Law-breaker.

Garden fires should not be lit until dusk, for this very reason.

Anti-social git. :spank:

so... join the Union!

My application will land right on top of yours to join the Tory party.

one permanently yappy dog over the fence before and after dusk DESERVES occasional pre-dusk bonfire retaliation!

JOBSWORTH!! :wink:

Young lad and his dad won Pointless tonight. Alexander Armstrong asked the lad: "You're from Manchester. Are you a United supporter?

"No,I follow Bolton" :oyea:

Why didn't you just surprise her with one and give it the old "Darling, this is for you"? :conf:

She's tooo clever to fall for that.

I only have trainers, spikes, football boots, astros, a pair of boots and flip flops for the summer. I haven't bought a pair of shoes in agggeeeesssss. The kids however, have far too many pairs of 'shoes' - especially Jessie. :oops:

Took all the loose change that I throw into an ice bucket when changing my trousers down to one of those money sorty outy jobbies at the supermarket, and I'm now £200 better off than I thought I was

(though they do charge you 9% for doing it).

it was only a couple of weeks ago she had her first proper pair surely!!!

I don't actually own a pair of trainers although I did once have a couple of pairs of Vans.

I suppose my favourite footwear are my limited edition vintage DMs (1460 pairs made) that were about 175 quid.

I remember the days when they were a working boot not a designer accessory - times change!

Well yes, but she had a wide variety of sort leather soled ones before that...

but you're not interested in shoes, are you, errrr..... :wink:

(or are you saying MrGG buys them for her!!)

and... at a little over 1yr old - why the huge distinction in your mind about what is a "girl's" show and what is a "boy's" shoe? Sounds a bit like classic gender-stereotyping to me!! :wink:

I was playing it up slightly! The main reason she has more then Jack is cos I saw more girls ones I liked that were on offer then boys ones! And you are correct, I am indeed guilty of gender stereotyping. Whilst Jessie has pairs of blue shoes Jack has no pink ones... I will go hang my head in shame!

Bruce Rioja · **Posted:** Wed Mar 14, 2012 10:33 am

The former Mrs Rioja must've fallen on hard times if there are any shoes left for the rest of womankind!

You do realise that you can pay your shedload of loose coins straight into the machines at most banks these days, don't you? They don't rip you off with commission on it either.

You paid them £18 to be given £200 which was yours anyway? :shock:

Reminds me of the time I threw some change into a busker's hat and he called me back to point out I'd thrown a Euro coin in there as well. I almost felt myself about to apologise and then somehow heroically stopped myself from strangling the plank.

Today I'm happy about......
