Post a lie about the poster above.

MDB's intense sugar-lust and keen handyman skills have unfortunately proved all too exploitable by some of the less principled members of his extended family, perhaps the worst example being that of his Auntie Nan, who got him the redecorate her front room for a Bounty bar and a Curlywurly.

SP99 once liked Bounty Bars, until someone informed him they contained coconut.

iAmiAdam spends every Saturday going round local newsagents and supermarkets, putting "Marathon" stickers over the front of Snickers bars. Don't even get him started on Starburst packets, or CIF cleaner.

Toshiba used to suffer an attack by the Munchies.

Speicher created the Clangers "Whistling" language, but was never credited for this amazing linguistic feat.

tb's mum put him up for Britain's Got Talent on account of the over £200 she'd spent on tap dancing lessons, but that awful Osbourne woman told him that although Britain had talent, he most certainly did not, while Mr Cowell made comments that really cannot be repeated on a family-friendly forum

Swee'pea is very pleased that he has started one of the shortest threads on the forum.

It was a load of balls anyway.

Uncle Mort was going to say that about Swee'pea, but was not brave enough.

 

[swee'pea99]

Speicher is just too damn quick. On a keyboard anyway...sadly on a bike she seldom exceeds 4.5 mph.

Ever so slightly off topic, Uncle Mort. Magnus Backstedt and his colleague on the Eneco tour were giggling over the translation of Schatsberg, and would not say what they were laughing about, what does it translate to?

Equally OT, and pending a response from the Man from Uncle, you bring to mind a recent letter from The Grauniad:

I read your account of Spurs Champions League with a little sadness (Sport, 18 August). In 1972, during a stay in Berne, I attended a football match between the Stuttgart Lions and the Young Boys. The match was completely unmemorable but the full team names on the scoreboard were not. The name of the Young Boys' then stadium, "Wankdorf", preceded the current club name. I fear that the spread of English vernacular by football fans has reduced the opportunities for such unintended and innocent amusement.

SP99 recalls with fondness the Yodelling Course he attended in 1972. He just never gets the opportunity to use this undoubted skill anymore.

 

[swee'pea99]

tb actually won a yodelling contest without ever having attended a course or indeed had training of any description. It was all due to an unfortunate incident involving a zip.

 

[Toshiba Boy]

SP99 has never actually been to Switzerland, but he does carry his Swiss Army knife everywhere with him, and still waits with baited breath, the opportunity to use the implement for getting stones out of horses hooves.

 

[Dayvo]

TB was a proud scout as a lad, and still toda, at every opportunity, he just can't resist the temptation to say 'dib dib dib, dob dob dob' and put two fingers to his head!
