'Gen Buzz' & dits pages....

 

Hi Mac, Thought that this may be one for the Dit's page....    

  Somehow at the Coventry reunion, around our table, the conversation got on to home baking. Due to the delicate nature of what is about to follow the Association member concerned can not be named, but his daughter (who is a lovely girl dispite her father) told us about her Dad's talent for baking.........................................bread!  She told us that the bread was quite nice, although a bit crumbly but Dad enjoyed making it. Unfortunately the bread didn't keep well and he had to make new batches regularly!! Now............ I find it very hard to imagine my old drinking, partying, hell raising buddy, with his pinny on.........baking bread. I mean he was a WE not S&S!!! As I said, the Association Secretary's name should remain secret and the fact that his feminine side is stating to show itself now is not a trigger for ridicule at Pompey next year.

WR :" I'd like to check in please"

Hotel : " Yes sir of course, name please?"

WR: "Mr ***** "

After several minutes of frantic searching.....

Hotel " Er, I cant find you on our list sir..."

Hotel : I'll check again sir..........."

WR : "I'm here for the HMS ANTRIM ASSOCIATION reunion"

He Stated categorically that the book was 99.9% accurate, as he himself had given Roger all the info, & the the book is FACT,

& no Ghost writers involved !!

When I'm 64

"when i get older losing my hair only a year from now "

Will Dave Basnett still have the ability to be 'Barred' from a pub? & not only that ensure that those with him are also Barred?

On entering the said public house, Kev C went to the heads, (wonder who's round it was??). Dave took one look at the Landlady & expressed the opinion that she looked how he felt! (Given that Dave was still hungover, & looked it)

 She Promptly Barred him & every one else within spitting distance of him. Poor old Kev c , came out of the heads & was told that THEY were barred ! With the drinks sitting on the Bar, Kev never even got a sniff of it !!

PUB WATCH  in COVENTRY

Bomber Invades SWEDEN

Having successfully booked into the hotel for the second time, Bomber went for a Saturday afternoon 'Stroll' .

Coming across Ikea, which is the largest in Europe, apparently, Bomber thought he'd kill half an hour,

A table & two lamps later bomber made his way back to the hotel, Now there is NO truth in the 'buzz' that he will visit coventry for a third time, just to buy a carpet !
