3 Men and the mystery of the split condom

I did hear that the surgeon who performs hip replacments is the 'coolest' guy in the hospital.

Yeah, thanks for the invite mate. You still owe me a pint of the black stuff btw.

Refraction: HTH

Well done h, very well done indeed. I knew a chap (passeda way sadly) who ran the very first London marathon. His recollection of every step of every mile made my muscles tighten, you should be rightly proud. Would you do it again?

IT'S A SCOOTER :vom: Okay it's a 200, but ffs SL it is not a bike! As I sais previously my biggets ever bike was a measly CB200, but I am a wee bit embarassed by that fact, whereas scotter boy who owned that one above would be considered top dog. Ergo, where scooter's peak, bikes are just starting to get interesting. That thing would be hard pushed to keep up with a narrow boat imho.

I am a big fan of Ringwood Best and if it's on the pump it's in my glass, don't care what else is available I just love the stuff. Spent a short break in Hampstead Village a couple of years back and after a guided walk we stopped in some gastro-Pub, who only sold TT. I only had a pint cos it was all they had, what a pleasurable experienc e that was and thankfully I have not yet found a pub that selld them both as I would be forced to choose between the two. A truly perfect pint of Ale. Incidentally, and I wish the girls a long and happy life, if and when either Jackie or Joan Collins passes away, get yourselves up to the little cemetary in Hampstead Village and tak eoyur cameras. It will be packed to the gunnels with celebes as they have a reserved family plot there.

I just got back from the pub. A bloke offered me eight legs of venison for twenty quid. Is that too dear?

What a strange question, people might think you've really lost it now SL!! Mudguards! I ask you! Re the Moto Guzzi 'dream'; I worked once with this lad, Eddie his name was, and like me and many other ex-bikres, he had always dreamt of owning one of their famous toureres. He saved up for months, didn;t come out on the beer, even gave up smoking, just to get enough money together to buy his very own Moto Guzzi. He bought one and booked a weeks leave to become acquanted with his new mistress. He'd only had it for that one week when the boss came into the staff room on the Monday morning to tell us that Eddie wouldn't be in that day. His dream bike had leaked oil all over him and a 1/4 mile stretch of the A258. He had been so excited before picking the beast up that he never really got over the embarassment of buying a duff one, and sad to say he never returned to that job, and no-one ever saw Eddie again. Strange really, as he is the only person I have ever known who has owned one. Come on then SL, what would be your ugly 'beast' bike? The one that announces your arrival more than any other bike. Unaldulerated testosterone-machine?

I know the feeling Gaffer, everytime my brother even mentionshis tortoises my eyes water. And they certainly are not herbivores, I have the (mental) scars to prove it. That was infact a true story, honestly.

As you haed towards Bishops waltham from Fair Oak it's just to the right of Upham.

...and end up with at least one 10mm nut left over. Hoping that it's just from a battery strap or the chain guard off we ride into the sunset, but at the back of your mnd from that moment on is that burning worry that it might just have been from the big end or chain tensioner. I once stripped down my little RD80 and ended up with a piston ring left over! I did of course put it back in, but was very tempted to see how it cope without it. For my unlimited bike I want to ride on the back of one of those absolutely ridiculous CBX thingies just so tnat I can tell the Grandkids that I did. Actually I lie, I would have to go for a GoldWing, take it across europe ully kitted out with every conceivable extra including a stereo and blast out Steppenwolf as I do so. Born to be Wiiiiiillllld. And why is it, that whenever you see one GoldWing, you see about 20 of the bloody things? One of the few bikes that it is not worth moving over for, they need a whole lane to themselves. Obviously I am joking about the GW. can you imagine if I dropped one, people would just walk past never knowing that little old me was under the bloody thing. I'll settle for a Pillion ride on the CBX.

My first ever 45. I'm walking backwards to Christmas on the B side iirc? I do hope that you can back up my little tale of the tortoise atack gaffer, as you will k now just how feverishly they can tuck their food away in preparation for winter hibernation. We used to spend hour upon hour rubbing olive oil into their shells when they woke up in the spring too. People also do not believe me when i tell them that tortoises can climb wire fences, we had one habitual ascappe who would climb our 4 foot fence and just drop down on the other side. My litle bruv has loads, all named after man U players, even more reason for me to hate the little ****ers.

I'll resize it for yer. Where did I put my tomahawk?

If you want to ask if she is hungry you just have to ask her "Bukake?" hth

Puff the magic Dragon? Grocer Jack?

I'll give you a clue: Not so funny now is it?

/\ Just a plain old customer Wilt, nothing more nothing less. In fact, I think it more than fair to recomend a decent posh pub for a change. In my experience the Forge sells decent food which is a bit overpriced, nice 'suppy' beer that is a bit overprced, but the service is good and for once they havea bit of wholesome nourishing proper pub grub on the menu. I would do the same for the River Inn's carvery if it were not for the fact that The Alma in Bishops waltham is cheaper AND better.

I'll give you bloody sausage Deppo. How you fixed for Thursday btw? fancy sharing a thickshake?
