    I think you should have quit while you were ahead.

    Resurrecting the gag is a little desperate, but since the beeb have been doing it for years with shows like Only Fools & Horses and Last of the Summer Wine perhaps you should send your finished effort into the comedy dept?

    Come on this is absurd now, it started off funny but the joke has gone on way too long now.

    words spoken by a man who never spurted tea after reading 'where is the peg bag?'

    Give it a chance! You never know where the story will go - we have until 4 Jan to find out!

    Jones Family - we are all here with you. :beer:

    It had potential, it's too slow moving - and not true.

    If it were faster-moving, or true, I'd be more interested in bothering to read it.

    its not often we have "funnies" on here... and i think we all need some light relief from time to time...

    this tale is only like a situation comedy on TV - and whats wrong with that ?

    carry on posting.... please... laughter is good for the soul.....
  • What a fantastic story. I'm sitting on the fence with this one (not your fence OP). It could be a wind up or the most unusal funny story I've heard in a while.

    Maybe they can move in......

    I think they already have.

    Maybe you could get an internet camera to record what they are doing?
    Hopefully they will post now that they have access to the internet.
