    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts Name Dropper Xmas Saver!
    Sounds like a perfect day the only girl

    So you sure about Wimbledon marmite, you don't fancy:
    • Kirkpinar oil wrestling (1-7 July, Turkey)
    • Running of the Bulls (6 -14 July, Pamplona, Spain...horrible festival...c'mon you bulls!)
    • Wife Carrying Championships (first Sat in July, Finland)

    after Ascot we should prob avoid the Festival of Chariots in India altogether :o

    Good morning people! :hello:

    You can come out Hubert.We forgive you. :)

    Accidents do happen,after all.There's always the egg and spoon race at the end of term.What do you say we start practising today?

    I see that the look is 'au naturel' today...

    Happy Tuesday everyone!

    marmite strokes her chin reflectively....hmmm.
    The oil wrestling could be funny,let's face it.I'll have to get Elf and Safety to have a butchers first .... :rotfl:

    Racing bulls? No way!

    Igor doesn't look too pleased at the Finnish Challenge.His betrothed,the fragrant Tattywotsit isn't the lightest of brides to be ....
    Mind you,he has to practise carrying her over the threshold...will his trusty truss be sturdy enough? :eek:

    Listen Hubert,stop worrying.
    Just because Buckingham Palace has issued you with a restraining order doesn't mean it was your fault...What kind of industrial strength,extra jumbo donkey nappy manufacturer makes nappies that don't cut the mustard,shall we say?
    I have written a strongly worded letter to their CEO,demanding compensation and a stout apology.
    I've also written to the 'youtube' CEO,demanding that they remove the incriminating video.
    Justice will be done or my name ain't marmite.

    Knit Witch! :wave:
    I was getting worried about you.I thought that maybe you were poorly again and Cheffie has spent the few hours making you a traditional Swedish poultice full of 'erbs and 'stuff' to wear round your neck....

    No connection.What a bother! :mad:

    Good to see you back.

    Wowser!Zipping way ahead of us all;I wouldn't expect anything less. :money: :j :beer:

    Ascot ended in catastrophe and Hubert has now been issued with a restraining order against HRH The Queen!!! :eek:

    After a hurried but dignified retreat from Ascot,The 'Our Lovely Donkey' brigade gatecrashed and headlined Glastonbury on Saturday night though. :rotfl::rotfl: ;)

    So there is some justice in the world....

    PS Igor urgently needs a new pair of knitted unmentionables.Some things never change. :wall:
