How are we getting through it?

[Steve J]

We're all fine but as with most people I've spoken to, pretty bored now and really looking forward to life returning to normal, whenever that might be. Daughter cut my hair again today, which was nice, given the heat and humidity of the past few days. I don't know what I would have done without the clippers we had from when our son was young!

Hey, d_Guy, I hear Marvel are looking for someone to play Odin in the next Thor film.

They need to be mature, to look good in a beard, have gravitas and a commanding presence. They need to be charismatic and exude an animal charm. Women need to see them as dangerous but are inevitably drawn to them.




Do you think Gerard Butler would be interested?

Well, I have to say that in my minds eye I was picturing a certain Mr P Lewis

What ?.....It'd have to be a false beard.

Mostly, I are wearing three days stubble.

Cheers - Phil

Not only would it have to be a false beard, but faux gravitas, faked commanding presence, spray on animal charm and you'd need to get some really good actresses who won't giggle at the "danger".






Sorry Techno.

You know I appreciate you for your unique personality and considerable abilities

All I can say Nobby is that you've obviously never met the man in person

It's okay Phil, they can give you injections to induce up-fuzzing these days.  Plus, like Uncle Anthony, you've spent a lot of time on Welsh hills - it'll come naturally to you if give you it a go 

[Techno]

I'll look even more like Catweazle, if I do that, Meiron !

Cheers - Phil

I'm just going to invite captions.

I'll start with "Get the implement Von. I'm stuck again."

[Orcs]

I'll start with "Get the implement Von. I'm stuck again."

"Just when I am about to have my annual bath Von's taken all the hot water"

or

"Techno was fortunate that a deep muddy puddle broke his fall from the ladder"

[fsn]

 

Careful - Techno will be using the shouting-bone to complain.



Sorry Phil - you said "Catweazle" and my Oik Sense went into overdrive.

[d_Guy]

Catweazle perhaps but I've a more stately and romantic image (here accompanied by fsn):
 

[fsn]

You see Techno as "the Knight Whose Armour Didn't Squeak"?

[d_Guy]

I confess that Milne's knight did not really come to mind as Techno's descriptions of his work life seem to consist more of yelps than squeaks.

[O Dinas Powys]

I'll look even more like Catweazle, if I do that, Meiron !

Phil, what have you done!  




You should have just accepted the complement  

[mmcv]

Not quite what Von had in mind when she asked him to Phil the bath up...
