Eck and Tootsie
i feel i must point you in the direction of this site
http://www.turnipmash.com/nakedcrumpet.htm
It does have a PD section so is legitimately included here - but it is also the most innuendo, double entendre filled thing you have ever seen, it is brilliantly funny, a work of genius. or is it just mad cr*p?
Needless to say it was written by me.
Do try a crumpet.

Ah Hah!

Dazzling me with your crumpets, trying to get me on your couch were you you cunning fleshy roundish somewhat conical root. And I thought you were my dream turnip, Turnip! You turned out to be no surprise. There's nothing to you except more turnip, Turnip.

(With apologies to Blackadder and Baldrick)

In truth,I consider you to be a vegetable of great talent, a genius no less. I fall at your feet (or I would if you had any) and give thanks to those that germinated, cultivated and harvested you.

TURNIP FOR POPE/ PRESIDENT/ PRIME MINISTER/ CEO OF THE BBC etc etc

ALL HAIL KING OF TURNIPS (and other root vegetables on sale this week at your local supermarket) !!

Hoorah! Pass the crumpets!!

gBy way of being impartial other stonner drugs are available as well as Viagra, just ask the pharmacist for the generic drug Myolcoxaphlopyn.

I take a half tablet every day. It has no effect on the PD, But its just enough to get it past my slippers.

A little old man shuffled into an icecream parlour and pulled himself painfully
up onto a stool. After catching his breath he ordered a banana split.

The waitress asked kindly "Crushed nuts?"

"No", he replied. "Parkinsons".

Ouch! A bit too close for comfort that, Tootsie!
Hope you're well. Snowing here in Hull, but should be ok in the summer if you're thinking of popping over for the Olympics or the Queen's Jubilee.
Take care.

Cheers ROS.

Massive storms swept over the whole country two days ago bringing high winds, driving rain and huge seas. Today the sun is shining, the sky is blue, the temperature is pleasantly mild and the sea has hardly a ripple.

We are hosting the South African cricket team ( don't ask!) and the Rugby season has just begun.

Its all very confusing.

O/H and I about to launch the dinghy for a spot of evening fishing At least that's still something I can do, although getting in and out of the boat provides entertainment for onlookers and O/H has to wind in the fish for me. (But if I hook 'em they're mine!)

Keep smiling. biggrin

Great joke Tootsie.
I suppose you've seen the story about Warrick Roger? Personally i think people with PD should only swim out of their depth except in very secure circumstances.
