    The shed is 2/3rds up and they've got through 8 beers, whether the roof is going to go on straight is another matter :rofl:

    :eek: You'd best make them a cake to soak up all that beer!!! Hmmm, I have *just* the thing too - hang on ....


    Here ya go ;)

    Fruit Cake
    1 cup of water
    1 cup of sugar
    4 large eggs
    2 cups of dried fruit
    1 tsp of salt
    1 cup of sugar
    Lemon juice
    Nuts
    1 bottle of Scotch

    Sample the whisky to check for quality.
    Take a large bowl.
    Check the whisky again to be sure it's the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.
    Repeat.
    Turn on the electric mixer, beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.
    Add one tsp of sugar and beat again.
    Taste to check the whisky is still OK.
    Cry another tup. Tune up the mixer.
    Beat two leggs, add to the bowl and chuck in the fried druit.
    Mix on the turner.
    (If the fired druit gets stuck in the beaterers, pry it goose with a drewscriver).
    Sample the whisky to check for toxiticity.
    Next, sift two cups of salt. Or something. Who cares?
    Check the whisky. Now sift the lemon juice and strain your nuts.
    Add one table. Spoon the sugar or something. Whatever you can find.
    Grease the oven. Turn the cake tin to 350 degrees.
    Don't forget to beat off the turner.
    Throw the bowl out of the window.
    Check the whisky again and go to bed.

    No matter what angle the roof goes on that shed ... after making that cake it will look perfectly straight ... to you! ;)

    Ooooh, is it YOURS?? :o Hehehehic - I've been road testing it for you for the last few months - like you do before passing it on :D I tried it with the miniature bottle of scotch, then progressed to a half bottle; upped it to a standard bottle .... still not sure ... I think I'll simply *have* to sacrifice myself and see if it works with a LITRE bottle! :confused: Oh the things we women have to endure!

    Problem is, I don't even like whisky ... more of a brandy girl. Blast! If the Scotch doesn't work, I'll have to start all over again with Brandy! :eek:

    you could make a badge from the lid of a vinegar bottle. Shove a cork into the lid, cut it off level with the back, stick a safety pin onto the cork with some tape - you now have an old style vinegar bottle top badge! :rolleyes:
    As for the bodies and stuff STOPPIT! Im trying not to laugh, and as I can't afford botox, this thread could cause premature ageing!
