    I asked "what do you hope to achieve" in a genuinely curious way, and I believe that was perfectly clear from my post. I thank you not to put words in my mouth or try to infer double meanings where there are none.

    You know what trivial thing annoys me

    Forum posts with a built in get-out clause when questioned on them.

    Mmm. Yes, I know Ageing Marathon Man. He's the earnest, motivated type, usually fairly successful financially. His body is a temple and he likes to stay in shape. This doesn't alter the fact that he's going to end up in a sweating, red-faced heap on the pavement one of these days needing a simultaneous knee replacement and double-bypass. The hell of it is while he's huffing and chuffing around the place like an early Trevithick locomotive, for the last five years or so the wife's been huffing and chuffing, Reverse Cowgirl-style, with the youngfella who cuts the grass. Oh well... :D

    Jim, you really need to set up your own blog at this stage, you have me in stitches every day
    I never know what will come out o yer mouth but cant wait till it does :)))

    :D

    ( and Im having a sh*****y day and in pain, but I laugggghhhhed!!)

    That google (all of google, including stuff like youtube) has suddenly switched to Japanese language settings and I can't undo it.

    People not knowing the difference between imply and infer, especially when they're trying to use the words in a debate.

    When Eamon Dunphy presented the Last Word, 'infer' was pretty much his favourite word, although he always used it to mean 'imply'. He received regular corrections from listeners and always acknowledged his error, but would always go back to his original usage!

    Oh, well I guess you're in the right place then :)

    You know what doesnt trivially annoy me? Posters who sulk when they are not permitted to read something into my post that was never there.

    Happy Friday :)

    Are you talking about Martina Fitzgerald? She looks like she's slowly starving to death, the creature. :pac:

    Ursula Halligan slightly annoys me. She's the one who looks like Angela Lansbury. She gives me the impression she wants to take off her knickers and throw it at someone every time she appears outside Leinster House in the rain waiting for the good word on the latest Hoors'n'Roundabouts scandal. :pac::pac::pac:

    Angela Lansbury :D:D
    She does, I KNEW she fookin reminded me of someone, could never get it

    :D

    People who fcuk you in the ass without having the common decency to give you a reach-around.

    Metaphorically speaking.

    On the subject of juvenile humour, a guy at work told me about his rainwater harvesting and the fact that "his butt is empty at the moment" :D:D:D:D
    (He was not amused when I started laughing...)
