Comedian, in the wonders of architecture that fence is right up there with the best. Perhaps the women do not appreciate the effort that went into this labour of love, but Jocky recognises genius when he sees it. Cant wait till you build that greenhouse!
Nice fence Comedian and nice touch with the cigar. :D Looks like you did a nice job. What part of the country do you live if you don't mind me asking?Quote:

Comedian- Very nice fence
Those woods where you live are GORGEOUS!
But yeah...Miller light? I'm totally with Niamh on that one
The only acceptable American beer is Sam Adams imo :D
-- alexar: thanks for noticin'. I must admit that were it not for my two lovely children, that fence would be my proudest creation.Quote:

--Niamh: Thanks. I like the fence too. :) And the beer. . .well, I like to drink beer that suits my mood. A warm tavern on a cold winter day, give me hardy ale or stout. A hot summer day after some hard labor & a handful of Doritos (not shown in the pictures) calls for Miller Lite.Quote:
That's a pretty impressive fence! well done Comedian! But Miller Light? seriously?

You will never believe this, but it is as true as I am sitting over this computer. The other night I was looking at the stars and thinking how lucky I was, when all a of sudden this disembodied voice started calling......Jocky...... Jocky, I realised instantly it was God calling me home, what is it you want father? Will you **** off and put Athiest on the line, I have got a big score to settle with him.
First, Comedian, may I compliment you on your beautiful fence? Maybe THAT'S what Wallace Stevens meant in that poem he wrote-what was that? "Anecdote of the Jar"?
Second, :lol:Quote:

Is that where Dubya comes from? Oh the yellow rose of Texas......Duh!

Athiest, I know I can be a pain but I am a big Orwell fan as well. Simon Schama in his History of Britain, does a wonderful comparison between the two Winstons. Dont know if you have seen it but, if not I will try to post it to you. Personally speaking, I think his social commentaries, i.e. The Road To Wigan Pier, are just as important as his novels, he represents all that is good in our country, and yes you have guessed it, he is an athiest.
Fantastic!Quote:

If you haven't read A Clergyman's Daughter, find a copy and read what Warburton says on the subject.
In their place ( I think you ladies know where that is ) I do, but all things areQuote:

Athiest, I have to come clean about the salmon. It was quite difficult to estimate the weight. This may have something to do with the fact it was in a can. :)
At least tell us whether it was a 100, 200 or 400 gr tin!
:p
Scheherazade, without trying to play this down, this may in fact be the biggest can ever recorded. My mates said it could have fed a small country for weeks. :)
