The very thought!

Naughty boy I didn’t mean it like that. X
Wow! that’s big and bright CM, I would have loved to see that in the sky.
I get comfort in the knowledge that someone/thing is keeping an eye on us, left to our own devices we’d be an extinct species long ago, we can’t wait to start wars so we can slaughter each other.
It only takes a few big natural disasters to make us realise how insignificant we are in the big picture.
For years now the missus has slagged me over the things I see, of course i don’t mind that in the least, but last week the shoe was on the other foot, she had been out the back hanging up washing on the line, it was twilight time, she saw two shining objects zig zagging in the sky in a way that no man made mechanical object could do, she rushed in to tell me to grab my camera, when we got outside the things were gone, but I had got my own back by saying there was never anything there in the first place, she got quite annoyed about it.
My policy on UFO’s and all the other associated stuff is the same as everyone else who really experienced the strange and unexplained, if you want a quiet life keep yer mouth shut about it, you know what happened and that’s all that matters to you.;-)
I have never seen a UFO.
I watched all the Xfiles, does that count?
Nope, sorry Sweetie, ya gotta see the real thing.
Ahh, what an undignified end to Spitty’s lovely car:-(.
Gummy what about my three balls??? Strange or what?
Oh well I will hope. X
My Jalopy ain’t finished, new life will be breathed into it, just you wait and see.
Jem I think you balls start off as a duet and after your 5th guiness turn into three and become guiness balls!
Black Nectar, the downfall of most Blokes.
Here you are Sweetie!
better put that away DM - Jem I see the Irish have just beaten the KIwis at rugby - congratulations!
Lovely cake. X
I just popped in to say I am off soon.
I will next post from the plane. X
Thanks Gummy, yes I’m proud of the lads.
Have a safe journey Sweetie and enjoy yourself.
That’s a great old word Spitty “Jalopy” I haven’t heard it in years, it reminded me of a youngish woman some years ago who married an old geezer strictly for his money, and she didn’t care who knew it. While he was mostly sick and house bound she was out in the local having a good time.
She was telling us one Saturday afternoon that the old lad had to go into hospital to have a job done on his veins, I had to laugh the way she came out with the news “Me old Jalopy is in St. Marys being rewired, I hope it brightens him up a bit”
Now if a fella said that about a woman there’d be skin and hair flying.
You can’t win every game and did you see Hansen’s very humble comments? I am pleased with the way they handled defeat and how they handle winning too. Well done Ireland.
“Wyatt Earp’s Revenge” was the feature western on Movies for Men this afternoon, I did not enjoy the film, it was too clinically clean for a western if you know what I mean, all the cowboys, and I mean all of them had perfect sparkling white teeth, well washed faces, expertly trimmed moustaches and shampooed hair, and those wearing white shirts must have washed them in Daz because they were dazzling white, even the dirt on the towns streets was clean dirt, no, the cleanliness of it all ruined it for me.
As you may have guessed I like westerns but I wish they would try to be correct with their characters appearances when making some of the modern ones.
Those old cowboys were rough fellas, they cared little about personal hygiene in fact most of them were ‘dirt birds’ as they used to say of folks who seldom washed. As for their teeth, they had manky teeth if we are to be honest, no toothbrushes (real cowboys used their index finger to clean their teeth, never giving a second thought where it might have been before ) and no dentists for hundreds of miles so most of them would have mouths full of rotten teeth or none at all, but I don’t entirely blame the modern film makers for giving them all perfect teeth, even in the old films all the principle characters had fine teeth, indeed I remember Jeff Chandler as an Indian chief sitting having a pow wow with Burt Lancaster and his snow white teeth glistened brightly as the sun beat down on them, dazzling Lancaster, as the woman in the seat beside me said “If I had a set of teeth like that I’d throw away the rest of my body”
Yes let’s be more realistic when making so called ‘true’ historical films.
Yes I know, I’ve little to be bothering me these days.
There is much to be said for your perception Jem, just too few folks to voice it.
well last night at approx 6pm the monsoon season started around our way. I had often watched those old movies of jungle scenes in the old Malaya or Singapore. There stood the Ma;am Saab gin and tonic in hand on the porch of her jungle home bleating " Oh darling the monsoons have started early this year"
Yes I now not only know but can feel what she felt - the start of the monsoons is a magical moment - oppressive heat has been born for long months - we’ve been hitting 37 C lately and then the rumble starts and we hold our breathes in case it disappears - no it grows louder and then those first pitter patters on the galvanized roof that heralds the orchestral beginning of the monsoon rains! - I sat with me pipe and bourbon on the rocks and was indeed a contented man - rather like Kirk Douglas in " Bridge over the river Kwai" !
