Leisurely Scribbles (part 5) (Part 1)

this is strange your post shows you at sending your message at 4pm saying good morning chums whilst here in oz it is now 8pm on the 20/5/17 - Jem we have a time sequence problem here - can you fix it please?

There’s something wrong with the timing on this side too Gummy, for example, if I post at 10.30pm an hour later I look and it says 11.30, there’s a wandering hour floating about when it comes to the end of the day, who knows it could be the ghostly hour, so I leave well enough alone, you can take it up with the management if it upsets you, I’ve got bigger fish to fry.:lol:

I felt a tingle on me upper lip earlier this morning so I quickly put some TCP on a tissue and rubbed it in, best thing for a cold sore if you catch it quickly enough, I was lucky, it stung for a while but stopped the virus dead in it’s tracks. I believe they call it Herpes 2 or something, coming shortly to a cinema near you “Herpes 3”:lol: I really do hate having anything on my lips or in my eyes, there’s nothing as awkward as trying to eat, smoke, or drink with a sore lip.

Talking about lips brought back happy days of when I was a young man, I was a great fan of the Rolling Stones and every Friday in the pub, after a lot of persuasion naturally as I was a shy young man then, I would do my Mick Jagger party piece “It’s all over now”, one didn’t need to be blessed with a good singing voice to do the vocals but it took a little skill to do the strutting around like a Peacock bit when the instrumental part kicked in in the middle of the song. The howls of passion from the females old and young could be heard on the Isle of Man. Eventually I had to pack it in, it was all too much for Phyllis to bear. Had I been as ugly as Mick I could have made a living out it, but love was stronger than the lure of fame and fortune and won out in the end.:smiley:
When my dear old granny first saw a photograph of Mick Jagger all she said was “God bless him, he’s got lovely lips for cooling soup”:lol:

To check you are in the correct Time Zone, go into your Control Panel.

Settings & Options

Edit Options

Scroll down to Time Zone.

Jem :slight_smile: you should have yours set at:

(GMT) Western Europe Time, London, Lisbon, Casablanca

Gummy :slight_smile: not sure which area of Australia you are in but you could check you are on the correct Time Zone towards the bottom of the list.

If you need to amend it, remember to click on ‘Save Changes’ at the bottom of the page.

Hope that will sort things out for you, if not we’ll have to pass the problem to Admin :slight_smile:

Juno what…no?..well,I’ll tell yerz…
Yestiddy was my birthday [19th May]…so,in accordance with The Theory Of General Acceptance,in the nano-second the clock took to move from very-nearly-but-not-quite-midnight,to only-just-after-midnight…I aged a year!!! HTF does that work,then? I may be old ‘n’ physically knackered on the outside…but on the inside,I’m only just approaching puberty! Wanna play with my conkers???

Happy birthday PUG. another year gone.

Conkers aaaah so, conkers were banned as a pursuit for lads years ago & to put a final nail in the Horse Chestnut saga, the actual trees are dying from disease.

Sarsons shares have dropped too.

Thank you kindly Mags, I’ll have a go at that tomorrow.:slight_smile:

First of all a very happy belated birthday Pug dear boy, God you are a dark horse not a mention of it coming around, anyway I knew you were due a birthday sometime this year so I hope you enjoy the chemistry set I sent you, sorry but you’ll notice page 9 is missing from the instruction book as it tells you how to make LSD, not good for little boys, but there’s lots of fun to be had making fizzy drinks and stick bombs. :lol:

Seriously I hope you had a great day Pug.:wink:

When you reach puberty you want to watch out for a spices called ‘Girls’, they can get you into all sorts of trouble.
I used to think that when one reached puberty it meant you could legally go into a pub and get a pint.
Speaking of which i hadn’t had a pint all day so I’ll be taking the missus out in about an hours time, I’ll raise me glass to your health Pug.

my time zone has always been correct just checked so something is going wrong at your end and what with all the weather changes and brexit and all those foreigners you keep letting in wiv der own time zones I am not surprised - you are all too cock as they say. B/stoke of course has always had its own time zone that changes automatically at it’s own will its in a sort of bermuda triangle! Jem are you sure ya setting yours to northern Ireland not southern and as for Pug in Anglia - no such place exists but have a happy non-existent birthday any old ow!

spitty and his mob speak a foreign language so god knows where their time zone is - incidentally I have a world clock set on my desk top on which I can pick dozens of different clocks around the world - designed by a German so must be accurate if not good and as I type this know it is sat 0.55 pm your time in London and 4.55 am sunday over here - now let’s see what comes up and by the way Mags if it is still a mystery as I supervisor I would ask YOU to take it up with management as part of your responsibilities - I thenk you; I thenk you; I thenk you - good morning from OZ Perth time!

Your post is showing the correct uk time here, 9.59pm :confused:

ok yes must have read the uk clock wrong when I posted - I agree now showing 10.19 pm uk clock at this post - yes I think we’ve solved the damn problem together - thank you supervisor you’ve done a good job there - you may know join the club - sign her in as an honorary member Jem!

Your very welcome Gummy, glad it’s sorted :smiley:

Gummy, just make sure, no one haz wayz of making you Tock.

Off to sort out the “Teenage Wasteland”.

I’ll give you a good TICKIN off for that in a minute; or an hour; or a second ; or even a nano second and see how ya like it - god I think I’ve got a tick on me

Here lies old Fred
He’s quite quite dead
It was often said
He was over fed

He married young Kat
Already quite fat
From eating tat
What a prat

They loved their food
With manners quite rude
They’d finish with booze
Then have a long snooze

I’m not sorry for them
They’d do it again
And not learn to dance
Choose not food but romance

Some hopes…

Gummy’s got Ticks, he should get that “Checked Out”.

Fred was Real
He weren’t no Fake
The Choc Shop Window
Became Opaque

He thought “That’s Queer”
For a Crystal Seer
No need for Eyes
I’ll Fix on Pies.

Nice rhymes there lads.:wink:

I am so pleased that’s all sorted out to your satisfaction Gummy my friend, now you’ll be able to sleep much better knowing you’re in the right time zone. Meanwhile I’m happy to remain in the twilight zone.:smiley:

It’s four in the mornin’ but not on my post
I think it’s been changed by the tick tock ghost
But I don’t care, it doesn’t bother me
If it says two, instead of three
There are some who’s temperatures climb
If they are not set in the exact time
I’m never in any hurry
So why should I worry
Relax, have a beer and a few fags
And listen to the good advice from Mags.:slight_smile:

Coming from a long line of mariners inspired me to write about the good ship TITANIC,

I heard of two old chums that met
To see the film Titanic
The sinking scenes made the front rows wet
and caused a minor panic

cheers and hurrah…

I got an awful drop
On the good ship Lollypop
I wanted to meet Shirley Temple
And put me finger in her little dimple
But I knew my chances were very slim
So I had to settle for Tiny Tim.
I had me bellyful of ships
As I tiptoed off through the tulips. :wink:

Like the deaf pirate Captain, he had no buccaneers.:slight_smile:
