..................agricultural damage and secure livestock. Pigs might fly.

Turning the English around. If going out for something my Thai wife says 'For what ' , I would say " What for ". Which is better ?

There was an episode of Married with children a few years ago when they all went to England and Kelly had a book titled English to English.

About 2 weeks ago me and 'er indoors went to Tesco Lotus for lunch , for a change not KFC but wanted the food hall next door. I had to endure cabbage soup , well a little bit of it. Disgusting.

Big storm up here in the far north last night , thunder , lightning and very heavy rain , never seen it as bad before.

My Panasonic shaver came from 7/11. Has Panasonic batteries in , cheap batteries and it fails to work.

Big storm last night up here about as far north as one can get. One tree stuck in the gate another bush went flying across the lawn. Had to go round closing all the windows , power went off 3 times so went to bed. At least the mountains are back in view and the air fresher.

You reminded me ; Lemon meringue pie , oh how I loved that. Roast beef oh a Sunday , I loved the burnt bit on the end. As for first sex. It was only with me but I soon got the hang of it.

I have to agree with many of the above. Mine ? Parrafin heater in the bathroom. Chapped legs in the winter from wearing shorts. Before Corona the fizzy drinks man brought Neptune . Gran and Grandad arriving on Boxing day. Train spotting . Cod liver oil and malt , loved it. The misery of trying to make snowballs when wearing woolen mittens. Eating sandwiches while watch a real steam roller at work. Not being allowed out to play on a Sunday . Bonfire night when I was about 13 and kissing Jennifer Parsons who lived next door. YES ! that awful radiogram. Playing 78s with a needle in the pickup arm. Guess my age from the above .

Up here in Maechan there is an off licence that sells several beers , some from japan and some from Lao. I buy their Beerlao , not cheap maybe at 70 B for a small botle but so much better than Chang at 50 for a large one. None left in the fridge , must call in for a brew for tonight as the sun sets behind the smog.

Why creature , why not say snake ?

Just a thought , if God is a Christian god why are there lightning conductors on church steeples ? Lightning is an act of god.

my answer would be ' are they poisonous ?' I have no intention of eating one to find out.

Wot 'e said. What a great day for putting a cucumber through the vicar's letterbox and saying the Martians have landed.

I have a Makita hedge trimmer and a Black & Decker grass strimmer both excellent. Funny thing is I was outside an hour ago with my first cuppa and I thought I must cut the hedge tonight.
