Not quite in keeping with the original thrust of the thread, but that Beefy & Lamby advert that's running at the minute really does make it look like the cartoon Ian Botham is bumming the cartoon Allan Lamb. Maybe it's a privilege of his knighthood or something...

I don't think I "got" that film, perhaps I hadn't consumed enough drugs at the time. It's one of those films that falls into the "bought it for £2.99 in an HMV sale because Everyone Should Have Seen It and have left it to gather dust on the shelf ever since" category for me. See also "The Straight Story", "Withnail & I" etc.

Points docked for the "Eye", but otherwise a good effort.

Used to muck in at Oxfam during school/uni holidays when my mum worked there. Sat at the till and pressed buttons. The old dears loved me. Never done any really full-on stuff though. When he's not being a student, my better half does admin for his uni's voluntary services unit, so he helps to arrange voluntary work. Am I allowed to bask in the reflected glory of that one?

Thought it was OK myself. Slightly over-zealous on the stewarding side, but where isn't these days?

I worked nights quite a lot when I was freelancing, either because I wanted to or because I'd been lazy all day, and I could happily do so again. I'd miss the days though. </wistful>

Good work mate.

Yep lying here naked covered in shot glasses Count me in then.

A noble sacrifice.

Drinks are on you then.

Nerd but true.

I'm not sure, most of the 'lower-classes' are either emaciated or very toned. I'd be willing to bet it's the middle-classes who are fatter. Balls. I'll take you up on that bet. Would you describe yourself as middle-class? Bastard. You know I like you really. I've never even seen you to judge your weight, anyway. What are you on about man, that's the best kind of judgement!

hoi....climb down off that big high horse MR.....and yes I do occasionally say "hoose", depending on who I am talking to I tailor my language accordingly We can only imagine Radgi's phone conversations to her like-minded Felling linguists Imagine what it must be like after a bucket of Jack!!!! I'm confused....I'm a Geordie, sometimes we say "hoose" if we are using our "broad Geordie accents" sometimes I say house, sometimes I say "abode" sometimes I say...ahhh what the hell, doesn't matter (and it's nothing to do with being from the "Felling" !!) You live on a canal?

hoi....climb down off that big high horse MR.....and yes I do occasionally say "hoose", depending on who I am talking to I tailor my language accordingly What do you if there's a moose loose in it? Crivens. the dog will get it ... That's "dug" to you. I didn't spend a childhood getting Broons/Oor Wullie annuals every bloody Christmas for nothing, you know.

http://www.theauldhoose.co.uk/ This is the only use of the word "hoose" I'll tolerate. (I was going to say "let loose", but thought better of it for fear of triggering a Fruit Pastilles/"Hoots Mon" moment.) (EDIT: Or was it Wine Gums? Ah bollocks.) (EDIT #2: Too late anyway! )

Give the man a little respect, pleeeease.

she's par for the course tbh, nice looking, good laugh and two faced anyhoo Scott me lad, I've never heard of you having even kissed a girl so lets keep it all quiet on the western front Scott keeps his love life under wraps. I for one am happy about that. Especially at lunch time. Because I'm eating one, when I first read this my mind went immediately to Scott burying his lover under a pile of Fajitas Your lass was canny nice by the way. Looked like the type who would give SMO short shrift, which automatically gets my vote. Female? Breathing?

Hmmmm You all knows ya love 'em 'Mummy mummy, I HATE sister's guts.' 'Well leave them on the side of your plate, then.'

I'm thinking more along the lines of "Joey" from Friends Only without the wit, intelligence, or looks. In true Achhhhhrington Stanleh style, "exachhhleh!"

Given the quality of snakey's jokes, I wouldn't be taking that compliment too seriously.

Much the same here. Grr.

The delicatessen? you turned right instead of left .... Story of his life tbh

The delicatessen?

Well, live-ish. Pretty much cemented Newsround's place in every 80s kid's memory though (and quite a few adults' too I imagine).

I blame the News of the World. Worried about peodophills? Make your kids so fat that even the dirtiest old man couldn't fancy them!
