Quote from: Raven on Today at 12:16:03 PMI believe it was tried but as you know Chris disabled the PM on the other forum. I don't think anyone had his email, not that I know of anyway.
Only way would have been an open post and Chris would have just loved that.
Tell me about it!

Quote from: klondike on Today at 12:10:56 PMA man wakes up in the hospital bandaged from head to foot.

The doctor comes in and says, "Ah, I see you've regained consciousness. Now you probably won't remember, but you were in a huge pile-up on the freeway. You're going to be ok, you'll walk again and everything, but your penis was severed in the accident and we couldn't find it."

The man groans, but the doctor goes on, "You have $9000 in insurance compensation coming and we now have the technology to build a new penis. They work great but they don't come cheap. It's roughly $1000 an inch."

The man perks up.

"So," the doctor says, "You must decide how many inches you want. But I understand that you have been married for over thirty years and this is something you should discuss with your wife. If you had a five incher before and get a nine incher now she might be a bit put out. If you had a nine incher before and you decide to only invest in a five incher now, she might be disappointed. It's important that she plays a role in helping you make a decision."

The man agrees to talk it over with his wife.

The doctor comes back the next day, "So, have you spoken with your wife?"

"Yes I have," says the man.

"And has she helped you make a decision?"

"Yes" says the man.

"What is your decision?" asks the doctor.

"We're getting granite countertops."

If Brian arrived I think there would be a number of other revivals such as these books I kept finding in charity shops..




Not to mention my dog / chauffeur Yogi who set out to see the world alone but may find his way home...



Such things can only exist in that special universe inhabited by Brian

I see the eBay ones are printed. With no printer it's probably worth paying a reasonable amount to get a printed version which I'm guessing would be needed.

Quote from: JBR on Today at 11:13:56 AMSimple.  Use anti-climb paint, which of course never dries.
Then put up a sign saying 'WET PAINT', and leave it there permanently.

The thick vandals will see it, wait a couple of days for the paint to dry, then clamber up!
Which takes us back to the stupidity of this Act because if you didn't display a sign saying Anti-Climb Paint & the intruder slipped & fell you could be sued for damages.

Interesting, but even more stupid, is the fact that if the intruders clothing was damaged they couldn't claim for it as they shouldn't have been climbing into your premises

You couldn't make this Act up, until some idiot did.

Quote from: klondike on Today at 09:22:21 AMDoes shouting "Sod off or you'll get a butt full of buckshot" count? If so maybe the home defence argument changes.
Such threatening language may upset them.

Quote from: Diasi on Today at 09:00:53 AMFor the purposes of the Act the occupier is the person who has control of the land / premises & if a person who is on the land / premises sustains an injury the occupier can be sued for damages unless they can show that all reasonable steps were taken to prevent any injuries.

Warning signs about any potential harmful risks being part of complying with the Act.

Simple.  Use anti-climb paint, which of course never dries.
Then put up a sign saying 'WET PAINT', and leave it there permanently.

Quote from: Vlad on Today at 10:47:27 AMLucky buggers, nobody ever wanted to show me their puppy's, the choir master seemed to prefer ladies, the scoutmaster was only interested in his selection of knots, the lady at the corner sweet shop never asked me to go into the stockroom for some slap and tickle , I was a very plain child.
The problem is that obviously you haven't made yourself sufficiently attractive.
You could try stuffing something large down the front of your pants to enhance your appearance.
