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.

Alan on his holls

Alan, who was holidaying from England on Bondi beach couldn't seem to make it with any of the girls. So he asked the local lifeguard for some advice.
"Mate, it's obvious," says the lifeguard, "you're wearing them old baggy swimming trunks that make ya look like an old geezer. They're years outa style. Your best bet is to grab yourself a pair of Speedos - about two sizes too small - and drop a fist-sized potato down inside 'em. I'm tellin' ya man...you'll have all the babes ya want!"
The following weekend, Alan hits the beach with his spanking new tight Speedos, and his fist-sized potato. But everybody on the beach looked disgusted as he walked by, covering their faces, turning away and laughing, So he went back to the lifeguard again and asked him, "What's wrong now?"

"JAHEESUS!" said the lifeguard, "Mate....the potato goes in the front!"

Hi Guys,
With all the uncertainty around stocks and oil, I thought it my duty to cheer you all up by reminding you its only 164 days to Christmas.
Smile.
Alan

:o(
Hope you had a good holiday Alan, any cricket in mexico?
kim

Nah, just loads of Beach Volleyball.
Played that every day in 100 degrees plus as my mornings fitness regime. What a fantastic detox!! Sweating all the nights beer out and topping up with the old "agua sin gas".
This was my beach bum holiday, interspersed with a bit of Mayan pyramid climbing and reef exploring.
Top notch place, fantastic people, great shopping for the missus, oodles of Tequila. One downside for anyone visiting (or maybe not, depends on your tastes) is that Playa Del Carmen, Cancun and Cozumel are spain for the yanks, which means the food and entertainment is aimed squarely at the yankee dollar. This equates to the entertainment being juvenile and the food being fairly bland and fat rich.
Get out and about a bit more and the food is very good and tasty.
All in all it can go on my recommendations list.
Wondering about next year now.
I have the whole of August to spoil myself and I am pondering either a long cruise or a Grand Tour of Europe in an RV.
Nice to be back though and raring for tommorows cricket match / humiliation.
Alan

Thank you Mr Escher.
