  2. I really cant think what we would do without it! Jim
  3. i was just having a moan about this yesterday. people phoning you up trying to sell you stuff you never knew you didnt want. work is worse when they phone up all important like and say " can I speak to mr fish?" "whos calling please?" "Its john from twatingham" or even worse they give themselves a name like the health advisory council or some such official sounding body so you feel like you had better take the call. Then when you do and are expecting the long arm of the government he tries to sell you a magazine subscription. THE *******. talking of which the posty staggered in this morning, his legs buckling under the weight of eight shelving catalogues, each sent to me under a different name jomdish, jimdfish, jumdfish et al. We live in a climate of fuel shortages credit ( thank friday its) crunchies and rampant inflation, not to mention the fact that we are being told to become more sustainable and this firm whom I will never ever deal with a gain on principle because they have really ****** me off send me half a hundred weight of **** and thay cannot even spell my name right. ******** jimdfish

    QI SOS

    The international distres signal SOS is one hundred years old today. The interesting bit however is that it does not stand for anything. It is just the shortest three letter arrangement in morse code! I laboured for years under the misapprehension that it stood for save our souls. jim

    Ticket Master

    I have just printed off three tickets for me to go and see the MIGHTY BOOSH in December. I usually have my tickets sent. i will not print them off again. It is just too easy to photocopy them as they come on a sheet of A4 out of a desktop printer. jim
  12. I have watched Ballykissangel and read Tony Hawkes round Ireland with a fridge and I must say this isn't the attitude that I have come to expect of the Irish. The Irish natural good humour and a welcome to stranger and friend alike are known throughout the free world Now, either the TV and Hawkes is lying ( and why would they? there is no reason!) or your not really Irish and one of these plastic paddies I hear about on my yearly visit to the pub dressed in my leprecahuans hat and having the craic.

  13. having put my magnet somewhere "safe" at the end of last season and not being able to find it again this season I phoned Andy Moss and explained the situation. No fuss, no worries a very good price and next day delivery. he even went as far as to phone me and check whether it had arrived and was to my satisfaction. Top hole says I. Jim
  14. I took a BMW estate to them the other day because it had developed a serious steering wobble. New suspension bush and bent wheel rim they told me and that I had take it to the BMW main dealer in stockport. they phone me up after losing the keys for some time to tell me that the front tyre is illegal and has a flat spot and there is nowt wrong with the steering bush and the wheel is fine. i return to KF to be told that the wheel is not illegal but does have a flat spot and the steering is deffinetely knackered. Got two new front tyres and phoned up the leasing company to assure them i would not be dealing with either of the two branchs of bmw or KF again. peasoup in a briary springs to mind. jim

    Fiona Bruce

    no one got the pop masters reference then. it was either too subtle or plain rubbish. jim
  20. Big up big man. Lovely write up. What size did you have trout wise? Jim
  21. three books a week man myself. love reacher, dave robicheaux by JL Burke are superb on my desk at the mo i have the overlook by micheal connolly in his Bosch series. Robert Crais is brilliant as is John connolly with his Charlie Bird series. For laughs I read Robert rankin and if there was one book that I would recommend to anyone which in my opinion is the funniest ever written the it is the ascent of rumdoodle by a e bowman. SOOOO funny. Jim

  23. The Manchester Evening News in particular has most weeks the terrible story of someone fined 80 quid for littering. the article usually takes ther form of some "outraged" citizen fined for chucking out a fag dimp or dropping a can to the floor with the accompanying headline " I was only putting it on the floor because i was tired due to dyslexia" or some such tosh. Littering is illegal. If you get caught expect some punitive action for you have broken the law be it a fag end or a skip full of asbestos. It is a aginst the law and same as you can not be a little bit pregnant you can be no less guilty in the eyes of the law. i know this sounds sanctimonious and yes, i have littered and still chuck my fag dimps but if or when I am caught I will hold my handds up. jim
