^^ obviously a quote there :lol:
Rag and Bone man – bloody hell that takes me back: memories of mum giving me a pile of old clothes to take out to the cart. Me being sorry for the horse and well chuffed with my new balloon, shaped like a snail with a smiley face and antennae (the balloon – not me!) God, I was easily pleased. :?
This guy was in an open top truck, it seems things have moved on… sadly!
I used to only to him when I was younger purely for the excitement of seeing the horse and if mum didnt have a sugar cube Id have some polo mints or anything I could grab (digestive biscuits went down well). Then when I got older and blagged my way into getting free horse rides in trade for mucking out at a local farm I got told off for the sugar cubes… :roll:
I almost hit the ceiling on sunday though… perhaps we had the earthquake down here a bit earlier than everywhere else!
/chuckles at you two :)
I remember those balloons Esme !!! they were never fully blown up ! and he would have other “gifts” but alas a balloon was always mine,as woolens were rattled down back then and knitted into something else.

You just can’t let it go can you [-X and there was me thinking we had moved on.
“The Herald doesn’t permit posting and copying and I was buggered if I was going to let this get in the way of sharing what was in essence a relevant contribution to the debate.”
“I didn’t quote the newspaper in question for one big fat reason – they don’t allow representation of their articles in any way shape or form”
Well actually it does:
“except that you may reproduce reasonable extracts of any contribution to the community without our prior permission for non-commercial purposes provided that you deal fairly with the material and you properly accredit any original work to its author and the name of this site.”
Says guess who? The Sunday Herald“To have pinpointed the author would have been to have headlined my swiping from a newspaper which does not approve. Do you need this spelled out for you in neon lights? How stupid are you?”
Obviously not as stupid or abusive as you.
Indebted to you once again, fek. Your thorough and obsessive research has ensured that I can rest easy from prosecution by The Sunday Herald for swiping the article on Bridgend. Not only that, but I can now copy and paste everything from the crossword to the obituaries with uninhibited glee.
My literary style (and plaudits) being so glaringly lacking – notice how I can barely string a credible sentence together on my own – I waited a lifetime to suck the lifeblood and several paragraphs from Torcuil Crichton of The Sunday Herald, certain that my cunning plan would win me both the Nobel prize for literature AND the undying fervent admiration of the half dozen JCers clamouring to read Current Affairs & Serious Posts of a Sunday lunchtime.
At the very least, I deserve a damned good lynching from a high and sturdy oak. Although, in truth, I rather fancy myself nailed to a cross, with a crown of thorns perched at a jaunty yet alluring angle.
Have I ‘not let it go’ enough for you, ickle fekker? Or shall I continue? Because, as long as you continue to question my integrity I’ll be right here in your little po-face, making you look smaller and more stupid and more anally retentive, with every unpoached, unfilched, uncopied, unpasted word.
I hope I make myself clear. Now if you genuinely want to move on, then get out of my way, there’s an article on sheep-mange I want to pinch from The Farming Gazette.I must compliment you ladies, both on the size of your handbags …. and the accuracy with which you swing them !!!!
what a load of bolognaise
Has anyone e-mailed the Sunday Herald to see what they think of all this… 8)
