There was a young girl from Devizes
Whose tits were of two different sizes One was quite small And was no use at all The other was huge, and won prizes So goes the well known limerick, written about a young lady called Lily who used to live in the Somerset town. Lop-sided Lil, they used to call her. She finally had enough of all the taunts and got a silicone implant in one of her breasts to even them up. She also had a custom T-shirt made with the slogan “1 new” emblazoned across her chest and invited people to guess which was the new one simply by feeling them. Overnight she changed from an object of ridicule to the most popular gal in town. Here’s a photo of her – (1 new) Next: Lily The Pink |

I randomly had a look at page 92 last night.
It appears that the migration of the AFCL thread went less than smoothly. Quite a few posts have been cut short in their prime: Page 92 momm 18:34 – most of it missing boggle 11:54 – half missing boggle 21:51 – his Amazing Fact on the subject of ‘Kiss Me” is completely missing boggle 20:51 – half missing boggle 18:24 – half missing Page 93 momm 16:28 – half missing boggle 07:27 – half missing momm 13:25 – most of it missing momm 14:12 – half missing boggle 20:14 – most of it missing momm 16:22 – completely missing bar 4 words momm 05:38 – half missing Posts by either myself or boggle seem to be the only ones affected (or infected) by this peculiar peculiarity. Just had a quick flick through pages 90 & 91. Same story. A lot of boggle’s amazing facts have been cut short. I haven’t looked back any further but I imagine it’ll be the same story. Mine are of no great loss to the thread. But that Betfair should so annihilate so many of boggle’s AFs is nothing short of sacrilege. Questions will be raised in the house. |

Madison Square Gardens is where questions will be raised in the house after the fight contended by Lilley - aka Lily - The Pink.
Next: Nancy Boys |
|
By:
The Shattered Helmet and The House on the Cliff (Richard) are two of the most popular stories in Edward Straightmayer’s adventure books for children - The Nancy Boys and Hardy Drew Mysteries.
The Missing Bum Chums and A Finger in Hiding are also popular, though not as popular as The Secret of the Brown Tunnel. Next: In you end - Oh! |

Momm, I'd noticed that and assumed it was a bug with the way it displays on my computer, because shortly before the forum changed, I looked back and noticed that there were loads of apostrophes missing from my posts (no one else's) - far more than would be down to typos or illiteracy. Seems that's not the case then. Fecking betfeck.

The most bizarre thing about it is that this migration bug seems to have singled out you and me. Are they trying to tell us something?
|

It's certainly strange, and a bit unsettling, is Big Brother watching that closely? Where are the bits going that appear to be cut out? I notice that some have been cut completely leaving just an empty box - I've been wondering how to do that for some time manually, and now they've done it for me!

Hmmm... new method.
On the previous forum all you had to do was click on bold and submit and you got a blank post. That won't work now. Now you just type a space and submit. That didn't work before. I used to type blank posts to bring the fred to the top because it took up less space than typing ttt. It seems there's no advantage now. |

MOMM, Devizes is in Wiltshire, not Somerset.

Well done private crags. I was wondering who'd be first to notice that.

I hate to be a pedant, but technically mine was next.

Noticing that boxing rings were not ring shaped at all, but in fact square, the designer Harvey B. Ballbanger III desiged and built his new boxing venue in 1867. It was round in shape so he called it Madison Square Garden.

Colly, the next was 'Next: In you end - Oh!' before crags stuck his/her unwelcome oar in yet again.

Sorry Tommy, I refreshed the thing and this whole page didn't appear!

No worries, Colly. This new forum is very strange indeed!

I've had that too Colly. Makes you look a complete fool sometimes.

Hi Moody, how you doing?
Just looked at pages 92 and 93. What a mess! Some of boggles masterpieces have been ravaged! Luckily mine are still intact. [;)] |
|
By:
Fine thanks Colly. Hope you're well too. Don't see enough of you recently.
It is a mess. I haven't looked back any further yet. Might do so later this evening to see the extent of the damage. Fortunately I have the whole thread stored on my computer in case we ever lost it completely. If only there was a way of editing individual posts so they could be restored. |
|
By:
Yes I'm fine now thanks, glad you're doing well. Brilliant that you've saved the thread. It would be a real shame if it were lost as many of the contributions by you, boggle. Rod, Tommy and others are absolutely superb. They're better than most of the shiite purported to be comedy on the tele. Should try and make them into a book or something!
I dont get on here very often these days, been busy with other things. Keep up the good work anyhow! |

If you're having trouble following the plot, you have a choice of three for the next Amazing Fact...
Next: In you end - Oh! Next: Yours Next: The shape of things to come ...or any combination of them. A triple-header would be nice. Don't get many of those. |

making a Fire from a Can of Coke and a Chocolate Bar
strange but true A humorous take on this process, from "John" Apr 2005: This is a joke, right? I tried this several times and found it impossible to complete this task without eating all of the chocolate. I even tried some cheap chocolate, like Palmers, that didn't taste very good. I still failed. Any suggestions? My wife thinks I should put duct tape over my mouth. I think that's a bit drastic. no joke www. wildwood survival next: pleading the 5th amendment |

Looks like Tommy's pleading the 5th amendment on that one.
Next: HTH |

By:
'HTH' is internet slang, popular amongst young people and losers. Usually placed at the end of an online exchange, it stands for 'Highway To Hell' and is an indicator that they think the person they are talking to 'Rocks'.

When Baden-Powell was under siege for 200 days by Boer at Mafeking, he telegraphed a short note to Lord Wolseley, his commanding officer:
%u201CGetting desperate here %u2026 stop %u2026 not been out for 200 days %u2026 stop %u2026 in urgent need of relief at Mafeking - must come at once %u2026 stop%u201D When a tart arrived with an accompanying note saying, %u201CI know how you feel! This is Mabel, she%u2019s been cleared by the company physician and likes it up the sh!tter - hope this helps%u201D the puritanical Baden-Powell was so shocked he decided to devote the rest of his life to scouting, for boys. Next: R2D2 is a standard opening in chess. It%u2019s usually countered by C3PO, which then brings a response of K9. If black then moves IG88 white is forced to move his Bishop. At this point it%u2019s Hal over as white plays T1000 and the game terminates. Black and white shake hands and white comments that it was nothing personal. Next: I keep trying to come up with something, but the onankers keep beating me to it. Next: The Andrex puppy was meant to imply that wiping yer bum with their bog paper was just like wiping your bum with a puppy. Next: Anticlimax |
