  1. Well, what with all my messing with my wood in the garden this afta it was after 5 when I got to towne and most shoppes were about closing, I rode past Crawshaws Butchers at walking pace, the man was standing at the door as usual, but not crying out about his late bargains, even though I could see many kippen bagged up in the display, so dismounting I axed him, Are dem chickens going cheap yet? He said Well, they’re 2 quid. They are 3 pound 50 pence a piece or 2 for six quid normally, so the cats have got a bargain tasty treat tonight. But I had to prompt him again, about my funny, about the chickens going cheap, and he managed a wry smile, agreed he’d never heard it before. Sometimes I feel my efforts go a little under appreciated, you know?
  2. I saw riding smoking dude today, as ever he was riding and smoking, he was crossing a dual carriageway at the time, 3 lanes of traffic in each direction, he did it at a legit crossing place, but took his chances against the traffic lights, and interestingly, was wearing a hi viz jacket and hi viz cycle helmet; I like that attention to health & safety, don’t you?
  3. Ok, that question slipped by me; so is Wanderlust a Brit thing? Didn’t get that? Can’t help you as to the sexual mores of the Brits, that stuff gave up on me yonks since. There is a heck of a lot more to the Sopranos than your usual mafia sheot, which is what made it landmark television, drop your preconceptions and maybe try it, you may be smitten and enthralled with it.
  4. It’s funny if it was in Sydney not Belfast, the N Irish don’t mangle bag into bag, Aussies do though. The N Irish mangle a good many words, ffs a word as simple as Now, you’d not adam&eve what they turn that into, I can’t even attempt to write it down for you. Editing to add: don’t get me wrong, the northern Irish accent can be lovely too, but it can also be very enervating, listen to Rev Ian Paisley, deceased on YouTube for an example of the latter.
  5. Only after I’d known her a long while, I’m reticent with hugging folk. But she ain’t too shabby, if that’s what you’re angling at <sharr and his bass>
  6. I would relish that, y’all. If you came here I’d cook you something good, whatever was seasonal or took my fancy, or I’d found, alive or dead, afterwards we could amble dogless through the beautiful Botanical Gardens where we might chance upon Oscar, the big long haired ginger moggie who often hangs there, thence to the pub for a few jars, probably there are dogs at the pub, fetching shticks and suchlike, you would get a taste of Sheffield life, my style, we’d pick up a log each and take them back to my gaff for the fire, I think you’d like it.
  7. Ozzie is a beauty, what a doggeh, II’d gladly snuggle he.
  8. Brilliant. With the big girl’s blouse, was she a Lancashire lass perchance? I love that accent btw, even though as a Yorkshireman we are not meant to; but it’s just so innocent and gentle, but broad as a barn at the same time. I am not your imaginary friend either, I really exist, and so do you, probably, and if you came over here or I went to Texas we’d meet up and treat t’other as friends Shirley, or is that my imagination walking away with me.
  9. I cannot deny I get a certain frisson with these reports, knowing this ? but the Germans are ahead of me even, according to my Lidl clock: is that why Thom has got into it early, the Oktoberfest Germanic biers?
  10. Sound good, Thom, but you sort of convey that you are getting into them in the early afternoon, if you are, cheers and good health - do not be messing with knives sublimely in the kitchen after drinking.
  11. People reacting to these lines may wish to check out the poem by Phillip Larkin, and if they were, stop crediting me with them.
  12. I am in the Sheaf Island after another lovely and productive day for me here in Sheffield in the Former Socialist Republic of South Yorkshire. I made wood while the sun shone, had a total body work out fetching it in a wheelie bin, three quarters of a mile, uphill, then I logged it up and stacked it, then I shopped, now I am in the ‘spoons for a curry and a pint, there is a beer fest still in progress, I have a pint of a dark beer at 5.5 abv called Morocco Ale (I tried a half of it yesterday, too) and it hitteth the spot a real treat: cheers. <supping beer emoji is a sad lack, No?>
  13. Ah, thou art referencing my post of the day before yesterday, or Tuesday as we also know it, where I said sometimes my brain does feel effed, and I need to rest it: topical stuff I like ?
  14. Just to add, I used the spoon last night on my reheat of the chestnut, mushroom and barley risotto, and it was good to use, and especially delightful in appearance, a spoon of unique character. When I suss the hosting site I shall show you a pic of it.
  15. I like the concept of instant citizen justice, but do worry as Chris has said, it can go Pete tong really fast, possibly. A dude here who went out to challenge car thieves at his home ended up shanked and dead by the screwdriver totting scrote of a thief.
  16. I did that - twice. Following my first run I said Glad that went well, Never again, though, and my new chum and guide Viktor said, I’ve done it backwards, peds: well I couldn’t let that lie, so, Once again, backwards. Turned out well, less scary when you can’t see where you’re going, don’t you know.?
  17. Nice; Ja, let’s hijack this dreadful thread about car crash tv shows, and talk instead of decent tv shows, of which there are so many these days, these golden days of tv dramas. Wanderlust does sound intriguing: a large part of my enjoyment of the Sporanos was Anth Ony’s (sic) sessions with his shrink, and that whole dynamic.
  18. Here we might take a get off as quite a different thing, as in, I am going to get off with her, she is HOT!
  19. They fuck you up, your mom and dad, they may not mean to, but they do
  20. This defines a show that has jumped the shark, and will be the last series Shirley, it will be dropped after bombing.
  21. The shows without the stars who were sacked or walked are actually better car shows, as such, their relative lack of popularity compared with the hugely popular shows with the plonker Jeremy, vile and deeply inadequate human being that he is, tells us all we need to know about the audience for these shows, mainly people fairly termed, deplorables, isn’t it.
