Or perhaps your dad objected to help fund his lifestyle? (Can't remember details but IIRC he was a bit of a thug)

 

My dad would have said the same, but he genuinely would've felt ripped off if EK had died in an explosive fireball within moments of starting the show.

 

Not thinks but KNOWS.

 

I came across this corker again today. I really must have a word with my gatepost....



(this really is my gatepost - I don't know where it gets these ideas from, I'm sure it's not me!)

 

Reminded me of this...

 

Thank you Kate!

 

Yes, that's livened my day - subtle, yet obvious. I must look out some of my tip jar signs from Cropredy festivals (though, if they appealed to me, they won't be subtle!)

 

I must admit, it took me a moment to figure it out!

 

Reminds me of the joke about in Venice, never tip a gondala.

 

Tell us the joke then.

 

Do I need to explain to you the difference between a gondola (sh1t, I spelled it wrong) and a gondolier?

 

I was being sarcastic.

 

I suspected that, but thought I couldn't pass up the opportunity to patronise you.
