Yes, being Thatched has it's merits, being Thatchered does not

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

To be bald is quite a delight
One can be easily seen in moonlight
And the girls love to stroke it
And giggle and poke it
And say bald men are so horny at night!

Now running their hands through your hair
Can be a rather messy affair
Their fingers get tangled
And their bangles entangled
And they put up such a struggle and fight!

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Ah,but 'suddenly silver',y'see
wasn't what I expected to be.
From 'you look the part'
to 'ancient old fart'
just didn't fill me with glee.

Now,my good mate Fletch shaves his dome
You'd think his head's made of pink chrome.
From day one he's looked holy
and won't go bald slowly
thanks to Gillette & his shaving foam.

Now,it was ok for him to do
[he's done it since age 22]
But I was 45RM
and you cannot tell them
"Oh,I thought my shiny pink head would SO complement my camo jacket,sarg!"

see?

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

official head apparel must be worn at all times when in camo jacket attair OR you will be fired! cum cum laddie where's ya sense of dress code??

Good stuff lads, can’t wait to go bald after your one Gumbud.
But it’s true bald lads have all the luck, take yerman Kojak, the time he visited Dublin at the height of his popularity the women were screaming for him outside his Hotel, and don’t forget Yul Brynner, hair or no hair a good head is all you need.


When your hair falls out, don't feel sad or down
Some ladies adore a vacant crown
Just keep it well covered and you won’t get the flu
And the bonus is you’ll save a fortune on shampoo
When you’re out with your love on a starry night
And the skin on your head is shining bright
Give her a big smile and she’ll swoon
She’ll think you’re the man in the Moon
But whether you’re from Dublin or Romford
Tis true what they say, "Where there’s hair there’s comfort"

A Rug is a good idea, provided you can Pull it Off.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

We have our fair share of red heads in our dynasty. GInger cousins Ronald & Donald, real names Jim & Bill. They hated each other intensely & were always getting each other into trouble with heinous wind ups.

In passing I should point out that my Uncle Vivian was of an auburn shade & his hair was tightly curled.
What a to do there was at his funeral, there were dozens of tightly curled red heads in the congregation,looking rather overcome I might add , speculating on the odds against so many golden haired folks gathering in one place at the same time.
What a guy.

I remember Tufty, he was of that Ilk, and had bucked teeth.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

I wonder where William is, he was in class 1E, but thought he was in IE, bless, what did life hold? maybe he prompted Internet Explorer.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)

Strange you should mention that,spitters-coz just today I was asked by a youngster [I'd estimate 11/12yo] why we always write WII rather than WW2 or W11. To HER,WII is pronounced 'wee' and is a home 'keep fit' centre [or some such thing] Ok...suddenly we were into the vagaries of the English language and I was being asked [as if I'D made it so,deliberately] how come you can slide,but in past tense you slid...yet you glide,but in past tense you glided,as 'glid' as a word doesn't exist....and THEN she asked why 'ought' and 'taught' sound the same yet have entirely different meanings....and,like the prat I am,I introduced her to 'taut',which she'd never heard of. Oh,yes-that REALLY helped.
Don't even ASK about plough,rough & through! Then we got onto bought,caught and port,ffs!
.....well done,Pug! #sigh#
