Do people really fall for this?

[Noodley]

I do wash you know, quite often I use soap too.

I am sure you could provide me with something I would wish to chop though.

My wazoo perhaps? At least then I'll know what it is as you chop into it.

Women are also more at risk of falling for these things, what with them spending all day thinking about soap operas, reality shows and what to make in th kitchen.

for the first two in the list.

The last one is true

I think you'll find it was my fingers that typed it, but if you can type with your tongue perhaps we should meet up as who knows what else you can do with it...

Noodley, does mummy know you are on the internet?

 

[welsh dragon]

Its not only women who are conned. Old male farts are just as susceptible. Not mentioming any name here, but one spring's to mind. And noodley, if you could find my boot you would need to be a contortionist.

Will you have scrubbed it with bleach first? Or do I have to get the mangle tongs out?

No, I think you'll find it's mostly women. As well as the stuff I mentioned earlier, I think they also think too much about fluffy animals and finding naff links to post on Facebook along the lines of "live life to the fullest of your potential"; as they sit down with some chick lit waiting for Emmerdale to start.

Noodley - always such a hit with the ladies. Massive nobber you know.

you said you'd never tell...

as long as welsh dragon points it out for me I could always give it a quick once over

Like this ?

 

[welsh dragon]

I think youll need to give it more than the once over. Youll need a scrubbing brush and lots of bleach, for both your wazoo and your mouth. Open wide noodley. Both ends that is.

 

[welsh dragon]

You know what they say about men. There are only two things wrong with men. Everything they say and everything they do.

At least that narrows down the location of my wazoo...

I must confess that now the sun has come out, I am watching the wood burner and wondering if I should shove lots more wood on it elevating the lounge to Hotter Than Hades status within the hour, only because the hubby is in the garden chopping logs with an axe and I am sure if he keeps at it long enough he will strip to the waist to perform the task and then I can make lots of things in the kitchen whilst I watch him at work and supervise the small people in a distracted manner. If I go through lots and lots of wood, he shall have to get his bolster and sledge hammer out and have at it with the really big logs *sigh* but even then I would not be in a position to fall for that type of mail.

Older people tend to get caught out with this sort of thing. I think they just panic. They don't look at emails like this logically. The same thing happens when nasty little oiks knock on they're door, telling them that they're roof needs repairing and charging them a fortune for doing diddly squat.

You and I and an awful lot of other people realise what a load of rubbish it is and would just delete it, but some people are gullable and would hand over they're details. People who con others like this should have they're hands chopped off as far as I am concerned.

Did you watch 'Pillars of the Earth' too? Mind you, I have a suspicion they may not have had t'internet then. No sign of it anyway.

[CAD mode]And if those who con the elderly deserve this, what about energy companies and those in a privileged commercial position?[/CAD Mode]

My MiL was a sucker for a scam. Among other things, we found out why Fortune Tellers are so called; they don't tell your fortune, they charge a fortune for telling you drivel. All done courtesy of Royal Mail, by gawd knows who, from gawd knows where. And you can't tell old folk they are being conned thus, because they know best!

Don't forget to take him a can of ice cool drink so he can place it against his head and then lower it across his torso...
