Cold Ale - The Blokes' Thread!

[prendrelemick]

They're re-showing it over here as well, starting this week. I can't help thinking it is very close to what really goes on.

Hair?

Speaking of hair and the current discussions and associated poles on what attracts us, I recall someone commenting on running the fingers through hair.

Have you stopped to wonder what it must have been like for the '70s guy trying to break through the V05 iron curtain?
It's no wonder that the ozone looks like Swiss cheese!
For example, where would a bloke even begin to rake through these examples:

I just saw this show last night and it had me laughing harder than I've laughed in some time. You Brits have comedy down. lol.

Darcy, look out for those four bears...we'd hate to lose a musical genius!
I got a kick out of your music.

Thank you Gilliat. That means a lot to me. Thank you.

Bad news about the Olympics today. The Beach Volly Ball Ladies may have to wear clothes if the weather doesn't improve in time.

This time British weather, you've gone too far!

[Gilliatt Gurgle]

haha!
I was about to throw in the Olympic towel upon reading your sad forecast, but wait...not all is lost my friend!
We still have women's wrestling, syncronised swimming and...trampoline!

Aye, we've much better chance at a wardrobe malfunction with these events.

Hi Gilliatt,

I posted about running fingers through hair and this is the kind that I was thinking of. No V05 here and get that kid's smile at the end.

What kind of miscreant throws carpet tacks on the road during a bicycle race? Hats off to Bradley Wiggins for recognizing the unfairness of the situation and slowing the pace. That’s a true sportsman right there.

I'm afraid that this is not something new: I know from first hand experience how royally peeved you get when you suddenly find yourselves with tacks in both tires... Just when a lot of other riders start hollering about the same thing. Anyone trying that stunt is in line for a proper arse warming if the cyclists manage to catch him, that's for sure.

Indeed.

I hope he wins because with a name like Bradley Wiggins there has to be some compensation in life.

The Tour has been good so far. Wiggins and the Sky team seem to have a good grip on it. Did you see the man in the duck suit on the hill on Saturday? And the flare wielders on Friday? They do get a bit excited.

Hello Emil, I now recall that being your remark.
That smile is priceless and those fingers, I'd rather they run through my hair!


I haven't been following the tour.
I'll check up on the current status.

I have to admit I laughed when reading that. I wouldn't do it of course, but somehow it gave me a giggle.

Is anyone going to any of the events? I'll be an armchair spectator.

The rain is very much halting the growing process at the moment - except for the weeds! This is the wettest summer on record so far. All the gardeners down the allotment are complaining about the slow growth - except for the potatoes.

There's also going to be ructions in the allotment society soon. Our site wants to break away from the other two whom we see as unproductive and less committed. We anticipate an extraordinary meeting being called. I'll keep you chaps informed of developments. (I never knew the Allotment Committee would be so - I was going to say exciting, but I'll go with interesting).

There's a movie in this: The Milton Street Secession.

I see Rushdie writing the screenplay. I'm thinking Scorsese for director, to really get us in there amongst the runner beans. I have Timothy Spall in mind to play you, Paul. I have no idea if there's any physical resemblance, but I feel he could express your spade-wielding insouciance.
