You don't say

Just as we were getting to know a bit more about how deep the BBC have managed to delve into Merv's subconscious .

[Mervyn and Trish]

Not biting

[Stephen]

Going to be a hot one today folks

[Mervyn and Trish]

Looking good in the south northlands too

[towny44]

That can't be right

[Manoverboard]

A hot white butterfly just flew into one's ' Garden Room ' to cool down ... just saying

[Stephen]

How do you know it was hot. Was it panting

[Manoverboard]

Cos it went straight to a shady spot and gently flapped its little wings .... Aaaahhhh !

ps ... and then I gently picked it up and popped it into Mobietta's sarnie

[Stephen]

You can't beat a nice bit off lettuce in your sarnie.

[Stephen]

A bit keen

[qbman1]

If you have a ferret fetish, that is

[Mervyn and Trish]

Can't beat a bit of alliteration

[towny44]

Must be a couple of southern softy ferrets.

[qbman1]

Can you eat ferret - they look quite tasty

[Mervyn and Trish]

You can only eat the pink ones. The blue ones aren't ripe.

[Stephen]

Been pi**ing down all day here. And cold out as well.

Am I just being too much of a Yorkshire tight wad, or do others think this is sneaky.
I have just cashed in a mature savings account with Nationwide, the only closure option was to be paid out by cheque no option to have a bank transfer. Consequently the account matured 28th, cheque arrived lunchtime post paid into bank (via post office) will probably be in my account tomorrow or Friday, but the funds will not be released until probably next Tuesday or Wednesday, so not available for me to move until then, and Nationwide will have had my money for 8 or 9 days longer than necessary.

[Stephen]

I wouldn't worry too much John. With interest rates the way they are you're not going to lose much in the way of interest on £10.50

I see a white actor has pulled out of a film because he's found out the character he was to play is Asian in the comic on which the film is based. And everyone says he's done the right thing. Including me. But why then do they still talk about casting a black actor as James Bond, who is clearly white British in the books?

And another thing.... the social services department which placed a Christian child in a Muslim foster family. Would they have ever dreamed of placing a Muslim child in a Christian family?

Is it me.........

No, I for one agree with you and I don't think we are in the minority what ever the pc brigade would try and make us believe...

[Stephen]

It's a mad world.

[Mervyn and Trish]

And that's only us.....
