Its either coronation street or an example of conceptual art.

Like wearing a bear suit and pretending to be spendius.

Oh you trembling little dears.

You make it sound like you want to be all tucked up safe and sound like they insist you are in Saudi Arabia. And at the same time at the cutting edge of modern life.

What's up with the guy? Suppose he did hire a pro. So he is selling his belongings to pay for more. So what? It's legal and quite common. Does it thrill you thinking he might grab a hold of you?

What's he done outside of your fevered imaginations?

It's obviously cheap accomodation.

When I was warning Queenie about the Big City you lot were all congratulating her and now here you are in just a few short weeks expressing crocodile concern for her welfare and nothing's happened.

Pull the other one DP. We know you hate men.

Hmm sex with a blond in hamster jam. People would pay good money for that.


Steve, I can't remember whether it was good money, or bad. All I recollect is me thinking that I was probably the best performer she'd had since she returned from her evening break.
I know this because, as much as she tried to suppress the fact that she was enjoying herself, in between yawns she gave the occasional smile. Very Happy

Oh I see in Holland. I thought you gave her some jam made from hamsters. Then I thought maybe you had sex in jam. But all the time....sorry had other things on my mind recently.

I've not tried it in jam, but certainly with jam. Raspberry, which was a big mistake. Next time I shall buy the seedless variety.

Regarding the "abba" factor, every time I hear the immortal words "if you change your mind, I'm the first in line", I think of that magical occasion. I'm damn certain that the next punter outside was singing this to me as I was taking off my keks.

Okay I've just driven back down here from Scotland.

Have you ever noticed, when you see a car on the motorway doing something unusual/dangerous/boneheaded, the driver turn out to be a person of limited intelligence (judging by appearances) or a woman?

Bless the ladies, where would we be without them after all, I yield to no-one in my admiration of the fairer sex but really, they should not be allowed behind the wheel of a car.

I would allow exemptions Mac.

Those ladies who advertise in Personal Services for example. Otherwise Doowop would have to pay for taxis on top. And tips. Possibly two trips although it will probably be cost effective for him to have it wait.

Possibly confining them to the slow lane might help matters.

I once saw a grey-haired granny behind the wheel of a '50s Morris Minor trundling along at 30 mph in the slow lane in the pouring rain at peak time. She could only just see over the dash and she had her head as far pressed forward as she could get it. Her husband, in a flat cap, was fast asleep by her side. Giant trucks were roaring past at 70 inches from her wing mirrors and wafting a fog of spray over her car. One after another. It was Friday and most of them had Scottish town names on them It was dark. I was stuck behind her for a bit because I had to wait for a large gap to appear in the traffic in order to risk getting around her.

I admired her actually. The British spirit shone through. I bet she could make a nice to-do out of some chops and potatoes and onions and what-not. I'd take evens she was a virgin bride.

How predictable that the mention of the word prostitute should get spendius all giddy.

PQ expressed concern about the situation. I responded in a way most normal people would you jerk.

Yeah I do hate men, well done for spotting that.

I came back with a 50 kg bag of Golden Wonder potatoes, grown by a specialist at Kirriemuir.
These are the Rolls-Royce, the Beluga caviar of potatoes, and not to be confused with the common crisps of the same name.
They are not a commercial cropper, and so hard to obtain away from the north where they are grown. They cannot be grown on the effete lands of the south.
I've got some on now for me tea, and am looking forward to being reminded of one of the favourite tastes of my young day.

How can we get some Mac? Good spuds are great. You should steam them for 15 minutes after boiling.

Nothing to it. It stuck out like Jimmy Hill's chin when he's indignant.

We are all jerks then eh?

Listen kid-- I know the game. I can see it coming from the other end of the prarie.

Demonise men. Every opportunity.

Softens up the Judges and juries before the cases start.

How many men are in jail right now due to the lying testimony, sworn on oath and accompanied with real tears, of vengeful women who had had the jury softened up by those sorts of hysterical stories, all fluffed up with menace, and left unchallenged by cowed men. And lost their home and their job.

Islam puts veils round ladies because they know that free and easy lifestyles pose risks to them.

You just want it both ways. It won't work. Only stupid men go anywhere near that sort of thing.

There's about 17 million men between 18 and 40 and one, just one mind you, hires a pro and before you know it he's imagined creeping up the drainpipe in a black mask to ravish poor little innocent maidens all a-tremble in their fluffy nighties.

There's probably 50,000 re-decorating the dining room right now so that it matches the new table and chair and after a 9 hour shift in a factory.

Bite on a cricket stump.

Fluffing and fluffy was mentioned twice there. All deep Freudian stuff, no doubt.

The potatoes were very good. Plenty more left in the bag, Spendy, if you're passing this way.

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about the variety:

Golden Wonder potato
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Golden Wonder is a late maincrop russet skinned variety of potato and is reputed by some to have the best flavour of all potato varieties. It is very dry and floury and is ideal for baking, roasting, and frying.

The potato was originally found in the UK, by a Mr. Brown of Arbroath, Scotland in 1906 and is believed to be a variation of the variety Maincrop (syn.Langworthy).

Unfortunately, yields of this potato tend to be on the low side. Although they can be susceptible to some diseases, slug and blight resistance are reasonable. Because of the good keeping qualities, and very good taste (and in fact it is said to be better 2 months after lifting), they are well worth growing.

The crisp company Golden Wonder was named after the potato.

If they are good as they sound I'll show 'em what slugs and bite resistance are like.

Are they best when on the flat-cut side in the hot and very naughty Dales lamb fat dripping off the leg rotating on the spit above the drip tray. With a bit of mint and some Bisto gravy. Peas and sprouts on the side. Spotted Dick and runny custrard to follow.

Ed. is my superego. His job his to keep control of my id. I have no ego. I can't stand Liberal Democrats.

That's why he made that intervention just then.

He knows I can take it on a bit further if Im not stopped.

I'm not sure if you are a jerk Spendius but sometimes you come across as a seriously disturbed misogynist. (or whatever the correct spelling is)

otherwise you're ok
