It looks really lovely. Nice little garden too, you'll be able to get a dog!

I'll have you know that's a fair sized garden! We don't want a dog though.

That made me smile.

We had several people come to Estate Boboff when we first got here, and they would say " well it will be nice in the Summer" * me I thought, it's nice all the time, TWATS I tells ya!

*Not saying Charl is a twat there, just the people who said it about my garden.....

Classic Mail - Daily Mail man analyses film he hasn't seen.

[Ed Pummelon]

On a similar theme, a developer whose blog I follow has decided to track the Daily Mail's progress in diligently classifying all the things in the world which, according to them, either cause or prevent cancer. Possibly the most geeky mocking of the Daily Mail ever - funny though...

Did anyone watch family guy on BBC3 last night? They take on 3 Stephen King films, Stand By Me, Misery and The Shawshank Redemption. The bit with the pipe in the 'Shawshank' had me crying with laughter. Genius.

Ha. Stephen King hit by van and completing his novel mid-air.

I found Um Bongo!!

[Yudster]

Ah, quilting. Long been a way for women to fill their time. Sometimes with spectacular results.

[Yudster]

Well, maybe it will be interesting enough to still be around when your great great grandaughter gets it out to show HER daughter. Then it would be spectacular.

I won't post the image, but the following is highly entertaining for those who have seen 2 Girls 1 Cup.

The image isn't nasty, it's a picture of a university report type thing done on it.

That took courage.

Courage? I'm not so sure. If whoever wrote it is trying to earn a degree, it was stupid - the marking surely indicates that syllabus requirements have been ignored and the assignment brief not met. If they were trying to embarrass their tutor, it was a weak effort and clearly didn't work. If they were just having a giggle, well, I'm sure they did - but courageous? Nah.

I'm watching The Flintstones and they are playing table tennis.

[S4B]

Cat, are you worried that you are spending too much time with Toph now?

[MK Chris]

I wasn't watching it. I reckon could beat them though - in fact if all my opponents were fictional cartoon characters, I'd probably do quite well.

[Yudster]

There's a table tennis player on the new Wii advert isn;'t there? I can't remember his name. I have no idea who the other bloke with him is though.

[MK Chris]

I haven't seen it.

[MK Chris]

Also, Tom Daley is making me smile today.

[Yudster]

Yes, bless him - although his dad is even more embarrassing than Lewis Hamilton's dad. Brilliant achievement though, really outstanding. And he's still only 15.

[Boboff]

It's a real shame, he was bullied at school, and had to move to a "free" private one recently, he's from Plymuff, and his dad is a right Janner!

Is it just me or do you think he might be a bit gay? Foots.....

[MK Chris]

What's a Janner?

[Boboff]

Janner is a British regional nickname associated with people from Plymouth or people who live in areas near the sea, both as a noun and as an adjective for the local accent and colloquialisms. Cyril Tawney's Grey Funnel Lines describes its meaning as "a person from Devon", deriving from Cousin Jan (the Devon form of John), but "more particularly in naval circles anyone from the Plymouth area".[1]

With the changes in the local economy in Plymouth over the course of the 1980s and 1990s, from the Royal Navy being the major employer to being a university city housing a large number of students from outside the city, the term has developed an additional secondary pejorative sense describing the locals.

Some people nonetheless still have doubts about the specific application and treat Janner as a term that applies to all waterside 'yokels' from any West Country or even south coast port.

It features in the football team Plymouth Argyle supporters' chants, particularly its variant on the folksong Oggy Land.[2]. For many years there was a cartoon in the Plymouth Evening Herald entitled 'The Janners'.

The Member of Parliament for Devonport, Alison Seabeck, showed her ignorance of the term in 2005 when, while still a candidate, she was asked by the local paper: "What is a Janner?" The Express on Sunday reported her reply:[3]

The flustered candidate wailed: "I don't know. You're not going to print this, are you?" Unfortunately they did. The answer is a "Plymothian".

Many pamphlets circulate with mischievous amusing and sometimes erotic anthologies and there are short dictionaries of Janner vocabulary, e.g. the Janner TextBook.[4]

You know, the only other successful British diver I can name is Chris Snode and he is gay. So obviously Tom must be too. Diving is clearly one of those gay sports.

It's the Speedos that do it.

I feel sorry for that kid. I don't know much about him but I get the feeling he might be a trained monkey. I hope all this nonsense so early in his life doesn't affect him later.

Aye. That's how it works.

I honestly didn't mean it like that. ( i.e. I understand your sarcasm, and no I wouldn't have thought diving was a gay sport)
