Hello everyone,members,guests and anyone else browsing the forum.The Jeremy Bamber discussion seems to have been abandoned at the moment,the current war in Europe seems to be of more interest to most membersSo i am afraid i will have to take the oppertunity to tell a short story from my past.I work in the building trade,and one of the guys who worked in the same squad only ever had sardine sandwiches and a small half litre flask of tea in his lunch bag every day.By tea break in the afternoon he had no tea left,and just the heel or end piece of a loaf left.Dry bread again he would exclaim.I would often give him a biscuit and some of my tea,but the trouble was he liked strong black tea.My tea was weaker and had milk in it,so he called it gnats piss,theres gratitude for you.But i still continued to give him some,and he always took it.The same guy used to roll his own cigarettes,but he used so little tobacco in them the papers went up in a blaze when lit.He was left with very little of his cigarette to smoke.I think he was a bit mean.He often used to say-three score and ten,that will do me- referring to the Bible.I often wonder if hes still alive,he must be over 80 by now.Oh well they were happy times.Hope i havent bored you too much,bye for now.
