Random musings and general banter.

[Herring]

As long as we don't get any songs from Frank Sinatra's album Songs For Swinging Lovers (I don't want to know what him and Our Bet get up to...)

I often wonder if Our Bet is actually like Aunt Sally from Worzel Gummidge…

Pedro sees Our Bet as flesh and blood (and a bit of a saucy minx). They have such fun.

Everyone else sees a Homesmart stick vac in a Tamsy frock…

 

[galesgal57]

I still think for Bet, read Bert.

 

[Megabazus]

Thanks, at least we know what it smells like now

I think it has base notes of damp camel, kangaroo testicles and gorilla armpit

I still reckon Our Bet is him in drag, in a Tamsy frock, sensible shoes and a hideous shopping designer inspired handbag in vegan leather.

Our Muriel, Our Karen, Our Bet, Our William, Our Kenneth, Our Aggie…Lots of names from the era of the 60 to 90 somethings he targets as watchers. Do any of these names actually exist? Well, yes, they do. No doubt there are people with these sorts of names watching. But anything to do with his personal life? I very much doubt it.

The one thing that you do notice about him is that he offers no tangible trail whatsoever via the Internet of his life outside of shopping television. No social media. No personal social pages in general. Do you think somebody you sense is actually extremely guarded about their privacy, would bandy about real family members’ and close friends’ names on a low rent television channel selling tat?

I've always thought that he "bowls from the pavillion end', if you get my drift.

It's all part of the Larry Grayson act with his imaginary friends, Everard, Slack Alice, Apricot Lill etc.

Never heard that expression before but I do get your drift!

 

[galesgal57]

I know plenty more, but I wouldn't want to offend you.

I wouldn’t inflict his googlies on you. Nor his donkey drops..

They must be bad if you're worried about offending me!

Oh go on! Spoilsport. Peter doesn’t care if he offends us and is going to continue tonight..forewarned is forearmed

They are as real as the production crew Paul B pretends to look at just off screen

Don’t forget Pop-it-in-Pete…say no more

 

[Scraping the barrel]

I note that ‘Muriel’ hasn’t contributed to IW forum for some time.

Maybe ‘she’ has forgotten ‘her’ password?
I will jog ‘her’ memory..possibly ‘I tell it like it is me’ or ‘best price I’ve ever seen’ or ‘ I genuinely mean this’

There you are P.. sorry Muriel try those and you can then regale us with your recent buys..

 

[Hammy60]

He's been on 10 minutes and I've already mentioned twice.

First to say it's going to be -10 in Aberdeen tonight, and then for the batteries.

 

[Paul Laver's Wig]

Has Pete sorted a line off camera. He's like a kid who's had all the E numbers.

 

[Ant7t]

Does IW have a contract with a torch manufacturer? Almost every show, they seem to have at least one (dozen) for sale.

 

[Paul Laver's Wig]

People were texting him about his flashlight at the weekend.......... Autocorrect me thinks.

 

[HughTwo]

Pedro was slamming the counter and kept shouting "batteries....batteries....batteries....."

He must take something before his shift starts
