Yes, the ladies are very amenable, I mean amiable.

My finest moment was a 100-man brawl in the Mighty Fine pub in Portsmouth started by my mate when he insulted a dwarf hooker. (I kid you not )

It's always the same when a sailor starts on the shorts

I had to leave that in isolation, i was proud of it. Hey, what was that number? I'm tempted to ring it to find out

That's classic

Try the number and see

I left a message asking him to ring me when he got back from Cliff Richard's gaff in Portugal, or visiting Ruth Turner in Holloway.

Just reading that bureacracy thread you started reminded me of a marvellous little number we had round this way at one time.

South Oxfordshire District Council were looking for an update on their image. (This was pre-housing associations, so they WERE just a council) They had quite cleverly, years before, incorporated the famous White Horse of Uffington into their corporate logo, stealing a march on their rival, The Vale of The White Horse council.
S.O.D.C vans were resplendant in their livery of the white horse on a green downland background.
This was the late 80's though, and they needed to be more forward looking, they needed a go-get image, they needed to re-brand. So they called in some high powered image consultants, and threw a hefty part of the next year's budget at them. (Figures of close on £100,000 were banded about) Emptying the bins could wait, this was vital work.

Sooooooo, after around 6 months of power lunches, blue-sky meetings and market research, the image consultants pocketed their loot and left the results on S.O.D.C's desk.

A green horse on a white background!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I kid you not. Someone in the council must have thought........oh crap, they're going to kill us. A few vans were painted up, the local outcry was (as is to be expected) vocal, and tending on rabid at times. The idea was dropped, the vans were repainted, rates went up.........everyone happy then.

Arrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhh Sarcasm thread

We could develop a whole new language here.

"Well, this morning I had a post 76 before post 135'ing the post 34, but I forgot to untangle the post 765. Oh post 23.

I'm not sure I can continue to associate with a member of the oppressing elite.

Hey, give us a break........there's a storm.

My finger was halfway to the yikes button when your new friend posted that darned link again

http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F16034?thread=3832232&latest=1 Spreading confusion at every turn. Our work here proceeds apace

I see someone else has got it as a tag too. We could be on to something here

Who else has got it? Are they breaching copyright?

Can't remember where i saw it, but someone off the original thread has 'Post 23, post 23'
