I had the dubious honour today to meet GeordieSparks. Face and name and all that jazz. Came to connect me new gas cooker up after I did my pathetic best to burn the house down with the old one.

A very, very nice fella. All was going well until the missus walked in after a shopping trip. Me: "Alan this is Jan, Jan this is Alan", "Hi Alan" says Jan. "Hi Jan", says Geordie, and then he continues, "So tell me, how'd you end up with a Brummie?"

I was black affronted (offended)!!!!! I'm from Redditch, not Brum!

If you read this Geordie, just found a black rubber hose with a thread and seal on the end that I'm sure comes off your Regin pressure tester (which is a beauty! Engineers appreciate beautiful tools/things).

PM me your address and I'll Jiffy bag and send it through.

Geordie Spark · Apr 5, 2013

Thanks Elmer ....... you won't believe what that little rubber hose cost - almost £20 5 years ago !!!

PM on it's way .......

(yer a canny lad for a Brummie!!)

It doesn't always work like that though.

I used to be Admin on a forum (nowt to do with leccy, gas or plumbing btw) and got on really well with one of the other admin blokes. He invited me to go stay with him & his missus for a short holiday, and off I went. After a couple of days, I felt like slitting my wrists - he was the life & soul of the party in cyberworld, but a pain in the wotsit in the real world.

Then there's the other extreme. I used to chat online with a very nice lady who was extremely funny and witty. We got on like the proverbial house on fire, and after a while we arrange to meet up. She was everything - and more - that I expected her to be and six years on we're still together.

Now, if only I could get her to stop nicking the lead off the church roof and the cutlery from the curry house ...... :wink_smile:

You plonker....Ive heard about those swingers holidays!!lol I keep telling are lass to go on one of those...then I can have some peace and quiet at home on me own...lol

Im not really a fan of the social media/forum thing...I dont do facebook or ****ter! This is the only forum I visit. I find it hard to get accross what I want when Im typing.....it comes out all wrong.lol

Then I take things the wrong way, coz you cant always tell when someone is being sarcastic or serious.

You can normally tell who is just from reading there previous posts/threads. Im the same, If I was any more laid back....id be horizontal.lol
With txt, you can never tell though, even when people use "lol", I never know whether they are laughing out loud properly, or its a sarcastic remark...LOL.
For ages I had my location as "watching MDJ & Geordie in the shower" just cos Mark123 mentioned it in a post..lol

We all know when Geordie is sarcastic, is when his lips move.

He did say he was struggling to find somewhere that served medium rare hedgehog with a fine bisquet sauce. What Geordie meant by that, I haven't a clue (I think that's what he said, they all speak funny to me up here!!)

telectrix · Apr 6, 2013

difficult to judge medium rare with hedgehog, as you bake it slowly in clay, over coals. round here it's all sand, so we're experimenting with alternative cooking methods. tried the microwave, but the hog exploded. have had more success with spit roast squirrel.

Ahhh the post was going so well, you describing your culinary skills in Haute Quisine recipes, that very few would ever hear of....... Then you had to lower the tone and bring back to filth, and that poor squirrel.

Stoat bourginon is a firm favourite, and badger comfret, washed down with nettle tea................. aaaaah champion. (as Geordie would say). :smartass2:

I am surprised (considering that Yorkshire is not so far away) that the Geordies don't try the ultimate delicacy from that so foreign a land
"Fried Ferret" can be really tasty (that's if you can first of all prize it away from the tearful native)

Toonlad · Apr 6, 2013

We just call them pole cats, we only get them fried if they dont carry out safe isolation, before going up the pole to check the transformer.
