We killed the last quorum in the winter of 1976 when it was driven to hunt for food in one of the villages on the estate. I tasted lovely, once roast!

That reminds me - there is a very shy wild animal in your area. Have you also eradicated the last Coypu?

Coypu are/were in Norfolk IIRC. Some 250 miles South of Byegad Towers and further from the Embassy to the Frozen North. We do have Wild (Well escaped from a farm.) Boar in County Durham according to the Wildlife Wardens I bumped into one day on an off road ride.

Don't forget the ikle kangaroos up on't hills.

Reports of my retirement have been greatly exaggerated, I have not amassed a surfeit of lard capable of sustaining me through retirement, so will have to carry on until I am into my 70s .

I will be asking for a leg and back shaver as I am having difficulty. If they come in once a month to keep things nice and trim.
As an incentive they get all the timings to earth stuff a pillow with or spin in to wool and make jumpers out of.

Finding my porridge lumpy this morning I have been contemplating a porridge de lumpy thing that has a thingy in the handle for getting boy scouts out of horses hooves.

I feel almost back to my normal self today after an intensive course of banana and brown source omelette, feel the power pumping through my limbs. Like a super hero I put one of my socks on all by my self glowing with pride at work today I pointed it out to every one the self puled sock, every one was so pressed.

You are in error young Tenderfoot. The gizmo on a knife is for getting Boy Scouts out of Girl Guides.

THE RECOVERY is clearly going well this day ! :wahhey: :dance: :bravo: :highfive:

To what was "every one was so pressed" ?
  • the sock ? - no reports of serious gassing incident being reported on t'news :headshake:
  • the view of the sock ? - no (same reason) :blink:
  • the "self glowing" ? - no reports of radiation leaks either :sad:
  • the "pride at work today " - well, what goes on behind closed doors :blush: is surely not for public consumption

The People** have a right to know !

.. but in this case. are prepared to lay down their rights for the overall health and well-being of the nation :thumbsup:

:heat:

**being, like Lord BG, not one of the proletariat 'People', I really don't give a toss but will fight to their death anyone who disagrees ... :ninja:

Scoosh does that mean that your family are immigrants like the Byegads?

We came over with Guillaume le bâtard in 1066.

Bloody Normans coming over here and stealing the country. etc. etc.

I know that my family are immigrunts. They left Persia, went to Turkey, then Russia, over to A Merica then back to Yurup and from Russia into Germany. My great grandfather travelled a lot. My grandfather was a tram driver in Koln. I have lost my umlaut.

My uncles all had itchy feet, but it was not because of self plulled socks, or because they lost their umlauts.

I think I still have my accent grave, the other accent is a cute.

:eek: Immigrants ??? !!!!! :angry: [splutter, splutter ...]
We might have started soon after 503 AD, more likely 13th Century, have an ancient and 'interesting' history, come from the braes of Balquihidder (or these ones !) in Perthshire, and still have an officially-recognised clan chief (which is not my family :thumbsup:).

Our rallying point is Creag an Tuirc - the Boar's rock, so called because, if the sun/moon is in the right direction, there is/isn't a 'y' or maybe even an 'r' in the month ... and a suitable quantity of a certain water-based spirit beverage has been consumed - through the narrow slits of the partially-opened right eye ... one could be forgiven for thinking that the rock might be a boar ...

No 'grunts here - immi or otherwise :becool:
