Mark One Posted February 28, 2018 Author #955 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Dont let the cold and the snow put you off from frequenting the Dragon. Why dont you smear yourself in some of that deepheat body cream and then make your way to my pub. You`ll feel warm, snug and pain free. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ouija ouija Posted February 28, 2018 #956 Share Posted February 28, 2018 * stamps snow off feet * Bl**dy hell it's cold out there! Global warming? More like global bl**dy freezing! What utter twaddle these environmentalists do talk. Actually, there's a clue in the name there: mentalists. A hot toddy when you have a moment, landlord, if you please. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark One Posted February 28, 2018 Author #957 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Coming up, my more intelligent of bods. Between you, me and the door post, I think that all of the global warming is a big load of wotzits. Also, just look into the sky on a clear day and observe all of them criss-crossing trails. So called expert boffins state that such an occurrence is not chem-trailing...um, so it must mean an airline pilot convention has had a bad day? Mind you, not that I know what chem-trailing is. I`m in grey area in terms of time, anchored somewhere between 1950-1970. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acute Posted March 1, 2018 #958 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Brrrrr! A pitcher of mulled strongbow please gaffer. BTW Mark, you might want to take a look at the snowman in the smoking shelter.

Mark One Posted March 1, 2018 Author #960 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I clocked summit bod sized bobbing about in the pool earlier when I took a butchers hook outside through the kitchen window. *smacks head* I dont know, just me luck to have the only swimming pool in town fitted before the spring/summer season arrives and then it ruddy snows! Some of that cement paste was still sticky went job wah done onnit. Whats coming to the dragons carpark next? Iceburgs and flippin polar bears or maybe a ruddy dead hippo floating its way through the slushy depths of me pool.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark One Posted March 1, 2018 Author #961 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Might as well brighten the mood whilst I`m sailing a full speed. Theres been a change to the menu.

Its bread and dripping butties on the menu tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but that would require leaflets, an errand boy, pool monitor, tickets and most probably transport. Not to mention the Dragons specialty - falling down water & electric soup. Can you imagine old Bobby Crutch taking a pool side stroll and suddenly finding that hes been caught short? The temptation to use the pool and not a nearby hedge would, well...use your imagination girl. Edited March 1, 2018 by Mark One 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt221 Posted March 3, 2018 #965 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Following Mr Marks remarks on another thread I really should'nt be here ..... but I thought I could redeem myself by offering to start a club the mighty Mark suggested a pigeon club,I've got loads of birds and there all over the country so if anyone wants to join just go into any town centre which some bread(ive trained them to fly to you)then a swift bit of hand work and bang you've caught one, or if your a bit more adventurous go out into the countryside with a thing called a 410 20 16 or12 bore( choice is yours)and once again bang he's yours ..... somtimes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry lass but thats been done. Way back in 1859 when that (lack of) hoop rolling crisis led to desperate means in entertaining oneself. As you can seen from this family photo, such novelties usually kept the crime levels down. Imagine that latter mentioned crisis, picture the insanity of looting, feel the terror of mysterious house fires and then face the horror of barmy folk dressing up squirrels and talking to owls! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
