The Chat Room / Re: Lets write a Limerick, one...

When Hilda walked to the shops
There was blue lights and sirens from Cops
Were they nicking a shoplifter? No!
They were buying breakfast butties to go,
And hot chocolate, with cream on the top.

Shoplifting is now a career
With orders for spirits, meat and beer

The Chat Room / Sir David Attenborough
Last post by Mups - April 28, 2026, 11:01:19 PM
On Friday,  May 8th, which is nearly here now,   it will be Sir David Attenborough's 100th Birthday!
What an achievement.  What a life.

I have read there is going to be a huge concert for him at the Royal Albert Hall,  with lots of special guests.

A night to remember for a very special man.

A woman who worked in Woolworths warned me about pick and mix.
She said some kids sampled them for flavour, then put them back.......

Quote from: klondike on April 28, 2026, 02:08:47 PMThe courts and prisons are far too busy dealing with those posting hurty words on X and Facebook to bother with shoplifting. Or child rape gangs it seems.
The country's going to the dogs.  The sooner we are rid of Labour and what they regard as government, the better, but their mess is going to take a hell of a lot of work to overcome.

Alan was on the pull one night
He saw a lass who would delight
But she turned him down
And said with a frown
'Come near me and I'll bite!'
