  2. Hi Newt! thanks for the jokes here's one for you Mickey and Minnie Mouse are in court, going through a bitter divorce battle. Finally the judge says "I've heard enough. I'm going to take a one-hour break and I'll come back and give my decision" One hour passes.The judge eventually emerges and looks across at Mickey. "Well Mr Mouse," he sighs. "I've heard your arguments, but I'm afraid I find you've been unable to prove your wife is crazy." Mickey looks perplexed at the judge and says: "Crazy? I didn't say she was crazy. I said she was f***ing Goofy." Bluey
  3. Well Peter I suppose if anyone was to ask who you were you could always tell them you're the Compo appreciation/fan club having your weekly meeting in honour of the great Compo from "Last of The Summer Wine" cus that's the picture that conjures up in my mind (I bet there's more than one set of wrinkled stockings on those buses )
  4. Hi chesters! I see you live in farnham, I used to have an aunt and uncle who lived in godalming near the railway station. I used to stay with them in my school holidays, and I used to fish the small network of streams called locally "the tank traps" these were (I believe) overflow streams from the river. I remember my best catch was a 6lb chub from a pool caused by two of these streams joining, the bait if I remember was a small frog which we caught on the path while walking to the river. The chub looked huge, still, I was only 13 at the time. I know this has nothing to do with this post, but I thought I would share it with you, do the streams still exist or have they been built on? rgds bluey
  5. A very amusing piece however with regards to the longevity part I have to disagree with you there. Married men DO NOT live longer than single men, the hell and purgatory they go through being married just makes it seem as though they live longer, I should know I've just celebrated? (is that really the right word?)20yrs and it seems an eternity. As for them being more willing to die, well, it's the only way they can get any peace, so can you really blame them?
  6. actually I've just checked my mail again and yours was sent back unknown and not delivered :confused: I only checked 'cus I was waiting for an answer from someone, and found 2 new, one from the local radio station thanking me for sending dragonbat's bit on f1 and yours returned :confused: I checked your address and I did use the right one will try again
  7. dragonbat mate that was a gem! I e-mailed the dj on our local radio station as he's a great follower of F1 and he read it out on air it took some time 'cus he was laughing so much ta for the laugh Bluey

  10. hi there yes it is that lovely fluffy thing, I can understand your saddness at having to lose it, I think it's a very brave sheep especially when it does that huge dive and starts to smoulder as it comes down the screen, lands in the bath and then looks at you with those big black eyes.
