Happy New Year Year

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Happy New Year Year

#1 Post by Phil P »

Happy New Year to all the 'Iron Weavel Fighters' out there. May your Mig wire never run out and your tin snips stay sharp.

Right enough of this sentimental crap where's the bloody Jim Beam gone. Margaret.....Margaret......what the bloody hells this? I don't believe it.....4 cans of Kestrel Super. Hmmmm........after three of these I might just go round and give Mrs Warbouys one! On second thoughts I think I'll drink it myself. Happy New....er....er.....oh bugger it wish it yourself! Oh God the bloody phones going now. 4291....what!...no I don't any bloody compensation but you will matey if you keep ringing me!!

New Year eh? Perhaps that's why some moron has just sent last month's wages into the sky with a bang and a flash. The dog is NOT impressed!

I wish everyone a successful, prosperous and healthy 2014 and may many projects be completed and new ones bought. I suspect I will fail on those last two somehow!

Terry - I thought John's avatar was a picture of his torso :shock:

Resolution number 1: Try to get back down to a sensible 16st from my current 17st4. :oops:

I believe that the solution is to take less blackcurrant cordial in my rum. I'd best go back to the bar now and buy myself one with a smaller amount of juice to my nip, call it a diet starter eh! :mrgreen:

Does walking to the bar count as exercise?

Probably, but that would mean getting out of my chair and risking a major face plant so I'll just drive from table to bar. Oh bugger! Seems that I've run the chair battery right down on the way to the pub, probably because I was using lights, boombox and seat heater on the 1/4 mile route from home to watering hole. And I had a 12st passenger in my lap. :x

Any forum members currently in the Greys care to push please? No? Aww feck! :lol:

Looks like I may have to stay all night then. :mrgreen:

1: That would be a subjective matter and I wouldn't want to offend anyone.
2: Yes, only a year or two older than me so plenty of good service left in it yet.
3: I'm a little out of practice, how does one tell these days? :mrgreen:

It's easy to tell the difference these days: tell them a sad story about how a kitten had a bad accident, fought long and hard to recover and eventually died after being hit by a car. It the person bursts into tears, they are male!
