Upon what did you hoist the bloomers?
Did the Coastguard mistake it for Flag Bravo. Lucky they forgot about Flag Zulu. |

An unfortunate Denholm E/O got one rotating rectifier anode-about-cathode resulting in the AC rotor being first, only partially operational (reactive current much imbalanced) and then burning out. It was not the rocka-a-billy of pole slip that halted the test but the smoke.

Scouting for young ladies. No doubt using Lord B-Ps alternatively gendered instruction manual on the sport. I am surprised they let you out so soon.

This is a complete mystery to me, perhaps I sustained them with a longing to be back on board the GD.

I have carefully referenced the instructions of Lord Howe and Sir Home Popham and suggest that if the bloomers were for signalling purposes the hoist should have been made at the mizzenmast. I am now researching in Motorship to see where they should be employed if intended for the entrapment of wind for propulsion purposes.

Jesus it's Friday, would you go out and have a pub lunch, a few scoops in the pm and go home about 7 and fall asleep in front of the TV. Popham is driving you demented. |

Not a bit. I have had a decent lunch in a group of about 12 (I had pork). After which a dumped friend of mine and another went for a pint or two at the Market. I am just back and will not start my TV snooze for another three hours. The codes of the ancients no longer tax me, only the siting of bloomers for their optimum drawing potential remains unanswered.

I fear I am no longer intellectually equipped to a suitable standard to partake in such verbal exchanges the verbosity of which is alas beyond the comprehension of a simple injuneer. The tone and thrust of the badanage is going directly above my bald pate and the feelings of inadequacy such actions therefore generate are more than I am able to absorb into my limited vocabulary. So I is going to bugger off to the injun room and read my anatomical magazines in peace.

Always be careful as to how you mix and match with these two. A police acquaintance of mine described spending ages attempting to sneak up on a cow to collect samples with a pair of tweezers.

Sorry to tell you, old man, but I think they just used the magic pipe to empty the shit plant. Please take a good shower before turning up in the smoke-room.

I have just taken delivery of latest consignment (via London - being unable to afford chartering GD for the cargo).
I started the pipe with Erinmore (why I know not as that did take some determination, almost as foul as Uncle Teddy's Digger Flake). Then, until my first trip, it was Amphora. Condemned to Three Nuns or Balkan Sobranie I could not then taste any of the Amphora when I returned on board with an armful from Bottlek Stores first time back. Since, it has Balkan Sobranie (despite the formidable Chief Super, Eddie Bruce, accusing me some 10 years on of only doing to because my boss, Ryan O'Hare smoked it too). Not available now there are one or two very good imitations although I put on the pipe rarely these days. A single Havana of an evening is 'it'. In an effort to stop a young friend (thirty somethings are now young to us?!) from smoking cigarettes I proposed that he might switch to a pipe and/or cigars (as Pa's plot to prevent me from ever taking them up). One size does not suit all. After a month he was smoking all three (later on he found hypnosis quite effective although I notice he still takes the odd fag).

Tried the pope back in early 60's some baccas were not for me though. I did however settle on a Dutch bacca, very aromatic it was, smelt a bit like burning toffee papers. Found after a while I was getting jaw pain so went back to Old Holborn roll ups.

Pardon me for my lack of edkushion as I is a 'umble injuneer but what has homosexuality got to do with smoking? although I do admit the aroma of burning rubber is quite the aphrodisiac given the right circumstances

I think the double negative probably degenderizes the vernacular vocabulary definition (the study of which might well go someway towards correcting your intellectual disability, not to mention your spelling, whilst leaving the slang no further mutilated) - unless on the other side of the pond. While he might consider the kindness in giving the old fart occasional chess or go 'odd', or even queer, his wife is of the conventional appropriately gendered variety.
As for the erectile propensity of burning rubber, does it work for electrical insulation as well? I fancy I might be able to equip prophylactic sheathing with microswitching or similar to use your plumbing as a pre-fire alarm sensor. All we would then have to do is mute the circuit between being put on the shake and breakfast and in the vicinity of Emma's (Danny's?) bar. I suppose the Plasticos might be responsible for falsie alarm or two too but I am sure we could handle that (but not personally if you don't mind it might come off on the cigar cutter).

Bloody ice-cream tobaccos. The twist all the farmers used to smoke, cut a bit off, rub it to fluff it up a bit, stick it in the pipe and when you light it, all the world goes sort of circular and you have to sit down for a bit. I would say I was never a big pipe smoker, but a friend used to carry a special "Cadgers" pipe, it could empty a pouch in one fell swoop.
