What have you bought today?

Finished our 1,000 piece jigsaw of Downton Abbey last night, only took 3 nights and it was a bitch! So today we oredered a 1,500 piece one of a street scene with shops in the background.

You may as well drink a pint of sarsaparilla.

When I was at school in the early seventies, we used to have an old fashioned health type shop opposite and they sold sarsaparilla on tap. We used to think we were in the pub when we had a foaming pint of the dark stuff.

As a young child in Liverpool we used to have a coffee bar/sweetshop where all the teenagers used to congregate each night. Bit like an American diner with high bar stools and cubby holes with bench seats. We would go in there and sit on the high stools drinking sarsaparilla or dandelion & burdock pretending to be 'grown up'.

I just finished a puzzle, took me 3 months, but I am so chuffed as it said 3 - 5 years on the box.

I tried to do a jigsaw puzzle of a cockrell the other day, but found it hard going. When the other half saw me struggling with it, she told me not to be a daft coont and put the corn flakes back in the box.

It’s an insurance job, I replaced a junction, lined up and down and she ended up complaining that I wouldn’t clean her gutters

And what did the insurers say about it?

A 4 pint of Cravendale milk for work. 2 minutes after getting back and making myself a coffee one of the head teachers rang reception to ask if anyone was going to Asda could they pick up some milk. Guess who got brownie points for using his initiative?
