Oh what fun we are all having in here! Had a little sabbatical as IW was doing my head in. Really couldn’t take much more as it was affecting my mental health so much that I started to believe things the presenters were saying . They just kept repeating the same old lines time after time after time after time😴😴😴😴😴..
Like torture from a dripping tap,you will say or believe anything just to make them stop!!!

Anyway,a few days ago Mason was flogging a real leather(wow) wallet! It had the ‘iconic’ William Hunt name stamped there on and ‘Savile Row’.
He kept on and on and on and on…all about the name and Savile Row bit.
He tried to compare IW price with said W.Hunt but said W.Hunt hadn’t got any for sale so couldn’t do a comparison! Shame! NOT..

Regarding the illustrious William Hunt and Savile Row please look below(those of a nervous disposition please avert your eyes as this pic shows their current London ‘shop’ courtesy of Google street view)..
Unit 10 is where they operate from. No probs with that,but Savile Row it ain’t.

Looks more like Skid Row.
 
Well gang, get ready - looks like we have four hours of Dirty Pedro tonight.

Not only will they be clearance buys, not only must you multi-buy, not only will there be weather forecasts showing freezing weather, not only will his hovel still be damp, not only will Muriel be in, not only will there be tat for only five pounds..........on four flexis.....not only will you have to go to the phones.......not only will Pedro's life be saved by collagen.....

Of course you know all that.............so, for heaven's sake.....'AVE A BUY!!!!
 
Right…Okay….In the British Isles, this freezing, 15 degrees Monday evening, with even more freezing 20 degrees weather to come, I am reminded of cuddling up with our Josh, with Our bare Bet sprawled beneath the metal folding camp bed, with rancid moth eaten sacks for our blankets…She stares longingly up at us both in a block of melting hot ice on the bare damp encrusted floorboards adjacent to the home cinema and ballroom areas..Please BUY this chocolate hot water bottle…For no good reason other than the reason is the reason, Okay.. Charley? Charley?? Are people multi-buying these cardboard cuddle blankets? Get stuffed, you old tw.….Thank you, Charley…Multi-buying in their droves…Elderly freezing men and women of many genders with frozen parts…Charley???
 
15 years ago or less. And society has now become so precious, so desperate not to offend some minority or other in general that Little Britain wouldn’t even make it the commissioning process at the BBC these days. A great shame - because unlike the majority of box-ticking ‘comedies’ today, it was actually funny.

That Royal Variety Show last night was typical of the above. Two hours or so of the right-on audience pretending to laugh…

My late wife always suggested I played my electric guitars via a headphones connection. Sensible advice - as there is only so many times Jilted John remains entraining. I always said no…I loved to hear the neighbours beating in time through the wall with the Gordon is a Moron repeated line…

Your comment about Jilted John reminded me of when I used to have the misfortune to travel to Bristol for work reasons, on a pretty much daily basis for about 8 months.
To amuse myself, when driving through Bristol, I used to sing 'Bristol is a **** hole' using the Gordon is a moron tune.
Apologies in advance to anyone living in Bristol.
I live in Gloucester which is very similar to Bristol, just not as large.
Try it yourself, it's fun. Probably works better with shorter place names - not like Richmond on Thames.

I watched some repeats on That's TV, but it was so heavily edited, no Ting Tong or Bubbles DeVere and her friend, but funnily enough they left in Daffyd Thomas and all his gay sayings, also the lady who was always sick after eating Indian food. You have an off button, so if you are easily offended you can turn over instead of spoiling it for the rest of us.
