    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    cant wait for the funeral next Wednesday - somethings bound to go tits up!!!!!!

    :T:j:rotfl:

    As I understand it, Enid will be cremated tits up.

    Well Mr C thought the job interview at the undertakers went well and came back with fish and chips for us all in celebration. The funeral directors is run from home and they dont have much parking so they have offered him the hearse as a company car should he get the job. Not sure I would want to run a funeral directors from home, I can imagine Mrs J popping into the freezer to get the Clover to be greeted by Enid with a pearl necklace.

    I suggested that the company herse may be a bug ger to park at Tesco's, unless they park the hearse in the drop off bay. On the plus side, at least they could get a baguette in the back of it without it arriving home bent.

    Sorry I havent been on before, we have been busy packing and the clampetts have been running back and forth to the tip to clear our garage of Mothers items. All in all a nice day!

    Not sure why but this line made me laugh out loud... my OH just asked what I am laughing at -not sure I can begin to explain the last 40 pages of dialogue.

    I saw a white camper parked up in ASDA a few days ago and it was clearly 'in use' - I did wonder if the Clampetts had fancied a little excursion - was going to take a photo to post up for comedy value but damn digital camera wasn't charged.. typical :p

    Continuity error ;)

    Remember Mr C was arrested for drunken driving in an earlier episode, how will he have a company car without a drivers licence......

    Ahhh, we did that one earlier. He hasn't actually lost it yet, he keeps his licence until his case goes to court. That could take months. :)
    My first reply was witty and intellectual but I lost it so you got this one instead :D
