Why are you still believing it even after seeing a certain website? Because a close relation told it to me, and I believe what she says
So your sister's husband's work colleague is a close relation?
You know that they've taken the word 'gullible' out of the dictionary?**Thanks to everyone on here for hints, tips and advice!**:D

yes because of course, before the war we could all leave our doors unlocked and nobody nicked anything:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
Don't mention the vorr!
Apart from anything else, this thread has already gone back as far as Len Fairclough and Bett Lynch.
It'd be terrifying, now, to learn that Albert Tatlock's mum was once robbed of her wash-line by an enemy paratrooper who landed in her yard and nicked it off the hook affixed to the privy.
Oh, maybe that's where all this began though.0 -
I keep looking to see if this thread has been moved to the arms LOL

Im confused????
You said if your sisters Husband had told you then you wouldnt believe it?
Now you say that it must be true because it happened to your sister's husband's colleauge at work.
Now if he wasnt trust worthy on page 2 of the thread why is he suddenly spouting gospel on page 6?Bowling_4_Gold wrote:I asked my Sister today more about it, and she told me that it was in fact her HUSBAND's work colleague it happened to, and he knows her by name. He was told the story by her, and in fact it was NOT my Sister's friend. Sorry if the information in my 1st post was misleading, but i'm afraid theres not alot I can do about it.0 -

Public toilets do not have hooks outside the doors for the very simple reason that nobody would use them! Not unless they had been completely lobotomised!!!
How big is the bag, or how small do you think the cubicle is?
I've been having a great laugh reading some of the posts on this thread.
Come on, you cannot honestly believe the b/s you posted at the beginning?0
