if only!!!

they like the sound of their own voices too much and have never had a listener talk on their show, I much preferred Porky and Townsend before them and still rue the day Jon Gaunt was sacked, A very poor decision by TS. :(

Mine is the piece of shite that masquerades as a bike (yup, still have a bike :Very Happy ) DIM "oh the fact that it hasn't got a stand is irrelevant they don't need to have a stand"....yea so I have to keep hefting the thing into place against a wall, a hedge, anything else that will take the weight of a small car....how many times does it fall over, slide away...mail going everwhere...errr....every time you hear me curse "you f'ing useless piece of sh*t!!! AARRGGGH

But then that serene smile beams across my face to those lovely customers :cool

Do I talk to myself when out on delivery? I asked msyelf this very question when I was out delivering this morning. Unfortunately I was talking to myself at the time, so didn't hear what my answer was.


And it isn't good when someone catches you doing it!!

Parry and Graham always made me laugh especially when they starting slagging each other off over their personal lives. Can't stand the current two always sucking up to their sports 'mates' and arranging golf holidays.
