"We had to cancel all that weekend's gigs."

Head of Elgin Church Hall not impressed when told he had to return to Elgin Library and re-hire the Glenn Miller and Bing Crosby 78's he had just returned from the previous weekend

Needing to win ALLTHREE remaining matches to win the cup ..........think the girls have been watching Ben Stokes

It all started to go tits up for England when that numpty Anderson declared himself fit for the first test. Despite being a bowler short England should have kept their foot on the Aussies throat when they were 118 for 8. :( Now that just wouldn't have been "British" old chap, cant kick an opponent ...

Given your liking for Serena Williams on the tennis tour, can we assume the Coventry crusher Laura Davies is your golfing idol

Sorry guy's i meant what aftershave you had starting with. I remember old spice. I have never used aftershave. One of my earliest memories is going to a field to pet a cat and her kittens. This was on the advice of new neighbourhood kids who said I had to do this if I wanted to be friends with them...

Nice to see that the American ladies have prepared properly for the Scottish Summer

I think the reason that just about every teenage boy in UK used Old Spice Hi Karate etc was the fact that (just like babycham) it was advertised to the extreem in the run up to xmas. Just about every aunt/grannie etc thought they were doing you a favour when they purchased loads of the stuff from th...

4 of my 5 brothers were into making small bombs. We made our own gunpowder, or emptied shotgun shells and repurposed the powder. Anything that would flash, bang, or boom.....we were interested. Never to damage anything, just stuff to do. We would also stuff match heads into small containers, wrap t...

I met Lulu at the Two Red Shoes dance club in Elgin back in February 1964. Got an autographed picture and a snog... not bad for an 8 year-old.

Don't "SHOUT" about it tam

If she was 8, how old were you ?

Smiffy out LBW ..... and for less than 100 ..... better send him back to batting school

Not sure what deal Smiffy did with the devil during his "dark hours", but it must have involved the devil arranging for any ball that gets caught being knocked from the fielders hands ...... happened FAR TOO OFTEN to be coincidence

When the hell will the England bowlers learn ...... DO NOT get the Aussie openers out ........ you KNOW what comes next

14 - 2 has already become 55 - 2 at lunch and will no doubt be 200 - 2 pretty soon

This comes from the cabinet office who are trying to convince everyone that it will all be luverley ... :-$ No wonder they wanted it to be kept secret https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSKzH-nGaYQ Saw that on the news . Dont dwell on the fear factor , Its a worst case scenario that COULD happen , not...

The EU is a gravy train of UTTER corruption benefiting the French and Germans. 100% correct and all parties have stated they would abide by the 2016 vote to leave in thier last election manifestos .. alas Labiur has d...

More a case of a clown on each side of the pond trying to act above the laws of the land is closer to the truth. At least the Brits are doing something about ridding ourselves of our clown or at least restricting the effects of his insanity

Dont be such a sceptical old Grumpy, we already know for a FACT that on 7/11 POTUS Trump saw people leap to their death (from his window just over 4 miles away), he was also there doing his little bit clearing the rubble even though he and everyone else was in danger from falling masonry etc' and we...
