    Indeed it was very lovely. Such a nice man, Mr. Wogan. Thanks OD.

    It's amazing what you find on the internet on a dark and dreary Sunday morning. I needed to be cheered up and this did the trick.

    I like the fine art section!

    "Despite his efforts Barry remained visible to the trained eye"
    I am almost sure Mr. Bean is in that photo.

    And this one just broke me up..

    JB and looksee have discovered a long lost thread from the deep dark archives of the deep dark forum that is O&O :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭Jellybaby1


    We women are the only ones who look into dark corners! It needs dusting Looksee, fetch a cloth! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,050 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    I'm not dusting it, there might be spiders :eek:.

    So are you going to report us for reviving a zombie thread Rube?





    (It wasn't me, it was her wat reopened it...) :o:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭Jellybaby1


    What would make it 'zombie' then? Often wondered but never asked before. I've seen posters knuckles rapped for doing this. No point in opening another thread on the same subject when this one still works. I'm sure something else will make me smile in the future too. :):):) See how thweet I can be? Mods really can't be angry at me for very long. (flutters eyelashes once more) :)

    Of couse .... Here you go JB a duster for you, looksee kindly provided it. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭Jellybaby1


    Are you sure that's a duster? How long is it since you even saw a duster? Would you really recognise one if you saw one? Come now, its really a white flag of surrender, innit? :D

    Come on, anyone else with a smile to share?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,551 ✭✭✭Rubecula


    I am a Scouser I know my tickling sticks :)

    Hang one give it back JB it has a bit of barbed wire on it .... in fact it is all barbed wire.............. Sorry JB not letting you have it while I am in arms length, not of course that I don't trust you :D

    The third verse almost brings tears to the eyes. Pop Marlene Dietrich's name into Google Images. What a doll she was, and wore some very saucy frocks too!

    Orders came for sailing somewhere over there
    All confined to barracks was more than I could bear
    I knew you were waiting in the street
    I heard your feet
    But could not meet
    My Lili of the lamplight
    My own Lili Marlene
