Happy International Women's Day. It's seven years since Jim Davidson couldn't find the apostrophe on his keyboard and didn't know how to spell "international" or "bye".
I was gobsmacked to hear the lines I delivered for my mothers eulogy by a friend on Monday - the audacity to not even ask to use the same structure & sentiment right down to the same words -so I can imagine how you must feel😩
This is Bruegger. He learned a highly advanced new trick, demonstrating excellent use of both free will and spatulas. 13/10 (TT: maddmaddmad)

Loved driving past & seeing on the way to school & his following the long battle with the council to keep it there -the legs of the penultimate picture palace - now seen on the duke of york (not that one!) cinema in Brighton

Dad's fess: when I was a kid, my rabbit died. He replaced it and didn't tell me. Years later, that rabbit died too. I cried for hours. "You didn't cry this much when the first rabbit died." he said, trying to comfort me. "What do you mean when the first rabbit died?" - horrorfied
grandma had a twin that was not the shy & retiring sort -G’mar would be standing at bus stops or cafe’s trying to explain to one chap why she hadn’t turned up for the dates-only when she persuaded her sister to prove they were twins did he believe her-married for 70yrs -Aunt missed out on top bloke!

I always think of that classic line (she’s wearing a shellsuit snaping the waist band) in Victoria Wood’s Dinnerladies - ‘they’re a real boon - you can be bare arsed in seconds’

A reader‘s letter in the times which reads as follows: Old adversaries Sir, Your obituary (Jan 19) of Mr Justice Blofeld rightly referred to his fine sense of humour. When he first sat in Winchester a barrister called Richard Bond stood up to open the first case. Mr Justice Blofeld began to stroke the white ermine on the sleeve of his High Court judge's robes as if stroking a cat. He then said with a smile: "We meet at last, Mr Bond."
