I knew a guy who never cut his toenails unless he was going on a first date.
Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine...

[QUOTE=soundofmusic;1034446]I don't know whether it is just bad luck; but I haven't ever met a man who was easily separated from his wallet. I find the only way is too ply them with liquor, put them to bed, promise them a night of wild antics, then make off with their trunks when they are snoring away the next morning, though usually, the belt buckle clinking gives you away....

No, no. Before it. In the bathroom. While rehearsing his lines.
Parker, will you do a round for the gentlemen, please. And whatever ladies may have, how to put it, strayed in. On my tab. Hey, don't give me that look. I've owed you more in the past and I did pay it back, didn't I? Start pouring. Chop-chop.

Why that is very kind of you Doc, I don't mind if I do, make mine a double Glenmorangie on the rocks. Aaah! that was good. Er, are you sure you have cleared this with Parker ? I have heard from a very reliable source that the last fellow who tried to rip him off was found bound and decapitated on the outskirts of Aukland. Cheers
The weather has been very strange in Jockland of late, the sun has actually been shining. I have been able to relax in the recliner in the back garden , with a cold beer, watching Mrs Jocky mowing the lawn. She is very good at it and I always encourage her by shouting the immortal phrase, Darling, you've missed a bit. Ouch! what was that for ?
" There are few more impressive sights in the world than a Scotsman on the make. "
That sounds too personal to be a "my friend" story!
Jolly decent of you!
I'm having the same, good choice. I hope Doc knows how much this all costs!
That is nothing but malicious rumour! The fact his will had just been changed to the benefit of The Blokes' Club was entirely coincidental.
Sun in Scotland?
It's giving you respite before the Gulf Stream dies off and Scotland reverts to glaciation.
Mrs Jocky will cope - she can pull the wood on a sled.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

I'll have the same too seeing as we haven't used up the bequests fund.
Checking in.
That last round Doc ordered up was mighty good, but it has me seeing double...no make that seeing deca's. Have you blokes noticed all the Fahrenheit 451 entries under general Literature?
What's the latest coming out of the allotments Paul?
I reckon I better sign off for tonight.

The broad beans haven't done well - put in too late with all the hot wearther we've been having here. The driest for 100 years or so.
The potatoes, on the other hand are doing great.
I've still got quite a bit to dig in the new half, but I've got lettuce, kale, beetroot and cabbage in there now.
It is looking very untidy, as the grass has grown quite big, but I'll be strimming it this weekend hopefully.
