One of his doctors had noted on his chart that 'patient is a little s.o.b'

What does my genius friend do in response? He writes 'well **** you too' underneath it, and then spent the next few days dying of embarrassment when someone gently points out to him that it stands for short of breath.

Juvenile Starlings are the feral estate kids of the bird world.

Noisy, aggressive, anti-social thugs.

Apparently Wednesday evening will be a good time to go shopping

Mr ms has been trying to perfect the fruit cake (Grandma's fruit cake), in order to present a perfect example at BIL's thanksgiving service tomorrow (which co-incidentally clashes with the ENG/SWE game, much to his distress!)

We are now on sunken fruitcakes #7 and 8. I fear we will be living off fruit cake until at least September.

I'm pretty sure fruitcakes are like lottery wins. Even poor ones are good & worth remembering. Win £10 and you are happy, earn £20 you are just tired.

Popped over to Sainsbury's Local. Coming back, one of the chaps from next door was stood on the pavement over the road with a bottle of beer in hand, chatting to some other bloke. He's the kind of chap that will shake your hand as well as saying hello, so I ended up stopping to do this, and inevitably being asked if I'd watched the football

I denied any such activity, thereby revealing that I am "not a football person, then?"

Other Bloke then asked whether, if they made it to the final, I'd watch it. Although he seemed pleasant enough, he was an unknown quantity, lacking all of his front teeth and had clearly been drinking for much of the afternoon, so I said I probably would, discretion being the better part of valour. They liked this, going "Aaah! Yes!" and clapping me on the shoulder and what have you, and thus I was able to make my escape with wishes for a pleasant evening

I won't
