    Since we don't have a gardening section as such, so I thought I'd try here.... I've had a new fence up, after clearing three skip loads of ivy from the old one, but my neighbour won't do the same. Obviously, I don't want it growing back over my side, as it gets in the gutters, on the walls etc. Someone told me to find a good sized stem and knock some copper nails in, or drill a hole and insert a piece of copper pipe. Allegedly, the copper corrodes and produces copper sulphate, which kills the plant, without him being any the wiser. Is there any truth in this ?

    That one's easy ! The answer is just two little words......."Yes,dear".

    Why is "abbreviated" such a long word ?

    Cesar Millan tamed one on one of his episodes. He did an admirable job - the beast was bloody terrifying !

    If all truth is relative, are we living a lie ?

    Was it in black and white? Cheeky fecker ! I'll have you know we had the first colour TV in our street !

    Their old ads used to really ramp up the fear. Who remembers the fella in the back of the detector van ? "The TV is in the front room, and they're watching Columbo !"

    And another in my occasional series of "Write your own punchline"..... We saw our neighbour's daughter on her way out for a night on the town - all dolled up and looking very sexy ! My wife said "I can see myself in her." And I thought.....

    I've put a lot of weight on over Christmas, so I made an emergency call to Weight Watchers. I said " Can you send someone round ?" They said "Of course - we've got lots of those !"

    My bereavement counsellor died yesterday, but he was so good I didn't give a f*** !

    The good lady BB is forever 'tidying up' - the the trouble is that she never puts anything in the same place twice ! Drives me f***ing nuts ! If I can't find something (which is usually the case), she'll helpfully tell me that "it's on the side"........On the side of what exactly ?

    Yes ! Too notch ! Well done that man. My brother in law is a 6ft 1, 19 stone, ex - prison officer ! I can only assume that the young lad took it personally, because he never came back..... . What an ignorant fecker.Feel for the lad.His stupidity would infuriate the girl and make her keener on the lad.So an own goal by the cretin. Far from it........She never saw the lad again ! She had (and still has) this quaint, out-dated idea that she should do as her dad tells her. For what it's worth,I think she should make up her own mind who she dates and not be guided by s

    True story......... One of my nieces (16 or 17 at the time) was upstairs, getting ready for a night out with her latest beau. There's a knock at the correct and she calls down to my brother in law - "Dad, can you get that for me, I won't be a minute." So, he dutifully goes to the door, opens it and sees a young black lad on the doorstep. Without missing a heartbeat, he says "You can f*** off, for a start !", and swings the door shut in his face !

    For me, and most of my friends, Her Majesty represents continuity, tradition and stability, as well as something this country can look up to, with pride. The day she passes (and I hope it's a long way off !) will be a terrible day for our country !

    Difficult to take a girl home when you live with your mam ! I tried many, many times, but I only managed to smuggle a girl past my mum once, back when I was 15 or 16. It was a memorable night, but I woke up to pandemonium - I had failed to take into account the fact that I shared the bedroom with my brother !

    same here bud What ever happened to a skinful of beer, get your fingers stinky behind the bins with some ugly growler, a decent scrap, bag of chips and off home in time to greet the milkman ? They've no class these days !!

    Looking at those pix, you've been reading the same book as me...

    Now I know I'm getting old !! A skinful of beer, a snout full of class A, bang a 20 quid hoochie and have a blue pill ready in case you can't manage it....And that passes for a good night out these days ? Oh dear.....If that's the case, I'm GLAD I'm getting old !
