With your honed litheness?

Like a young slim non-camp Captain Jack!

He's not camppppp!

Or fat.

Next door have been having a continuous 9 hour rolling bbq that has only just finished.

Sounds like my neighborhood.

Do you or your neighbours ever work or is life in the US one long party? :D

From 3 PM Friday until well after dark on Sunday there is always a party going on at someone's house. Beer, swimming pools, shared meals and friendly sharing of household work. Last week we all helped a woman move her belongings and this morning we helped a guy lay new sod on his front yard. Now we're all heading out for dinner and drinks.

If I moved there do you think anybody would offer to clean my toilets?

Seriously, I think we could all make our neighbourhoods like that if we made the effort.

How did you know what I was doing?!!!! Have you a spy camera?
Anyway, the best of luck with the next stage.

Just preparing for my new life...

Ah. The joys of being divided by a common language but I will resist.

Drenched in sweat. It is Riley Minor's birthday today. She is nine and as a last hurrah before we move to subsistence only measures we gave her an iPod Touch for her birthday. It was left to me to sort it out as I have the mac of the many computers at Riley Towers. I wish I'd left it to spouse. The mac os is unfortunately too old to run the latest version of itunes so I had to default to a pc. The internet fell over. I went to check on the mac that it was still running and spouse helpfully turned the pc off in the thirty seconds I went upstairs. (Spouse is now buried under the patio.) Turned pc back and tried to find the relevant info from apple. Uploaded itunes okay. Tried to register an account only to be told that Riley Minor is too young to have her own account and the page promptly shut down. Reset up account. Tried to synch to ipod as per instructions. It failed because there was no internet connection. My defence is this is Apple's walk through guide. It tells you to set up the account first, then connect to the internet. It doesn't mention that unless you are connected to the internet you can't set up the account. Couldn't remember the internet password so had to go and dig up spouse who remembers these things. Finally connected to the internet. Success fully registered and got GPS locator thing working so we can hopefully find Riley at all times if she has the ipod with her. Tries to load music. Of course all music on the pc is in the wrong format as it has not been used for my ipod only the walkman so have to wait for everything to convert. Have to resort to secondary operating system (Riley Major. Teenagers do their uses) to copy and paste the CDs over and finally manage to synch the ipod. Riley Minor is currently singing her little heart out to the content of her ipod. Riley is going for a lie down to recover.

Went for a little jog round the block. Man stopped walking towards me, stood there applauding, leering, and shouting 'nice, nice' at me. Intimidating and humiliating. Never doing exercise again.

That's a sarcastic other half for you :D

Sootyj has been doing his Vanilla Ice impersonation at joggers.

But they all get angry when he gets to the

"ice ice" bit

That said sucks, some guys are complete shits. Give him a running kick in the nuts next time.

Ah, I wondered about the bass playing. Presumed the immense trousers were protection for any kicks in the nuts

What a prick.
Next time kick him hard in the balls and carry on running.

Agreed.
Has anyone ever actually kicked anyone in the balls? I imagine I'd just lose my balance and fall over and I certainly wouldn't want to be concussed and on the floor near this type of man

Ah, in that case, a swift knee to the groin would be better. Then you won't lose your balance.

N.B. someone who shouts like that isn't so much shouting at you as bemoaning his genuine and deep inadequance as a man.

And how the only lady to offer him comfort is mistress palm and her 5 daughters.
