I worked out that in dog years, Twiggy is exactly 43 years old today. So what are the odds I would get for sending a friend of mine a birthday card for her 43rd birthday today?

What is a pirate’s favourite element?

Arrrrgon!

If this is a competition for worst joke of the week there’s only one winner…”@ixan57 are you still up?”

[Brian N]

Is there any truth in the rumour that non-prince Andrew is being lined up for the next series of Celebrity Manhunt?

I don’t condone anything he’s done in connection with Epstein but it seems like he’s been singled out for a right royal (ahem) kicking.What about these faceless Wall St. hedge fund manager types whose names are constantly referred to in connection with Epstein but don’t get the same treatment?

Yours sincerely

I know I’ve broached this subject before but why is it you don’t see a fruit fly all day but as soon as you as you crack open a bottle of red the little buggers are everywhere.

Squished two of the little gits so far and it’s not easy they usually float above yer hands when you clap.Especially after a bottle of red.

So I watched all 7 series of Bosch and have started the (first) spinoff series Bosch legacy.He has retired from LAPD and is now a PI,still into jazz, still has a dog called Coltrane but worse he has a techy dude helping him who is even more into jazz so when they start off on one my head wants to explode(bit like those fruit flies).Good telly though.

I enjoyed The Traitors. The end was like a Greek tragedy.

[Brian N]

Of course the greatest Greek tragedy: Euripedes?Eumenedies!

Hello everyone. Apologies for my long absence, I’ve been dealing with some health issues that have had me totally distracted.

I’ve scrolled back to read a few pages & not only do I find some lovely words from @BrianN (thank you!), but I see all you Brits were cheering for my beloved Blue Jays. It was a heartbreaking loss but what a ride they took us on.

I am determined to catch up on everything here & all the messages that have collected.  And I can’t remember the last time I flung a bird so maybe I’ll give it a try again.

I hope all of you are doing ok.

[Brian N]

Hi Karen great to hear from you and I hope you’re getting on top of those health issues.Puts everything else in perspective.x

[karen68]

Things are much better @BrianN!

[Brian N]

Great to know @karen68 and as the Queen of Seasons you might want to have a fling at today’s Challenge.Though my recent nemesis @hallieginsb has set another high bar.

[Desperate Dan]

Hi @karen68. This is my THIRD attempt to post, the one late last night and the one this afternoon have vanished into the ether. @briann has said it well. Enjoy the archival readings – one long Greek tragedy.

[Desperate Dan]

At last!!!!

[HunnyBunny]

@karen68 lovely hear from you again
Hope things are getting better xx

[karen68]

@Hunnybunny hello! Nice to be back. I hope your new knees are both well. 🙂

I did fling a few at the challenge. I’m not a fan of Piggywood, the scoring is ridiculous. Haven’t managed to better my score.

 

[catsnbirds]

@karen68 @hunnybunny Glad both of you are doing good! Aging is so much WORK, need a vacation from it 😁.

[Desperate Dan]

See that Welsh rugby has entered a brave new era. Oh dear.

(Sorry to interrupt you girls).

[Desperate Dan]

Just checked out today’s challenge.  The top 5 being aimed at reads Brian, Asher, Me, Kathy and Hunnybunny.  No-one can get near us. Way to go, BP!

[Brian N]

Yes normal service resumed at The Principality Stadium.Maybe Leek growing should be the new Welsh national sport?

Tenuous link but Atlanta Falcons have a player with the delightful name of Sauce Gardner(sic).Insert your own joke.

[Brian N]

You do realise @catsnbirds the only vacation from old age is death?

[Brian N]

Have to agree with @karen68 about Piggywood.Mental physics though I’m sure some sadistic flinger got their Ultra Sharpshooter badge in PWS.We are a mad bunch though aren’t we?

[Brian N]

Must be on a par with @jrsqonk doing it on Jurassic Pork.

[Desperate Dan]

Don’t know what’s going on, most of my posts are disappearing.

Did you hear what happened when there was an explosion at the cheese factory?

The only thing remaining was debris.
