugar.

Is this a good time to issue a new version of the code book?

Well done, Hammo. That was a really good landing considering the crosswind. clap
Great to see that you haven't lost the knack.

Sorry to disappoint, but that's not General Banter hanging there, it's just his portrait.

Somebody complained. rolleyes
