as if their greatness needed underlining, my nan told me yesterday that she only buys the Buckingham Herald so she can read about what building work people are having done and who's in court for what.

i remember when my gran saw a punk walking down the road, she turned to me and said

"its amazing what you see when you haven't got your gun"  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Old people are just you in the future.

Some old people are so sweet, and you know you've made their day when you have held a door open for them or something. others are just plain grumpy and rude and i dont like them.

OF will be one of the rude grumpy ones :-))(

yeah i reckon so too actually!
what will you be?

I'll be like one of Harry Enfield or Paul Whitehouse.

i dont know who paul whitehouse?

 Whitehouse is on the left.

oh him!! i know who that is! is he a nice old man or grumpy?

A bit on the grumpy side......although I think its a mask for a soft and squidgy interior.

soft and sqidgy...i love that word squidgy...

i also like the word fork! its quality.

The single prong of a fork is known as a tine.....there's not a lot of opportunity for using the word.

yeah but surely the word for a single prong of a fork is a prong?

You'd have thought so but it merits its own term......I'd be good on Call My Bluff.

 I like the onomatopoeic word gunky.

yeah i reckon so...i watched supermarket sweep today. i'd be good at that game i reckon. why did they stop making it?

If you watched it...don't they still make it?....however  if you watched it on UK Gold or something.....then you'd be part of an elite group.

  Entering game shows is worth persuing you can make some decent money.

it was on challenge tv. it was an old programme. used to be on at 9:25 on itv if i remember right. or was it 12:25 cant remember but i loved it.
I was on chuckle island with the chuckle brothers when i was little. won prizes not money though  :(

I rate the Chuckle Bros.....winning prizes is good though.....someone has to win this stuff.

 Challenge TV has escaped me.

its only good for some bruce forsyth, family fortunes and crystal maze!

If you take it a bit seriously....there's money to be made.....the producers of these shows especially like female contestants because they tend to be in the minority.

    Young helps as well....because its mostly slightly older people who bother.

 If you're black, then its a shoo in to big bucks. ( I know you're not like Dex)

il keep that in mind! anyway sleep beckons!!

Don't forget to put Noo Noo out,

what a lovely chat between smeeters and marie there.

the word onomatopoeia is superb.

and i'll be a happy old man because of having lived such a fruitful life.

Just what i was going to say! Bet Smeeters enjoyed more mind, dubious chat up line of the 'tine/prong' but hey got the lady going...shame its your only female connection in years  :wink:

Judging from Reg's tales I'd imagine he's had more female connections than most of us put together  8)

I'm going to slip the word tine into a conversation.  Although how should it be pronounced?

Like "time" but with an "n"
or "teen" ?

haha good work walrus....id go for time but with an N?

Haha Reg is macking Marie!

Old people are superb. Unfortunately I no longer have any grandparents to marvel at anymore

My nan who died about 18 months ago had alzheimers. Before she moved into a home up here we had to go down and visit quite regularly.

One time my brother had cat slippers (if you understand) and my nan thought they were real and spent 20 minutes stroking and chatting to my brother's slippers!
