The Pieman was pretty cool, however.

Here’s my story… It’s Zardocool!

I may have already mentioned this but I’ll tell it again. A close friend of mine got excommunicated at the end of June and not 8 weeks later, it was revealed that we've been having an affair since March. Everyone found out at the same time and we got kicked out by our wives. It turns out that the ladies knew all along but didn't say anything to the locals.

Now, fast forward to a few weeks ago when I met Mekon. He answered an smoke signal to become our wedding/party band Mongolian Throat singer. I’d never met him before he auditioned and to be fair, I wouldn’t have done anyway because he lives in Mekonta. He’s a great singer and I did some filming while we practiced which I showed to another friend (The best friend of my new fella)

This friend was happily Facebook snooping on Dan Dare who had an affair the other day and what does he turn up, a picture of this Space Pilot with my new throat singer!

It turns out that the two of them have been at war for years. All he knows is that he split from his boyband recently but didn’t know why.

What are the chances of these two, seemingly unrelated people knowing each other? Pretty slim I’d say! Small world and all that…

Saw this reflected on my car windscreen yesterday so looked up and took some snaps:

I've seen rainbows and white rings like that around the sun before in hazy skies but never seen two different circles intersecting each other like that with the sun sat on the perimeter of one of them.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Aug 21, 2017 12:27

Yeah, that's weird. Have you Googled about to see what causes it?

Good job the Z man was here to link us to that story or I'd have known nothing about it.

That's the paper that hates him, right? It certainly seems to.

Here's what Stu (presumably) said:

Quote:

We’ll only be making a very brief comment on the story in Tuesday’s Herald, for hopefully obvious reasons. The piece by Tom Gordon has been written for maximum innuendo to allow the wildest speculations on social media – which are of course duly taking place – but the alleged events relate entirely to some tweets from our Twitter account, none of which have been deleted and all of which are still publicly visible.

Nothing more sinister or serious than some tweets has occurred or been alleged to have occurred. That’s all we’ll be saying on the subject at this time

I quite fancy this job if only because it has a cool title, but unfortunately I don't have the required academic qualifications.

They were sinister enough that he was arrested, he's not contesting that bit.

Kern · **Posted:** Tue Aug 22, 2017 10:05

Made the BBC website. How soon will it be before his supporters claim that this is all due to sinister elements of the British Unionist establishment?

Will there be a protest single? I hope so.

It's just so twatty. He's not the queen, and he's not The Times or something. It's just ridiculously pretentious.

Oh, does it say in her 39s? I must have missed thatcdetail. Oh well.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Tue Aug 22, 2017 15:51

Early 39's or late 39's?

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25591

Early, just out of the 38s.

Do books still carry justified text? I don't think I've actually noticed. I should be able to just get up and look at a book, but I got down onto the foor and think I may stay here forever.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25591

Just checked three, and they are all fully justified. They are also rather ancient, though. Well, 1999, 2002 and 2003 editions.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25591

They're all nicely bound, though.

I'm having an awful time of sleep these last few days. I am falling asleep, I think, but then when I wake up I realise I've just been thinking of stuff for hours, and I wake fully up through the night and it takes me 30-60 minutes to get back to sleep

Kern · **Posted:** Wed Aug 23, 2017 7:52

My new freezer arrives today. I was quite excited by this, but then I've just moved the old one and seen what's behind it.
