When Santa Claus first put in an appearance - I think it was somewhere in Germany - there weren't that many houses in his immediate vicinity and they had big chimneys. But that was a long time ago. See this: http://www.diynot.com/forums/general-discussion/spoiler-alert-santa.348019/ for...

Don't get me started -- too late! :x :x :x Even in the absence of any other clues, you can always tell when Christmas is coming by the sudden increase in rubbish adverts for those smelly chemicals. My top prize this year goes to something I don't remember (so not much of an advert then...

FIVE! FOUR! THREE! TWO! ONE! Thunderbirds are ---- gone. :( :( :(

horrendous: hours of relentlessly repeated episodes, needlessly depressing, of uninspiring soap :roll: :roll: :roll: (Double posting again Sombrero. You must be desperate. :lol: :lol: :lol: I think we need some help in here. Anybody seen Susie or wotan recently? :?: :?: :?: )

Anger on this site? :?: :?: :?: I don't see all that much. There's a lot of robust humour but that's surely no bad thing. Calorific's post is a good example - and note how the smiley at the end makes all the difference between humour and hostility. 8) 8) 8) Which is probably just as...

I can't be too sure but I think our son had all of those in his Pokemon collection - along with Speed Slug, Slime Dropper and Nematurd. :? :? :? I don't recall ever telling our kids about Santa but somebody must have done because a mince pie and glass of sherry appeared in the hearth one...

That's an interesting observation which, on the face of it, is true. 8) 8) 8) But I'm sure somebody somewhere will tell you that God, whoever or whatever he/she/it may be, could easily have invented things we weren't allowed to do just to see how we would react. (I could list several for...

Special of course! And what a great way to spend your time recovering from a cheilectomy. Feet up in front of the TV, Carlsberg Special in one hand -- :D :D :D

Sorry but that is absolutely not true. :shock: :shock: :shock: Tri-cyclic and SSRI antidepressants are very effective in the majority of cases and even the old MAOI drugs were better than nothing. Left to its own devices, depression can drag on for years. That's if it doesn't kill you...

Will it come in different shades? :lol: :lol: :lol: For the last nine years, I've been pushing fifty from the wrong end but I don't have a single grey hair on my head -- They're all pure white. 8) 8) 8)

Maybe this is relevant; maybe not: I heard on the news this morning that the Aussie radio station tried to contact the hospital five times to ask for permission to broadcast the show.

No I certainly didn't mean that. :shock: :shock: :shock: Problem: We use the word 'love' to mean many different things. Some people 'love' going to the seaside/movies/pub. Similarly parental love and sexual love are two very different instincts serving very different purposes. Most...

Is it fair to compare the best example of one kind of parent with the worst example of the other? :?: :?: :?: I agree that many single parents are not single through choice. Two world wars created millions of them. :( :( :( But the other half of your argument seems to rest on the...

England: Englishmen normally get legless at naturist discotheques.

UKIP are not averse to a bit of bigotry when it suits them: http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2012/nov/27/ukip-candidate-gay-adoption-abuse Now I have to admit that my first thought upon reading that was to agree. Nature intended children to have two parents, one of each sex, and they...

It's also possible that he was conspicuous by his absence for extended periods. Maybe somebody in the know can confirm this (or not) but I would think you don't get to be a Royal Navy officer without spending a lot of time at sea. Absolutely right! And finally, this: says a lot. I...

He does have two big toes. :wink: :wink: :wink:

The car has been bought and guess what, the salesman tried to sneak the Supagard and its associated 'care kit' into the deal - and if I'd been a little less vigilant he would have got away with it too! :evil: :evil: :evil: But he didn't get away with it. I told him in no uncertain terms...
