2002. I was a late adopter.

I had a woman with her tits out as my screensaver and I mainly scoured eBay for tat and looked at, um, tits.

Obviously I’ve grown up now and have settled down with a lovely lady and an expensive iPhone. When I look the internet now it’s simply to scour everywhere for tat and look at tits.

The lovechild of a Whyte PRST-1 and an Ellsworth whatever.

It’s strangely beautiful.

This is still one of the best bits of internet I’ve seen:

Reminds me of:

Miserable another day!

No they are not.

The more I think about it, the more problems it fixes.

Happy Birthday!

That really does look incredible. Well done!

Nice one, thanks. Good luck!

I’d rather live in it than Kelly Brook’s undergarments, let alone my place.

Sigh

If you can get to Leeds you’re welcome to borrow a Stihl long reach hedge trimmer with additional extension bar and about half a dozen batteries.

Will totally **** up your back using it though.

Not a clue.

Mate, your last thread title was about UFOs.

A pair of slippers that have a rubberised sole so I can go outside in them

Details please.

I love you, Poop.

That’s not a lot of help, but I do nevertheless.

Anyone with a shotgun licence?

Well it hasn’t found a mate and it’s just there screeching its head off from just after sunrise, every day.

I’m starting to think it’s a bit broken in the head.

Yes! Thank you so much @trail-blazer. Amazing that you got it despite my terrible description.

And thanks everyone else 🙂

Nothing like a an internet pile-on when someone makes a decision that in retrospect might be unwise to confess to.

If FF was 6′ 3″, stood in front of you and looking likely to thwap you, would you accuse him of being a moron? 😃

When I lived down south quite a lot of the armed officers around Gatwick airport were members at the gym.

Flying squad?

Can I just second the “don’t get too many plants”.

I’ve had my pond three years now and have pulled most of the plants out. I’m no expert so won’t comment on specifics but so many spread it was ridiculous. One that was a kind of mint was a particular sod. The ‘reed’ type thing pictured was tiny when I bought it, and it’s still in its basket, but it spreading like a bugger – I’m leaving it though as the frogs love hiding in it, but an example of how something initially about 5″ wide and a few fronds can spread.

Forgive the liner/general appearance – I’ve done some remedial levelling and clearing of wild flowers around the pond, which were a bloody terrible idea in hindsight – I’ve  realised wildlife/wildflower areas are for those with fields or huge gardens they can allow to neglect.

Thanks but definitely dance/trance and, thinking about it, the whole video may have been animated.

Thanks! Funnily enough I was sat out there last night and a moth flew straight into the water, so I scooped it out.

It then flew straight back in.

And a third time.

Possibly mentioned this before but I’ve never bought a fish, and yet I have half a dozen that absolutely love to sunbathe. They’re getting bigger too.

Also spotted a froglet a few weeks ago, so there appears to be some kind of agreement in place.

People will not be pleased today.

A sparrow.

Just to update this, it not a nest.

It’s one bird.

One jeffin’ loud bird.

Strangely there are signs a nest was there this year, but not now.

Just him.

And his favorite spot is on the gutter outside my window.

And he’s still there. Even as I type. His whole purpose in life appears to be just to tweet endlessly from the front of my house. In the same spot.

For hours. Every day. From 5am.

Don’t mess with a chicken though.

Once you pop…

Rusks anyone?

Sorry for using words. Halifax? Or Holmfirth?

I’ve insured with Saga this year FFS. I’m only 45 but the missus (named driver) is a touch older, which brings me in scope apparently.

It’s expensive compared to last year, but a lot of quotes were  (I’ve always been a zero excess person and nobody will entertain that now – £250 min and average probably £350. Car’s only worth £5/6k!).

That said, the cover is proper – no weaselly shitty amounts or conditions and some great features like private treatment if ever in a car accident up to:

Or pounds.

Still, **** SAGA!
