What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

A vegan tried to tell me that selling meat is disgusting.

I replied selling vegetables is grocer.

Now now, you know cavcraft is in charge of the terrible pun department round here.

The tip near me had a load of 3" stainless milk type pipe and proper formed bends poking out of the scrap bin the other day. I tried swapping it for the same weight in batteries but he wasn't having any of it!

 

That said I was negotiating with some strange lad who's always looking for heavy things to lift for people, when they try and help he says "YOU SHOULD SEE WHAT I CAN LIFT IN THE GYM" and it all gets a bit Purple Aki so TBH I was happy to get out alive.

Did it not occur to you that it might not be their Saxo?

First thought was that they were fixing it, if so fair play to do such a big repair on the roadside, second thought it's been abondoned (seems quite a regular occurance) and they are taking some useful bits of it, whichever it was they must have been on it for quite a while .

A few years ago the Auckland parking was so bad that "they had to do something ".

Little did the public know what the future would bring.

"Ere, Bob, you've a towbar on that Rover of yours, doncha?"

 

"Yeah, why?"

 

"Fancy pulling a giant skag needle full of children round central Belfast for a few hours?"

 

"Yeah, why not? Might get me out the house."

Isn't parading a needle around addicts the same as parading a massive bottle of whisky around alcoholics ?

 

Well, that's what I was thinking too... the 'Injecting Hope Into Society' tagline also seemed a wee bit... off.

 

I'm guessing these are professionals who know what they're doing, but it did seem a little...

I’m on the cover of 2cvgb news this month.

 

Are you the fella who looks like Hagrid?

On the train and some plonker has a screaming toddler. I have large headphones are on and it's still intrusive.

Without making myself known I shouted 'shut up'. It only bloody worked and it's deathly silent now.

Toddlers like that should be made to sit outside.

I was filling our battered 2006 v70 the other day. A young lady in her thirties rocked up in a 2018 audi jeep thing (Q2?) and proceeded to put a fiver in. A fiver!

She couldn't look me in the eye as she walked past and I couldn't get the massive grin off my face.

The most recent episode of Fags, Mags and Bags - Radio 4 sitcom set in a Glaswegian cornershop. Listen again from last week, or catch tomorrow's episode:

I sometimes have this on the way home from work. Very hit-and-miss comedy* for me; some of it just isn't funny.

My Dad used to do that.

Nope, which is something I consider myself very lucky about.

I woke up this morning, and smashed my bathroom up.

I went for a drive. I crossed the border into England and rain happened. That's backwards.

A friend is unwell, so I visited him to have a nice chat and ogle the amazing interior of his Austin 12.

He lives not far from Longbridge, so thought this should occur. Notice the broken barrier.

Some sweetener anger occurred. Sorry. That's a definite grump!

London was achieved, though thankfully, there was blissfully little of this. In fact, through 240 miles of driving, I barely came to a halt. Amazing!

I'm now near Mill Hill, trying to unwind. Tomorrow, photoshoots in London and Sussex. Thursday, another phootshoot and back home to see how much more of the house has been trashed. We're having internal wall insulation fitted. For free!

Look at that MG! Also the upturned thing in the middle on the ground looks like Britchod.

It does look british, doesn't it?

 

coil-sprung wishbone front suspenders at any rate.

I think you're right, the suspension seems to match and the grille has horizontal bars so probably a sprite.

Looks like a reject cover pic for Back Street Heroes.

I tend to enjoy it even when it's not lol funny - but I genuinely thought the most recent episode was decent all the way through. Then again, after some of the shit they broadcast on radio 4, the bar is pretty low.

After 2 interviews, with a combined panel of 7 people over 5 hours, and an honourable mention of Autoshite as an interest outside of work, I have been offered, and accepted a new job today.

 

Its on good money, closer to home, with a brilliant view and working for a really promising looking company.

 

I reckon it was AS that clinched it! They did laugh, and said they'd go off and have a look at it, so be on your best behaviour you lot!
