  1. It's not too yuk for the uninitiated IMO The kind of gaffs that sell it are doing a good job of weaning the ignorant ones off of fizzy pop fighting juice. Having said that, I try to avoid these imitation ales and tend towards the Guinness pump as that's alway available. Not that horrible 'ice cold' ****e though but then again it's better than nowt I suppose.
  2. Soda crystals in the cistern repeated after each flush. I used to clean my exhaust using caustic soda but not sure it's deemed safe nowadays, worked a treat though. Those women on tv reckon there's no substitute for marigolds and a damp sponge sprinkled with salt iirc
  3. Pilch, have you considered having a temp dojo? Maybe hold a session in different areas on different evenings ? Does your equipment have to be permanently fixed or could you set it up and removeit after a session? Do you need just a wooden floor or are mats involved? I doubt the place I have in mind would be suitable but very much depend on the above q's.
  4. Hope it's actually his this time. Re-landscaping someone else's garden can be very pricey if you don't have their explicit consent.
  5. Checking the Closomat site i noted a 'Downloads' link!!! Rather disappointingly it just leads to some crappy PDF manuals. I was of course hoping for a gallery.
  6. The correct terminology is 'The Glory Wipe'. If you ever have the opportunity to use a 'Closomat' toilet you should treat yourself, it is the ultimate wc experience. I like to 'go' in works time and even have an app on my phone to tell me how much I have earnt whilst engaged. However, due to some tight-arse at head orifice we get supplied with loo roll that resembles sandpaper, which is not recommended if one has had a certain procedure procedured. For this reason I decided to start using the clients Closomat and have never looked back (literally). I have also inadvertently redressed the lack of pay rise situation by reducing my actual working hours, I'm quids in.
  7. I had some parsnip crisps once, like eating damp cardboard. Stick to potato crisps but avoid salt n vigenar, they sting. The best flavour IMHO is worcestershire sauce. Scampish fries do not taste like vagina btw for any young impressionables out there. Nothing else tastes like vagina so you will have to wait until you're a proper grown up to enjoy it, sorry to disappoint.
  8. John Lennon recommends giving peas a chance.
  9. Just got a text from my mates wife, he is in hospital with food poisoning after eating a daffodil bulb, thinking it was an onion. The doctors have said he will be out next spring.
  10. A duck came into the curry shop that I was in tonight and ordered a house special, the owner spotted he didn't have a wallet so asked how he intended paying. The asked him to put it on his bill, you should have seen the mess and the duck is still in a korma.
  11. Totton's not in Southampton though, surely. Aren't they a village green team, England's biggest village iirc?
  12. Was it not Pearson who managed Saints the night be beat Holloway's Leicester then proceeded to undo the mess that IH left them in following relegation and made Holloway's excuses for relegation look rather silly with an amazing promotion winning season with less resources? Having said that, there is still something that I like about him.
  13. Sue, what about football coaching through the Saints Foundation? Might not pay top whack but I'd guess with your playing background you could be really good at it and youd see the fruits of your labours developing week in week out. Summer camps could be ideal perhaps. Another thought I just had was crewing on yacht delivery charters?
  14. So, once again the worst 3 teams got relegated.
  15. So, we can explain thunder and lightning then can we? I mean, when one considers the weather it's all too easy to discuss it as one off events when in reality one follows another and it's absolutely chaotic in terms of our own understandings. How come it all works out just fine in the vast majority of the time. What or who controls this chaos? And if it only requires basic intelligence to understand and accept it, why can't we super intelligent beings recreate it from nothing? I fear that I ammslowly slipping out of my depth here but cannot deny that what I have experienced has actually happened. I can't ask what others think I should believe I should believe as noone else has experienced it. Is that not enough of an argument in itself?
  16. I find it extremely difficult to go into a pub and not have a beer if they have it on the hand pump. In my defence I would add that I am a bit of a connosieur when it comes to real ales. I (we) are cutting down (again) though as we recently worked out that we were pubbing it three or four times a week, often more Time to take stock and save a few bob into the bargain I think.
  17. Ah, that'll be everyone I know then. Just cos no scientist has yet discovered something does not mean that it does not exist. Sometimes when people don't understand something they automatically dismiss it. It's a foolish approach to life imho.
  18. Was that really Razor Ruddock? Anyone know which park bench he currently calls home? What a great stroll down memory lane that was though eh.
  19. I've got themmall together now so each evening this week and next I shall Start listing them, season by season and competition by cometition.
  20. Define 'mentally ill' then?
  21. Found it, cheers.
  22. Shortly after moving into our current house we realised that something was amiss being a mild cynic I put most of the oddities down to dodgy electrics as most involved lights being on in the morning when theyd been turned off at night. Other irregularities more concerning to me were that two doors in particular were often unlocked when I personally had locked them before retiring. This is a big house with lots of external doors, I religiously check them all every night. This could have been down to one of the family playing a practical joke at my expense and if I am honest, that was my suspicion. We even had somembig rows about it as I eventually had had enough and threatened to leave all thrones wide open all night as revenge. It continued for many months. One day mrs h was Pottering about and a female voice told her to 'get out' when she walked into one of the two rooms that I refer to above. She went to go but turned round and very sternly told the voice/woman 'no, this is our house now, you get out'. The 'dodgy electrics' never played up since and when I lock the doors they stay locked. Mrs h would not lie about this and it half convinced me of 'something' else. Twice recently I have had my own experiences that have left me in absolutely no doubt that spirits (for want of a better term) exist. The first was quite intimate and I have and only ever will talk to mrs h about it. Suffice to say I was literally left speechless and couldn't even bring myself to think about what had happened for many days after it happened. The second occured just last week on a canal bank near a place called Cow Roast when I saw the image of a young woman appear quite literally from nowhere, her appearance was quite notable and she looked straight at me, smiling. I was slightly taken aback as I had just been on the towpath talking to a couple and she definitely WAS NOT THERE when I stepped back onto the boat. I called to her as she walked away and she smiled again over her shoulder, I shouted down into the boat to mrs h but when I looked up again she had disappeared into thin air. All the above accounts are true.
  23. Is it on any sky channels this espn?
  24. Anyone who works with letters, spreadsheets and invoicing on their iPhone, what software do you recommend please? Ideally compatible with MS or OpenOffice as I have quite a few templates drafts that took me a while to compile. I keep being advised to jailbreak my phone, would doing so open my options or even allow me to use the free MS Mobile package? Cheers PS Not restricted to freebies
