What's the weather doing where you are?

[Nick]

BBC says 'it might be windy' 

Might. I went out to do something to the dustbins, my clothing inflated and I left the ground

That's just perverted 

[Nick]

True, I had to tie them down 

[Darwins Selection]

I rewarded myself with a visit here

 

 

Whatever do you do when you feel you have sinned?

The 'Other Place' perhaps...?

So you are the one who still uses the local Phone box?

"Meetings" sounds far too pompous for a visit to the PO to post a manuscript (yes some publishers still prefer the hard copy to email) and thence to the printer to arrange for some English/Welsh translation and to hand him the proofs of the April issue of the magazine. Were I Scottish I might have said "I have to go to do my messages" but that too would be misconstrued. So I am going out and whilst out I am going to make two calls, one at each of two premises, where I will no doubt engage in some discourse of a social nature and conduct a brief business transaction at each.
Is that clearer?

So who does use the phonebox then?

There isn't one ~ The Police had it removed two years ago as they claimed it "could be a focus for teenagers intent on dealing drugs".

So much for

No need to be tetchy.

A simple answer of "nobody, there isn't one" would have been sufficient.




I suppose you had to find a new place to pin up your "Mr S. Feet Licking Service" cards?

[Snoopy]

Who's tetchy?

I gave up on the cards because of lack of response ages ago and nowadays rely on word of mouth 


Anyway ~ riveting though this all is I really must go or I'll be late.


Still windy and cold but the sun is shining ~ fitfully. (See what I did there? Got back on topic..... must be a first)

[Barman]

Still Pizeing here...

Went to the DIY shop to buy some 50mm pipe - by the time I had bought a hacksaw and cut the end off so it would fit in the car I was soaked... 

[Uncle Mort]

50mm isn't that long ~ surely it would have fitted in the car?
