Whilst on the subjects of chauvinism and celibacy, King Beheddid Al Flogginn bought an entourage of 400 with him to England, but not one of them were female. Questions:
1. Was this why he managed to turn up bang on time to meet the Queen?

2. How many of his entourage will pratice celibacy while they are here?

I bet that quite a few posh concierges will be having their palms greased to turn a blind eye over the next few days.

England lost vs the USA in the quarter finals - German's Frauen won against Brasil the final :wink:

It was obviously a theoretical scenario, Walter.

I think that women's football would get a much bigger following if they designed the strips along the lines of the outfits they wear for beach volleyball and they played the highlights in slow motion, in the style of baywatch. Very Happy

How does one practise celibacy?

Shocked Confused

It's not like keepy-uppy, after all. Or perhaps it is.

Wow, this place is as exciting as watching a tree form an annular ring, today.

I'm off to buy some putty.

Byefernow.

Well, it looks as though a lot has been going on since I last posted. Very Happy

I've been to the glaziers, also bought some putty and fixed the next door neighbours window that was cracked by jolly revellers of halloween last night. She's in her 80's and is as deaf as a post, and didn't discover her window was broken until I pointed it out to her this morning.
I, along with other neighbours, only had the bother of washing egg from our front windows and cars.
Such fun, all this halloween stuff!
If I'd have been in last night, I'd have probably got myself arrested after "assaulting" one or more of the little bastards. Mind you, nowadays, I'd have probably ended up in hospital. Poxy country. Where has it all gone wrong?

That's my good turn and mad rant for the day.

So, how was halloween in your neck of the woods?

I put a poster (courtesy of Essex police) in the window threatening halloween tricksters with death. They stayed away.

I bought some sweets to give to the children who called and they seemed quite grateful. Everyone had a nice time, round here.

I was out. I went to the physio with my achilles.

Then I walked on to the Town Hall to complain that the paper-collection men had taken my bag and not left an empty one.
I'm to get a replacement "within two weeks" which is actually okay since they only come once a fortnight.

Enough information yet? La vida loca, or what?

I'm going to the Bakers Vaults tonight to hear a band, though. After my guitar class.

Rock 'n Roll!

Sure is.

They have been having live gigs apparently since 2003.

Jazz and blues, too. Check the website.

I lived in George Street once upon a time, just off New Bridge Lane. A short stroll if it wasn't raining. If it was, then a quick run. Very Happy

I saw you running past Alpine Road and Bateson Street trying not to get wet.

I was thin in those days, so I didn't have to run that fast.

Mind you, I could tell you a few inspiring tales about what I once got up to in Vernon Park.

'Twas a gurt full moon when we lay doon
The lampost had the flickers
I reached across and tried to get
My hand inside her knickers

you naughty boy

my parents were from Gee Cross.

Lived in Hyde Hazel Grove Poynton and Bramhall.

I failed the entrance exam to Stockport Grammar. So they packed me off to Kings School Macclesfield.

Dont ask how I ended up here...
