I like being a Virtual comedian, it doesn't hurt so much when pelted with virtual tomatoes. :rotfl: I did a spell on the Northern club circuit years ago. I died on my A that often I should have been enbalmed by now!

I also used to roady for some mates of mine Nickle and Dime. We were at a club in Gateshead when and old guy keeled over dead at the shock of winning a game of tombola. :eek:

They left him at his table and covered him with the cloth off the bingo machine. We knew we would get paid off,:beer::beer:
When the Concert Secretary came on stage and announced, Lady's and Gentlemen. Due to the sad demise of our esteemed and elderly member, and as a mark of respect, there will be no more live entertainment this evening.:mad:

But to make up for this tickets are on sale at the back of the concert lounge for an extra 3 games of Bingo :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

The Wheel Tappers and Shunters Club lives on.
(Sorry to the younger members of the thread suggest you Google 1970's comedy):A:rotfl::rotfl:

Cheers all, handy.

Don't know if this will work if it does, please don't quote cos I've found that that affects my photobucket Quota. I plan to play the white man at the weekend and pay the subscription to use the service fully.

I took this at lunchtime yesterday. Little booger roosts in a big holly tree, the finches go spare as it's a predator. Each time I have lined up the camera its away, but yesterday it sat and posed.

Cheers all.

What a fantastic picture, it's as if it's saying 'yes, and what are you doing coming to my home', brilliant.

I was a pro photographer for a number of years, did photography at college for general studies. Packed it all in years ago. I used to do 100+ weddings a year. (I had help as well a freelance for others).

My step Daughter gets married in September, so I said I would do the Piccy's as a Wedding prezzy. Also a good excuse to get a new camera.
The plan is to start up again part time as a second source of income.

I used to be a member of a freelance agency, I am wondering if I might be able to sell a few wildlife shots, it used to be @ £20 for a one off use of a photo like this.

I used to do nude photography as well, but finding somewhere to keep my spare batteries was a problem.

I got round it by tucking them down my socks.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Cheers all, handy.

Brilliant photo, Handy, what mesmerising eyes - they are such beautiful birds.

Loving the jokes this evening - you're back on form again.

Good news about MIL, hope Mrs H can get some rest now.

It was a good film, but it missed loads out from the book, and wasn't as three dimensional. But I nearly always hate adaptations of books I've loved!

ETA: I loved the idea of a shed on a land rover but then he opened it out...

Me too, Ames, but haven't read that book..

Yep, the land rover was brilliant - the idea of a library in a mobile home cracked me up:rotfl:

'night all, leaving you in charge of Fred, last one to bed park him in his usual place, he tends to stay there:rotfl:

Wow those eyes are stunning - good shot Handy - and you're well on form with the stories tonight - a great end/start/middle of the day - guaranteed to raise a smile you is

As Spoon says, hope Mrs Handy gets a chance to relax now - she needs to

I'm off to my bed now - so night night Handy, Ames & Spoon -remember, last up, turn out the lights and chain Fred up - oh no, the other way round or you won't be able to see what you're doing

Cheers Spoon, Thanks All, Handy is off to bed now. Its going to be fun tomorrow. Lord H's brothers have demanded a meeting with Lady H to discuss the financial situation? Last thing she needs the date of the Funeral isn't even set yet. It's a proper soap opera. I keep thinking I will wake up in the shower and it's all been a bad dream (Dallas).:rotfl:

It wouldn't be so bad but they are both in worse health than Lord H.
I once told him "get it spent, there aren't any pockets in a shroud"

I will try to stick my neb in (yorkie expression) if I can. They won't like a gardener sticking his nose in. But they don't know my pedigree for causing trouble.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
See you all in the Morning, Geebee can you make the coffee extra strong, handy will need it.

Goodnight all my mates X see you in the morning.
