Cleopatra Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I hope Geoffrey finds the label. I really would like to see it. It would end my constant wondering what could have been in the bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Dizzy do you smoke a pipe and play the violin? No... cigs, guitar and keyboard for me. But my dad smokes a pipe and my sister can play the violin if that counts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Might do. Dad smokes the pipe, sis plays the violin and you tread the carpet, all together in a locked room till the solution suddenly hits you smack in the face! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Wonder how many staff have been made redundant or taken a wage cut, while Geoff's been faffing about over this stupid bottle?! Lighten up obs old chap, it's only a bit of fun, all topics can't revolve around world affairs and politics for you to resolve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Not sure WBC staff will see the "lighter" side of it Alg? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 For goodness sake Obs get a grip, lighten up and stop being a prat People are entitled to talks about or ask questions about anything they like on here. If forum poster Geoff decides to go litter picking in his OWN time and post things on here in his OWN time (even if they are a little odd at times) what the heck has that got to do with people possibly being made redundant at WBC. Would you moan if he went fishing 4 night a week and uploaded pictures of his catch or just sat here cutting and pasting jokes or simply posted links to news articles from the national press ? Yep.... I guess you probably would because you clearly have an issue with certain 'things' and types of 'people' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Dizzy you can always tell an old councillor by his tune - well only the old grummpy ones. Why can't people just accept a simple lighthearted question for what iy is - some of you are getting really troll like .... but noone has come up with an answer yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Alan Noone plays dominos and bowls for the same club I do, is it him as a another option it is not off one off those water guns by any chance. I am trying (or so people tell me) to find out and have even had a look in google images of soft drink bottles and water bottles but have not seen anything like it so far.

Dizzy Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I looked on google images for the same yesterday Evils but I didn't like to mention it Even worse than that I have now found myself drawn towards the drinks isles and chillers in shops and also the baby isle and the cleaning section. I even picked up a selection of drinks that were shrink wrapped in packs of 4 so I could peer in to see what the bottles were like OMG I wonder what their cctv images show. A weird woman who was clearly upto something a little odd I guess Has anyone else found themselves doing that > Anyway... they do NOT sell anything similar in any of the isles in the co-op or local spar around here See what you have done Geoff... YOU are turning us all into anoraks and I may finish up getting arrested or sectioned PS Trolls, although a little ugly, are very cute and lovable in their own little way so that was really nice of you Geoff.

Dizzy Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 That's a first... I bet you will now look briefly without thinking (before slapping yourself of course) next time you are in a shop though Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camper Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 LOL, I did the same today in Birchwood at Asda and Martins - what a way to spend a lunchtime when you only get 30 mins - so sad - but I am intrigued now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 ... bottle spotting is clearly becoming the new 'IT' trend for October. I guess Asda and Martins don't sell them either then. So who is going to Morrisons, Lidl, Aldi or any of the pound shops tomorrow... and maybe chip shops or takeaways too ? THEY COULD BE CHINESE OR INDIAN !!!

Camper Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 2 poundshops in Birchwood and Home Bargains of course (but can't manage Aldi as well - well bang goes another lunchtime then!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fugtifino Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I'll make a special effort to pop into the Spar shop in Cinnamon Brow on my way home and conduct a bottle survey. It's the nearest shop to where the mystery bottle was found. Top thread, Geoff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Just to complicate the matter, try petshops too. Could be a water bottle for dogs, hence the lip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 You must be interested or you wouldn't keep reading this or commenting Peter Surely even you have to go shopping from time to time so could at least look and think how your street (errrrm forum) cred would rise if you were the one to solve the mystery. PS Take the ice pack off before it melts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Well that really is a problem with a forum like this. When you check and see if there are any new posts you have to look to see if anyone has come up with anything new. And if they haven't you go for a lie down a la Pierre!! :mrgreen: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter T Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I quite often fall asleep at the computer. It sucks the oxygen out of the air. Anyway, Diz. I thought that us mods were supposed to read every post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
