more nostalgia!

[mark]

hard to decide which is my favourite, joe and petunia maybe..

some corkers though, protect and survive FFS!! "don't forget to put your correctly label your dead bodies"!!

how to vote! maybe they should remake that one, - call it "why to vote" but then again, they probably can't think of any reasons

Brilliant! Charlie says, all good stuff. Can't find my favourite one though, "If at work you drop a spanner, it travels in a downward manner".

Sir Isaac Newton told us why
An apple falls down from the sky
And from this fact, it's very plain,
All other objects do the same.
A brick, a bolt, a bar, a cup
Invariably fall down, not up,
And every common working tool
Is governed by the self-same rule,
So when you handle tools up there,
Let your watchword be "Take Care".
If at work, you drop a spanner,
It travels in a downward manner.
At work, a fifth of accidents or more
Iillustrate old Newton's law,
But one thing he forgot to add,
The damage won't be half as bad
If you are wearing proper clothes,
Especially on your head and toes,
These hats and shoes are there to save
The wearer from an early grave.
So best feet forward and take care
About the kind of shoes you wear,
It's better to be sure, than dead,
So get a hat and keep your head,
Don't think to go without is brave;
The effects of gravity can be grave....



It's amazing what you can google lol.

Nice one Mark ,we've just been laughing our heads off while going over the PIFs ,strange how it makes you re-inact them before playing them ..." remember this ,Oh of course you do ...LITTLE DINGY etc etc "

[Ian Alexander]

All good stuff Jim,
I've just got in from my nightshift and been trying to remember that "Get a hat and keep your head".

I've just read my post.......is my life realy this sad and boring.

[willywetegg]

Lol Ian, I think most of us would be of the same thoughts mate. Memories like this from long ago are usually good ones so we associate them with other good things. I don't think that is too bad or sad lol.
