Did all the shops have names that rhymed?
Of course. It's a very erudite place....

Morning, it is Mrs. Me's Birthday today.
Wishing Mrs Me a very Happy Birthday.

I have a bee in my bonnet!

One of those free magazines arrived on Saturday. Usually the content is high quality, with articles about local businesses. This time, however, they chose to include a long "joke" about a person pretending to be drunk, whilst not being drunk. This attracts the attention of a Policeman. The breathalyser shows that he is not under the influence of alcohol. Then he admits that he is "the designated decoy". I presume that people who have been drinking are now driving off, while the Policeman is busy with the "decoy"

Is it me or is this not at all funny? There are many subjects for humour, but surely not, in my opinion, drivers under the influence of alcohol.

It is a small publication, so I spoke to the Editor this morning. She basically said that they include a joke each month, and they avoid anything vulgar or rascist, and that if I considered this "joke" offensive, that was my problem, not hers. What does the panel think?

I agree with you.

He is feeling a little sorry for himself but at least it will give Sasha a break from being chased around by him for a few days.

Rubbish nights sleep :angry:

and Henry has hurt his back paw so it's off to the vets for him tomorrow:sad:
Me too... realised having gone to bed at 10 ish, I managed to see the clock around, 11, 1, 3 and 5 before finally waking at 6! The only good thing that can be said is that I feel asleep fairly quickly each time!

Poor Henry.... I realised I didn't even read that bit until after I hit post..... anybody got some spare matchsticks....?:tired:
