Evenin' Mathos.

There's nothing guaranteed to cheer me up much more than watching someone chase a chicken and it's also one of Rocky's favorite ways to get fit and fast on his feet before a big fight.

Nice one Dorothy, it's all good fun, for the spectators!

Just as a matter of interest, do you ever celebrate, birthdays, christmas etc. or are you a perpetual miserable pillock?

Hey Spendi, do you want to join our club?


Nah thanks. I don't chase chickens. Chubby pink old broilers is more my style. The kit sounds interesting though. Travels With Your Aunt. That's proper adventure. Test your steely nerves.

Being offered a boiled sweet by a programmed stewardess to stop my ears popping is a bit back to the nursery.

Have you heard the one about the "Hey Mister- d'ya wanna buy a duck?

Or the one about the tourist sex-maniac running out of money in an Egyptian house of ill repute.

This corner of the world I'm in is plenty big enough for me.

BTW- I would prefer it if you ceased to like me thank you very much.


Yes, I kind of suspected that. But I'll like who I like, and you can like it or lump it.

I bet in real life you are a leading light in your local Rotary or Lions, are a volunteer Father Christmas for the local kids' parties and sing in a barbershop quartet.

Your pal

Your inventions do you proud Mac. None of them would ever be close to the surface of my subconscious.

W.C. Fields is nearer. We hate clubs and especially those which pretend to collect for charities and we hate Christmas as well and kids should be seen and not heard and preferably be shunted off to boarding schools.

Hey did anyone like my Guy Mitchell song?

Does anyone remember it? Hits of the 50's ... he was a very big star here, in the era of Johnnie Ray and Rosemary Clooney, Mitch Miller, all that.

Never really liked Mitchell. But nowadays, for a change ...

Some bad news:

Stop being a grumpy little **** with everybody, it is needless and does not become you at all.


You need to say sorry to Lord Ellpus too, upsetting that inoffensive London Gentleman, you should be ashamed of yourself!


How's smorgsi as well, it's concerning that she hasn't been about this week. Trust your ok smorgsi?

Like the scorpion with its sting
Or like Gollum with his Ring
Spendy needs all his bile to get off on
If no carping, then no Spends
Like a tale that never ends
So I hope he keeps on posting here, and often.
