Good taste. Thins the blood too, tho' I find it does slow me down a bit if taken too soon before a run.

36 hours sounds like a double marathon. Time to get New Labour to reform you're sweatshop hours. What do they think they are? Thatcherites?

Good morning each.
Will you guys up north turn the fan down a bit it's bl**dy cold down here. Get your own back in some other way.

Burnt Out Everard. Are you sleeping all day and getting up in the late evening. What's your piccie anyway? Looks like a tongue after a half-decent curry (and gin).

Glenn.
Seeing as how the bottoms dropped out of the stock market there must be real share bargains around. Do us a spreadsheet that will pick them out.

Norah. See above. Better bet than the gee-gees at the moment.

Hello Chimp.
Nice to know you're OK and not road kill. Although the ears look a bit flat.

Ooops. You're right, JJ. That should have read: My, it's cod. (Contemplating fish for supper and wondering what the local fish monger has on offer.)

Did you now it's their profession that makes them selfish? (Daily Mail Bumper Fun Book 1947 again).

LISTEN EVERYONE.
I want to be a very fast runner in the Over 60 age group. I would dearly like to talk to anyone over 60 who runs substantially faster than my times posted below.

10k 47.25
10m 1hr 21
1/2m 1hr 47

If there's anyone out there that you know fits the description please ask them to contact this thread so that we can all compare notes.

Burnt Out Everard. You should be first to apply.

I'll keep my eyes peeled, JJ, but you're the champ.
Morning, Piglet. How's the cold?

Johnny J

Hi Piglet. Hope you're feeling at least marginally better. The suits OK now I've sponged it down with TCP but it smells like an A & E unit.
Different suit today though, light grey with very pale mauve YSL shirt and light grey tie with tiny spots. CK black unmentionables clean this morning (I change them every six months whether they need it or not).
I know n-one cares what I'm wearing but I'm always hopeful that it will start a new line of conversation!

Careful with the 'softies' bit. Take you on at anything you'd like to name including
Quidditch.

Given the headlines today I just have to ask Wee Piglet THE question:

Do you have toys in your Pigsty?

If not, in line with the new DEFRA guidance, the forum will club together and get you some.

Now just what sort of toys do you like??

Snork boggling. Frog bottling. DEFRA guiding. As I said, you name it.
