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.

summer

Jimmy B,

The markets are well down, The weather is rotten and I went to the races yesterday, backed in 6 races never got better than 4th.
And then to make matters worse my wife who has been threatening to leave me has changed her mind.
Any chance of cheering us/me up with one of those sexy but tasteful pictures that I don't want you to post, ever again.

That's terrible news greekman ,i'll try and find something like Jenifer Lopez and Cindy Crawford having a naked ice cream fight.

I've just seen on Bloomberg that wild oats shares have risen. I'll be off to sow some then.......

Saw this quote today, must be were I went wrong!-

"There are a number of mechanical devices which increase sexual arousal, particularly in women. Chief among these is the Mercedes-Benz 380SL."

Shouldn't laugh but, she should have bought a Mercedes.

A woman in Australia has been killed by her pet camel after the animal may have tried to have sex with her.

To add to that, I really am not laughing. What a bizarre thing to happen.

how much would one of the dancers be ? ;)

Wally Wallington, a retired construction worker from Michigan, shows the whole world how the Stonehenge was built. He shows how it's so simple and just a matter of ingenuity and he does it alone and so easily too. He moves massive rocks with just the help of some smaller stones and a strapped-on pole. He uses a 'see-saw' principle and also gets the help of gravity. Watch him spin a massive barn on its base. This video is amazing!

Oh boy, it's even more fun when you click on both but not at the same time :)

trying to edit it but it's all going wronggggggggggggggggggggggggg

Blimey quadromania :)

Just back of my hols, folks, and what a time we've had.
Missed all the excitement and danger of the markets, but attempted to replace it by taking some lions for a walk in Mauritius.
No, really. I did.
Lions had a lot in common with my stockbroker and the markets, being savage predators and totally unpredictable, leaving you badly mauled just for a bit of sport or dragging you to the pack to have your bones picked clean, but it was fantastic fun and comes highly recommended for next time you pop out to Mauritius.
Anyway back to the humdrum of life, though the eldest daughter had a glimpse of my working day while we were in the Maldives as she went scuba diving with sharks. I have written to school proposing that this qualify as her work experience for when she leaves and joins the family business.
Good to be back.
Alan

Sounds good Alan! Gives a whole new meaning to lying on the beach...............lion on the beach?!

'savage predators and totally unpredictable, leaving you badly mauled '

I'm trying to have an extension and new kitchen built at present - that's a good description of the architects, builders and kitchen firms I've come across!

Is it just me, or has anyone else had similar problems?

This you, Alan?
