I'm sure you get a tad more than that, Bruce.

Anyway, if you like, for £100pm, I'll pick it up .... and you won't even need 4 types of bin !!

You have been warned.

I have to admit though, it is a clever use of social media.
Is that it? You have some easily entertained colleagues, Sir.
Indeed. It baffles me how genuinely excited people were by it. Especially women.

I suspect that middle age (20-40) year old women and teens is the target market for this.

One of them squealed, so loud, I could hear through my door, when she realised the hash tag embedded in the ad, was in fact trending on twitter.

Feck sake!

Well, there's a sodium about 20 yards from mine that emits a dim light onto the front lawn. Oh, and they gave me a little black container for putting spud peelings and the likes in which is perfect for storing golf balls in. That's about it though really. :(

Middle age starts about forty five mate, not twenty, and even then most of us postpone it for another ten years.. :wink:

Some time ago, checking into a hotel for a night in the surprisingly pleasant Calais the receptionist spoke to us, in English, in a real cod-French accent ... truly Arthur Boscombe stuff ('allo 'allo copper).

My son, then about 16 said "you can cut out the accent ... it's only 25 miles !"

Inappropriate maybe, but got a major guffaw.

Just everything here

"CHILDREN DON'T STAY YOUNG FOREVER" SAY PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE CHILDREN TO STAY YOUNG FOREVER

TEENAGERS ARE NOT AS NICE AS CUTE FUZZY WUZZY BABIES

The startling results of the survey
The most common view - from more than two-thirds of this group - was that childhood was now over by the age of 12.
That's some Brass Eye shit, right there.
