Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[RED-DOG]

I have a penchant for old movie posters.

I happened to catch a glimpse of a Sinatra movie this morning (The Tender Trap) while having breakfast, so I googled "Sinatra posters"

This came up. I think the "Product information" section on the right is fascinating.

Wow. I can't imagine the amount of trouble i would be in with the amount of women i have proposed to on drunken nights out. Nice find.

I'm turning to a parrot.

I keep calling out snatches of TV adverts, doing my best imitation of the actors.

My current repertoire includes:


 "Cake, cake, fee cake"  "Wossa!"  "Budgie smugglers"  "Blueberry and apple"  "and  "Get some nuts".

My parents just had a weekend break in Hunstanton - Mum said she was woken by a cuckoo that sounded like it was just outside their window. Said it was the first they'd heard, and they're reasonably keen twitchers these days.

Apparently went to see some Avocets as well. I had to Google.

Nice.

Did they go to wolferton woods to see the nightjars?

Lawnmower - broke. (I mean no compression, sounds like con rod & piston have fallen into the sump broke)

Piston broke, sounds like an average weekend to me

Wolferton has to be one of the most individual villages in the country, nothing is as it seems.
Seen a Queen, a few Princes but never a Nightjar

Don't think so. I think they stayed right on the coast as apparently it was dry all last Monday when it pissed it down from 1 mile inland.

Who came up with the saying "Anything's possible" and why do we let people get away with saying it?

In future, when they do,  I'm going to recite a long list of things that are not.

Hunstanton. I used to go there every year as a child, and I've some fond memories of the place. I wonder what it's like now...

Got an excellent chippie with the worlds best curry sauce.

Not another shop can beat it, but then again "Anythings Possible"

Sorry Trev. The world's best chippy is in Darnall and has been for the last 35 years. Fact.

No poncy stuff like curry, just fish, chips, peas, oven bottom bread-cakes, real "Make your eyes water" vinegar and cod roe in season.

Sounds like my kind of chip shop.

Does anyone else think chinese curry sauce is the best for chips? I used to have it as a kid as there was a combined chinese takeaway and chip shop near my grandparents, and I've been pleased to see some chip shops offering it as an option.

Chinese didn't exist when I was a kid, and curry was what you did to a horse.

Me and the wife were sat on beach at Hunstanton one sunny afternoon when an arguement broke out on the prom,

Some persons dog had p1ssed on the seafood stand, the stallholder and dog owner started fighting and the young

girl in charge of the donkey rides climbs onto a wall and emptied a bag of donkey shit onto them. CLASSIC.

There is a simple fact of life that Northern Chippies>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>southern chippies! You can obvioulsy refine your arguements from there!

And then that reminds me of, what was quite simply the funniest gag Ive ever heard (watching live comedy). Its funny for several reasons. I was watching pete kay at the Hammersmith Appolo in London (i lived there), wen he told the gag (link below)!  I mean the gag itself is funny for us Northerners, but what gave that "rebound laughter" (for about 5 mins), was the fact that there were tiny pockets of people falling about laughing, and lots of other s not really saying "what did he say"

Laugh.............. I almost had to leave.............. (sorry cant embed - ive linked to correct time in clip)
