  1. It found its way onto a ledge above the ma-in-law's front door. It's a pet animal, and has since been returned to its owner. She managed to get this picture, but the question remains..........what is it ?
  2. And a turkey twizzler, for a real treat ?
  3. I would..........if they had vinegar on !
  4. I use an old Galaxy Ace that's as old as God's dog...........and I love it ! Then again, all the bells and whistles don't interest me - functionality is all that matters to me ! Several friends have got much more modern Galaxy's and the clove them, too !
  5. Bagpipes occupy that no man's land between a sound and a noise. I'm half-Scottish and I can't stand them !
  6. I heard the went to live on a farm in the country.........
  7. Written permission tucked in my pocket, I have derived the shooting rights from the owner...........game on !
  8. To which, mine invariably replies "On the side...." I reply "On the side of what ?"...........aaaaaand, we're digging the trenches, ready for the next domestic !
  9. Weird thing is that I love those little white pickled onions - I can eat them by the jarful ! But put vinegar on my chips and I'll spew...........
  10. I'd have snatched your hands off, but I can't stand vinegar !
  11. That's nothing ! My sister -in- law is proper scatty and absent minded..........annoys the feck out of me. She bought a new phone and lost it before she got out of the shop !
  12. They look out for people up to snow good ! (Coat please !)
  13. You've got a point there ! Not really a problem for us, though. The good Lady has fibromyalgia, which bring about tremendous memory problems, among other issues - hence, she can't remember passwords, card numbers etc (or where she's put my stuff !) - "so it's probably better if I keep them safe, love.". Which means it's all down to me.........and you have to get up early to catch me out !
  14. Memory loss is a terrible thing.........,but at least you make new friends every day !
  15. I don't get all this online identity theft thing. What was wrong with rummaging through dustbins ?
  16. A little from column A, and a little from column B ?
  17. I hate people who say, "It's always in the last place you look !" OF COURSE IT IS ! BECAUSE ONCE YOU FIND IT, YOU STOP LOOKING !!
  18. A thought has just occurred to me.......... I believe the cake was meant to have Bert and Ernie, from Sesame Street, on it. Couldn't the bakers have simply said "We can't make that cake. Those characters are copyrighted." ?
  19. "The management reserve the right to refuse service, without explanation." Common sense has, for once, prevailed !
  20. Welcome mate. It's an uphill struggle to get permissions - especially your first one. You can't realistically expect anyone to give theirs up - you need to put in the legwork and effort yourself. Knock on lots of doors and try a bit of countryside networking, making the most of every contact and opportunity - it's not what you know, it's who you know ! Good luck !
  21. I'm terrible at remembering birthday. At the good Lady's suggestion, I wrote them on the calendar............ .............and forgot to check the calendar !
  22. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave............(there must be a song in that somewhere)
  23. Usually, if I can't find something, it's because the good Lady has been 'tidying up'.......... She was once searching all over for her phone - found it in the fridge !
  24. I'm looking forward to your interview with Andrew Marr on Sunday, mate !
