The sky has just turned from grey to blue
Another hot day will now ensue
Kate decided to whip off all her clothes
And used her pants to blow her nose!

The Chat Room / Re: The boring thread.....

Quote from: klondike on Today at 02:12:47 PMIt is well documented in scientific journals that there are leakages of matter from parallel universes but these have always thought to be small oddly shaped pieces of metal or plastic that appear in kitchen draws. Sometimes there is a straight transfer of such material and items such as radiator keys mysteriously disappear.

To my knowledge nothing the size of a Morris Minor engine has been reported although I must admit that I have no idea what happened to the single cylinder Matchless 350 engine I had in pieces in a box for years awaiting discovery of a frame it could be fitted into once rebuilt.
Apparently these devices (sheds)  can transcend the laws of space and time are capable taking out of action the majority of adult males in UK during periods of likely invasion by aliens
Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons are especially dangerous  maybe the fact that my shed  that gives off a strange smell that is almost irresistible, Pine  and creosote may have mind altering properties!  The old fridge full of lager and cheap wine and my collection of glossy magazines  might be the reason I am seen staggering from there. There needs to be a guvvermunt investigation

We bought a new jetwasher.  We have a broken jetwasher in the shed. Same make, some of the parts may come in handy...😑.  If he chucked it, we could perhaps keep more cardboard boxes.

Quote from: klondike on Today at 02:06:14 PMI doubt many pensioners use a VPN. This is almost certainly just another bot which for some reason used a believable user id to sign up.

I've sometimes checked and found unused IDs that are quite old. It's why I made some of the boards visible only to a manually assigned group and why it is safer in these troubled times (crap governments) to use Controversial or other private sections for some types of post.

My guess is that there is one type of bot that sets up IDs all over the web and they get sold on for use by others running different bots. We used to get one register and immediately post a bunch of links but I haven't seen that in ages.

More concerned about having a VPL. ☺️

Would be nice if Joan really is Joan though.

Muddy, thanks for the link.

I can't really see why anyone with medical needs would need a hosepipe though,  can you?

I also can't see why having 3 children under 19 should make a difference,  nor being on benefits either.    
Another office bod's brainwave by the sound of it.   :rolleyes:

Quote from: Mups on Today at 11:53:20 AMJust repeating what was said on the news.
The Russians call their News Pravda which apparently translates to truth or justice. As we don't get either anymore it just sticks to being News.
