Today I'm angry about.....

[Gary the Enfield]

Nobody else getting the Phallic symbolism?

No? Just me?

[ohjimmyjimmy]

Is it just me or are birds flying a lot lower these days?

I never used to be able to run over flying birds, now they're divebombing the car all the time

scientifically speaking - that's because the sky is getting much lower - we're all doomed...

[ohjimmyjimmy]

Is it too soon to blame the coalition government for this?

They're from Bolton though! Apparently "their story" is that they come from Watson Steel in Horwich... we must embrace them!




But yeah, they do look absolutely ridiculous

[bobo the clown]

Thats barely a working day jimbo. Better get used to it unless you're going to be one of them academic types

yay !

At the risk of starting a '4 Yorkshiremen' sketch, many moons ago I did a Joint degree (joint subjectsn not a degree in blow' and had 2 x 25,000 word theses, no 'part 1's' in the 2nd year so did exams for 18 subjects in a 5 week window. Some subjects had 2 & even 3 papers, all papers were of 3 hrs duration.

In fact, so much an overload that it wasn't possible to panic about them.

"Now ... You tell t' youngsters of t'day that ... & they wouldn't believe you !"

Ants, fecking things invading my kitchen again, come back winter

Shared fences, and neighbours who think they'll just leave their side and not bother protecting it till it falls to bits. Then you see the look of horror when you suggest they go halves on a new one, so you end up buying it for the same thing to happen again in a couple of years. Maybe I'm expected o go round each year and paint their side too? Xxxxers.

Sadly, Tango, it's probably in your own fiscal interest to do so in terms of damage limitation, but can you put up with the 'mug' factor? Not so sure that I could!

[Lord Kangana]

If you're going to rebuild the joint fence off your own bat, move it a bit onto their patch, steal some of their land. If they don't give a f*ck they'll not notice, and you'll have a bigger garden to boot.

Everyone's a winner baby.

Until they notice it's on their land and use it to fill the chimnea...

I have to say, I just don't get the "paint the fence" malarky.

Grass - not the Maui Wowie variety that makes you smile and giggle - T'other stuff that just grows and requires cutting regularly.

Bastard Devil Spawn it is.

If I watch carefully, I can see the fecker growing.

indeed - I only mowed mine a Week and a bit ago - and it has bastard grown again!! add to that - brambles - the triffids of the garden world....

[KeeeeeeeBaaaaaaab]

Sticky weed. That's worse than anything else the garden could ever see. Apart from ant's nests, which we had last year. And now, as we've been trying to seed the patches, something clawy has dug up on of the patches over night. Took the net off, dug it up. Grrr.

On the plus side, another couple of hours or so should crack it, after which I'd be most surprised if the memsahib didn't manage to conjour up some barbecues and a couple of bottles of Pimms.

Today I'm angry about people talking about barbecues and Pimms when I won't get home from work until 8 tonight, which is when I'm straight in fron of the Champions League Final....

In self defence, I've worked every weekend since Feb, apart from Easter and the Bank Holiday...

And it looks like I might be the road's Mr Popular as I can now hear other mower engines being started up, up and down the road, probably on the back of "If he's done his, you'll have to go and do ours"....

Think it'll be my round first, later on...

[Worthy4England]

Right.

I need to add little solar powered tree lights that get caught in your strimmer.

Bastards.

Today I went to the Dandenongs and to a shop type place to look for more pennys.
All they had were half pennys but I found three, and two wrecked halfs from the years I want (1900s)

At The Counter I said smiling that someone had bought all of them and was told that someone broke in and stole them all, plus they knew where the back up Pennys were; and got all the coins out of the wishing well

I was upset, I liked searching though to find coins I wanted.

No, that's why I'll just keep painting my sides and when it gets too bad I'll stick another fence inside the one we have. If they want to look at rubbish, fine. It's a bit of a no-win situation, I agree, and the house on one side being rented doesn't help. Sadly this is happening more and more in a once fine residential area. House prices today are killing folk off buying. Maybe "Dave" will sort it all out.
