Re: Funnies 2
During my physical examination, my doctor asked me about my physical activity level.
I described a typical day this way:
"Well, yesterday afternoon, I took a five hour walk, about 7km, through some pretty rough terrain. I waded along the edge of a lake. I pushed my way through brambles. I got sand in my shoes and my eyes. I avoided standing on a snake. I climbed several rocky hills. I took a few 'leaks' behind some big trees. The mental stress of it all left me shattered. At the end of it all I drank eight beers".
Inspired by the story, the doctor said, "You must be one hell of an outdoors man!"
"No," I replied, "I'm just a **** golfer"

Re: Funnies 2
Just cost me £1 to put air in my tyres. Used to be 20p. Suppose that’s inflation for you

Re: Funnies 2
Why do you have to pay for that, air is free for all here.
Maybe we could send some over for you.

I use Nitrogen gas, have done for years, after the initial fill of £5/6 for 4/5 tires never have to worry about them again, having them checked by the same Tyre Fitting place is every six months or so is free, can go for years without adjusting but always give the lad a bob or two.
Hi Jimmy I noticed the pun

Costco uses nitrogen as standard. Fine until you get a puncture, just had to replace a tyre as it was not repairable, am well pi--ed off, only about 6 thousand miles on the punctured one.

Re: Funnies 2
#6 john this is the UK remember the days when the term used to be, going to spend a penny. Now it is going to spend 30p. That is if you can a public toilet that is open.
Some airports now charge £3 for a 10 minute drop off/pickup for passengers. No such thing as a free lunch.
Yes we all know Nitrogen is better than air for tyres. But seeing as air already contains 78% nitrogen. Really how many of us are driving a high performance car.
Cool running eh!!!
