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.

An 86 year old man walked into a crowded waiting room and
approached the desk.... The Receptionist said, "Yes sir, what are you
seeing the Doctor for today?"
"There's something wrong with my dick", he replied. The
Receptionist became irritated and said, "You shouldn't come into a
crowded waiting room and say things like that."
"Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you," he said.
The Receptionist replied; "Now you've caused some embarrassment
in this room full of people. You should have said there is something
wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with
the Doctor in private."
The man replied, "You shouldn't ask people questions in a room
full strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone. The man walked
out, waited several minutes and then re-entered.
The Receptionist smiled smugly and asked, "?Yes??"
"There's something wrong with my ear", he stated.
The Receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had
taken her advice. "And what is wrong with your ear, Sir??"
"I can't piss out of it," he replied.

Cannavaro wins Euro player award
Cannavaro has enjoyed a memorable year
Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro has been named European Footballer of the Year by France Football magazine.
The 33-year-old Real Madrid defender, who captained Italy to victory at the World Cup in Germany, becomes one of the few defenders to win the prize.
Cannavaro won the honour with 173 points, ahead of Juventus keeper Gianluigi Buffon (124) of Italy and Arsenal striker Thierry Henry (121).
The Ballon d'Or award is based on a vote by European football journalists.
France midfielder Zinedine Zidane, who retired after reaching the World Cup finals, was placed fifth with 71 points.
Last year's European Footballer award went to Barcelona's Brazil playmaker Ronaldinho, who finished fourth this time around.
It has a double importance because it's given to the greatest players and as a defender it's rare to have this honour
Cannavaro is the fifth Italian to win the award after Omar Sivori (1961), Gianni Rivera (1969), Paolo Rossi (1982) and Roberto Baggio (1993).
He also revealed that the award had extra significance as he became the first defender to win since Germany's Mathias Sammer in 1996.
"It has a double importance because it's given to the greatest players and as a defender it's rare to have this honour," said the delighted Neapolitan.
"The World Cup in Germany was perfect for a defender. I remember in particular the semi-final against Germany."
Capped 105 times for his country, the Real Madrid defender was one of seven nominated players from the Italian team that captured its fourth World Cup title.
In domestic football, Cannavaro clinched victory in Serie A with Juventus over the last two seasons before his previous club side were stripped of those titles and demoted to the second division after being found guilty of match fixing.
"I want to thank Real president Raman Calderon and my team-mates from Juve and the national team who had an important part to play in my winning this award," Cannavaro added.
"Many people analysed my season with Juve in 2005 for this vote. In that season I played 37 matches and scored four crucial goals."
2006 BALLON D'OR RESULTS
1. Fabio Cannavaro (Real)
2. Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus)
3. Thierry Henry (Arsenal)
4. Ronaldinho (Barcelona)
5. Zinedine Zidane (retired)
about time this man was rewarded.

I echo jimmys comments..................
Just to let anyone in M&S know, they had a bad Christmas Eve............
Took the family there for the last minute locust job on the food aisles and to pick up some posh nosh we had had to order. The ham on the bone was missing so I kicked off in a lively manner and the manager kept stuffing food and booze into a bag I had dropped by my feet, for just such a purpose. It cost M&S a fortune to shut me up and just as they thought the worst of it was over.......my youngest was sick over about 2 grands worth of clothing.
Merry Christmas to all, especially the cleaners and manager at my local M&S.
