Talking of signs, I wish they were easier to post on here apart from having to use sick-bucket which I find totally user-unfriendly !

I have a file on my HD with j.peg funny signs, some of which are hilarious.

If anyone would like to post them, I'd gladly forward the best ones to you by email !

yeah keep'em coming...

does anyone know if sick-bucket falls over if you put too many pics on?

see now this is directly related to the thread, but not relevant, and by posting it I'm encouraging an even less relevant answer. So should I post an advert here for the people reading this thread to go somewhere else to find my question and hopefully answer it? Doesn't seem very practical to me. but I don't want to be bad and divert the thread. any suggestions gratefully accepted, post them... here? no, in the divert thread? yes, how about there. I'll ask the slightly bad question here and please post replies to the divert thread. Just hope you all choose the same one as there are two with identical names. Maybe I'll go there now and post a 'here I am' post so you'll know you're in the right place? Yes, I'll do it. See you there.

I have started a new thread so that JR and I don't end up hijacking another thread.

JR keep them coming and I will keep them posting

A little bit of American English amused me.

All to often the referee is, from the viewer's point of view, wrong with a capital W. One spectators comment was repeated as follows:

she yelled that the ump should, "Get his ophthalmologically challenged cranium ablated from his gluteus maximus because the trumpery he'd perpetrated was bovine defecation."


(The author then commented about the dangers of getting into a clinch with the young lady)

I must learn that for the next footy match I attend. (Probably next Tuesday evening !)

If you do use it then (I think it is from the same author) then" the defecation will meet the rotating cooling device"



Egad I would need the innermost phrontistery to enter to compete enow with the logorrhea or adimpleate gelogenics, I being but a poor grammaticaster I've always wanted to use some of those words from a Canadian source!
