Now you have me giggling.
I can’t wait for his response.
Oh,it gets worse,Miss Pie.
last night I spotted him and his paid-for-by-the-hour consort weaving all over the pavement. I shouted to them “Hey,you two-get a loom!”
well we all heard of the tailess cheshire cat but the black bodyless; legless ;head only black cat of anglia - well I suppose ‘legless’ is a good description of anyfink comin out of the angles!!! - you must have heard the old tale of 'how do you recognized an angles man walking home from the pub?"
ya can’t they are always legless!! - It’s the way he tell um!
Well,it’s sad-but whenever a female sees ol’ gummy naked…
…she screams and runs out of the park!
Re. Jabberwocky.
That Lewis Carroll fella would have done well here on scribbles, that’s weird at it’s finest, we would have rolled out the red carpet for a talent like that, ain’t that the truth Gummy old boy? and the bold Luey was a professor of mathematics!, just goes to show you how to much maths can fry up your brain and make it go all Jabberwocky. Good on ya Mad Luey!
“God’s truth. Someone up there likes me
Probably Mr Whippy”
Fair play to you Spitty, always on the ball, I always enjoy your clever quips, you are indeed “The Chief Quip” of the Scribblers party, who do everything except politics.
Not talking politics, but merely seeking out a bit of info, and I know I could google this but as I always say I like the ordinary persons slant on things, much better than the search machines clinical answers.
Why are there “Chief whips” in political parties? Why are they called whips? Did they begin to call them whips after the Profumo/Keeler conservative party scandal when Christine and Mandy were whipping government ministers like spinning tops, lots of weird stuff was going on back then, remember the chap found dead in the wardrobe naked and an orange in his mouth? yes indeed, a sort of landlubbers version of Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash, or “Two years strapped to the Mast”. What about Ivanov? where did he fit into the games? Did he squeal and cry “I’ve a nuff, I’ve a nuff”
I’ve never been interested in politics so I’m in the dark about all these political terms, just curious about the whip thing, seems a strange title to me. I could understand the jockey’ club having a chief whip.
don’t get ya point with that one unless you are suggesting that Pugs is rather like a snake in a spinning top - once he’s in and then he’s out - as the vicars daughter said to the angles sailor - heh sailor stop twisting all about ya rockin the Femy!!
Why are they called whips is really the question Gummy, Pug is entitled to spin and rock any which way he likes, that’s his privilege, besides he’s a musician and can provide his own music.;-)
why are who called the whips Jem??
Sorry Jem, I’m not a political historian, but I do know why the guy was lashed up, dead in the wardrobe with an orange in his mouth, he crossed the Man from Del Monte, No-One crosses the Man from Del Monte!!!
Ok, whips, It is because they have NO walnuts. I have a thread about that Jem.Whips - Over 50s Forum
Sorry I could not resist.
The Chief Whip is a political office in some legislatures whose task is to administer the whipping system that tries to ensure that members of the party attend and vote as the party leadership desires.
Where does the term party whip come from?
Party Whips. Both parties in the Senate elect whips. The term “whip” comes from a fox-hunting expression – “whipper-in” – referring to the member of the hunting team responsible for keeping the dogs from straying from the team during a chase.
In the early automobile era, the steering wheel became known as the whip. In more modern times, various hip-hop artists noticed that the Mercedes Benz logo resembled a steering wheel, which as mentioned was also known as the whip. So by association, the Mercedes Benz and later any fancy car was called a whip.
Thank you for that explanation Sweetie. So the term comes from keeping dogs in line via the whipper in, I suppose if one of the dogs went to bite the whipper in one might call that dog a whipper snapper.
I’m just thinking now about a cowboy who used to be in the old comics, he used a whip and was called “Lash LaRue” not related to Danny La Rue by the way, not many here would remember good old Lash.

Bang on there Spitty, when, and only when, the man from Del Monte says yes can they pick the CROP.
All his produce are of the finest, the pears are especially nice with lashings of fresh cream and a smack of vanilla.
Oh…and someone tell that plank gumbud that just because a sound isn’t received does NOT mean a sound wasn’t emitted.
Ta.
Some nice places and buildings in that video Spitty.
Where was yerwoman looking for, I thought she said “The Canal Inn”.
Dunno Jem, the bint seemed a bit disorientated, sounded a bit like carnal in to me.
MACBETH
She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
did you know
her plums have got red maggots??
