Cheers for that PGC.

The next time I play pretend rugby with my made up 15, (named the 'Roaring Boys', the other non-existent 14 weren't keen, but I had the sham casting vote) I'll be sure and certain to visit a load of old cobblers shop and pretend to purchase a tin of saddle soap.

Actually bollocks to all that I'll pretend to nick it and the imaginary shopkeeper can run after me while I show him a clean pair of heels. In my mind the heels are attached to a pair of deep purple Church's brogues. But there I go being fanciful.

Any way where was I? Oh, the imaginary shopkeeper chases me for a few hundred yards, but I outrun him (yea right) and ends up shaking his fist ineffectually at my rapidly disappearing back (yea f@cking right)

Any way I get home all exhausted and that, and what's waiting on the doorstep for me?

Only the new Beatles remastered box set, autographed by all four of the Beatles.

Don't know how they manage it, but I'm glad that they do.

Love Me Do? Not something I'd admit to in mixed company.

Help? I'll have all I can get thanks.

Ticket To Ride? Uncanny, it's like they knew the Oyster card was going to happen.Gives me goosebumps.

Don't you know LB a sense of humour will not get a man anywhere with a girl. A girlfriend/wife is the only person in a man's life who does not find him funny.

That's my experience anyway - these women train themselves to roll their eyes rather than laugh - they get so good at it that it becomes an automatic response to even the funniest things. Its an amazing skill. My wife is really good at it.

Libby, I tip my hat and waggle a glass in your general direction for one of the finest pieces of sarcasm it's been my pleasure to receive.

Skol!

And when someone close to you says "That's funny" accompanied by a tight-lipped smile, where once there was a thrown-back-headed throaty 'come to bed' sort of laugh, it just makes you want to go dancing in traffic, doesn't it?

Or something or other.

Let's see now, soon BBW will be flirting with LibertyFlush and they would be engaged in acts of mutual ...er... admiration. I just wish that this young man would confine his fantasies to the privacy of his top bunk from now on. The musings of an adolescent boy are not really for me...
Let's see now, soon D.M will be flirting with the notion that LibertyFlush would be engaged in acts of mutual ...er... admiration. I just wish that this middle aged woman would confine her fantasies to the privacy of her bathroom from now on. The grabby desperation of an old witch are not really for me...

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
