It's a slippery slope. Have you got hair growing out of your ears and nose at such a rate you could easily be mistaken for a farmer ? That’s another step down that slope. Also, when as a passenger in a car you start reading out loud, the directional road signs, start looking at nursing homes. It’s a fucking matter of time. Glasgow 10 milesErskine Bridge 3 miles ..... Fuuuuuck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horse Donkey!!! ... but then you see a hay bale and reminisce about 'hay-jumps' and state how youths are losing out because they're playing on their PlayStation 62 instead of jumping out of trees. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on a business trip just last week and had 3 young colleagues doing the Harry Worth at a restaurant window. "Hey, that window would be perfect for doing the Harry Worth!" "The what?" "Look, I'll show you." They thought it was brilliant. The diners, not seeing the effect from where they were sitting, were more than a bit mystified though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently I'm not yet of that age because while I do the first 3; when I see hay bales, I start singing "Hey, hey, my, my" from Neil Young's "Out of the Blue." I'm told I sometimes do this out loud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Steele Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Just realised I shouted 'Whit?' at a house For Sale sign when I saw the contact address is for a Real Estate firm. What's wrong with Estate Agent. Bloody Americanisms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some older folks from Dunfermline might be able to relate to this. In my local in these days in the auld grey toon, the barman at the end of the night, come chucking out time had a nice turn of phrase : "Come now", he would shout at the top of his voice, "Finish your drinks please - especially a' youse yins frae the cooncil hooses" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
