General drivel.

It's the training that counts!

FIFTY SHADES OF GREY - (a husband's point of view)

The missus bought a Paperback,

down Shepton Mallet way,

I had a look inside her bag;

... T'was "Fifty Shades of Grey".

Well I just left her to it,

And at ten I went to bed.

An hour later she appeared;

The sight filled me with dread...

In her left she held a rope;

And in her right a whip!

She threw them down upon the floor,

And then began to strip.

Well fifty years or so ago;

I might have had a peek;

But Mabel hasn't weathered well;

She's eighty four next week!!

Watching Mabel bump and grind;

Could not have been much grimmer.

And things then went from bad to worse;

She toppled off her Zimmer!

She struggled back upon her feet;

A couple minutes later;

She put her teeth back in and said

I am a dominater !!

Now if you knew our Mabel,

You'd see just why I spluttered,

I'd spent two months in traction

For the last complaint I'd uttered.

She stood there nude and naked

Bent forward just a bit

I went to hold her, sensual like

and stood on her left tit!

Mabel screamed, her teeth shot out;

My god what had I done!?

She moaned and groaned then shouted out:

"Step on the other one"!!

Well readers, I can't tell no more;

About what occurred that day.

Suffice to say my jet black hair,

Turned fifty shades of grey.

Pub news.

Busy in the pub today. The usual crowd were in, supplimented by the usual Saturday lot, who were at a vintage car and bike rally at the pub around the the corner from where I live yesterday! I didn't know about it!!

My Sunday lunch was up to it's usual high standard, so I'm stuffed!

Garden news.

Spring has finally arrived with a sudden riot of colour!

The Cherry looks good, albeit a good 3 weeks late.

The Magnolia hasn't disappointed either. Again, a good 3 or 4 weeks late.

Joke Tuesday.

FW: Sausages

Everyone seems to be in such a hurry to scream 'racism' these days.

A customer asked, "In what aisle could I find the Irish sausage?"

The assistant asks, "Are you Irish?"

The guy, clearly offended, says, "Yes I am. But let me ask you something. If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?

Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German?

Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish?

Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?

Or if I asked for Polish sausage, would you ask if I was Polish?"

The assistant says, "No, I probably wouldn't."

The guy says, "Well then, just because I asked for Irish sausage, why did you ask me if I'm Irish?"

The assistant replied, "Because you're in Halfords."

Pub news.

Just had a fantastic lunchtime laugh in the pub. My usual mates were in, but then I was surprised by an old mate and his wife, who I hadn't seen for 15 years! He said he hadn't seen me in my "wheels". Well, that's 13 years ago, so I reckon it's longer than that.

They said they'll be in next Saturday. Can't wait!

General drivel.

Couldn't resist it!
