Dear Col. Blimp,

I’m delighted that you have taken such an interest in the efficacy of my prose and seen fit to correct the salient points as you’ve seen fit. I guess the status afforded to you as forum host has empowered you to look after such a dispirit collection of members in such a way; to which I take the opportunity to thank you. No doubt…[Read more]

Alan,

Good for you.

Sheltered accommodation can be very reassuring

So, I take it that you don’t have a D.I.Y tale to share with us :)

Suzy,

An alternative moral could be:

Operate within your capabilities. see the ref. “Bit off more than I could chew”

There are companies out there that will take a responsible attitude and understand that self assembly products will sometimes be beyond the scope of all users and accept that sometimes the end result will not be as expected;…[Read more]

Dear Mr Pedantic,

You’re dead right. I can do a web search to and refresh my memory when needed but I choose to use artistic licence to add a funny punch line to end my tale.
Somehow I dont think “I cut off more than I could chew” would have fitted so well.

I don’t think John and Lorena Bobbitt would mind this alteration to the facts, the end…[Read more]

A: Couldn’t possibly tell you, it’s to embarrassing

Q: Lionel Blair or Tony Blair

Or you could get a Mac.
No viruses full stop
It just works.

Crickey, I’m doing well that’s three to cross off the list already.

Just responding to your comment Tory.

“Someones either moody or just spoiling for a fight.”

So, does this mean I should delete you from my Christmas Card list?
:wink:

Tory,

It looks like my dastardly plan has faltered. I was expecting some outrage about my remark about hating Italians and its backfired and fizzled out with the thread giving solice to Twilight and rightly so.
So, just to clarify:

I hate Italians those little slanty eyes give me the creeps cannot abide them etc etc.

Whoops I didn’t mean…[Read more]

I was invited to my grandson’s bonfire party on Sunday night. 4 lads from 2-7 I thought it would be nice to take some fireworks with me so popped into Asda late in the afternoon and bought what I thought was a good selection box. It was £29.99 a reasonable price or so I thought. I topped it up with a pack of rockets @ £9.99 and was pleased when I…[Read more]

Tory Girl

Play along with me; what’s your opinion about Italians for or against Y/N?

Legatus Pontius Seneca

Seeing that racism is accepted here……….

(Please note that racism is NOT allowed on this site…. Ed)

……allow me to add a little bit of my own. I note you have a Roman ‘handle’ (not candle) I hate Italians, always have always will those little slanty eyes give me the creeps, if I had my way they would be totally…[Read more]

Well thats clearly identified two of a kind so far,
any more with this view; anyone want to make it three?
Maybe you could form a Party. :roll:

UGO,

The very fact that you’re able to make that comment which many may read as your acceptance towards racist remarks indicates that this forum operates a free policy. What I objected to on my previous forum outlet was the fact that the administrator not only selectively blocked some of my posts on the topic but he altered those he left on and…[Read more]

Hi ya,

Just found this site after a couple of weeks going round in circles on chat forum. To many abbrev… for me to handle not to mention the confusion when my typing speed couldn’t keep up with them.
I was a member of another site, had loads of fun and made many posting unfortunately I ran foul of the adminstrator when I objected to some…[Read more]
