Anyone know why I suddenly had No Memory by Scarlet Fantastic in my head last night?

Anyway back to the paint , silk or Matt , and what colour ?
Thanks in advance.

Silk.

The colour you want is Dulux Moroccan Gold 046:

Yeah. Then your house can look like you've vomited carrot soup all over it.

Black a la Adrian Mole. Now that's what you want.

rather have Lebanese Red.

Moroccan brown for me.

actually i have to object to another glaring spelling mistake in the posts above. Heaven knows , I am not normally a pedant, but the term is WAISTER, not waster.
A WAISTER is a seaman who is not qualified to go up the high rigging with the TOP MEN.

"The largest division of a ship's company, and the most ignoble, was that of the waisters, the men stationed in the waist, the men " without art or judgment," who hauled aft the fore and main sheets, and kept the decks white." John Masefield, Sea Life in Nelson's Time, 1905 (p. 129).

pinno

Someone should have told that Masefield bloke about comma's before the word 'and'.

cooldad

And that priory bloke about capitalisation, and random spaces before commas.

orraloon

And that Pinno bloke about the grocer's apostrophe. :roll:

imposter2.0

"Thread of the year reasserts its position as thread of the year"

pinno

And that orraloon bloke and his dodgy grammar innit.

pblakeney

And that Pinno bloke trying to be down with the kids.

Damned new page!

pinno

Damn that PBlakeney for his 1 or 2 sentence precis. (What is the plural of 'precis'?)
Damn the US spell checker too.

pblakeney

Damn that Pinno for setting up the precis.
Been so long that I can't remember why, but it has become a thing.

Maybe those bullies have point. Give it a cut, honestly

Unfortunately he does have a point - too many people either shouting down, getting aggressive or calling troll when people post opinions they don't agree with.

No question is a stupid question - the only stupid things are the people who call stupid.

Let me have a go:

Why are wheels round?
Is Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?
Why cant they make giant hamster wheels for dogs?
Why are women banned from Formula One?

I do believe that answering serious questions that come across as stupid will make someone that slightly bit less stupid. Plus the freedom of speech applies to people of all levels of IQ.

these questions are too easy
