A thread of random things I’m in trouble for this time…
« on: 13 August, 2021, 04:57:02 pm »
As I once said to the vicar, I’m always in trouble, the only thing that changes is the depth.

To its belts. Apparently one should not wear a black belt when on is also wearing brown shoes. Who knew!
For every complex problem in the world, there is a simple and easily understood solution that’s wrong.

Always be careful of people with a black belt.
It is simpler than it looks.

Excellent thread title.
It's up there with: If a man says something, and a woman doesn't hear him, is he still wrong?

Beardy!  At first I thought you'd missed your "Decent Dressing" course , then I recalled you'd spent a large part of your career with the "bohemians" at The Labs. We put them in East Angular for a reason.  :hand:

My Nespresso coffee order is now four days old snd I’ve still to receive a dispatch notice. Their previous reliability of next day delivery had lulled me into a JIT mentality and Dr Beardy (Mrs) is getting peevish at the lack of Creme Caramel coffees.

Get her a jar of instant decaff and tell her to count her blessings.
I've dusted off all those old bottles and set them up straight

Now you’ve not lived a long and happy life by indulging in such behaviour have you Mr T?

I'm seemingly always in trouble although I rarely know what I've done wrong. I asked the other day what I'd done only to be told "well, if you don't know!" What does that even mean? I wasn't about to offer scenarios in case it wasn't that and thus dropping myself in it even more.

It was our 28th wedding anniversary last week.

I offered to help Dr. Beardy (Mrs) with a computing task because, as is often the case, she was making heavy weather of it. I accidentally deleted the source document! Oops. No worries, I’ll jus open the backup copy and rename it. Ok, I’ll resort it to a previous version. Erm, <looks sheepish> have you got a copy of this document anywhere else?

She’s looking for it now!

Can she lift it?
