Re: The Children's Off Topic Thread
Meanwhile this thread gets dafter by the posting, how is one supposed to communicate if everything has to be off topic. Clearly, a bit like P&O's embarkation system, I don't seem to understand how it can ever work.

Not surprised if you pay £60pp for fish and chips, no doubt dressed up with some fancy name to make it sound like your getting something special.qbman1 wrote:Rich !!Mervyn and Trish wrote:How was old Raymondo?qbman1 wrote:Returned home from lunch at 7 p.m. yesterday

Another live mice appeared Sunday morning!! Decided to lock both cat flaps so cat could only get out and not back in - bloody thing strolled in at midnight after negotiating how to open the cat flap round the other way!!! Luckily with no mouse in tow! I give up!

Quite right Batty. Just a reminder, these were the original rules.Dark Knight wrote:towny...none of it is off topic, its the same as LOTP but it stops the naughty posters getting told off my modplod
Yes I was a little tongue in cheek when I started when we were being birched daily by the Modplods for mucking up other threads. Since then we have all relentlessly breached all those rules. But we have avoided the birchMervyn and Trish wrote:Okay here it is for the hooligans among us who can't resist going off topic. On the Official Off Topic Thread, where the only sin is to stay on topic, the rules are simple. Every post must be on a different topic from the one before and must not mention the original title of the thread, so the words official, off, topic and thread are banned.
