Oh for the good old days when young whipper snappers had to respect their elders and betters. I can see the time is coming when you cheeky young buggers will need reporting to age concern. But don't get yourselves all stressed out - I'll arrange counselling for you. I'm thoughtful that way.

Jamesinashby 3542 Report post Posted March 16, 2020 Sorry M8. It will be 1940s therapy. A slap round the back of the head and kick up the arse. They were the good old days. How I enjoyed them. That's why I'm addicted to the sessions with the whipping games I have with the Mrs in our bedroom games. Put your hands over your eyes if you read this Taz, I don't want you being corrupted.

Jamesinashby 3542 Report post Posted March 16, 2020 My first day of staying in my home and it has dragged. If, as the 3 stooges at there daily meeting suggest I have to do this for 4 months, it won't be the virus that polishes me off, I'll have died of boredom. I'm thinking of painting a wall tomorrow so I can sit and watch it dry. You know, a bit like watching Spurs playing to Mourinho's tune - but less boring. Sorry JM supporters but being incarcerated with no light at the end of the tunnel is winding me up. Why should I be put through this just because I'm old and not you youngsters. That's ageism so I'm fighting back by winding you young kids UP! LOL COYS 1 Mr8ball reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Audere Est Facere 1711 Report post Posted March 17, 2020 should never have let the first lots home from China, cared more about a few hundred people who were more than happy to leave this country , make money abroad, then suddenly wanted to return to the NHS , well UK should have said no thanks, stay there and ride it out, instead our borders are still open, still no testing at airports/docks etc , still care more about people from abroad than about our own residents . Not blaming Government as in Tories, just the way this country still is, Brexit should have stopped all this PC crap but no, the minorities rights still outweigh the majorities and now we are all supposed to forego pubs , clubs, sports just cos some people from China and Italy etc HAD to come to the UK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
