Er, that's it really. Nice weather today, don't you think?
nice weather here , too..now, about this sweetcorn, any ideas about how to take the kernels off ? ;D
Had to take my dog to the kennels last week..................oh sorry,you said kernals,silly me ;D
This is just Nuts. I'd like to holiday in Brazil
Can anyone advise me about wether to buy laminate or carpet
I'm a tile man myself. - But this doesn't help you - sorry.
I knew a tile man once he was called Fred and he only had one eye, did a good job of lining things up though, he always started a conversation with" nice weather today " too.(back on topic)
How about pineapple?
Did he say that when it was raining Jeannine? What's on telly tonight? Probably nothing. I'm going to show the TV licence inspector last years licence 'cos that's all they show.
OOps sorry! :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ Should have gone in edible plants .. or recipes? :o :o :o
What's the license for?
Exactly!
Oh I remember I bought on of those once. I think I should cancel it as my TV hasn't been turned on for 4 months since I moved it into my sewing room to watch videos on and it lost it's signal!!!
I prefer the radio myself or the computer where I can listen again to stuff I've missed. Anyone here listen to the radio while gardening?but that's done on a nice day generally.......on a good day like today!
CHILDREN! Enough is enough, I would not blame Dan if he puts you over his knee.
Now repeat after me.
I must not break the rules.
(unless you have a note from your mum)
Didn't somebody once say rules are meant to be broken, I broke my nose once!
Shan't ......stamps foot in temper... anyway good things come out of daft things. This prompted me to phone the number on the back of my Sky card and get the instructions for re booting my card which I have just done and we have the TV back. One of these days I will write it down!!

What's on telly tonight?
In the hotel Lorns'n'me stayed in last week there was a neat 'no smoking' notice on top of the tele in the lounge. And on the table beside it there was an ashtray.
House Rules very clear, then. You must NOT stand on top of the tele whilst smoking ;D
Well seeing as this is an off topic post.
This is true by the way.
We got a catalogue this morning from Premier Man .

Of course Trixie - no offence to anyone, least of all Georgie. Just a bit of fun and a place where we can release our tangential meanderings. Um.
Jeannine: I quite like a good solid green myself, in the right situation. I think as long as you avoid brown and yellow you'll be okay.

Dunno what it was, but where it was, now that's easy. In the loft, with me. Morning all.

As teenagers we figured it was some sort of particularly deviant sexual act.
I'm enjoying this thread - it's nice to let it all hang out from time to time.
Sunny out. Off to the park.
Did you know the Chinese invented spaghetti and chilli did not originate in Mexico.
and champagne was invented by the English. Unfortunately the French probably started cricket
I think we'd solve a lot of problems is the Government raised the age of puberty
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.

I burnt all my tomato plants today ???. For anyone about to do the same, when you pour the petrol over them, just notice the intense green colour the green bits go. It's amazing, like malachite
Mine are all going in the green bin for the council - won't be buying their compost. :)
it makes you think. All the good waste and grass and old compost goes in my compost bins for my compost. All the diseased or dodgy stuff goes in the green bins - for the council to make compost - to sell back to us
But have you seen how hot the council stuff gets?
Nice weather today. A good day for a skive methinks.
I have a rather irritating ant bite just below my left elbow,the same one that gets a bit of stiffness ,thats my elbow not another ant bite.
Do ants get `tennis elbow`? And what about spiders?-but they are legs so I suppose it would be `house maids knee`
Thread duly hijacked-thread/spiders?
....and back to Ealing. Did you know that Johnny Morris played the part of the parrot in the radio version of 'The Lady Killers'?
how interesting! Would be even more interesting if he'd played the parrot in the film :D
I used to live in Ealing, no parrots but plently of spiders - don't know how their knees were.
what was tennis elbow called before tennis was invented? or did it just baffle medical science?
I had water on the knee once so I said to the doctor - this is housemaid's knee right? He said No, you're a man, so you,ve got clergyman's knee. Those choirboys.....
And of course you know the cure.......drainpipe trousers. ;D
I was told the cure was a tap on the knee
Nah thats for water on the brain.
a tap on the knee cures water on the brain???? Show me your Medical Qualifications, I don't believe a word of it
I used to suffer from this a few years ago
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
I think it will be a while before I go back to church again :P
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I'm sure God had a smile. ;)
If he didn't, we did. ;D
Hey that woman goes to our church too SM. I try my best to make her smile... I definately do not put her on a door to welcome folk to church!!!! ;)
I wonder about deep and meaningful questions from my childhood-did Dan Dare ever conquer the Mekon? And did Desperate Dan get CJD from eating too many cow pies? After sewers were put in what happened to Dan Dan the lavatory man?-I`m in a Dan mode ;D
Dan Dan the Dreary man was a lovely old man from our church who was THE most boring speaker ever created!! All his passion was in his heart which was pure goldXX
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"
The Mekon is now the leader of the Liberal Democrats

Ming? I think you've got him quite wrong. He went to school with my husband who had a lot of time for him if not necessarily his politics.
(http://www.auction.de/highlights/images_90s/neu2005/32a-2375-1a.jpg)
Is this Ming ? Talkative when the wind blows the right way ;)
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
XX Jeannine
Did anyone here watch the Charlie Chan movies? I was fascinated by them at VERY early age!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Chan
And don't talk to me about Ming the merciless. He was a RIGHT git!
We use dilute Domestos. My son is allergic to Flash. ;D ;D
Dom-Estos! Saviour Of The universe!! doesn't have the same ring to it
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!!

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 ;)
Wonderful that he is askingXX
We used to say that he sent the thunder and lighning to rattle the clouds so they burst because the plants needed the rain

So, how is everyone? I have a bit of a fuzzy head today. And someone's drunk all my gin.
reading back over some of this thread ~ seems like a different world, and not in a particularly good way neither
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
Anyone going to a Panto this year?
you really should pick a better roll model for Brummies. Ever his family say he's a pain in the chocolate orange
How about Ozzy Osbourne, or Benny from Crossroads?
Which crossroads is that? Spaghetti junction ??? ??? ???
I knitted a spaghetti jumper once, after I picked it off a tree when it was ripe of course ::)
Money grows on trees too, perhaps it would be a good idea to plant in this economic situation.
Can you knit £10 notes? ??? ??? ??? ???
I loved Crossroads. My favourite bit was when a magician stayed at the motel and levitated Miss Diane, and then scarpered, leaving her stiff as a board suspended on the back of a chair, and they coudn't undo the spell ;D ;D

In this economic climate... do you think if I went to the market I could exchange all my bean seeds for a couple of cows...? ;D
There were a couple of them milling around the Wilton market this morning. Not content to run down their neighbours, they then started on the market stall holders. Both big bullies.
How do you know they were bullies ??? ??? ??? ???
'Cos they were threatening everyone with their unbrellas! ;D ;D
cows with umbrellas??
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. I think it's a shame really. I look forward to being woken up and cheered up in a howling gale at 3 o'clock in the morning
I think drivers are getting more aggressive >:( >:( >:(

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.

Blemonge works if you're stuck mid-poem... and lozenge.
what a rubbish poem that would be, and it doesn't rhyme!
I speak with authority. I read a book once

orange is a nice word. In english it started out as a norange (or similar) and then became an orange
I think the same thing happened with "horse" ;D (listen to John Otway singing -"ridin an a ridin an a ridin an a ridin on an orse"
There was a young man with big oranges,
And everyone called him a toff
So he put them all into zome lozenges
And they cleared up his chest and his cough...
I asked that nice man Mr Gorringe
why is Dale Winton orange?
He said - he don't look quite right
Too much Sunny Delight
or sun-bathing nude on the Blorenge

On doctor's strict orders I strove
To eat garlic each hour by the clove.
He said, 'Good for the heart.'
Well, it just made me fart. :o :-[ :o
But it saved on the gas for my stove
Was the fruit named after the colour or the colour after the fruit. :-\

Did you hear they've had to censor the lyrics of "house of Fun"??
IT'S MADNESS GONE POLITICALLY CORRECT!!
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."
::)
Here we go again, zinc! Aphrodisiac. Takes us back to the "sex" thread!

Sexy threads = sweatshirts and jeans.
talking about jeans, does my bum look big in these.

You took a wrong turning, Flunky. It's the next left after the traffic lights, k?
(http://www.352media.com/rantingandraving/CMFiles/Images/traffic_lights.jpg)
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
I thought they turn up one day a week so they can strike?
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
i didn't know banks have holidays mine must be on a permanent one as it is no longer there

Why hasn't anybody mentioned that Reg Varney has just died, poor chap. 92. 92!!
Star of On The Buses, and the first person in the world to use a Cash Point Machine
Well, somebody had to be the first, I'm rather glad it was him.
you mean first to use a cashpoint machine!I thought for a moment you meant first to die :o
Of course, lots of people died before he did - in fact, who WAS the first person to die?
interesting question (with no funny answers), but the really important question is ~ did anyone just see the most nauseating advert for Sainsburys? Jamie Oliver.......and Ant......and Dec. Oh my God. All the Christmas Decs (and Ants) up too. We're all going to have to pull together, if we're going to get through this difficult time...........
Is Christmas next week? :o We seem to have a lot of adverts for it at the moment and yet I haven't even ordered a turkey yet or bought any sprouts. I don't want to miss it you know!!
Don't think so, Pauline, I think it's Easter, they're selling hot cross buns in Sainsburys ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
Sorting throigh stuff to pack, I found a jockstrap and don't know what to do with itXX Jeannine

Hey Kev. You gotta fancy dress this Christmas. Problem solved
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
Another song Where ever (yugo ) i go
I'm dressing up as an elf for our clubs kids Christmas party, but I got a few ideas so save us the jocky Jeannine. Does any one know where Reg Varney used the first hole in the wall. :-\ ;D ;D ;D

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.

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.

"Stir up Sunday"? Just a figment of The Archers imagination, I believe! For me it's Miserable Monday, a regular event held each week...
