I thought it was definitely the may  (i.e. hawthorn) blossom. Don’t say now I’ve been doing it wrong all these years.

Mind you, folks round these parts are clearly confused. The other day on the beach we saw somebody dressed for arctic conditions in a huge puffer jacket at the same time as someone (male unfortunately) nude sunbathing.

That’s…[Read more]

Aye. I’ve cast my clout.

(That one will not travel)

BTW, I bumped into Lee Mills on a remote Anglesey footpath yesterday. You know, Bradford City’s first £1m footballer who scored one of the goals against Wolves that sent City into the Premier League in 1999. He was surprised to see me.

Did the mayor of Chicago really say that the Pope was dope? is that a cardinal sin?

(avoids any discussion about Arsenal…)

Well, we are educating people, aren’t we?

We know it’s really like this @brianN.  Some useful techniques for you here.

Hi @abcrazy, see you found the new premises. There a few of us still around, one or two old timers you might know. Some just lurk, coming out when there are free drinks. Others just stick weird stuff on the jukebox. Once in a blue moon there’s actually a post about Angry Birds. Otherwise we moan about how bad our respective governments are without…[Read more]

Twiggy’s friend Colin went to vote in today’s elections, according to the BBC.

Contestant 1: Pretty fast. 300mph.

Host: I think some cars go quicker than that.

Contestant 2: Yes, it’s definitely more. 500mph.

Contestant 1: Yes, that’s better. It’s near that. Not…[Read more]

Fontaines DC excellent.

In the interest of balance

My lawyer is working on it,

I must point out the looping thing isn’t doable on Classics, which is where I spent a lot of time, including on the level in question. Also, it’s not 2013, I may be the only person left actually playing Angry Birds (outside the Challenge and Classics) so I reckon I can do as I like. If anyone wants to moan, first they ought to come and play as…[Read more]

If a sharpshooter badge can be obtained by providing a set of tally pages as proof (these generally won’t be live for obvious reasons) then on what grounds does the doc have the right to demand I remove a high score (that beat his) that is proven by a non-live tally page? It’s not a puppy claim. This surely illogical.

This is a serious question.…[Read more]
