  1. Indeed Chris ! Carp is a delicacy for Jewish New Year, and in many traditional Jewish homes you'll find a carp swimming in the bath, being purged in the clean water. Don't think the syndicate manager would be excessively chuffed, mind you!!
  2. A few years ago, Mrs.B was due some new specs, and fancied something really fashionable. So she checked out a few pairs and settled on a nice pair of Jeff Banks, with tinted lenses, the whole shebang. Set me back over £150 - a huge extravagance for us ! She had them at home for literally 30 minutes, put them on the arm of the chair and went to the kitchen. Jack Russell jumps up, grabs the specs and put her canines right through the middle of one of the lenses ! You've never seen a dog run so fast.........................
  3. Heard about this on the radio earlier........ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2409152/Woman-cockerel-ate-diamond-earring-wait-8-years-back.html .......and it got me thinking. What's the biggest calamity an animal has caused you - be it pet, livestock or wildlife ??
  4. BPR also gifted me a nice catty too , and I've always found his advice to be sound and workable. I only ever take people as I find - on that basis, I'm happy to count him among my friends, as I'm sure many others are here.
  5. Lokk out for a nice leather settee waiting for the Council to collect it !!
  6. You're far too modest, Baz - that's a lovely bit of work ! Well done, mate !
  7. What would it take for someone to look at a fork and think , "Mmmm - I wonder if....."
  8. Once played rugby against a team that was made up of Southern Hemisphere lads, and included 3 or 4 Fijians. One of them hit me with the most almighty tackle I've ever felt - like being hit by a runaway truck !! Broke my collar bone and dislocated my shoulder, so I would definitely advise against picking a fight with them !!
  9. It's not a competition, just have fun, that's the most important thing. Let us know how you get on, mate !
  10. Shame - the Syrian rebels need al the help they can get !
  11. My first wife had (has?) 2 brothers, both in London Fire Brigade. I hated both the w*nkers, but was honest enough to say they were braver than me. Don't begrudge them a single penny - ever !!
  12. is this camerons loop hole? arent we sharing aircraft carriers and troops with the frogs? f*****g cameron bleating on about this vote. a f*****g 5year old knows that we are sick fed up with wars and our soldiers being killed and maimed,for what? dont see this nation benefiting from these wars. we are flooded daily by the refugees and scum from these shitholes our lads are fighting in. we go there to be maimed or worse,and they come here and bleed the place dry. it be f*****g hilarious if it wasnt so tragic. let the yanks batter on a f*****g war between uncle sam and the reds is well overdue l
  13. It wasn't vermin 'till it got in my garden and killed all my 8 hens and 3 of my ducks ! If I had been licensed, I would have taken pleasure in killing the fecking thing !!
  14. They burgle your house but don't feel the urge to 5hit on your bed. Or only nick your car because it's long walk home and it looks like rain and anyway I'll bring it back in the morning. Or mug you but only take some of your money. Decent criminals - don't talk bollox !! Misunderstanding, Littlefish - I'm not saying you are talking b******s. Sorry mate!!

  18. that's because your not tryin hard enough Im trying im just shite at it I'm not the best wood-worker going - I could probably chew a better shape out, but it's fun, I get to spend a bit of time on my own and, best of all, Mrs.B is not the slightest bit interested in it !!!
  19. "Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, but I am very disappointed with that attitude - I can assure you it's much, much more important than that." I'm not a Liverpool fan, but that quote says it all about the man, really.
  20. Tried a hot spoon to smooth, nut no great success, so I just trim the rough corners with Stanley's Wife and leave it at that. Love the 'home-made' look myself - no two the same !!
  21. PC World - have to watch what you say in there !!

  22. Just a thin coat of cooking oil - you're stopping it sticking, not deep frying it !!
