What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[Guest Hooli]

Stupid brother just called, apparentlly he sold his Moto Guzzi yesterday, put the money in his overall zip pocket and went home.

This morning remembered the cash was still there, uncharacteristicly his wife had seen overalls on the porch floor and washed them!image.jpeg

 

Looks like that scene from lock stock

[Guest Hooli]

Just driving past the curry's clearance shop in Manchester

 

From the other side of the shop I saw a nice TV reduced to £979 , thought , that looks nice

Who pays 10k for a TV

 

 

You do, or at least the NHS does on your behalf. We've got an 80" £8k TV slung on a wall about 20ft up so no one looks at it displaying a few crap slides in the main entrance. We laughed & said 'WTF?' when told it was coming but it seems the board think it's worthwhile...

Oh yes, hit shite gold on freegle. You know its going to be good when you get an email like this through:

His wife was heard saying "I thought you said we were getting into money laundering"

I've come in from work more times than I care to mention, chucked clothes in washer and gone shopping only to find - no wallet

Gone back home and found wallet in the trousers in the washing machine.

Oxblood leather wallet - cash stained orange as a Trump.

Back to shop, pay for shopping with card and send the cash off to the B of E to be credited to my account.

Not done it recently as I now have a plastic wallet that doesn't bleed dye when it gets wet so no need to launder it.

Far too much TV time....

Last night I caught a rerun of Graham Norton's show from Friday night and couldn't be arsed to reach for the remote, so I watched it.  First guest, Jamie Oliver.  Looking exactly like John Travolta in Pulp Fiction!   Then there was this wrestler on, who's in some new fillum... who smiled just like Buster Keaton used to, or possibly Joe E. Brown in Some Like It Hot.  It was almost worth staying awake!

It's also a fake pic as there is no one that slim in rotherham

[barefoot]

My new neighbour is called Dr Torque.

 

 

 

 

 

Sadly, it's spelled 'TALK'.

[DodgeRover]

It's also a fake pic as there is no one that slim without an ankle tattoo in rotherham

[DeeJay]

It's probably a tattoo of a tracker.

Not sure if it's been posted but this near fuckin finished me off today, sorry for the Daily Fail symbol 

 

[pandamonium]

That's fucking brilliant. ^^^

 

My happy thing today is seeing my little boy in his Xmas play. He was a narrator and was the first on stage, so proud of him.

 

In other news, the Corolla is still plodding on faultlessly, having now racked up 1300 miles in about a month. 

[Fumbler]

Jazz approaching 79000 miles. It also will be the berfday of Colin. Please, donate ConkA

I’m just back from Christmas drinks at the big house. Now having a proper drink! Nibbles were very nice again- lots of proper pork crackling. Once again I was the only one of my neighbours to walk up the drive - one even stopped to offer me a lift. Perhaps taking the 2cv would have raised the tone of the parking amongst the range rovers and bentleys?

 

Anyway, posh card time...

 

Is it a bird, is it a plane? Well yes, it’s a personal flypast over buck house.

Today I have been dangerously close to Hairnet, watching Musical Offspring graduate from RNCM:

 

 

No really, it's just something in my eye... 

[richardmorris]

It’s quite late in the year ( mine was in the summertime ) or are the terms an odd sequence with music? Anyway you must be proud ( and he looks happy too). Was it a PhD now?

Apart from the abuse victims?

He's the last of his high school pals to graduate, apart from his friend Natalia who also did four years at RNCM!  He's just completed the first term of a Masters in Musical Performance at Guildhall.

The fun you would take a picture of you with your knob hanging out just above that photograph. I don't want to see it, I hasten to add.

He lives in a slightly bizarre part of the world, so that type of thing is ironically normal!
