It's broken already.
Didn't last long - where was it made?

Engine Serang 24th February 2020 06:37

Mine was made in Glasgow, from girders and I'm welding patches on it twice a week. If Bob could post his witticisms between Monday to Friday it would keep the overtime costs down. Quality counts, more Frankie Boyle and less Julian Clary would cause less FSD's and bent pointers.
PS Delete "Bent" and insert "Damaged".

An old seaman is up in court charged with several counts of rape, sexual assault, lewd behaviour and drunkenness. The usher asks how do you plead and only receives a slight croak in reply. "Speak up man" shouts the judge. "Your honour my client has a very bad case of laryngitis and has lost his voice"... "well would he like to suck on a Fisherman's Friend?" enquires the judge to which the barrister replies "Do you not think he is in enough trouble as it is?"

An old seaman was in a restaurant when the waitress asked what he would like. "I'd love a quickie" he said and received a hard slap across the face. "Now what do you really want" asked the waitress "I said I'd love a quickie" to which he received and even harder slap. Deciding to give him one last chance she said "for the last time what would you like?" and again he said "I told you I'd love a quickie"... disgusted she stormed off to fetch the manager to throw the seaman out. As she left a customer at the next table who had observed all that had happened leant over and said "I think it's pronounced quiche"

It is groan-o-meter joke ... but it made me laugh.

I think that rabbit is a hare. Broke my bollix laughing.

This panic buying is getting out of hand .....:sweat:

Bob, humour in short supply at the moment. Keep up the good work. What is the panic for toilet rolls? Does Corvid-19 attack your bum?

It's a mystery ... but just in case there's something in it ... make sure the pooch is properly trained, or you could lose the family treasure ... :D

Mrs. Ravioli comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner.
He lives with a female roommate, Maria.
During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Anthony's roommate is.
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Anthony and his roommate than met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Anthony volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Maria and I are just roommates.''
About a week later, Maria came to Anthony saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote an email:
Dear Mama,
I'm not saying that you "did" take the sugar bowl from my house; I'm not saying that you "did not" take it. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Your Loving Son,
Anthony

A few days later, Anthony received a response email from his Mama which read:
Dear son,
I'm not saying that you "do" sleep with Maria, and I'm not saying that you "do not" sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the sugar bowl by now.
Your Loving Mama

Moral:
Never Bulla Shita you Mama

I guess it must be the drink :pint:

Varley 26th March 2020 09:24

Wouldn't that be reading double rather than writing double?

Malcolm G 26th March 2020 13:42

Did someone say double?
Don't mind if I do,
Make that an Armagnac

Varley 26th March 2020 14:01

Now you are hearing double! I wish I was, the only cognac I can enjoy is out of stock and, outrage on outrage, I am told that its resupply is not considered essential freight. Added to that the newest distillery is to turn its hand from gin to making sanitiser. Probably not that disastrous a choice, I am told it tasted like diesel. |Fortunately I am well stocked with gin and am especially enjoying Tanqueray Sevilla with hot water. An excellent winter drink.

BobClay 26th March 2020 16:59

I had to Google Armagnac !!

Thus confirming my origins as a West Midlands lowlife ... who thinks people who drink 'sherry' are posh.

(VP Sherrry at that.)

Varley 26th March 2020 17:12

Can I have the name of your GP please. Mine is always trying to stop me gargling anything alcoholic.

Malcolm G 26th March 2020 19:26

Not sure but there might be a difference between gargling and googling.
Perhaps in the former one spits it out and in the latter one swallows it hook, line and sinker.

keep your powder dry and your pan covered.
