Just thinking how innovative the Scribblers are, after all, we did trailblaze the predictive text.
That’s not intended to sound at all team-esk.
So Puggy,

Veni Vidi Vici

Surmai seer.

I get a fair bit of stuff from China and I’ve never had anything to complain about, alright I have to wait a couple of weeks for the free delivery but I’m never in a hurry for anything so that doesn’t matter, I always received what I ordered and I was never stung once. It is absolutely scandalous the profits that are are made on computer accessories and electrical goods in this part of the world, i mean Apple have all their stuff made in China and the exact same cables, leads and adapters more than quadruple in price when they come here, we all like to help keep local business in play but not to the extent of supporting such greed and barefaced robbery.
I know little or nothing about China vast area and all that it is, shame on me, but they are so polite in their dealings with you, one firm went as far as sending me a Christmas card in gaelic!, I mean where would you get that. And we are told these are the bad guys? Bad for the greedy bastards in the west they mean.;-)
They have such true sayings too, here’s a few I never heard before.
“A candle lights others and consumes itself”
“In hardship we see true friendship”
“Love isn’t about having, it’s about enjoying”
“Never miss an opportunity, time doesn’t come around again”
“A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows public opinion”
OMG Jem go and lie down and take a Bex - you’ll feel better later - PHyllis we told you not to let him get to the computer until after lunch - he’s got to much oxygen flowing around!:shock:
I got some Chips from a Chinese Takeaway, and the guy said to me “You want Sore Finger”.

I’M LAST!

Pug what ever position you take here - we’ll support that decision - first - middle man or last or even waiting for a train??
Norra lorra people know that we had a talking lion in Dublin Zoo back in the 50’s, yes Frank was his name and he was a great attraction and asset to the Zoo.
That was a time in Ireland when the church practically ran the country and it wasn’t long before the archbishop heard about Frank the talking lion, his first question was to know if Frank was a catholic or a protestant, he assumed he was catholic and he instructed the parish priest in the Phenix Park district to go and hear Franks confession.
Now Frank was not only popular with the public, all the Lionesses in the Zoo were crazy about him too, it was no wonder he was badly in need of penance.
When father O’Dea arrived at the Zoo it was closed and an attendant at the gate directed him to the managers office, a Michael Murphy at that time. The manager explained to the priest that all was not lost and not to forget that Frank was a talking lion who had several telephones installed in his enclosure, he could hear his confession over the wire. Good idea said the priest and he rang the number Murphy gave him.
Frank’s keeper answered the call.
“ Hello, Frank the talking lions keeper here, what can I do for you?”
“I’m father O’dea the local parish priest, Could you let me talk to Frank please, i’d like to hear his confession?”
“I’m very sorry father, but he’s on another lion at the moment” 
groan!!!
Jem back in the box please!!!
