Cold Ale - The Blokes' Thread!

Did they forget to tell you that you don't carry the hip flask on your hip? You have to tie it with a bit of long string and carry it along with the other treasures

Cunning.

It's a small one with no carry strap or anything. No problem at the allotment as I have voluminous pockets. Anywhere else I'll be able to conceal it about my person very carefully from Mrs Paulclem. I like to have pockets, though her uncanny intuition and sense of smell may find me out.

I was only going to pop a bit in the coffee. Imagine being ejected from a swanky coffee shop though for hip flask misdemeanors. I would be disowned - or worse.

Australian homage to Ricky Ponting ;

As I was going up the stairs
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away.

On the subject of Xmas I asked Mrs J what she would really like more than anything. She thought deeply for about two seconds and replied " A widow's pension "

Masterful!

Just a note about Jacques Kallis as well - at the end of the India/RSA test series he has now overtaken Tendulkar's average.

Not sure what that says about Kallis if Tendulkar is considered the Bradman of the late 20th/early 21st centuries.

Haha!

She's a good woman, Mrs Jocky.

That's perfect.


I suppose Kallis has quietly got on with his job, while Tendulkar has had 100 million fanatical admirers watching his every move.

And by the way, jolly well played England (polite applause.)

Paul,
Back when I was living from the flask, I came up with a brilliant idea to conceal it.
Clad the flask in leather in such a way that it will appear as a wallet.
When Mrs P gives you the suspicious eye each time you take a snort, quickly shove the flask under your nose, breath in and say "I love the smell of fresh rawhide. Would you like a sniff my darling?"

Try the Eric Morecambe method, Paul. Hide the bottle behind your straight arm and raise it to point at a bird, whilst taking a good swig.

[Paulclem]

Fine ideas chaps. I fear I may have to be more cunning if I'm to spice up my cafe coffee.
I have to confess that Mrs Paulclem is psychic and has practised witchcraft in the past.

Doesn't that apply to all women?

I fear so.

My mrs P's psychic abilities are flawed, she "knows" I'm up to something, when I'm not (honest.)

She's using scrying abilities. You might not be doing it now, but at some point in the future...

[The Atheist]

I fear so.

Why are we heterosexual again?

Haha!

She's two steps in front of you, mate!

You only subconsciously intended to get up to something and she stopped you before your brain could bring it to the front.

Some woman, that.

It is all part of the male tragedy. Personally I blame our less than wise brothers who make a habit of being found out. For my part, in the court of male indiscretions, Mrs jocky has never been able to prove anything, and boy has she got psychic abilities.

Maybe Sounds can help us understand from a woman's perspective...?
Do you sense this reply Sounds?
