omg SP that was a crippler - you know my heart - that cut deep babe - ya nearly there - omg no room to move!!
I forgot to add that that song Miss you NIghts was shear poetry in motion what separates the boys from the men. Magic music and words - nearly as equal to bridge of troubled waters but not quite. good find SP.
Good Morning everyone
It is a beautiful day, rather like you lot.
hello what time is it over there - oh 11.15 - you should all be back from church by now!
Shhh l don’t go.
Hate to ruin your day Toots…but a female devil is called a ‘succubus’. [unless you prefer the Hebrew version,which is ‘Lilith’,who was Adam’s first wife and got him into all that trouble]
Ok-gotta go. tara.
I missed you at the other place Pugsy Bear.
You are running around today.
Glad you are back here though.
oh NO not him again??
I thought someone scuppered his dinghy??
I don’t make stories up Gummy, I just embellish them with a bit of imagination, I can’t help it. 
Don’t forget when reading my tripe, it’s never a lie if your not expected to believe it.
“And his body lies down in the Grimshaw, for the Ain-gels to take him away, yes the Ain-gels will take him away”
Lines from a very old song I heard in a rural pub the other night, a very sad but true tale of a young man who went out on a fishing trawler the night before he was to be married and perished in the “Grimshaw” with four other hands, they searched for several days after the storm but neither the boat nor the bodies were ever found, a very sad story and it brought a tear to my eye.
Yes Angels became a drawn out ‘Ain-gels’ he was one of those singers who square their mouths up for serious songs, and by God there’s nothing as ugly as a square mouth on any man or woman.
The same singer sang that old chestnut originally by Dickie Valentine “I Wonder”, when he came to the part “When little children learn to walk and someday day walk away” he sang “When lethal children learn to walk and someday walk away” Know what I mean.
Love is like a badly fitted pacemaker, it can make your heart flutter and your fingers tingle, so a chap from Kerry was telling me, he was all a flutter.
My Uncle Gus has just retired from the document shredding department in government buildings, he was 40 years there, you’d think it was a very boring job, but no, he has some ripping yarns to tell.
wot are you goin on about - I have never said your stories are tripe or you make them up - you just hallucinate a lot!!
anyway welcome back and show us the tatoos on ya bum - SP said she’s seen them!!
I love his stories.
I’m going to think of one. X
here’s one for the lads about dead cars!! - my car died yesterday and it died again today - let me explain - it started makin that chug chug chug along noise and lost speed .
My FIL who is a highly qualified car mechanic said - I’ll come and see you then we’ll drive back to my place were all the tools are and you can leave it with me to fix - if I tried to tell you what the terminal condition was you wouldn’t believe me - a bit like fruitys airplane condition at the bar!!
off I trotted - well limped in me little thingy and he followed on in his reliable dinghy and we dillied and dallied ; lost our way …no that’s another story. got to his place THEN he took me all the way back for a rest - THEN I went all the way back laterly as fruity would say. THEN he told me he had taken off the rocker cover and exposed her innards - how terrible and found her washers and gaskets were all awash with oil and so were the spark plugs - this is were it is gonna get very exciting cos he told me it would cost $100 to fix and if I didn’t pay up he wouldn’t put humpty dumpty back together again - part II tomorrow!!
Oh, dear Gummy. Now let me see, dingo dollars 56.48 Pound sterling, or
63.21 Euro. Not that bad.
You wanted this Gummy Bear.
superb SP - you come through everytime a winner - match that Jem!
OIY!!! Get to bed you, it is 2am with you.
I was looking at this.
Softly, I will leave you softly
For my heart would break if you should wake and see me go
So I leave you softly, long before you miss me
Long before your arms can beg me stay
For one more hour or one more day
After all the years, I can’t bear the tears to fall
So, softly as I leave you there
(Softly, long before you kiss me)
(Long before your arms can beg me stay)
(For one more hour) or one more day
After all the years, I can’t bear the tears to fall
So, softly as I leave you there
As I leave I you there
As I leave I you there
Songwriters: Antonio De Vita / Hal Shaper
Then I found this.
Oh my love
I have cursed the stars above
That lead my heart to you
But as hard as I try
Still my love will not die
And the stars still shine on through
And the stars still shine on through
Oh my dear
Now this ship’s too hard to steer
The tide has turned, turned on you
I have been through the lies
That I’ve seen in your eyes
But the truth still shines on through
But the truth it still shines, shines on through
So shine, shine on through the days we have to fill
Though we took our love so daringly
And gave it up uncaringly
There are feelings left not even we can kill
Oh my friend
So at last we reach the end
The lights go down on cue
I have wasted my time
But it tasted oh so fine
That my love still shines, shines on through
And my love still shines, shines on you
We’re all on a love kick today.;-)
I find that hard to believe Sweetie, I just couldn’t imagine a fella picking up pen and paper and writing a song if he was on his last few gasps, and how did he get his composing piano into the bed? :-), still it’s a lovely song.
Tough luck about the jelopy Gummy, I’d imagine a car is essential where you live, looks like you’ll just have to smile and cough up.
Anyone of my generation will remember that old expression “He who dips his wick must pay for the oil”
I watched an old film “The Witchfinder General” earlier, I was wondering what Matthew Hopkins would have on his tombstone when suddenly it came to me in a flash. Witches were treated like cream crackers I’m them days, they got dunked three times to soften them up.
Here lies Matthew Hopkins Witchfinder General.
“For He who dips his Witch must lay in the soil”
