Today I'm happy about......

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Well apart from the C being in the wrong place, obviously :wink: the grouting on the bricks around the C are a different colour and resolution than the other grouting, and the top arch bricks are too small for consistency, plus most obviously of all there is a recess where the windows enter the wall bit the perspective shows a sheer wall - that is physically difficult if not, given the straight lines of the brick layers, impossible.


Tiles have grout. Bricks have mortar. Just saying like.....................
Yeh, I had a temporary blockage regarding what you call that stuff what is squished between bricks and then sets as hard as stone. Grouting popped into my head and I thought even if somebody notices that I've used the wrong word they're not going to say anything because they'll know what I mean...but for the purist construction engineers and brickies amongst y'all (whilst not forgetting all the bathroom fixture technicians and DIYers) I wholeheartedly apologise for my incorrect terminology and jargon mangling ways.
That's not a leopard!

Pointing is what you DO with mortar.

:lol: Today I'm happy because they found more incriminating footage of this pair of wankers. Timed to perfection to derail Gray's return to TV punditry. :lol:

Oh - possibly not safe to have the volume up if int' th'office.

The female presenter looked extremely hurt and offended by the banter taking place........FFS! Andy Gray may be allowed a comeback into a job he's proved to be very good at. So lets do our sanctimonious best to f*ck it up for him. Tw*ts

It did LK, but after recent events re my health, it gives us ( my wife & I, ); a different outlook on lifes priorities etc....I don't want to sound a bore, but life is certainly worth living. Not tomorrow, cos there may not be one. If you want to do summat, do it now mate............Anyway, no more expensive than a small family salloon. :oops: .........And I feel like Rory Gallagher!!! (tho he mainly played a strat)

Jacking smoking.

Couple of Damascene moments recently, plus a number of external factors, plus the help of a book on the recco of GtE.

15 hours so far :D

15 hours !! Including sleeping time.

I've never smoked and so can't understand but is it that addictive ? I'd have thought 15 hours was simply "I've not lit up yet today". How many a day do you (sorry, DID you do) ?

I'm not belittling it at all and I'm nor being smug at all just have no reference point to relate that to.

Keep it up, btw.

It was only last week that I saw the price of a pack of 20 and was astonished. A pack a day is £200 pm.

I did it in 2004... Best thing I ever did. Keep it up, mate. Just let the moment pass - and although those moments come at you thick and fast at first they gradually decrease, promise.

Aye keep it up Pru. One of the best things you'll do. I gave up 2009.

Happy today as we chose our new car/tank and put the deposit down. Hopefully we'll get the paperwork sorted and pick it up next week :D
