Happy thanksgiving day to all.

JTB

Alan,

Sounds like you had a good day all round!

As you know I investigated the odds on a Oz whitewash and William Hills were only offering a miserly 11-2.

Ladbrokes on the other hand were 16-1 and I never bit. The draw is bound to happen in one.

I truly believe that England will be lucky to win one.

Three of Englands main players from the last series are posted missing (Vaughan, Trescothick and Jones) and with Flintoff carrying an injury, it ain't gonna happen.

I wouldn't begrudge the Aussies their day but I would suggest that their biggest enemy might, and only just might, be their arrogance.

"You tube!" right enough.

JTB

Did retep ever find that car of his?

And that's another good reason for this car park idea. Well done Dutchy.

JTB

As an aside, I was keeping half an eye on the match during routine surgery (ok actually an Omega bracelet adjustment ) and when that free-kick curled beautifully into the corner I jumped up with excitement and stabbed my thumb on one of the pins OWWWwwwwww......now what is it they say about pain and pleasure?

doc,

Ouch.........I feel your pain........but what a free kick! At least van der graf generator had a go at getting it this time but thankfully he was never gonna get there......even with a bus ticket.

A Sellick / Pool final would be good indeed and there is no reason why we can't get there.....is there?

JTB

PS -

all it needed was another Andy Gray classic line like "you beauty, what a hit son, WHAT a hit!!!"

Wrong colour shirt for our Andy.

Short term or long term parking?

Damn............I kinda just knew it couldn't be simple!

JTB

So it`s like that song from big yellow taxi......................That you dont know what you`ve got Till its gone.

Which has given me a great idea!!!

Why don't we demolish this thread and put up a parking lot?

JTB

@slay

LOL... I would actually prefer you said it the other way around.

But that would be:

!!!!KCAUQBBGFMO WERDNA SI AUHSOJ

and wouldn't make any sense at all.

JTB

I've managed to calm down a bit and it's very late for me now. Having said that getting to sleep might prove difficult.

As much as we got the runaround in the first half, Man U were a bit toothless in front of goal and we soaked up most of their pressure.

The second half was quite different and we passed it better and put them under a bit more pressure. Naka's free kick was sublime and Artur's peno save was brilliant and justice served.

Bear in mind that Celtic have only been beaten once in the European Cup at Parkhead in 23 years and if there is a better record than that, I want to know about it.

The crowd were at their usual brilliant best and again there is no match for them anywhere.

A tired an emotional JTB

Hail Hail

Music, when soft voices die,

Vibrates in the memory,

Odours, when sweet violets sicken,

Live within the sense they quicken.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,

Are heaped for the beloved's bed;

And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,

Love itself shall slumber on.

Neil - Shelley says it better than I could............in fact better than most could.

God bless.

A woman comes home and tells her husband, "Remember those headaches I've

been having all these years? Well, they're gone."

"No more headaches?" the husband asks, "What happened?"

His wife replies, "Margie referred me to a hypnotist. He told me to stand in

front of a mirror, stare at myself and repeat 'I do not have a headache; I do not have a headache, I do not have a headache.' It worked! The headaches are all gone."

The husband replies, "Well, that is wonderful."

His wife then says, "You know, you haven't been exactly a ball of fire in the bedroom these last few years. Why don't you go see the hypnotist and see if he can do anything for that?" The husband agrees to try it.

Following his appointment, the husband comes home, rips off his clothes, picks up his wife and carries her into the bedroom. He puts her on the bed and says, "Don't move, I'll be right back."

He goes into the bathroom and comes back a few minutes later and jumps into bed and makes passionate love to his wife like never before.

His wife says, "Boy, that was wonderful!"

The husband says, "Don't move! I will be right back."

He goes back into the bathroom, comes back and round two was even better than the first time.

The wife sits up and her head is spinning.

Her husband again says, "Don't move, I'll be right back."

With that, he goes back in the bathroom. This time, his wife quietly follows him and there, in the bathroom, she sees him standing at the mirror and saying, "She's not my wife. She's not my wife. She's not my wife!"

*nudges thread up the list and squeezes it in between all the 'Bond' and 'Noobmariner' threads*

Yes it's that time again folks and the biggie tonight and game of the week is the

CELTIC v Man Utd game.

I am optimistic that we can get a result tonight and as much as the bhoys should pay them respect, they should not fear them.

HAIL HAIL

JTB

Never had a problem with Royal Mail or Parcelforce.

Usually very reliable..........except when they go on strike!

As Mark suggests it could anything that's causing your delay. Give it another day or two.

JTB

Excellent post Bill and as ziggy rightly suggested I'm moving this to 'Watch Repair and Upgrade' and pinning it.

JTB

There's nothing like courting a bit of controversy to get you back in the public eye and invited on to all sorts of shows, when your career seems to be on the slide.

JTB

Okay..........wrong thread but I knew I mentioned it somewhere!

Better wrap it up here as some people are getting bored of us (but then I don't go crapping on their Euro Champions League borefests... )

Tetchy tetchy Rico.

Al good fun my son. All good fun.

Anyways there's dosh at stake in the boring old CL thread..................and for the record we did discuss Gerard Houlier's Planet Ocean in it...............but we felt one mention was enough.

JTB

I have a lot of old reps (5) which i would love to get rid off to get cash to support my addiction for new ones.like others mentioned here, on ebay whenever i mention its a rep the listing gets cancelled and ive had an account suspended cos of this.i would never dream of giving the impression that im selling a gen though.

has anybody figured a way out of this yet? i was thinking maybe mention in the listing that "all bidders should contact me before bidding" and then when they do i can let them know its a rep? or do u guys think this is a wrong way to go about it? i would really love to make this work and get rid of the old ones to free up cash for new ones.

i so desperately want a navitimer and a B4B i can almost see it on my wrist

doesnt help either that i just lost a bentley gt to customs last week

any thoughts guys?

Why don't you upgrade your membership and then attempt to sell your reps on the forum?

JTB

Yeah, I know. It was Master Mates, and the cabin boy was Tom.

Black Pig however was still controversial.....

Seaman Staines?

Are you pressing the buttons quite hard? i.e. full depression as opposed to half depression.

JTB

How much did Nanuq charge for those wonderful white paper watches and did he supply the A1 fire retardant ones?

JTB

How do you get to sleep at a Formula 1 hotel? Do they give you free ear defenders?

JTB

I'm sure I won't get anything as interesting as how Craig pronounces 'Omega' in my thread.

I think that eclipses everything.

JTB

Who has the best 'Casino Royale' thread?
