I bitterly resent the Bank Holiday and wish I was in work
Marmite is made of marmots that have been bled dry, skinned, roasted, toasted, and then ground into a fine powder. This is then added to the blood and the whole lot is boiled until it reduces to a paste form. Which is just one reason why I hate it.
What horrible weather. It is a joy to be back at work.
Sorry - I've spilt some meths and erased the last six moves.

Jo, jo, vid Bromsgrove Napoleon fick ge sej
men, Men, sitt öde kan man
möta på så många skilda sätt

historien upprepar sej

Bromsgrove, lova mej nöjet att älska dej
Bromsgrove, allting känns rätt, och det är min tro
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove

Jo, jo, man värjer sej och fäktas i det längsta
men, men, mot känslor kämpar gudarna
har man sagt
det är som jag hörde en sång
jag tror det är kärlek på gång

Bromsgrove, så har man funnit sini överman
Bromsgrove, mäktig och väldig och stark är han
Bromsgrove, allting känns rätt, och det är min tro
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove

Det är som jag hörde en sång
jag tror det är kärlek på gång

Bromsgrove, allting känns rätt, och det är min tro
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove
Bromsgrove, du är mitt öde, mitt Bromsgrove
Bob the Dog is overworked (and I'm not awestruck by that move!)
What men find hard to understand about women is the fact that their brains exist in three more dimensions. Women call these 'fnutt', 'shop-soiled' and 'mildy acerbic', and this ability gives women their incredible powers of intuition and insight.
A recent survey found most tea-cups are leather.
Most wood is impervious to gamma rays.
Never trust a person who can use the word 'palimpsest' in polite conversation.

Also, if you run out of boot polish, vegemite or marmite is an excellent substitute.
I believe everything PaulWay says.
There will be another along in a minute
In a Tarot reading, the Three of Traffic Cones (also known as the Trefoil Earlobe in Boris's "Nomenclature of the Minor Arcana") means you will suffer second degree burns during a home torture accident. By contrast, inverted the card means you will gain fifteen pounds when you fall into a depression following an over-vigorous sexual encounter which ends in estrangement.
Estrangement is an embarrassing way to die.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning!
I'm going to Basra for vacation this year.
Basra is reknowned for its topless bars and easy going, friendly gigolos.
So is London.
London is also famous for its biannual luvvie hunt, which helps to strengthen the West End by clearing out the old and weak actors. They are dug out of their bars, and chased by ravenous critics, to rapturous applause.
My favourite seduction technique is to half close my eyes and pop my tongue in and out of my mouth in a suggestive manner. It works every time.
The Queen earns a bit of money on the side as a cabbie.

I didn't have too much to drink last night.
Cro-Magnon Man is pleased to announced his marriage to Worcester Woman.

I told you my seduction technique works every time.
I never thought of making a sauce reference as Btd did above.
Bob the dog did something on my carpet.
Break dancing is banned in most china shops.
[Re DrQ] It was a feasibility study. Sadly, DrQu+xum's carpet proved to be unfeasible.
[Re Dunx] Unless you live in Bromsgrove.
[BtD] I actually meant moist china shops. Since Bromsgrove is in the middle of the Atacama Desert, I think you must be mistaken.
[Dunx] I stand corrected.
Watch me eat my breakfast live on the internet! Just plug into your cereal port!
I won a year's supply of chocolate mice in a competition and now every time I use my computer I get sticky hands.

Projoy is a clean-living, celibate, upstanding member of society.

Animals are quarantined when they come over from the continent. This is to prevent the spread of babies.
Babies can actually learn to walk within 3 hours of birth, they're just too damn lazy.
For Christmas I was given a handy bag full of babies, which I use for hanging up clothes, weighting down paper and propping doors open.
Babies are easy to tell apart because they come in three varieties - Walnut, Haddock and Medicine Ball.
Oh bugger, that is true.
Oh bugger, so is that.
Oh bugger, so is that.
I think I'll continue posting in this manner, as I am sure I will receive hearty congratulations from all fellow contributors.
Celebrity update: Cro-magnon Man and Worcester Woman are to split. They don't say where to though.
As I was about to eat my chips just now, they started wriggling out of my grasp and starting an anti-chip-eating protest movement, using bits of torn up greaseproof-paper as banners and asking Sting to sign petitions.
Sting, however, could not comply because he couldn't fins a pen that would write on greaseproof paper. He then drifted off into a trance-like reverie about the symbolic significance of paper which could not be written on.
Sting's next album will be called "Chip Paper Nothing" to commemorate the inspiration for his writing. The chips could not be reached for comment as they have gone all cold and clammy and no one wants to go near them any more.
Elvis Costello has also joined in supporting the chip protest movement by rerecording one of his best-loved songs as "Chipbuilding".
In a bid to publicise related fried fish issues, a spokeshaddock has announced a campaign to modify common words which might be misconstrued as relating to fried food so as to remove the potential for confusion. Thus batteries are to always be referred to as "cells" (voltaic or otherwise), basalt is to renamed as "igneous crystallite" and "assault and battery" is to be reclassified as "assault with violence". In questions after the announcement, the spokeshaddock was asked about missing a trick on the "assault and battery" example in that the word "assault" has been left unchanged, but he replied that changing homonyms like that would just be silly.
There has been news of a split within the fried fish protest movement - cod are revolting. A spokescod announced that they are disassociating themselves from the haddock-led campaign for fried food references to be removed from the language. No questions were taken. The announcement was closed with the simple statement "Cod be with you."
McDonald's restaurant was expected to be heavily disrupted by a protest from their Filet O Fish today in support of cod rights, but the planned demonstration did not materialise. The spokescod said that he and his fellows were disappointed that the Filets had not shown more backbone.
Rutherford B Hayes was 39 feet tall.
Lies can sometimes masquerade as advice.
Dunx is masquerading as the Queen.
Primping is an Olympic sport.
So is lying

My knees are serrated.
At a Who concert in Seattle, sixteen fans were rendered unconscious by the increased level of Hydrogen Sulphide in the atmosphere caused by excessive farting.
That's nothing. The last time the Stones played in Pittsburgh, not only did it smell like a factory that produces both tyres and tuna, but Keith Richards started leaking formaldehyde during "Gimme Shelter".
My eels are full of hovercraft, which they are disappointed about now that they realise that cross-channel ferry is also on the menu and they hadn't noticed.
Dunx plays drums for money.
I went to a hover craft fair the other day, where I saw a man levitating while carving a traditional Welsh love spoon.
I am in love with a spoon. That makes me glad to be Welsh.
Buying tickets to see Radiohead is a stress free process.
I am a spoon.
There used to be three Coen brothers, but the third one stayed in the fountain.
I live in a Welsh love spoon.

I am not all disturbed that I am developing a strange attraction to Nightcrawler.
Yet again the Eurovision Song Contest has showcased the finest in European culture, setting yet higher our shared international standards when it comes to music.
It is totally wrong that the UK Eurovision entry came last! It was a total fix, and Jemini were such clearly talented singers that they deserved to win more than any other country!
KitKats contain about 10% deep fried kitten, which is why they are so crunchy.
John Logie Baird would be delighted by Big Brother.
I'm not back from vacation yet.
The Isle of Wight is famous throughout the world for the vast herds of wild rhino that roam its hillsides. To keep their numbers in check they must be regularly hunted with hounds by the local gentry, and during the hunting season (April-September) tourists flock from far and wide to witness this thrilling spectacle. The hides thus obtained provide a unique combination of water-resistance and breathability and are made into a highly successful outdoor fabric known as Gore-Tex.
Everytime you eat a Galaxy bar, whole galaxies are destroyed. One day someone will eat a Galaxy bar that will destroy our own galaxy, so watch out!
GoreTEX is a political extension to LaTEX.
[Boolbar] Don't worry, Universal equilibrium is assured - since there are million of Mars Bars and Milky Ways eaten each year and Mars and the Milky Way have suffered no visible ill effects we can only conclude that some other force exists to restore balance and prevent the *actual* destruction of the system or planet in question. Probably a savoury force.
[blamelewis] The universe as we know it is kept in equilibrium by breakfast guardians flying around rectifying the wrongs of those who eat Galaxys, Mars Bars , Milkyways and Star Bars. I've seen them on telly, the programme is called Star Brek. It was serialised.
Humans subsisting solely on pampas grass can live for over 300 years.
It's actually just 30 years, it just feels like 300 years.
