Another pointless thread

Had the twins today, grandad was told off (nothing unusual there then) took them to see Mrs Cedric`s Grandaughter, quite amazing to see the interaction of a 15 month old girl and a pair of 8 year old boys. Wicked seeing the boys playing with baby toys again. All 3 rolling about the floor without a care. Ah the innocence of young children.

Beer

Good to see you had a good day with the grand kids Cedric

Thanks Stuey, good slug of Grouse finishes the day off beautifully How are you doing now?

I'm getting there thanks Cedric - I still can't believe how long it takes to shake off meningitis

I'm busy doing stuff for the little fellas room I have been putting off for months - so far his one double power socket has become two and at opposite sides of the room to the original location, light switch moved/changed, plastering done - flat screen tv on the wall instead of on his desk(it's a bluff) to cover the new fandangled Christmas arrival for him (lens fund battered again) - tomorrow it's another light switch change (buried into the wall rather than on it)and a new carpet in the toilet - hopefully I will have a rest at Christmas

...and here I am after several Goose Eye Chinooks, a bottle of Chilean merlot and several brandies...

.... and with the aid of a good spell chucker.

Edit:- that should be CHECKER !!!!

HG at 00:02 what are you up to on the forum? Your`e using valuable drinking time on pointless stuff.

Seasonal Reminder

Remember to put the Spouts on, they need 10 days fast boiling.

I prefer to leave them frozen as they are better for throwing at carol singers

Frozen sprout fired from a catapult. Now that`s some idea.

If you got small ones, would they work in a musket:

You gotta musket? Nah, the gunpowder explosion would thaw them out! Besides, the catpult is quiet and, with a bit of practice, almost as accurate as a Brown Bess.

Well I didn't know that

Did you know 1132 was the factory model designation of my first car. link

I like where this 'sprout' thing is going - Hmmmm catapult - less effort with more effect

well - thanks to Tesco deliveries , I'm now stocked up with my favourite BEER again.

I felt a wee bit sorry for the delivery guy - it was a VERY heavy delivery - I got my money's worth out of that one - not just beer but other stuff too

Surely a vaccum cleaner in reverse would make a good sproutshooter???

(Err, I mean a cylinder type one with a tube - not an upright!)
