Hello From My Englishness

[Polranny]

Good Evening MrDevereaux



There's some odd people about, eh?



Quite odd....can't get my head around that at all



Astonishing! But tea....tell me that you drink tea, at least!

Nick!! And Mr.D simultaneously ( almost )......good to know you're both around .... let's have a brew and a chip buttie

 

[Polranny]

I’d hug you, Pol, but your scales are razor sharp! Have one on me! How you doing?

I'm pretty good... apart from an excruciating attack of hypochondria .... my GP reckons its the worst case hes seen but it keeps him busy in these strange times

Only if it’s Yorkshire Tea (even though Sunak has soiled their good name). Fig rolls are a bonus, if you’re buying.

That Dick Van Dyke outfit can’t half raise the temperature of the room! Careful, Pol! You might set the ladies’ hearts a flutter!

Haha! Good to see you on such sparkling form despite your hypochondria!

How is everyone doing today?

Storm Alan has done a runner, he nicked my slippers. I’ve now got to get new ones.

Storm Bob will come in a tea cup. Dirty bugger.

How is everyone today? Have you all checked your Excel software? Can it handle your data needs?

Excel? I'm a little surprised they aren't still on Lotus 1-2-3..

 

[MrDevereaux]

Excel? I'm a little surprised they aren't still on Lotus 1-2-3..

I’m surprised they’re not using old index cards.

I remember Lotus , God I feel old

I had a cleft stick but upgraded to a zx spectrum

I had a cleft stick but upgraded to a zx spectrum

Loved the Spectrum zx!

Is a cleft stick something to do with cleavage.

There was a joke on a certain radio show about how the Government should now pursue Arcure (sp) for a refund on her 'tech lessons' to Johnson.

Speaking of which, anyone seen the new Spitting Image?

I think the reviews were pretty dreadful.

If I remember correctly it was taken off the box all those years ago because it just wasn't very funny any more. Seems the same has happened. Great puppets let down by dire writing.

I think the appeal of Spitting Image back then was its cutting edge, but once it came into the realm of being familiar, that was lost, probably a mistake to attempt resurrection, but what do I know!

I've only seen the trails, pretty dire. I think that both comedy and political satire have moved on. It has also been over-hyped.

With what’s going on, satire is pretty difficult to do.
