Just a note to say 'Congratulations' to DavieB of this parish in becoming a Grandad yesterday when his daughter Lydia gave birth to Amelia.

Perhaps I should not have foiled the plans of the Domestic Overlord and the Keepers at Exmoor Zoo, when they wanted to lock me away in an enclosure on Saturday, at least I would be looked after..........

It's OK during term time, but the roads are a nightmare in the school holidays.

This evening spent a happy hour with partner of daughter showing my embryo N gauge.

He looked interested,
this was couple of months after I suggested a visit to local show,

Don't let your daughter see you're referring to her loved one as a monkey, Malcolm
Bodily harm may be the end result

Now now, Mick ... I think we need to determine if anyone in this tale comes from Hartlepool first ...   

[Bealman]

Originating as I did not far from Hartlepool I resemble that remark.

Re. My car problem on the angry thread, I took it back to guy who did the job, and he was cool. Ordered the part required, and fixed it on the spot.

Hence I'm on the happy thread... there are still some honest cowboys out there.

I believe that they are all Cowboys, it's just a matter of the colour of the horse.
My mate John wanted a wall skimmed, so got a local lad in to do it. He said"I don't want any Cowboys on this job, sonny. By the way, what's your name" the lad said, "Shane". He didn't understand why John thought it funny.

THIS IS TRUE - I once called a builder in to do a job. The first words he said when he arrived (after the usual 'good mornings' etc.) were "Where can I put my horse?"
He meant sawing horse, but I did have to smile! He actually made a very good job of it I'm pleased to say.
