Snooker Loopy, nuts are we,
me and him and them and me.
We'll show you what we can do with a load of balls and snooker cue.
Pot the red then screw back for the yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black.
Snooker Loopy, nuts are we,
We're all Snooker Loopy.

Was unable to sleep, and nothing on TV. Ended up watching a film where a cop who doesn't play by the rules avenges his partners death. Didn't catch the title and I expect it doesn't matter all that much.

At least his partner wasn't a dog I suppose...

Or a robot,
Alien,
Foreigner,
Native American,
Kangaroo,
Monkey,
Car,
etc etc!

Sounds like a good movie, I was bored the other night and ended up watching "Executive Decision" Steven Segal dies about 15 mins in which makes it all the more watchable!

Did enjoy Rambo 4 though, funnily enough the theatre was full of foreigners!!!

Hi all.You have snow! We've had record rainfall (200mm) plus IN A NIGHT and record temps (40C at the end of summer). It could be better, Especially when you're not washing rooms out and checking there are no brown snakes, red bellies or blacks waiting to say hello.

Jack the R probably wouldn't like it, used as he was to London streets.

Cheers

Cute?? Cute??

Now THIS is cute.......Tank the cat, pooped from a hard day delivering holiday candy!! When I die, I'm coming back as one of my cats!

Cheers!

With HUGE thanks to Ally, who just explained, in comprehensible ENGLISH I might add, how to upload a jpg from my poor Mac. AND, NO, I AM NOT SLAMMING NON-ENGLISH SPEAKERS.....I AM SLAMMING THOSE WHO SPEAK INCOMPREHENSIBLE COMPUTERESE!

Tank looks like i feel, "cream crackered"

I love rollercoasters, after the ripper case that is my passion, I have ridden every coaster the uk has to offer, and took my son on his first "woodie" coaster last year.

Anyway, I have rollercoaster tycoon 3 on the pc and I wanted to download some of the custom made scenery from the many websites so i asked how to do it.

I am then bombarded with Computerese, including zipping and unzipping files and loads of other guff, anyway, I stick to building basic ones now!!

I mocked 'Rita, Queen of Speed' until I went on it. I felt quite queasy.

[Mike Covell]

I love wooden coasters, so we always visit Blackpool, I spent a day riding everycoaster there over and over again.

I love the Nemesis, Rita, The Big One, but you cannot beat a good woodie.
I found an account on youtube the other day which featured all the old rollercoasters, it was so sad to watch.

I just wish i had a garden big enough for a "Back yard coaster", a wooden one of course!

I have a vague recollection of one with carriages in the shape of a mouse, but as I've never been to Blackpool sober I could well have made that up.

[Mike Covell]

You remember well in a drunken state,

The Wild Mouse is a National Heritage site, but still open to public.

Now down a bottle or two and relive that drunken visit once more!!

Whatta ride!!

computerese?? BLECCHHH!!

Mike........EVERY time I try to get a geek to explain anything to me, I get one of two answers:

1) click on the shinglefratz, delete the ipsonoger, frang the whisfrump and THERE YOU ARE!!
OR, WORSE

2) Can't really explain it except sometimes computers do things like that.....

SO, I've decided that Ally is now my computer guru 'cause she can speak NON-computer, and frankly, I don't need to know HOW a computer does anything anyway. That's why I love my Mac......old, slow, but really pretty easy to deal with, AND it usually behaves when I wave a hammer at it!

This is what Tank thinks about those who speak only computer......

Think I'll go take a nap.....all this talk has worn me out!!

Roller coasters?? LOVE to look at 'em, won't ride 'em...don't ask!

Cheers to all and I LOVE this thread. Great diversion for a rainy day......

That's sneaky. Building a pyramid on your cats head while it's asleep.
