Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Anyway, you've done it now. You've got me thinking, and when that starts I have to go have a lie down!
What I'm thinking though, is why are there 3 in a packet?
At some point when the first disposable condoms were packaged up, some marketing geek had to work out the best number to sell them in, to maximise profits, and he came up with 3! Why? What is the significance of 3?
Was that aimed at being a family pack? Cos 3 times a night is average? To appeal to the Irish to be sure, to be sure, to be sure.
I think we deserve answers and I may just research the point of why a packet of 3 came into being.
I'll report back.

Taffy was a Welshman, Taffy was a thief, Taffy came to my house and stole (not a leg of beef but) 2 of my condoms.........good job there were 3 in the pack. Well, it may help your quest.

Up yer in Wales, we done know much bout contrainterception or whateva it is. Me girlfriend said I couldn't 'av sex with her unless I 'ad a condom. Went to the sweet shop, ironmongers, stockbroker, everywhere...they didn't sell 'em; then I went to the chemist an' they 'ad some. Well, I told the girl behind the counter I didn't know what they were, or what to do with 'em so she showed me 'ow to use 'em by rollin' one over 'er thumb. Great, I thought, tonight's the night boyo. Well, afta we done it like, yew know what I mean done yew?!, she said,"you did 'ave a condom on did'n yew boyo?" So I held up my thumb....................anyway, off to feed baby Daffyd now.

Post is down to a bare minimum now bos

just whipping up some cream to go with that !! :)

Go to bed bos ,,you know what your nan said ,,you'll go blind..

jimmy, is that cos it keeps getting in me eyes?

just listening to some frank, and thinking , does it get any cooler?

Yes bos it can , try the Verve or someone like that ,your not old yet ..

Or how about a packet of marmite flavoured twiglets and the Black Lace party album???

Now your talking Al ,,,i always knew you were the cool one amongst us ,,don't forget Chris De Burgh...

verve my arse!!! one good, stolen rift and ashcroft is elevated to god-like status. in truth, there was the stone roses. all the rest are just copies.

Get a grip.
The only true songwriter the world has seen for decades is Mr Paul Weller.
Now that is musical genius.

Bollocks ,, the Verve made some great stuff (as did the stone Roses ) Oasis nicked a lot of rifts but they were still good.

Don't forget Rog ,,how cool was he !!

Oh the classics Roger wrote. They just trip off the tongue.
Remember all those wonderful memories like...............
Erm..........I'll get back to you on that.

Well c'mon Al ,,your not really a fan are you !! what about ,i'm going to leave old Durham Town ,,classic ..

Sorry mate. I have been neglecting my Roger Whittaker studies for some time now in favour of smearing my testicles in crab paste and dangling them in our local pike pond.
Still think Paul Weller is the top man though.

alan, not going to disagree about paul weller, a true genius proved by his sustained acclaim in the industry and constant, successful reinventions. but i don't think you should dismiss writers like bowie, or others in europe who have had similar careers. also , there have been one-offs, like jeff buckley, whose music will always be around.

LOL Al' , well i've suuffered enough abuse on this thread for one day ,,,,actually i was feeling a bit left out ,i never seem to get any ,,i'm thinking of coming over to the SEO thread and talking to Blinger .
