Community Chat – A Place for Weary Flingers

Yes, but I think they might have mentioned it at some point in the next 45 years. Maybe it was in the bathroom too. Although there was no toilet in the bathroom. That was in its own room. The past certainly is a foreign country.

[Brian N]

Foreign country?Different planet mate.We were looking at some old photos today after the funeral and there was one of my wife’s older brother swinging in a hammock in the back of a transit van…while it’s being driven!

What would this snowflake generation make of it all?

Nite all.

[Brian N]

Before I change the subject could I just say bathrooms should come with a government warning.

So @karen68 is @sweetp on an extended sabbatical or has she thrown down her tools in protest?Noticed she has been inactive for over a month.

[Desperate Dan]

Reminds me that Superb Owl time is almost upon us.

[Desperate Dan]

No protest from me. I think we are getting more Angry Birds Challenges and I like that. Runt hunting on yesterday’s at the moment.

[Brian N]

Harsh.

You must have more runts than pups by now although given the rules regarding proof of score no pups are being given out atm(not that many pup scores are being achieved as far as I can tell).

Here’s Fred and Barney having a gay old time. https://youtu.be/NAExoSozc2c?si=VahUkwGZblSW-uTf

[Brian N]

Foreign country indeed.

[karen68]

@BrianN as far as I know she is taking a well-deserved break. Not sure for how long though.

[Brian N]

Thanks Karen I knew you’d know.Now can you tell me the winning numbers for this weeks Euromillions lottery?

Some clever chap has unearthed the old Rovio McDonalds game or at least the first two levels.Very laggy but still playable.Did you guys ever play any of the old Web games?

[HunnyBunny]

@BrianN condolences to your wife, MiL, and of course, the toilet!
Sorry…

[Brian N]

Toilet humour eh?

[Desperate Dan]

Elvis is the elephant in the room.

Sorry…

[Brian N]

He certainly was as referenced by EE in Buddy Come Over.

Speaking of elephants in the room, watching the world’s superpowers squabbling over the last of the Earth’s resources is depressing.Do you think they ever consider how pointless it all is in the Oval Office or the Kremlin or the Chinese equivalent?

When Trump is inaugurated that’ll be two elephants in the room.

Off to bed but can change the mood by saying I’ve now found a playable version of AB Cheetos.Such Fun!

[Brian N]

Alas the lagginess is taking some of the fun out of it.

[Desperate Dan]

History will judge all these people to be the fools they are.

Unless the fools themselves write the history books.

Churchill had a point.

[Desperate Dan]

I went on AB Fandom to check out the Cheetos game. Apropos of nothing, some dude there is asking people to pray for their sick cat?  Is this a service provided by the Nest?

[HunnyBunny]

George Orwell made the point first

[Brian N]

About praying for sick cats? Didn’t come across that in Animal Farm.

[HunnyBunny]

Napoleon obviously ate all the cats

[Brian N]

Character based on Stalin of course but applies equally to Putin.Weedle your way into power and undo any good achieved by predecessors.Do love a katsu curry though.

[Brian N]

Loving season 2 of Rogue Heroes,great soundtrack as per.Ep 3 featured not one but two Fall tracks…aaaahhhh…

[Brian N]

Tempted to play Theme from Sparta FC(which incidently served as the theme music for BBC Final Score for a number of years). Does anyone remember MES reading the classified scores one Saturday? Surreal. Does anyone know what I’m on about?

Anyways future tense? https://youtu.be/kPAZV8y4B44?si=tGR7-2Bd3AK-OeFg

@ixan57 Attention!!!

You’re quite a techy nerd on the quiet so here’s the problem:

Tried to download a rather large app last night but it was getting late and I didn’t want to let it run overnight(OCD) so I cancelled it but couldn’t remove the box by clicking the X.Just decided to shut down PC.

Next morning restarted ,box gone ,but when I tried to go again the app said”This already appears in your directory please uninstall or move to another folder but I can’t find it anywhere so now I can’t install the app.Have tried looking online for solution but nothing.Any ideas?

[Desperate Dan]

Only songs in Welsh from me now on.  Expect you caught these girls on Women’s Hour today @hunnybunny!
