  3. Mornin' all x The Definition of "Coincidence" A chicken farmer from Suffolk went to the local bar ...He sat next to a woman and ordered champagne. The woman said: "How strange, I also just ordered a glass of champagne." "What a coincidence" - said the farmer, who added: "It is a special day for me .... I am celebrating..." "It is a special day for me too ... I am also celebrating!" - said the woman. "What a coincidence" - said the farmer. While they toasted, the farmer asked: "What are you celebrating?" "My husband and I have been trying to have a child for years, and today, my gynaecologist told me that I was pregnant!" "What a coincidence!" - said the farmer - "I am a chicken farmer and for years, all my hens were infertile, but now they are all set to lay fertilised eggs." "This is awesome!" - said the woman. "What did you do for your chickens to become fertile?" "I used a different cock" - he said. The woman smiled and said: "What a coincidence..."
  4. You may jest. But this came out at just the right, or maybe wrong moment, in my adolescence, and it never fails to make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.

  11. Bin day is one of those odd things which can defy the forces of modernisers. I've said before that my dad has lived in the same house for 61 years. Bin day has been Thursday throughout that time. Bus numbers is another. 144 Malvern to Birmingham is one I know to be well over 50 years old.

  14. As to traditional designs using antique reclaimed or facsimile materials, it has been done superbly by the SVR at Kidderminster and is being done currently by the GWSR at Broadway. So what you do is decide on the internal space you need for the types and quantity of exhibits you intend to display, choose a set of design cues and features from the railway and era of your choice, copy and paste. It's that simple.
  15. A nice, calm and respectable lady went into the chemists, walked up to the pharmacist; looked straight into his eyes, and said, "I'd like to buy some cyanide." The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?" The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband." The pharmacist's eyes got big and he explained, I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband, that's against the law! I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!" The lady reached into her handbag and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife. The pharmacist looked at the picture and said, "You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

  17. Oh dear. Oh dear. Oh dear. Have no GC building designs been kept?
  18. For many years there was a hardware shop in my home town called Worcester Tool and Fixings. Long before their initials acquired their present meaning. I googled it and got systematically redirected to a chain which had presumably taken them over.
