Post by: fireftrm on June 28, 2005, 12:04:32 AM: No, clearly just for the Outer Hebrides. What a bizarre question, what made you think it might be a forum for just one area, let alone just one country? If you look through you will find posts from all around the UK and even worse, posts from foreign places - whatever is the world coming to?

" I hope I never ridicule what is wise or good. Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can."

Post by: colin todd on December 06, 2005, 01:01:15 AM: Davey, Allow me to make you the first person to receive this year's C S Todd and Associates calendar. Would you like tastefully clad girls or Scottish scenes. I shall want an FBU diary in return.

Post by: dave bev on December 06, 2005, 07:31:13 PM: mr todd - your package would be welcome in my kitchen!

Post by: Paul on December 06, 2005, 11:23:48 PM: As red as old Santa's coat.

Post by: colin todd on December 07, 2005, 01:02:15 AM: Typical Union man. Never reads the text before firing off. Did you want tastefully, but skimpily, clad girls or Scottish country scenes. And do you want the calendar sent to your office or home. These are simple question, on which you will not need to ballot the bruvvers.

Post by: dave bev on December 07, 2005, 10:22:20 AM: mr todd. i did assume that the question was retorical! i think you could have safely assumed i would have deposited the tastefully but skimpily clad girls into the nearest waste container!

head office would be good - i can pick it up on monday/tuesday next week

thanks

wee b - perhaps mr t will show you his one day?

smiffy - stop it, youre only encouraging them!

Post by: colin todd on December 07, 2005, 01:54:21 PM: Davey, You do believe in drip feeding info dont you. I have just had to phone ''The kremlin'' to get the address. They take AGES to answer the phone. Are you overworking the proletariat switchboard operators. Also, you know I am not one to complain, but when I gave what I imagined would be the normal salutation of 'Up the revolution'' the girl failed to give any form of revolutionary response. Anyhow I got the address, and so have put you on the list. (No not THAT list, the one for Scottish country scenes calendar.) I trust that Wee B treats the good honest working class girls on our girly caleandar with more respect than you intended to, as we have sent him the girly one.
