Essex girl jokes have been around as long as I can remember....way before that TV drivel.

What do Essex girls put behind their ears to make them attractive?
Their ankles. :D

Why can't Essex girls drive a car?

When they get in they lay on the backseat :)

WBMT is why some psycholists ride with no lights, after dark, on the go-faster bars at speed. Poor sod hit the road ripples (which have been there for months) and went flying. Mrs Nod walked him home (he turned out to be one of her Yoga students!) with a suspected broken collar bone. Arse up, head down, mind in neutral.

Indeed. I don't like the battery powered lights. I always had a dynamo on my bicycles. Light would always be ready with a bit of pedal power.
 
What Baffled me today

Why a person driving a car was happy to do 23mph in a 60 until I decided I wanted to overtake and then would not leave me alone at 55 / 60 on the same road? Baffled :confused:
 
Bloody energy suppliers! They baffle me alight!
What is it with them anyway?
For years I was paying around £70/ month combined, then the past 18 months its been creeping up to over £90,
although I told them that they were refunding me even at £70 so why increase it?

I've just had my "Annual review" its seems that just over £60 / month combined is now sufficient to break even, by next year :rolleyes:
 
This is from a few of days ago.

A report (from a BBC reporter, not a feed from another network) on BBC Breakfast about the forest fire in Alberta said the area covered by the fire was about half the size of Mexico City! What's the point of giving a comparison to somewhere that the vast majority of the UK have never visited and almost certainly have no idea of its size? It would not that difficult to have found a comparison with a British city.

WBMT?
My neighbour has "Baby Shower" flags and banners, displayed in their windows and on their doors.
FFS! do they really have to advertise the fact that they are washing the kid?
 
Clearly they need to - I presume folk have been complaining loud and long, about the not very nice perfume that the little one is wearing :)

Now everyone will know they can forget the clothespegs for their noses when they visit

A good way to get some free presents that nobody wanted to keep themselves. Just wait until the little alien is born, if they hold a baby shower I wouldn't be surprised if it has a bald head with one of those stupid hair band things with a fake flower on it. I honestly can't believe that anyone would think that that looks nice.

Like the "frog pose" and other contorted positions that seem to be fashionable for the album these days!
What's wrong with nekid shots in the bath, or sitting on the potty, to embarrass them with at their 18th ?
Works for me :D

Oh please I know the answer to that, and can provide a link to a website that has lots of pictures showing how it is done :P

hehehe One of my favourites is my eldest who was on her potty behind the 1200m high sign for some mountain in Switserland. I can't wait to start a slide show of those and many more embarrising ones everytime a boy is being discussed :P

Why people pick up their dog crap and then think it's fine to throw the plastic bag into the trees or hedge.Better to leave it than do this MORONS.
Click to expand...
They think dog crap is disgusting, and they want to leave it where it fell, but they're in an area with fines for doing that, and someone is watching them... :shifty: :cautious:
So, they grit their teeth and bag it like responsible citizens, but as soon as there's no witnesses... *ugh!*:puke:*fling*
 
What baffles me even more is the people employed by a local council employed to spray paint dog mess to highlight the blight, but when a local resident does the same, he's prosecuted for graffiti-ing.
 
Hopefully it's fluorescent paint nothing worse than treading on a turd in the dark.

What happened to the days where it always turned white?

It didn't all turn white.
You don't see it much anymore because it was the high content if bone meal in crappy dog food that resulted in poop that turned white and crumbled quickly.
They don't make dog food that way anymore.
 
My lad has just had a peperoni pizza for tea, full of grease and cheese, finishes and walks into dining room to watch Car SOS and I say have you washed your hands....Err no I have put them in my pockets instead....:confused: so his greasy hands are now in his pockets.......Get em washed.....off he goes mumbling....

Well he's 10 I suppose.......:clap:

You need a dog, that'll soon lick his hands clean, or if its a long coat he can just wipe his hands down its back :thumbs:

Give it a few more years, food residue will be bottom of the list for him having his hands permanently in his pockets!
 
Yesterday the anchors on the Transocean Winner, the rig that ran aground on the west coast of Lewis, were being raised so it can towed to Turkey for scrapping.

It ran aground when it was on the way between Norway and Turkey. I can't understand how it can be more economical to transport it to Turkey rather than scrap it in Norway, or even just across the North Sea in Scotland. Given the low oil prices I can't see the fabrication yards being too busy building rigs; can't they scrap rigs too?

I clearly do not understand global business.

Probably the difference in cost of wages and recycling / disposal in Norway against Turkey. Same reason there are beaches in India where they run old ships aground to be cut up.

Not India, Bangladesh. The beaches north of Chittagong are full of them. Most of the workers are kids.
 
The instruction manual to works new "Buffalo Commercial Microwave oven" (official name from front of instructions) which on page 3 state This is not intended for commercial use. Hmmmmm
