I remember when I crossed form Aussie rules to soccer (because I was knocked out 3 games in a row - small rover into packs that formed in those days), I obtained a red card in my first game at about the 5 minute mark. Laid a shirt-front shepherd on the other team; was completelty perplexed why the ref blew his whistle - but the mellee that ensued was, well, benign...

 

I've just had a reply to this email to my Mate Jonathan - at Hook Norton. :

 

*********************************

 

Hi Jonathan. .

 

My Mate xxxxx and his family, may well be visiting the Hook Norton Brewery some time soon.

 

I Mailed him ALL the details of the tours and costs etc, some time ago, and he seems very interested in visiting. He's been living and working in the UK for some years and lives here in the UK too. He works in or near London and is in the business, of, something to do with sorting / separating out the Euro / British laws for Brexit at the moment . . . .

 

Of course, I told him that he would be very welcome, and if he mentioned the famous PHIL PERRY. . .that he would get a fifty Pee discount on his visit.

 

Kind regards as always. . .

 

Phil.

 

*******************************

 

Hi Phil. Let me know when he’s coming and I’ll see what we can do.

 

Cheers.

Ooooh,. . .I wonder if that means you'll get special service mate ? ? ? Knowing Jonathan,. . .most probably. !

 

Phil.

Well, I have to oblige such an offer. The wife will prob40 give it a miss, but my step-father-in-law (who lives on FoD - Forest of Dean) will certainly be up for it... 50 free pees is not a bad deal at a brewery ;)

 

I have finally been handed my marching orders (I asked for them) - finish on a couple of weeks time. Of course, one works harder finding the next gig than they do on the gig, but I think I can sneak down (well, from here, up) before xmas - if not soon after...

OK Cobber,. . .don't forget to give me a call, message or phone text in advance so that I can alert Jonathan. . .being the chairman of the board, he isn't at the brewery all of the time. . .

It often happens if the website's SSL certificate has expired. Even the biggest and most reputable companies sometimes forget to renew them on time which can lead to browser or other security blocking them.

And I think that in good old USA, a condom is called a prophylactic or a rubber. But if you go into a chemist (pharmacy) in Australia and ask for a prophylactic, all you get is a blank stare.

 

Don't ask me how I know that.....

 

In Australia a rubber is a thing that I would use for erasing a written error.

 

ENGLISH ! She is a funny language, eh?

A friend of mine explained how he was sacked from his job in a public service office.

 

A young woman came up to him and said "Have you got a rubber Dick?"

 

To which he replied "Don't be personal"

I like the Bobby standing to attention ANPRC25 set ( or something that looks just like one) strapped to his back LOL.

And if that's a fag in his left hand that's very bad form. . .!
