    That one does remind me of the program I saw last night with Rhod Gilbert learning to be a dustman on Barry Island. He was out with the council dog poop patrol when they shared this little gem with him.

    "We found what we though was dog mess down on the front, but we wasn't sure. So I stuck me finger in and tasted it. Thats not tulip I said, it's chocolate. So he stuck his finger in and tasted and says No, that's not chocolate, it's tulip. Ah I says, good job we didnt tread in it then."


    I love him, missed that prog. Am going to try to find.

    And yes, even as a new-ish parent I am still bored rigid by a lot of the kiddy talk. I am of course subject to more of it now I am one of 'them'.

In fact in 5 years of posting here I think I can count on one hand the number of times I've taken a proper pop at an individual poster. If I dont want to read someones particular brand of bollocks on here I don't have to.

      It was a general comment about those people you meet IRL whose only topic of conversation is their kids, and who insist on regaling you with stories about how wonder full little Tarquin or Annabel are, and how advanced they are for their age and how they are going to give them violin lessons for their 2nd birthday because they like the theme tune to "In The Night Garden".
      Point taken!

      Are you having a crappy day Dave?
      Here have a guinny hug
      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

            I was having my dinner

            Good job I am not as needy as the OP - although I do recall throwing my toys out of the pram in a similar manner a while back

            still good to see nothing has changed although I sometimes feel left out cos no one insults me - except for DA for some reason

              No more than usual, just a bit tired and irritable today. But thanks for asking

                  I have thought for some time that you are a bit of a dickhead actually.

                      Although I have to be honest I was expecting some slightly wittier insults from the intellectual high brow who post on here....
