The blog party is confirmed for Saturday, 16th August. You're welcome to come and to stay over - but if you're staying more than a couple of nights, it would be better to make it the week leading up to the party please, as I'm keeping my options open for the second half of August!

No turn unstoned
Regarding those Somalian pirates, the chaps on Channel 4 news had a fine time. In the space of a few minutes, they referred excitedly to the pirates' lair, their booty, a motley crew, their ill-gotten gains, having blasted pirates out of the water and hot pursuit. The only cliché unuttered was Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum and you could see they were terribly tempted.

All posts have been transferred to razorbladeoflife.co.uk and I normally blog there. However, it isn't available at present, so I'm back to blogspot If you want to email me, my address is on my profile.
However, I am not interested in sponsored posts, reviews or any commercialising of this blog, which I write entirely for pleasure, so please do not write and ask.
Yes, I thought that. And I didn't think much of them describing Shannon Mathews as "tethered", either.
ReplyDeleteShiver me timbers!
ReplyDeleteha ha ha!
ReplyDeleteNope. Still nothing witty from this corner.
ReplyDeleteWhat no 'aaar Jim lad' either?
ReplyDeleteThey just weren't trying.
No, they took 'kid' a bit literally.
ReplyDeleteDave, you're leaving the witticisms for the others for a change? We may have to tip you the Black Spot.
No, just a bit off colour and mind not at cutting-edgedness.
ReplyDeleteThe BW Party will be enabling The Media to become rather more balanced. Good news and bad news days will alternate, with the eventual aim of only having good news days, because there won't be any bad news.
ReplyDeleteDarling BW, you and Dave should get together and then you can cheer him up. It would be no hardship for you, as he is excellent company. And his jokes are not off-colour even when he is.
ReplyDeletethey'd already drunk it...
ReplyDeleteBW is a bit ambitious, isn't she?
ReplyDeleteI suspect they'd had a bet on how many pirate-related words they could get into the script while they emptied the bottle.
ReplyDeleteShe is, Dand, though I detect a slight cheek-bulge there too.
