RMweb Gold big jim Posted May 27, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 27, 2018 There's been some thug called Carl going round breaking in to people's houses near me for months, but the police couldn't catch him. The weirdest thing about it all is he was breaking into people's houses just to ruin their washing machines by putting bricks in to them & turning them on!!!!! Really weird if you ask me... Anyway, he was caught and extradited from the country.. So glad he’s been caught after all, washing machines live longer with Carl gone There, is that less offensive? On a similar vain Just found out My mate Gavin died from indigestion last week, I can’t believe gav is gone 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebottle Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Sorting some of my books the other day, I came across my copy of John Hunt's "The Ascent of Everest". I received this as a prize at the end of my last school year at Newcraighall primary, in 1954, before we moved down to South Yorks. I greatly enjoyed reading this, finding the detailed descriptions of the mountain landscape and the climbing techniques and equipment used informative and interesting. It didn't awake any ambitions in me to be a climber, though; I still regard mountaineers as brave, skilful and mad. Looking at the illustrations in the book now, however, I can see things I hadn't noticed before. In the attached copy of the picture of the summit can be seen a human face, partly hidden by snow. This has a gentle expression, kind and wistful, as though it's one of the Buddhist gods whom the Sherpas believe to dwell atop the mountains. And, perhaps going from the sublime to the ridiculous, is that a pair of rock guitarists perched farther down the slopes?? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastwestdivide Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Looks like Dick Dastardly & Muttley have abandoned their flying machines for a class 37. In a second, the hatches on the bonnet will flip open and one of those extendy hand grabber things will come out, only to be knocked off by a low bridge: 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Northroader Posted May 28, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 28, 2018 Way back, we were doing trials on the carbon brushes of the electrical machinery that lived in the nose of a type 4, (class 40) and so headed off down the ECML from Gateshead. Somewhere past Low Fell, the nose clamshell doors flew open, as somebody had forgotten to secure the catch. Rolling along at over 60, with an overbridge coming up about quarter mile in front, me and my mate dives down from the cab, through the door into the nose end and making a grab to pull the doors back down into guage before we got to the bridge. Just made it, but we didn’t catch any pigeons. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peanuts Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Another typical Bank Holiday at the seaside! I witnessed absolutely disgusting behaviour down at the beach. I saw a man and woman having an almighty argument in front of a load of kids. Suddenly the woman smacked the guy on the head and it all kicked off. There was a massive brawl and someone called the police. A single copper turned up and started on the bloke with his truncheon. The guy managed to snatch it from him and began to assault both the copper and the woman. Then, out of nowhere, a crocodile crept up and stole all of the sausages........ sickening.

When you think about it, if someone proposed Punch and Judy as kids' entertainment now, they'd be locked up. It has given rise to some excellent fictional interpretations though, such as Ben Aaranovitch's Rivers of London, an aside in Jasper Fforde's The Fourth Bear, and the very amusing (for those with a certain sense of humour) low-budget British, post-Hammer horror flick Funnyman.
