We're laughin'
Permalink  
 


Just wanted to say I have laughed out loud several times tonight and it feels really good. I am really enjoying getting to know folks on this board, and especially enjoy it when folks share their sense of humour.


We have all come a long way, and to be able to smile through things today, sure beats drinking, and makes it all a heap easier, I reckon.


It is good to have a safe place to just be. Unload our worries or share bits of our lives that are bugging us or bringing us joy. I have really come to appreciate this board.


I dunno where my ratbag mate Stan is tonight, but I have enjoyed laughing with him of late. I have just learned he is British, so that has only made me smile even more. I keep getting visions of that guy from "Are you being served"....


Maybe Stan's off making friends or something...


Really enjoyed Johns twelve step call. That was just so good.


I loved the way he described the motley crew. It is funny, I think... how we are all over the world...living totally different lives, and yet we each have the one common denominator that makes everything else okay. It's a good feeling... really makes me feel a part of things beyond my own little square.


Thanks for being there everyone.


Keep smiling!


Nic

Oh bugger!! My rep is shot to shit.

Which guy from Are You Being Served?
Young Mr Grace - well I've got my own hair thank you
Captain Peacock - the pretentious sycophant? Not the regimental type, sorry
John Inman? - "are you free?" Bend over please
The young handsome guy who is always asking after Mrs Slocombe's pussy?

I seriously don't know. I used to have an identity but I really don't know who I am now: a biker but now I drive a Volvo station wagon; an outlaw but I went straight in the seventies and gave up smoking weed in the summer; the fattest person in the "Legs Bums and Tums" class; chartered accountant without a suit that has not worn a collar and tie for many many years either; drug-free hippy; middle aged teenie bopper; celibate sex-maniac; sober pisshead.

Nic you sound like you should have your own comic strip.

Phil - your own comic (the strip is not recommend under current climatic conditions).

Twas very nice of you to think of me Phil! Today was much better, as roaring heat here generally always leads to a storm, so today has been steamy, but cooler. Somewhere up north, they can (like; put it in a tin) Sunshine for our less fortunate members of the Commonwealth. I will see if I can find you some.


Well Phil....Ta ta - I got. Pip Pip!?!?!?! Noooo idea. What on earth does pip pip mean, Stan?


You two have been chinwaggin on the phone? What a riot that would be... Emotional? Tears of laughter, you mean? Has me laughing out loud at the thought of it... Was it full of "What?" 's "Pardon" 's , and "Um, Say again, over." 's


Stan - it was definately John Inman - and this is the line that kept running through my head... he said it as he stepped in the lift.


 "Ladies Underwe-ar. Goooing dooown!"


Now Stan, it seems you have finally revealed the real problem....


You SOLD the BIKE !?!?


For a VOLVO????


*falls flat on floor and gasps for a glass of water*


What were you thinking????

Sorry Nic

The bikes kept getting stolen. I lost a Triumph Bonneville and Yamaha DT250 that way. Someone tried to steal my Suzuki T250 but they got 50 yards on it before giving up trying to get it started.

I keep looking at bikes and thinking about getting one for the summer but that would be a really cliched mid life crisis statement - and I couldn't get any leather jeans in my size.

The Volvo is cool, man. It should be it has air conditioning. The in-car entertainment features over 600 CDs played through six speakers. The leather seats are very sexy when driving with no clothes on. It also has a powerful heater, being designed for use in the Arctic Circle duirng a Swedish Winter. From soaked and frozen to toasted in about 5 minutes. 180 bhp turbo leaves most behind at the lights. Highest speed I have done in it is 140. The top opens so you can feel the wind in your hair, and the best bit is you dont have to wear a helmet to drive one.

When I get back from Italy I want to sell it and buy a camper van. A John Inman of the automotive world?
