If I had it, I'd pay 10k for the foot massage - definitely the way to my


Glad to see you are sounding more perky Jim and lovely to see so many newbies getting positive stuff from your confessional - perhaps you should rename your diary?
I've read your thread Jim; I don't believe you are watching Sky news before bed
Ha Ha, Yes those who have been here from the start will know the truth ! But once you've seen a 55 year old ex-stripper get a latex moulding of her nether regions sometimes the headlines are sufficient in rounding off your evening. I haven't even started the confessional yet unless seeing a 55 year old ex-stripper get a latex moulding of her nether regions counts as a starting point. See, I have so much to be sorry for .0 -

Good for you fixing your loo Jim - I guess the headlines will be quite sufficient highlight after a day doing that :rotfl:0 -
I have just seen the tribute to Henry Allingham on BBC2. Great programme and what a wonderful man, the public seemed to get a buzz just by being near him both young and old.

Ah well its not just a fixed loo, I've updated my CV , sat in the Sun reading "an utterly impartial history of Britain" by John O'farrell (to the extent that my forehead is peeling) and polished off half a bottle of Gin. I am slurring my typing, but fortunatly I have spell check. It has now been raining solidly since 6pm and so far on my holiday there have been 3 days only with out rain. Part of me will be glad to go back to work on Monday (in the heatwave no doubt). I am bored of reading, I've seen everything in Blockbusters, I have seen everything on youtube and listened to everything on itunes.0 -
I missed that but saw some of the coverage of Harry Patch's funeral and interviews earlier. I couldn't believe how bright and sparky he was at 100yrs old - I missed that interview at the time too. I was very moved by what everyone had to say about him, especially the young soldiers.0

Didn't have you down as a gin man Jim - you must be listening to some of your mellower tunes.worried_jim wrote: »Ah well its not just a fixed loo, I've updated my CV , sat in the Sun reading "an utterly impartial history of Britain" by John O'farrell (to the extent that my forehead is peeling) and polished off half a bottle of Gin.

Know what you mean about the seen everything thing... I watch too much mock the week, reckon I've seen 'em all.0 -
ah mock the week, the only programme I make a point of seeing without fail. I just love Frankie Boyle. For his top 5 funniest gags (warning strong adult humour) see-

Last day of Holiday and the Sun is shining. Out of the last 13 days it has rained on 10 of them. I am off to a BBQ today (only the second of the year-BBQ summer said the met office, absolute bollox says Jim).
Have already defrosted the freezer this morning, why I didn't do it 2 weeks ago. Just had a call from the co-op bank regarding my Smile account. I said that I was surprised they were calling since I was on an agreed repayment plan through Payplan to which they replied -"Yes, I am surprised that we have called you if that is the case" and lo and behold it was just a computer error for which they apologised and wished me a good day. Full credit to the polite man at co op collections in Manchester. I can remeber the days when these calls used to get my back up, now I am very polite and I usually find that they are equally, if not more so, polite in return as they realise they have a 5 minute call which will be easy for them and no hassle.
Why do I harbour a desire to be the Gaviscon fireman?
