|
By:
Think I'll stick to the likes of PB and BB for the time being.
Never heard of them went to the pictures with a few mates to see the film will try and dig them out cheers. I'd give Trainspotting 2 a miss (T2) thought it was pretty shyte watched it not knowing what to expect just didn't land with me. |
|
By:
*Never heard of the Lockstock series*
|
|
By:
Lockstock was another film you got some good laughs from,Rory Breaker who was played by the bloke who played Lennox Gilby in Only Fools when they're held overnight in the supermarket it's the only two things I've seen that bloke in.
|
|
By:
Google the lock stock series denz, I’d never heard of it either but each episode is a mini movie in itself and as good as the main movie
|
|
By:
Aye a mind that only fools episode it had Jim branding off eastenders as the security guard and when the black guy falls asleep and it looks like Rodney’s gan for his gun but nicks his tabs instead

Cheers BRIGGS had no idea.
Aye the timing and patter was superb 'Should've seen the pension this crummy firm was trying to offer me I was going to get less than Duncan Goodhew's barber'. Classic,plenty of those at that time were timeless like the handgliding one superbly written. |
|
By:
Can remember seeing a documentary about Only Fools where John Sullivan was saying alot of his material came from stories that happened in real life the best ones probably can't be made up.
|
|
By:
Not that I'm saying the ones mentioned aren't but the likes of the chandaliers one really happened.

I appreciate all your comments and I thank you all for them , Gentlemen . Of those comments , I especially appreciate the more humorous amongst them . I'm looking at you , BRIGGSY . Thank you especially , B'08 .
REPLIES TO: anubis7 , BRIGGSY08 , akabula , Mouse Muldoon , The Management , Denzil Pemberty & BRIGGSY08 , Just Checking , The Leopard , and last but certainly not least , every ones friend , Johnny_Mustang . REPLY TO , anubis7 . Yes , It would have been far more sensible to have booked into a Hostel , YMCA , or Camp Site , anubis7 . It may very well not sound like it judging from my sometimes mad ramblings on here but I'm actually a very sensible person . I visited Paris on a whim . I've entertained the thought of going to Paris in my mind for over 20 years , as I always do at this time of the year . I always entertain that thought to visit Paris for one reason only .To visit the grave of a friend who is buried in Montmartre Cemetery . Actually , she was far more than a friend , she was My Teacher . A Teacher who believed in me at a very difficult time in my life when nobody else did . About 3 weeks or so ago , as I was watching and listening on utube the beautiful likes of Françoise Hardy sing 'Voila' and Brigitte Bardot singing 'La Madrague' , I determined that this was finally the time to stop living in my mind and go . I spent an hour or so each day learning what lingo I thought I'd need . About a week later I went and bought my coach ticket . That coach ticket to Paris cost me £90.90p . I bought it on Tuesday 25th June and only up until 9 hours before that coach was to leave at 9.15 am on the Friday of the 28th , did I then make any practical preparation for my travel . It may appear not very sensible to leave things to almost the last minute , but that's often what I do because all the things I need to do have already been done in my mind . I'm not a worrier , I used to be but not any more . Despite my having never been abroad before , I was not worried about anything in the slightest . I was excited about it all . I felt like I was a child again the night before Christmas . I started packing for France just before midnight on the 27th June . My packing was done in a few hours . After then having some food and taking a bath , the time was past 3am .I was well aware that I'd not slept for well over 30 hours at this point . I sensibly intended to sleep for 4 hours or so but I then changed my mind and stayed awake until I left for the coach at 8am . In the last 2 months , I've been sleeping for only 4 hours or so each day . I believe the main reason I need far less sleep now is because I've very drastically changed my diet . All my life I've been a sugar freak , I now try to avoid sugar . I also try to avoid Carbs as much as possible . I do the same with Carbs . I don't eat bread , pasta , rice , spuds , etc ... My diet mostly consists of green veg , eggs , soya milk , cheese , meat , fish , certain fruits , tomatoes , onions , garlic , various herbs , and many other very healthy delicious foods . Apart from red wine and the occasional vodka , I don't think alcohol . I drink 2 or 3 herbal teas a day and my consumption of coffee is about the same . I very strongly feel that my diet has helped me to very positively change my life . I may buy some vodka today from Lidl . I've not had any for about 3 months . If I do buy any vod today , I'll drink a toast to not only you , anubis7 , but also to everyone else here at this often mad place . I'll also drink a toast to those that I've met , as it were , during the 3 years that I've been here but are now departed or not currently seen on CC , Usernames like , trillby22 , guinness2dear , RonRusski , Bodil , TheChaser , Joel , McMoonbeam , and the many others who I've enjoyably talked to . Maybe someone can help me , for some strange reason I can't remember the name of an ex chit chatter who was very , very pleasant and friendly to myself at all times . He was and I'm sure still is a most beautiful person . His username sounded something like crabs . Any one remember him ??? OH , I do , do , do , so wish he was back here . If you ever read this my friend , I send to you my love , Dear Boy . |

Sorry to hear that you didn`t enjoy your trip to Paris Culvin. Rome is a much nicer place. I`m sure that you will enjoy that much better.
Is it true that Johnny Mustang has purchased the publication rights to your Paris story? |

I like what you say about Rome , mightymac.
Your words have made my happy travelling feet begin to itch in anticipation . Regarding what you say about , Johnny, If J_M was to do such a thing , I think he'd then hire a writer to give it a rewrite with the request that the hired scribbler makes it appear that I'm a bigger eejit , than I already am . |

REPLY To BRIGGSYO8 .
You asked me was this a holiday or some sort of challenge . It most certainly wasn't a holiday . I looked upon it as a Pilgrimage . I actually took Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress with me . I've never read it before . Buy I may as well not taken it because I only read 3 pages . I wasn't interested in playing the sight seekers game . I saw The Eiffel Tower only once and that was from a distance of a mile or more . I initially only intended to visit Paris to finally visit the burial place of a friend in Montmartre Cemetery . I was then informed by an American mate that if I was to visit Paris then I should try to visit The Church Of Saint Sulpice . I determined to visit that famous Church when my yank mate told me all about The Great Organ and it's very powerful emotional affect it can have over almost all those who hear it . I visited the Church on the Sunday of the 30th June , and while there I heared the great organ being played . I wasn't paticulary impressed to tell you the truth . It sounded like a bog standard church organ to me . I was very impressed by that Church , though . It's the most beautiful Church I've ever been in . BRIGGSY , You also asked me did I get a proper wash . Simple answer , NO. When I was in Starbucks or McDonald's I then took the opportunity to wash my face and hands but that's all I washed . The only pong I was aware of by my keen eyed nostrils was not surprisingly that from my tired feet . I changed my socks twice daily , the very smelly socks I took off I washed and then attached them to my back pack . In the very hot weather of Paris , the wet socks were almost dry in an hour . Who eats raw eggs ? I remember that scene from Rocky , ha , ha . I've been eating raw eggs for over 6 months . During my first day in Paris , I eat 16 . I don't like having a big breakfast and I don't like taking too much time either having one . When I first started eating raw eggs 6 months ago , I would crack open 2 eggs and then whisk them in a bowl for 10 seconds or so , I don't do that now . I now just crack them open and gob them down . Thanks for the questions , All the Best to you , BRIGGSY08 . |

REPLY To The Management .
Bare Grills , Is that his actual name? I thought his name was Bear , if his name is bare , does he go about playing his 'Man of the wild , tough man bU11sh1T games , with his knackers bare ? |
