  1. Good luck Owl, i've a feeling you're going to be needing it, but remember, when all else fails, you can always get away with paying.
  2. Wan't you prototype was it Owl?????????????
  3. What's with the Owl at the start of the video Owl? He's not another Owl is he? We get all over.????
  4. Rubiks cube Owl? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-scotland-64442060
  5. I've always struggled with this, 16th, 17th, 18th centuries and they all thought the earth was flat but old Zeus made Atlas walk round with the world on his back, how did the ancients know before our more recent ancestors?
  6. I only want Saints down if we go up as it's a game I can get to.
  7. Owls were lucky, thought Fleetwood deserved a point to be honest Owl. Never mind the Toffees, it's the Saints I'd like to be playing next season if we can manage it.
  8. I had him at 11/4. It was a free bet so no actual money lost fortunately.
  9. Yes, Smith deserved it on the night, even though i'd money on Van Gerwen, grrrrrr.
  10. Here's a pic of my darts, ring any bells with anyone? I reckon you'd all forgot about these.
  11. Finished 0-0. Really wanted Orient to win, can't stand that Stevenage manager, horrible specimen.
  12. I'm watching Orient at the moment Owl. 0-0 just now v Stevenage.
  13. Merry Christmas Owl and to all the thread contributors.
  14. The going rate at the time was £200 but I got away with £100 so they probably had a bit of sympathy for me. The fine wasn't the worrying thing though, that was the Brewster Sessions when your licence was up for renewal and the coppers object. I got through that though but had to get up and bare my backside. Then I had them in again in the next pub but I think that was down to the ex-wife having grassed me up. Again, got around 40/45 in, big bang on the door so I manage to shhhhhh everyone up and I open the door. Copper says "Are you drinking in there?", "Yes" I tell him. Copper "How many you got in?" Me "Oh. only a few." Copper "Can I come in and have a look." Me "Gulp. yeah come in." My private door led behind the bar and 2 coppers come in. Sergeant and a Constable. Copper " Fxxx me, thy has got a few in ant da. Gi em another half hour and then gradually get em off home." Proper policing.
  15. That's a bit of a falsehood Owl. I know this for a fact as I had a couple of pubs previously and fell foul of the law. We'd been out all evening (Coach full from the pub) at Market Rasen races. Stopped off at Bawtry on the way home then back to my Pub when they pounced. I told them I'd had a good win at the races and I was buying/paying for all the drinks whilst they waited for taxis home. Didn't work although I thought it would. Bone Fide friends are allowed to stay and have a drink at your expense as landlord. The problem I had was there was around 50 people in the pub. Guilty as charged m'lud.???? I don't think the coach driver helped, he was hoping to service one of the local girls and came into the pub having parked up the side of the pub, never mind.????
  16. The Owls got lucky again Owl. Conceded a penalty in the last minute and the goalkeeper saved it. Pleased to see the Argies win the World Cup even though they were singing anti English songs. Can't help but feel we'd get along really well if it wasn't for the Falkland Islands, their loss. Did you get to see any of the WC, I know there was access problems where no broadcaster was prepared to pay for the privilege. Mildred has some talent with her art, without a doubt, but they are all a bit samey. That talent needs developing, get your hand down and get her some additional lessons. We all await close up pictures of Ting, is this something you'd consider or would that be an intrusion. Probably would be Tinging about it. Condolences reference the Avocado, i'm sure he or she will be missed.
  17. Could you make sure you tell them i'll be out all day on Thursday please Owl? The Owls got lucky, got the equaliser well into injury time. As far as England go, I reckon it's all that kneeling that's messing them up. Why don't they just concentrate on the football.
  18. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11688/10275474/football-league-play-offs-is-third-place-a-curse-or-is-that-a-myth Forgot to post the link.
  19. I'm a bit traditional Owl, I'd happily go back to 2 up and 2 down but I understand that just like the pussy needs feeding the cash cow needs milking. If these things don't happen, all sorts of stuff starts breaking down and going haywire. If the pussy is not fed, who can blame it for seeking nourishment elsewhere. And the cash cow? If it isn't milked, it will stop producing. I always thought the third placed clubs got a raw deal. They finish third, over 46 games and usually someone who finished below them gets promoted. This article is 6 years old but reckons 3rd placed teams have a 40% chance of going up, whilst the other 3 places have around a 20% chance. Still 40% against 60% though.
  20. Blue and White Striped Owl? I like it. It was a difficult watch on Saturday, The Owls that is, neither team threatened. We're after automatic promotion Owl, i'd see the play offs again as a bit of a failure as well as a lottery. I never mentioned food Owl. Not everything is fed food, some things need to be fed other stuff.????
  21. Yeah, she'll only wait so long. She's probably casting her net elsewhere now. Can't let it go hungry Owl, it needs feeding. Please enquire about her Aunty Annie next time you do see her and let us know if getting fed on a regular basis.
  22. Never met Cliff but once bumped into Hank Marvin in a hotel bar. After a few sherbets I asked him what the worst thing about his fame was. Quick as a flash he said, "Without a doubt, it's my name. Everytime I introduce myself I'm offered a sandwich."
  23. Well done Owl, put him back in his box.????
  24. I see that urine treatment you've embarked on is finally showing results.????
  25. They only play that game so they can kiss Fannys backside. https://petanque.wordpress.com/2012/07/04/fanny/
