Cold Ale - The Blokes' Thread!

[Emil Miller]

Daughter number three brought home her new boyfriend t'other day. He's a lumberjack - seems like a decent feller.

Ah well, somebody had to do it.

I love that one Is the mother/daughter thing something alot of men go for?
Well it beats buy one get one free in the supermarket.


Is this for real? What does a person do with those?

I could imagine a number of things most guys would do with them.

Maybe mother/daughter teams are alittle better of a deal than father/son...the last fellow I spent time with had a father who was rather amusing, and somewhat good looking...when he wasn't walking backward
I guess you could hook them up to one of those constant movement contraptions and put them on your desk.

It's an odd one; I know it's quite popular.

I also know a lot of men have a thing for their mother-in-law, which is genetically probable, I imagine. Heck, Sigmund Frood made a whole career out of that stuff.


Now twins....

(This thread's going to get into trouble if we keep this tack up!)

Ah yes, twins might be better; Hefner really seems to be into that. What freaks me out is that the twins seem to often be more into each other

So is he a big fellow or small and wiry? Don't think I'd like those rough hands on my soft skin...

Love that one...

Hey, has JOcky ran off again?

[Paulclem]

I have acquired a new half of an allotment and with it two - that's TWO new sheds. Well when I say shed, one of them is called Ivy cottage. It has a certain period charm.

My other new shed is... not so new either.

I don't want to give you lads and ladies the impression that I'm becoming an allotment magnate, gradually taking over the "real estate" in order to gain huge sell off profits. No, I've just moved from my original allotment piece to one nearest my newest on my side of the lane. I still only have one allotment. it's just one that is in two halves separated by Fred's allotment in the middle.

Here's the newest acquisition.

As you can see, there's a bit of work to do on it.

Also, on Thursday, I'm off to the Annual AGM of the allotment site in a club not too far from here, (The Standard Triumph Club no less - a relic of the once booming car industry here in coventry, though the last time I was there it did smell a bit damp - and not a nice beery damp either).

I'm expecting an uprorious night with the old geezers moaning and complaining at the committee. I should have a tale or two when I get back - especially as I suggested to a couple of committee members that I propose a vote of thanks for the committee. I might have been tarred and feathered by the time i get back.

Now those are what I call Real Sheds, rat's nests underneath, swallows in the rafters, Ivy inside and out, unlabelled bottles of long banned pesticides on the shelves, rusty implements for wattaling up yer brindles and spliceing yer corms. Marvellous!


I'm quite jealous.

All I need is an old armchair and a radio and I'm away.

I like the effort to spruce up the second shed - gives it a bit of artistic zing with the flower on the side.

Looks like it, but now I have a good hunch where he's hold up!

Paul,
Be cautious when opening that door, you're likely to find a drunken Scotsman inside.

I think I saw that first shed in Rambo. The only problem with that is that things in Rambo last 10 seconds before exploding so it must be a different shed.

You're right. I'll take a pointy stick with me and jab it in a few times.

It does have a previously exploded look about it.

What a thread this is where a man can comfortably come and talk about his sheds without fear of ridicule.

I love the external cladding held on by string. (shed 2) Very innovative.

I'm sure Gilliat has already spotted it and is pitching it to a client right now.

The second one could be entered for the Turner Prize. It would look great at the Tate Modern and is certainly more interesting than this exhibit.

Agreed. There is an air of desperation about the second shed. I'll have to give it a proper name.

That looks exactly like my yard and laundry room; how do doors wind up 2 inchs below your soil line? That land looks like a good bit of work; what are you planning to do with it?

Yep, exactly like my laundry room...do you have that unique smell you get when there's a bit of water and the occasional small animal hauls up inside?

Looks like it, but now I have a good hunch where he's hold up!

Ah ha...you know, I think this time Parker and he are both there...Atheist, have you seen Parker in a while?

No doubt, Parker has probably brought his entire cache of liquor in there.

This is an exhibit? It looks like something from Liberaces girl scout days.
