We will meet many Aliens in Hull, some of them with DNA that is purple. Could it be the Humber water?

Eyup ES, was you a member of commander Brooks army of spies that twisted Hull trawlermans arms? i am going to look deeper into this, in the Hull fishdock archives i see that you were caught by plod smuggling cod and selling it at back a market.

I never rated him either but Rod Grimsby and Cassowary never really caught on. The disastrous appearance on " The Good Old Days", on BBC 1 where he fell off the stage and Rods cufflinks got tangled in Barbra Windsor's bits and pieces rendered Leonard Sachs speechless and it was all downhill from there. So sad.

If so I would lay off the hard stuff (I can't play for toffee and unless it were to be a a pre G&S composition I wouldn't be attempting to).

Did you know that Varley is trying to cash in on Christmas, he has just opened his "elf on a shelf" stall at Peel market, good luck with that!....His sellotape stall failed as he opened it in Aug to try and beat the rush.

I dined in company of a fine Irish singer last night. The odds are certainly shortening on it getting there.

(Sellotape stall - never stay together with our climate. Anyway it would have been elf on a pole but the first batch was stopped for offending the latest porn restrictions - no way could they have been described as childlike - not with genitalia of those proportions)

Wrong BB, Wrong. Billy Connelly told me the following story:-

I'm gonna tell you a wee story ES. There are two guys, two wee Glasgow guys, and they went on holliday, to Rome, and they were being tourists, you know. "Holy, hm, hm, another one over there." "Oh, that's great, I wonder who papered that ceiling, that's fantastic." Going around the place, looking at things. And the sun there in Rome was getting to them, you know. "Today the sun's beating down on my head." "It's beating down on mine as well, funny that, ain't it?" "Might as well go have a bevvy." And they will enter a wee bar, in Rome, you know, wandered straight up to the bar, saying to the barman "Hey Jimmy, give us two pints of heavy." He says "What!". In italian, you know. He says "Give us two pints of heavy, know what I mean." He says "We don't sell heavy in Rome, you know." "Oh, what a bore. What've you got there, I don't know anything Italian, baby." He says "You are welcome to anything you see here, you know" "Hmmm. Do you know anything." "No, I don't know anything." "I tell you what. What does the Pope drink?" He says "Well, he likes a glass of Creme de Menthe from time to time." "Gives us two pints of that, then." [???] Two green pints duly arrive. "Well, all the best. When in Rome, get it, 'when in Rome'." "What do you think." "It's a bit like drinking Polar Mints, ain't it?" "Ah well, who cares. Another two pints, Jim, no, keep your hand in your pocket, give us another two. My round. Same again. [On eight???] empty it."

They wake up in the morning, in a crumbled heap, in a doorway. Peed the trousers. Steam [???] And they've been sick, down the left side of the jacket. They have been shouting huey all night, right. "Hu-ey hu-e-ey" And occasionally Ralph. "Hu-ey. Ra-alph. Ralph. Huey." And it's green. Green huey or Huey Green, if you like.
In Rome, the two guys are lying in the doorway, and they are just getting awake, y'know. "Ohhhh. Ohh my head. Christ. Oh, I think I'm wearing an internal balaklava. Oh. Oh, my body's all sore. Ahhh! I cannot feel my leg!" "That's my leg, you [???]" "Oh, thank Christ for that. Got a fright [???] How are you feeling?" "I'm feeling kind of funny. I think I've had a tongue transplant. This one doesn't even seem to fit." "Jesus, they say the Pope drink that stuff. Not any wonder, they carry him about in a chair."

Billy connelly, yes he did tell alot of shite jokes. Last Christmas my grandson aged 10 was staying with us, he watched Mrs Browns boys on the tele in his bedroom, the next morning at the breakfast table he told his Grandma that he did not want a fecking boiled egg. I sloped off to the bathroom for a good laugh.

He was quite right. An Ulster Fry is the only acceptable breakfast over Yuletide.

Only use VIC Vapour rub mate. good for clear passages.

Just finished working out Christmas bonuses for you all. Usual (Expensive dry docking) over the Christmas period. Those wishing to spend Christmas at home may do so. I will be remaining on board as always to oversee the dockers at work on treble pay. we will be in the invisible dry dock in hull in a few days. Marry Christmas to you all.

Have you a calendar? Christmas is a fortnight away, we could make it to Dundee if anyone has the stomach for it.
