Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Paddy took 2 stuffed dogs to Antiques Roadshow
"Ooh!" said the presenter, "This is a very rare set, produced by the celebrated Johns Brothers taxidermists who operated in London at the turn of last century. Do you have any idea what they would fetch if they were in good condition?"
"Sticks?" Paddy said.

I hope they don't know where to find you Hom3r, that may be construed as racist (Irishist?) Who knows? Funny nonetheless

Yes - I had too much to do.
A squeeze test from last week came back negative. Relief!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I am in a happy mood today, I bought a CD of Tompall & the Glasers Brothers. I have been looking for it for a long time. Listening to it just now and singing along with each song

What a marvellous idea. It also helps to make Christmas less greedy and selfish than it has become

I just love being shouted at by a cross Welshman?

I dislike noisy Welshmen too Gilbert always gets zapped off my TV straight away before he starts.

I dislike TV's that are too large for a room, but in your case it may have been bought to help you with your disability

Yes, many jokes work just as well and are just as funny without the need for racial stereotyping etc

I don't dislike Welshmen unless they're rowdy. As with anyone else really.
I'm fine with anything tuneful and harmonious, no matter how loud. And Gilbert's observant comedy no matter how cross he seems to be - well it's his style.
Gilbert just about cracked my ribs - especially his 'anger management skit'
Silly so-and-so really does seem to have had a battenburg cake tattoo on hs shoulder though

Very interesting and, although I only know you from our interactions in a virtual community, I can recognise quite a few areas in that assessment that seem to fit you.
Did Natalie get tested as well?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Natalie did indeed get tested - it was all part of out ministry training. But I'm not going to post hers unless I get permission first.
I value my life

It's been interesting so far. Myers Briggs method apparently.
