Send Three And Fourpence ...

Gness : "What do you think about all these Backwoods Tories who are going to vote for the next PM?"

Dave (not hearing question at all as he was just entering room) : "I'm going for a shower, now"

Gness (not hearing Dave as he was just entering room) : "I think an IQ test first would be best"

Dave : "splutter"

So that Dave is able to take his shower:

An intelligence test for Irishmen ;-)

Imagine the confused conversation between friends of mine (man and wife) when she reminded him that they were going to see Billy Joel and he heard it as 'Village Hall'. Went on for some minutes, apparently. She does have a strong Burnley accent to be fair.

ZM's post reminds me that my mother spent her childhood believing that the King was fond of plums because it clearly said so in the National Anthem. ("Send him Victorias . . . ")

;-)

Thanks, Chris. I'll add those to the "before you use the shower" questions we've spent a good few minutes making up and amusing ourselves with.
I can hear that, Zacs. :-)

My two Scottish aunties many years ago.
Aunt Jean. Jessie, when you're in town bring some more of these threads.
Aunt Jessie. But it's not Easter, Jean, and why do you want Easter Eggs anyway?

ZM, says more about your friend's hearing than it does about his wife's strong Burnley accent. In my most unbiased opinion, of course:-)

tut, all the talk about conservation and dave and gness aren't sharing showers . . .

Our Father who art in heaven, Harold be thy name...

art was substituted with farts at my school

[gness]

Would you want to be in the shower nose tucked into Dave's navel, Ael?

[aelmpvw]

;-))

[aelmpvw]

and here was me thinking it was the rendition of Nessun Dorma a la Brian Blessed that put you off . . .

[sunny-dave]

"nose tucked into Dave's navel"

Saves bending over to pick up the loofah ...

[gness]

He stopped doing that when I locked him in and he had to squeeze out the little window, Ael.

[albaqwerty]

Navel gazing is an acceptable pasttime , anything else is below the belt surely?

[gness]

Only if it's your own navel, Albs....the navel of another person is decidedly odd.

[albaqwerty]

I vaguely remember having adult fun with Mr Alba's navel back in newly wed years :)))

[Buenchico]

This thread is helping me lose weight - because the thought of Dave in the shower has definitely put me off my lunch ;-)
