I want to complain about one of God's inventions,with respect.

Dear God, I appreciate all the wonderful things you created,but I do think you blew it with the sleep thing.

This is the only complaint I have for you.

As it stands at the moment we need to sleep so our bodies can recharge,but if our bodies did not need to do this then we would not need to sleep.

Think of all the positives that would come about of we did not need to rest.

1. No beds, therefore all our personal rooms would be more interesting and have more space.

2.At the moment we work 8 hours,sleep 8 hours and play 8 hours... well my playtime involves cooking and cleaning after work so my play is less.If I didn't need to sleep think of the endless fun things I could do with that extra 8 hours.

3.Businesses could operate on a 24 hour basis if they wished.

4. We might cut down on waiting time for NHS procedures which would be good.

There are contless other possibilities too, but you get my drift.

There are negatives too,but the only one I can think of it that Snowhite would not have got kissed by a prince.

Thank you again for all your great stuff.

Last week I took budding Monty, aged 2yrs to church with me,
about half way through the service he started with the 'what's that ?'
questions.
    He eventually got bored with light fittings and counting spiders webs and in the loudest voice possible, at the longest lull in the service ever, asked
" IS THAT MAN SLEEPING ?" pointing to the man right next to me.
         The poor sod sat bolt upright, while the entire congregation turned to see who my innocent wee monster was talking about ;D ;D ;D
        By this time the mans wife looked at me with a face on her like a bulldog chewing a wasp ;D ;D ;D

Desperate Dan opened a vegetarian restaurant in Hove with his partner, the late Larry Grayson. He choked to death on a piece of tofu in 1989

Dan Dare couldn't stand the celebrity of being famous. He is now hiding in a hole in Africa, hoping that no-one will see him.................

Daniel Dan (the lavatory man) came to a sticky end in "Carry on Screaming"

MING..don't talk to me about Ming..he is Merciless.

He is responsible for the floods and hurricanes you know cos he has a nitron lamp on Mars that extracts the nitron from the Earth's atmosphere and that is causing the problems we are all  having now.

It's true,I know cos I have a film about it. He has done it before and Flash Gordon had to go off with his friend Dr.Zarkov to sort him out.

They found him in his throne room messing with his thing and they blew it up.

Golly Gee, perhaps we need to get Flash back again but I suspect he is dead or at least in an oldies home. Not Ming though cos he is immortal.

Really scary stuff!!

Does anyone know where to find a  good substitute for Flash

I liked the original Flash with Larry Buster Crabbe at saturday morning cinema. The main feature was usually some Children's Film Foundation rubbish with those annoying kids from The Doubledeckers

Twice this has come up in as many weeks so we are all set to watch the whole Buster Crabbe series tonight.I don't know how far we will get as I usually turn it off...John  still has fantasies about Dale Arden and I can't be doing with the competition these days!!

Number 1. 1936, 13 chapters, Spaceship to the Unknown.

Just in from work , so only now getting back to this thread.

Regarding budding Monty's church escapades,
I have been told by everyone i meet that the entire congregation all noticed that poor sod sleeping every week in church, up until now they were all too polite to say anything ;D ;D ;D
  Apparently he hasn't done it since ;D ;D ;D

Cleo, deep and meaningful questions from childhood ?

Budding Titchmarch asked me the other day "who is God?
I said...God created everything and everybody.

Budding.....where does he live?
Me..........In heaven

Budding ......where's heaven?
Me....... up in the sky above the clouds

Budding......Is God a boy or a girl?
Me .... A boy (I think  ???)

Budding....Is he a good boy or a bad boy?
Me........a good boy

Budding.....does he have lots of toys in his house?
Me......probably

Budding.....does he have a chimney in his house?
Me......I think so

Budding ......Does Santa leave him lots of toys at Christmas for being good?
Me......I would say he does, why are you asking all these questions about God?

Budding.....because when it was thundering and lightning, you said that I shouldn't be scared because it was only God moving his furnature, and Budding Monty asked me why God was moving his furnature and I said it was to make room in his bedroom for all the new toys that Santa was going to bring him at Christmas. I was right ,wasn't I?

Me.... :P  That's right darling ;D ;D ;D

What have I started ;D ;D ;D
What an imagination ;D ;D ;D

He is only 4 ;)

has anyone else thought that the mix on I'm a Celeb this year is just too toxic? best hope is that Robert Kilroy Silk goes a REALLY funny colour under the Australian sun, and immigration won't let him back in the country. And where's the compulsory loveable gay person?

Hey Ol, fer yer fuzzy head - that's caused by static, use a conditioner after yer shampoo 8) Alternatively you could try gettin off your puter & movin about a bit ;D

Now you're not allowed to knock Kilroy Silk, RT..he's Ower Very Own Home-Grown Celebrity in Brum and you'll upset peeps (even if he IS orange)  Old Ladies of all ages lurve him - me, I'm eternally young :P

Do you think people in general are more grumpy at the moment? Pensions or shares becoming worth less & less, rising unemployment, 2 cr@p summers in a row, war weariness and loads more... maybe that's why there appears to be a bit less patience/more winding upness?

That's why I resurrected this, so we can look for the love we used to know.

you may be right - next door have just taken down their Wind Charms, probably because they think that their jolly little tinklings are not really appropriate in these difficult times.

that's OK but for the real connosewer of Mr Cash's oovruh it's got to be "Beans for Breakfast Once Again". Cracks me up every time  ;D ;D

I couldn't hear you for the TV, I didn't know you said goodbye
I saw your cancelled check for the airfare, didn't know flyin' got too high
Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can.

I've run out of clean utensils, I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
I heard the crows outside my window, guess it's me they're talkin' about
The fire you lit has burnt to cinders, every good things fizzled out
Beans for beakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can.

Wish you'd come back and wash the dishes, I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
Caught a cold with the window open, crow droppings o my window sill
Probably got histoplasmosis, got no gun or I would kill them crows
Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can.

Plastic forks are a dime a dozen I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
Finally made it to the mailbox, felt so bad I thought I'd die
All I got was a bill from my doctor, well I guess flyin' ain't so high
Bean for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can.

Blue tick mattress cold and greasy, I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
The house burned down from the fire that I built, in your closet by mistake
After I took all them pills, but I got out safe in my duck head overalls
Beans for breakfast once again, I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man.

Our community PC (read that as bobbie on a bike when PC's were coppers and enitrely not PC if you catch my drift) was whistling "one step beyond" the other day.

Restored my confidence i may be getting older the PCs may be getting younger but we still whistle the same tunes!

Er....the weather was nice!  8)

Talking of coppers, my Nan had a copper which she used to do her washing in.  She used to drag the articles out with a pair of wooden tongs and feed them into her mangle.  I'm not sure how she managed to rinse them.  Perhaps she put them in the kitchen sink after they had been through the mangle, rinse them and then put them back through the mangle again.  I was just a little girl at the time and my memory of exactly how she did it is a little hazy.   ;D

Speaking of mangling and rinsing, sometimes English gets
 mangled around here and I've heard "rinse" pronounced "wrench."
"She wrenched her clothes in the zinc."

the French don't have their own word for the weekend. They say "le weekend". Why not? because for the French - EVERY DAY'S A WEEKEND

is it not the case that the French have their Bank holidays (dozens of em) in the middle of the week instead of Monday or Friday, so they can then skive of til le weekend? "Faire le pont" I believe they call it

Today is a sad day ~ on the 20th of November the last YUGO rolls off the production line (not much hope of driving it off). Serbia's Finest Contribution To Public Transport

my first car was a Yugo. 16 valve, but 15 were in the radio. You could get 90 mph out of it, but it was a bit like the exciting bit at the end of the film "The Sound Barrier"
Every procedure in the Haynes Manual had a step that went "using a specially designed tool....." which was always a coathanger with several bends and a loop in the end ;D

someone came up to me in a car park and said - i've just bought one for my daughter, what's it like?  ;D ;D ;D well he did ask

The world's first ATM cash dispenser was installed on June 27th 1967 at Barclay's Bank in Church Street, Enfield in England. It was opened by Reg Varney.

When's Stir-Up Sunday btw ;) ;D

If memory serves me, and it's getting a bit dodgy these days, it's something to do with the Collect for the last Sunday before Advent.  The first words are 'Stir up', and it was the traditional Sunday to make your Christmas puddings and mincemeat.

With regard to the sprouts, I should think they should have been simmering for quite a while now, especially if they are to be ready for Christmas Day.
