Concentrated Cake...

I decided to almalgamate some threads to save people time on scrolling through heaps of txt.

One morning I was sitting on the back step eating Eccles cakes and sardines after waxing my scrotum, legs and bicycle frame in the bath, listening out for the scratchings of an errant mouse whilst watching the mist rise off the lawn, I heard a knock at the door. It was the baliffs who had come to reposess the house because Cleat had peed on the floorboards once too often causing a catastrophic split in my relationship before the contract for the house was signed. I got my coat and elected to drive to work via Birmingham in my sub £4k car, listening to some gulty pleasure music, dreaming of girls in knitwear hoping to see Quentin Rayner on route so that I could run him over. If the car broke down I could blame Wiggle. Work was also on the way past the charity textile bank and the graveyard so I got rid of some sentimentally held threadbare clothing. I passed a classic TV ad for a bike frame, she was as beautiful as Claire Balding. I thought I was going mad when I saw Jeremy Clarkson on a bike yodelling. I shouted "WTF, IMHO I think you should ask Cleat how you should ride a bicycle, LOL, you look like an ugly girl in Lycra". It was his doppelganger but it still made me smile and laugh nonetheless.

I am now passing it over to you for editing/rating. No where near as funny as the Amazon Veet reviews but thats hard to top.
PS I was waiting for a parcel to arrive, so this was me killing time. Any idea when it will arrive?

    Didn't you hear the doorbell when they came earlier. It's gone back to the depot, so you'll have to take Wednesday off too.

    Bhima...?!?!

    That thread just ended up as a girly slanging match and is getting worse. Hopefully, when they have all got whatever it is out of their sytems, they will kiss and make up. As aggieboy said:

    'threads with agreement and threads with knockers', he was'nt wrong.
    Maybe we should post a thread for bitching and moaning where whoever can slag off woever. I'm not going to do it, I'll end up in the firing line.

    However, the 'glass cranking' line would have been worth an entry.
