LOL, you're not worthy of licking dog shit off the soles of his shoes Mebbe, but you’re not worth frenching the shankster to clean his mouth afterwards. That made more sense in my head, TBH.

Pish, tosh, tommyrot & balderdash. It’s early here. It’s a Saturday evening over there. But, do you really think the Mockers Pantheon punch in and out? A.

That is a really interesting read, thanks! Guy I used to work with was similar, he was ranked but not at the top and so gave it up to become an engineer when he was early 20s It’s rumoured JTB was once ranked No.1 in interpretive dance in Wales.

My issue is he’s like my annoying mate: he comes into the pub, often late, and is suddenly a vocal expert on Saracens, but the discussion was about Rugby League.

Mog, given a) your defence of protesters making bellends of themselves at literary events, heritage locations, etc., because (in the former case) the main sponsor / enabler invests 2% of its dosh into fossil fuels, and b) I imagine that, with very little research and effort, you could ensure that 2%...

What do the boreds fiscal and foreign policy experts think about Nige's recent pledge to cancel UK membership of the World Economic Forum? It's bollocks. We’re not members.

Did anyone watch him as the patriarch of the Getty mob in Trust ? One of the only TV things I’ve seen him in, and he was brilliantly twisted.

Trick or Treating.

Not because we might chance upon the odd ‘dirty old man’ in the village (of which there were many, according to my folks)

Because it was ‘begging’.

Oh, and paternal advice that deviated from “smack em in’mouth, son”

At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it. Isn’t that the opening paragraph of One Hundred Years of Solitude ..?
