Last Of The Spring Wine.

[Wingnut]

Just thought I'd let yer know summat.

 

Last night, I was looking for me reading specs. I sent the bride upstairs 4 times to look for them. She came down and said that she couldn't find them anywhere. Are your sure you have checked your pockets properly? she asked.

 

I started to pat me self down as you do, and lo and behold, they were in me pants pocket all the time. I never put them in me pants pocket for obvious reasons, I'm not stupid you know. So I have no idea how they got there. She then gave me one of them looks what they are good at doing.

 

The poor bride was a bit mithered at the time, as she was minding our grand child, who had decided to throw one of them tantrums what they have , and screaming at the top of her tiny lungs, and hurling herself to the floor into one of them crocodile death rolls on the lino.

 

Just out of curiosity, I began to count how many pockets I had on meself at that time. With me fishing jacket, Bear Grills shirt, and cargo pants, I was sporting no less than 20 pockets, and I had something in each of them.

 

I got another one of them looks from the bride, as she said; You are far too dangerous a person and not safe enough to be wearing clothing like that with so many pockets in them.

 

Yerve got ter laugh at em ant yer?

I had to laugh as I reread the last paragraph as an image off Nora Batty popped into my head. It is just the sort of thing she would have said to compo.

Thanks Peter, and that's just what I thought Sid. She must have her reasons for saying it though.

Like the post Wingy. But what is a "crocodile death roll"?

You lost me a bit there!

[Wingnut]

A crocodile death roll.:

 

That's what a croc does with it's prey to rip it up.

 

Have you seen the advert with the mother doing the shopping at Tesco's? The child has a screaming fit, and the mother falls to the floor to copy the child rolling about in a fit of temper, because she can't get her own way.

 

A bit like throwing the teddy out of the pram, or spitting the dummy out.

 

I've seen the odd person do it on this forum.
