You look a bit like Boy George when I was stood behind him in the queue at the chemist in Belsize Park while he discussed his heroin substitute. (He looked a bit 'peaky' as the Lancastrians say). Wife wanted to take him home for a cuppa and a good talking to :lol: ).

They should have a sign 'we aim to please, you aim too please' and it looks like something chewed the bog lid bumper. :D The bog brush is funny though, you can put spare rolls on the 'prongs'. (My SiL has a giraffe by the bog and you store spare bog rolls on the neck :D ).

Has no-one noticed the paper on the business end?


So easy to do a second flush with the brush in the bog, agitate and then knock the detritus off.....

In passing, it surprises me how many bog seat bumpers get nicked......the Gregg's Petrol station on the way to Rhayader from Builth is a case in point....


How hard up would you need to be to pinch a bit of plastic soaked in many strangers' piss?

I see this geezer 'performing' around the village sometimes.
Today he had a new "set" with watering can and flowers.
But, it was 28c when we walked past and the sun was beating and he was wearing heavy clothes.

Not totally random because a. there's a theme and, b. there's a question.

Went to Aeroscopia museum in Toulouse last week. It's a bit greedy - has two Concordes! More on that in a moment.

Back to the Concordes. You know the wing shape? A long, flowing, S curve, yes?

But viewed from above, it has kinks!
