Ive got 2 friends who both use them,and have done so now for a couple of years..instead of lighting up they have just swopped to vapourising!!!Its like a swop shop when they are together..."have you tried this flavour or that flavour?You can even get a Jack Daniels flavour Yes we have got a cleaner too..as well as a gardener, dishwasher,part time car mechanic and a general labourer........and in my spare time :H.Glad the jokes make you smile...its kind of hard sometimes where to draw the line with correctness! anyway you have a good day

    Morning Lav....$200....heres a biiiiiig cup of coffee!!how are you today? good move on your daughters part not doing the camping thing.Still got a wee bit to do in the garden but its "pottering about time now...theres a little border at the back fence I need to sort out properly, but thats an as and when job....The front border looks pretty good..especially with the grass cut.Out the back in the fields now,we have 10 horses in the field just behind the garden ,and beyond that one the farmer has put his longhorn cattle in it See him checking them at least twice a day so I think they are coming up for calving..hope he puts them in the field behind us same as last year...have you any plans for the weekend? mulch pile perhaps?Have a great day

    As for looking after those 2 scrotes in hospital..agree entirely..as an outsider I would quite happily choke them to death, but when you are in a professional service delivering a professional service, the goalposts change and you switch off to the whys and wherefores and get on with it..The soldier that was murdered, lived in Middleton, probably about 7 miles from here..apparently his house is under armed guard now..dont know why

    Right thats it...time to get on wi me chores.....sigh!!! have a great day

    Piccy start for the jokes!!!



    I met a Dutch girl with inflatable shoes last week,

    phoned her up to arrange a date but unfortunately she'd popped her clogs.

    A team of archaeologists was excavating in Israel when they came upon a cave. Written on the wall of the cave were the following symbols in order of appearance:

    1. A dog 2. A donkey 3. A shovel 4. A fish 5. A Star of David

    They decided that this was a unique find and the writings were at least more than three thousand years old. They chopped out the piece of stone and had it brought to the museum where archaeologists from all over the world came to study the ancient symbols.

    They held a huge meeting after months of conferences to discuss what they could agree was the meaning of the markings. The President of their Society stood up and pointed at the first drawing and said, "This looks like a dog. We can judge that this was a highly intelligent race as they knew how to have animals for companionship. To prove this statement you can see that the next symbol resembles a donkey, so, they were even smart enough to have animals help them till the soil. The next drawing looks like a shovel of some sort, which means they even had tools to help them. Even further proof of their high intelligence is the fish which means that they had a famine that hit the earth whereby the food didn't grow, they would take to the sea for food. The last symbol appears to be the Star of David which means they were evidently Hebrews."

    The audience applauded enthusiastically and the President smiled and said, "I'm glad to see that you are all in full agreement with our interpretations."

    Suddenly, a little old Jewish man stood up in the back of the room and said, "I object to every word. The explanation of what the writings say is quite simple. First of all, everyone knows that Hebrews don't read from left to right, but from right to left. Now, look again, It now says: HOLY MACKEREL, DIG THE ASS ON THAT BITCH!"

    A young boy was sat in class scratching his crotch. Teacher asked him what was wrong. The boy was embarrased explaining that he had recently been
    circumcised and it was itchy. Teacher tells him to go to the office to ring his mum for advice. The boy comes back into class with his **** hanging out!
    'What on earth are you doing.?' asks
    the teacher. Boy replies, 'My mum said if I could stick it out till lunchtime she'd come and get me'.

    An Irishman, an Englishman, and a Scot were sitting in a bar. The view was fantastic, the beer excellent, and the food exceptional.

    "Y'know" said the Scot, "I still prefer the pubs back home. Why in Glasgow there's a little bar called McTavish's where the owner will buy your 5th drink after you buy 4."
    ...
    "Well" said the Englishman, "at my local, the Red Lion, the barman there will buy your 3rd drink after you buy the first 2."

    "Ahhh that's nothing" said the Irishman. "Back home in Dublin there's Ryan's bar. Now the moment you set foot in the place they'll buy you a drink, then another, all the drinks you like. Then when you've had enough they'll take you upstairs and see that you get laid. All on the house."

    The Englishman and the Scot immediately pour scorn on the Irishman's claims.
    He swears every word is true.

    "Well" said the Englishman, "did this actually happen to you?"

    "No, not me personally," said the Irishman.
    "But it did happen to my sister

    Just got 15 Valentines cards! It's left me completely breathless.

    That security guard at Clintons gave quite a chase!

    An ugly girl approached me where I sat alone and she gave me a big smile.

    'Single?' I asked.

    'Yes,' she smiled. 'How did you guess?'

    'Because you use this bus every fucking day. ??1.80 please,' I said, handing her the ticket.

    I've just come out of the chippy with a meat and potato pie, large chips,
    mushy peas & a jumbo sausage. A poor homeless man sat there and said 'I've
    not eaten for two days'. I told him 'I wish I had your fucking will power'

    A fat bird served me food in McDonalds at lunch time. She said 'Sorry about
    the wait'. I replied 'Don't worry you slob you'll lose it eventually'

    My father fought in World War I single-handedly destroyed the Germans' lines of communication. He ate their pigeon.

    Paddy calls a wrong number at 3am. "Is that O'Malley's Bar?" he asks. "No it's not, this is a private residence." "Oh, I must have the wrong number. Sorry to have troubled you," says Paddy. "Ah it's no trouble," says the stranger. "I had to get up to answer the phone anyway."

    A fella walks into a pet shop and says: ?Give me a wasp.? The shopkeeper replies: ?We don?t sell wasps.? He says: ?There?s one in the window.?

    A fella walked into hospital and the doctor said: ?You?ve got three minutes to live.? The man said: ?Can you do something for me?? ?Yes,? he said. ?I?ll boil you an egg.?

    I don't think my wife likes me very much. When I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

    A fella said to the doctor: ?What?s the good news?? ?You?ve got 24 hours to live.? He says: ?What?s the bad news?? And the doc says: ?We should have told you yesterday.?

    * I rang British Telecom. I said, ?I want to report a nuisance caller.? He said: "Not you again.?

    My uncle Jimmy took liver salts twice a day for 40 years. He died on Sunday, was buried Wednesday and the following Friday they had to go to the cemetery to beat his liver to death with a stick.

    My wife said to me: ?If you won the lottery, would you still love me?? I said: ?Of course I would. I?d miss you, but I?d still love you.?

    An Irishman's wife gave birth to twins. Her husband demanded to know who the other man was.
    A brilliant young boy was applying for a job with the railways. The interviewer asked him: "Do you know how to use the equipment?" "Yes", the boy replied. "Then what would you do if you realized that 2 trains, one from this station and one from the next were going to crash because they were on the same track?" The young applicant thought and replied "I'd press the button to change the points witho...ut hesitation." "What if the button was frozen and wouldn't work?" "I'd run outside and pull the lever to change the points manually" "And if the lever was broken?" "I'd get on the phone to the next station and tell them to change the points," he replied. "And if the phone was broken and needed an electrician to fix it?" The boy thought about that one. "I'd run into town and get my uncle" "Is your uncle an electrician?" "No, but he's never seen a train crash before!"

    Two women that are dog owners are arguing about who has the more clever dog. The first woman says 'My dog is so clever that every morning when the paper boy comes he picks the paper up off the floor and puts it on the table'. The second lady replies 'I know.'. How replies the first lady? The second lady says 'My dog told me'

    A gypsy girl is about to get married.

    Her mum says, ?Emerald, do you realise that when you are married, your husband will want to stick his prize possession in to where you pee?.

    The daughter replied, ?Shut up Ma, how the hell is he going to fit his Transit van in the sink??

    The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in Syria and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.r />
    The Scots have raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to "Let's get the Bastards." They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years.

    The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Collaborate" and "Surrender." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France 's white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country's military capability.

    Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides."

    The Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose."

    Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels .

    The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.

    Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be alright, Mate." Two more escalation levels remain: "Crikey! I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!" and "The barbie is cancelled." So far no situation has ever warranted use of the last final escalation level.
    Bloke goes to a doctors:

    Doctor - 'You're going to have to stop masturbating'
    Bloke - 'Why?'
    Doctor - 'Because I'm trying to examine you'

    I'm really worried about my Parrot.
    He keeps saying, "I can't go on, I hate my life".

    My housemate's too selfish to notice. He's always crying.

    A husband and wife are having dinner at a fine restaurant when this absolutely stunning young woman comes over to their table, gives the husband a big open-mouthed kiss, then says she'll see him later and walks away.

    The wife glares at her husband and says, "Who the hell was that?"

    "Oh," replies the husband, "she's my mistress."
    ...
    "Well, that's the last straw," says the wife. "I've had enough, I want a divorce."

    "I can understand that," replies her husband, "but remember, if we get a divorce it will mean no more shopping trips to Paris, no more wintering in Barbados, no more summers in Tuscany, no more Infiniti or Lexus in the garage, and no more yacht club. But the decision is yours."

    Just then, a mutual friend enters the restaurant with a gorgeous babe on his arm. "Who's that woman with Jim?" asks the wife.

    "That's his mistress," says her husband.

    "Ours is prettier," she replies.

    I found a grey pubic hair on my di.k today but I wasn't half as freaked out as the two women in the lift with me.

    I'd been seeing this Nurse for a few days and we finally got round to sex... As I stripped off I said to her, "You must have seen a few ****s where you work? How do you rate mine?"

    She replied, "It's just slightly bigger than most I see."

    I said, "Thanks, what sort of nursing do you do by the way?"

    "I'm a Midwife" she replied.


    The Ferrari F1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday.
    This announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the British government's 'Work for your Dole' scheme and employ some Liverpudlian youngsters.
    The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on how unemployed youths from Toxteth were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds worth of high tech gear.

    It was thought to be an excellent, bold move by the Ferrari management team as most races are won and lost in the pits, giving Ferrari an advantage overevery other team.

    Sadly

    At the crew's first practice session, not only was the scouse pit crew able to change all four wheels in under 6 seconds but, within 12 seconds, they had re-sprayed, re-badged and sold the car to the Mclaren team for 8 cases of Stella, a bag of weed and some photos of Lewis Hamilton's bird in the shower.

    A pervert makes a phone call and a woman answers.

    The pervert, with heavy breathing, says, "I bet you have a tight arse with no hair?"

    Woman replies, "Yes, he's watching the football - who shall I say is calling?"

      Its not a race Mick - but I have cut and pasted my original - except this version doesn't have the cool smilies. You are keeping me away from my bed partner (see below!)

      MAE abstigators!! How are we all ? many of you are asleep as I write this ? others maybe about to wake up and for us Kiwis and Aussies ? we are heading towards beddy byes. Night-night Mr G (well its a bit early I guess).

      I have had a frantic past few days and its not easing up in the week ahead. But tonight will be a chill night ? its also probably going to freeze ? snow predicted next week.

      Apologies for not posting much but I have done a few quickies on other threads.

      Det ? belated happy birthday and well done mate on staying away from the liquid poison.

      Mick, yes ghastly horrible tragedy in London. I hope there are not a series of reprisals.

      Kuya ? hope you are chilling too. Or is it cold drizzle up your way?

      LTLW - well you have a weekend to look forward to without the slack neighbours. Anything else planned?

      Blondie ? ice-cream ? oh yum yum. Thanks for asking after my ALT thingy ? will test in another 2 months and see what it looks like. Sucks tho that my ?bad? cholesterol has risen since I stopped drinking. I ate ? wait for it ? a slice of cheese today.The sin washed over me. But I stopped ? at one slice. So virtuous ? angels played their harps.

      PPQP ? you too are busy with work I see. Well all I can say is ? thank goodness we don?t have hangovers as well.

      YahYah ? are you a bit more on the upper side ? or still feeling down? Any plans?

      Bear ? stay a strong bear for the weekend ? and put the non-booze bus at the front of your list. You sound like a strong person ? so you can do this.

      SL ? I am really sorry that you had a crappy moment this week. Have you managed to get back on plan again?

      SF ? how?s things your way?

      Last but not least, Lavande? (I was just saving all the L?s for one sentence). What?s on the agenda for you weekend? Are you having the family over?

      OK I am now going to bed with the man known as the ?male Bridget Bardot?.
      Calm down Kuya!!! Its Alain Delon and but he is only on an old DVD from 1960 ? the original Ripley?s Game. Its called Plein Soleil. I watched the first 30 minutes last night and it?s very ?seductive? you might say

        Good morning Abbers,

        Mick & TT - thank you both for starting us up today

        Just poured my 2nd cup of coffee to get through Mick's jokes today :H
        You should do stand up comedy for extra $$.

        No special plans for me this long holiday weekend although I am sure I will be feeding & caring for the DIL & grandsons. The mulch pile remains pretty wet Mick so I guess it will sit another day or two - yuck.

        No skydiving plans for this granny Mick although I see that young man G is thinking about going! I'll make some popcorn & just watch safely from the ground :H:H

        Wishing everyone a great AF Friday. I hear Curves calling!!!!
        Lav
        AF since 03/26/09

          Hello Abberonies,

          A cool day dawns in Alabama. Hopefully no rain as I must mow.

          A few good ones today, Mick. I printed a couple out to share with hubby.

          TT, Enjoy your sleep. Rest is good.

          Not much to say except that I am heading into one more day sober.

          I hope all my friends here have/had a good sober day, too.

          Much love,
          Cindi

            MAE Abbers.......quick check in for me

            Good to see all hail and hearty. Where's SF? Or have I missed her posting late.

            I am all good Mick, just a very tiring week and sleepless nights, but life is fine and business is steady ( long may THAT continue)

            Brrrr TT, cold here, plummeted to 7 C this morning, I will have to start wearing jumpers soon. :H:H

            Got the fire going the last few nights, still find the lack of central heating third world, piddling about with wood, poking and stoking and all the mess. Its an open fire not a woodburner and It's only romantic when it is a choice. Any other heating here is so expensive to run. TT I got one of those ecoheaters ..... It's crap in a larger room, maybe alright in a small bedroom if it is on 24/7. $150 .....might as well just paid larger electric bills.

            Did I tell y'all ...I HATE cold! ? :H

            Loved the war jokes today Mick......the Kiwi raising of terror alert is 'Can we have our plane back cos we might need it', followed by ' thank fuck no one knows where we are! :H:H

            Just thought I would share the latest kiwi advert aimed at reducing excess drinking, I saw it for the first time tonight.......love it, true kiwi humour

            SAY YEAH, NAH


            Have a good day everybody....it is midnight here so tomorrow is all good !

              MAE ALL...

              LTLW...thanks for kicking us off. Whew just got that coffee before you headed to the gym.

              TT...see you got a quick coffee on LTLW's thread, good for you. Yup things been busy for me too. Upcoming week should be good though as the boss is on holidays starting today. Although we're drowning in rain here, it was snowing just an hour west of me. :wow: (I put a smilie in for you!)

              Mick...good timing, I'm ready for my second cup. Will be printing my "yes/NO" cards off at work today, thanks. Due to the rain it looks like we'll be cancelling a "How to composte" workshop that was planned for Saturday morning. Kinda glad as I'd rather spend Saturdays with my Dad. Can hardly wait till we get to the "pottering around time"

              Lav...pass the popcorn, I'm with you.

              Cinders...not much to say but you can definetly SHOUT OUT "Heading into one more day sober" that's news worth hearing. Keep it up.

              KY...glad work is steady and fingers crossed it continues for a long while. Your reference to Third World heating reminded me of my visits to my sister in London, only they burned coal there. Sure made the trips to the lou quick.

              Off to read the jokes, think I'll start with the war ones as recommended by KY. Have a great and dry AF Friday all and all to come....PPQP

                :H:H on the jokes today Mick! Bank Holidays - crap weather and traffic jams. Same here (we have WA Foundation Day next weekend) but a bit more outback to get lost in!
                TT - hope you enjoyed your dalliance with the Frenchman last night! I can have just one slice of cheese too - a very thick one
                PPQ - what's the next project after the garden beds? Feels cold enough to snow some mornings here (but I've turned into a woose (?sp?))
                Kuya - I love piddling about with wood and fires - bit of a pyromaniac, methinks. Though I miss instant heat and central heating. Glad business going well. Any parties this weekend?
                Hi Cindi and Lav - can't you get grandkids to help out gardening - might use up their energy

                Have to go look at tiles today - beat that for excitement! I'm not fond of shopping normally, but on the weekend...bleah! It'll be straight in pick some and back out.

                Enjoy the full moon - it was beautiful here last night and this morning - no craziness either!
