Do you think you could actually "buy" the Management like that?

*pushes the money under the counter swiftly*

However, it might help you keep the thread open for a little longer...

Lets see what Google translater makes of that one, eh

*at a complete loss* Um, is there a certain language that only men can understand?:confused:

I'm quite upset that you feel offended so to cheer you up I have a little Irish joke for you.

Taking a wee break from the golf circuit, Tiger Woods drives his new Buick Rendezvous into an Irish petrol station. An attendant greets him in a typical Irish manner, unaware who the driver is.."top o'the mornin to ya".

As Tiger gets out of the car, two golfing tees fall out of his pocket.

"So what are those, son?" ask the attendant.

"They're called tees," replied Tiger.

"And what would ya be usin 'em for, now?" inquired the Irishman.

"Well, they're for resting my balls on when I drive," replied Tiger.

"Aw, Jaysus, Mary and' Joseph!" exclaimed the Irish attendant. "Those fellas at Buick think of everything!"

For our Antipodean members I would draw attention to an item in my evening newspaper headed "Topless pub ' insult to our troops.' " It would appear that the Kersbrook Tavern in Adelaide plans to introduce topless barmaids on Australia's rememberance day as a boy's treat to boost business. Veterans have said it is an affront to Anzac Day's annual national memorial to the fIrst World War. What are the members views on topless barmaids?

I don't see a problem with it at all. Will there be a topless lawnmower race afterward?

Of course I would like a view.:D

Soldiers object to topless barmaids!? What is the world coming to?
I'm sure the young soldiers wouldn't object. :)

I hope Aunty peggy, the septagenarian barmaid at our local doesn't get any ideas!

If any of the members are in Adelaide on Anzac day and don't which of the city's pubs is the Kersbrook Tavern, it will be the one with a two mile queue outside.

I was just thinking that! A bit of tenderloin grilled to perfection, a loaf of homemade bread, a wee bit of salad smothered in Italian dressing and french-fried onions . . . my mouth is watering already.
PS- somebody throw a few pounds of sweet corn out back for that pesky little deer, and make sure nobody bothers him for a few weeks. ;)

I couldn't find any sweet corn, but we can see if this corn,

:lol: talking about dark boards and skewers today, eh?

I love Kababs; and those are the skewers I use, Bien, disposable with no cleanup; easy!

Hang on a minute, you mean people (females) go into shops and actually assess the relative merits of different types of skewer?
04-25-2009, 04:42 PM

I guess so...I was thinking that they were just sticks...with a pointy end that wouldn't splinter in my mouth. I'd probably prefer stainless steel that are reusable...but that's that...

[QUOTE=Michael T;710652]Those are too small for some of the critters we catch that have wandered into The Blokes' Thread!

I was about to say something highly amusing about this post but we musn't give the moderators ( mostly feminine ) a chance to close down the Blokes' thread.

Good thing that apple kept the screaming down. It would have been hard to have a decent conversation. :D
