That’s very kind of you to say Mags and Solo, thank you, I know I’ll be continuing in the same vein, this old dog is too old to go changing horses in mid stream.
Christ there’ll be no stopping’ them now, give them a pat on the back and they’ll be off like the galloping major.

sometimes here we are like monks - a silent order - we can even speak like this in silence! I do believe spittie for example has been in the loo for a week - it's his silent week for cleaning loos. and robert J is on bell cleaning duties - he climbed up there 2 wks ago and has now got the hump. what was that film with the bells and the hump - can't think of it - now I've got the hump. enough humps around here to make a camel!but heh we never let the well run dry - do we lads and lasses - we have now become a sistereen order and they have more humps than we do!

Hear hear Gummy.
Now for a sweet memory before I head off for a well deserved pint (I made the wife a cup of tea earlier)
I remember well that first day at Woodstock back in ’69, though a mere 23 year old slip of a lad I delivered my maiden speech to the assembled throng of ragamuffins, I was hot and thirsty and in a bold attempt to imitate Julius Caesar I began “Friends, Townies, and Countrymen, lend me your beers” I went on to say how the older generation had sneered at our music, our hair, our clothes, our way of talking and even our way of walking, that we should ignore the doddery old gits and hope we died before we got old, that we should all band together and stay together, sing in harmony, remember the generation who thinks together stinks together, and let us all beat as one big smelly heart”
Well I don’t have to tell you how that went down, they lapped up every syllable and I was invited to every “in” that was going, the love in’s, the drink in’s, the sit in’s, the lie in’s, and of course the naked swim in’s, indeed that first night I had to beat the wenches away from my tent. Ah yes those were the days.
No doubt you were attending some boring university getting further edumacation about that time Gummy.
