Shoutbox

What's on your mind?
NewDave: What are you drinking to celebrate the demise of the orange pimple? Nov 6, 2020 19:39:55 GMT
walkingdecay: Orange squash. Nov 6, 2020 21:55:38 GMT
scorpiodog: Once again, I need the like button on shoutbox. Pete, that was inspired! Nov 7, 2020 16:43:19 GMT
andrewjw: Aperol spritz! Yippee!! Nov 7, 2020 17:24:00 GMT
NewDave: When did we stop buying stuff and start shopping it? I don't like it. It's like when they try and sell you a trouser. Nov 11, 2020 21:48:55 GMT *
NewDave: Oh. I get it. The point isn't the stuff. If it was just about stuff then when you had what you wanted or needed then you'd stop. The point is the shopping. If the aim of it is shopping then it doesn't have to stop. Shopping is the goal, not buying. Nov 11, 2020 21:51:30 GMT *
NewDave: I just made brussels sprout, butter bean and chickpea soup. In other news the Met Office has issued a gale warning. Nov 14, 2020 17:12:59 GMT
NewDave: I'm calling it. The Lego Batman is the best superhero movie. When Alfred fell off the Batplane I had to hold back a tear. About animated Lego. Nov 15, 2020 10:46:08 GMT *
Martin: Lego moves me to tears too...mainly when I tread on a rogue brick while barefoot 🦶 Nov 15, 2020 19:41:04 GMT *
NewDave: On the bright side - it wasn't a 3 pin plug. :faint: Nov 15, 2020 21:32:24 GMT
curmudgeon: Don't anthropomorphise computers - they hate that! Nov 20, 2020 19:09:17 GMT
martinrowe: Hah Nov 20, 2020 21:42:54 GMT
curmudgeon: I went to my doctor because I was finding it increasingly difficult to hear people. He asked me to describe the symptoms - I said They're a yellow cartoon family. Nov 21, 2020 11:02:41 GMT
ocarolan: :laugh: Nov 21, 2020 14:56:49 GMT
walkingdecay: Giving my wife an AA membership for Christmas. No car, but I heard on a commercial that they can get someone going in less than an hour. Nov 26, 2020 15:19:14 GMT
walkingdecay: I could have got a tenner for that gag in the old days. Nowadays it would be a terse little note telling me not to submit any more 'inappropriate material.' Nov 26, 2020 15:30:44 GMT
ocarolan: Is the RAC any more efficient, Pete? Nov 27, 2020 23:36:54 GMT
martinrowe: Good one Keith Nov 28, 2020 10:17:17 GMT
robmc: ... I tried your joke on my wife, she said 'I don't get it', so I said, 'neither do I' :coffee: Nov 28, 2020 17:06:44 GMT
curmudgeon: RIP Madonna, great pop singer, but I never knew she was such a great footbaler for Argentina. Nov 29, 2020 20:43:04 GMT
