Too heavy to shoulder on my own...

Was it heavy, Caroline? ;-) :-D :-D

I rest my case ..... :-)

Immense volumes have been written to expand our knowledge & conceal our ignorance.

I think many of us on here should consider leaving our brains to science when we die.....lord knows what's going on in there for most of us... :-)

Preparation H. Is that good for bags under the eyes ?

Was it I didn't notice wasn't on here all morning...that explains GR saying mine had been restored I wasn't aware I had any RR outstanding :-D

So someone actually RR the OP that was RR the other day LOL

Strange !!

I saw the opening post was RR,d again

Was what ????
It' was restored so why RR again??

It's been restored again

Hope Genes has remonstrated with the RR er

Okay.......Lumberjack becomes Cumberbatch...and of course the Brexit reference what would a day be without that reference.....but that was the only Canadian song you thought relevant to either him or Brexit....

that's alright then

I wanted to be
A cumberbatch!
Leaping from tree to tree
As they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia
The giant redwood
The larch
The fir
The mighty Scots pine
The lofty flowering cherry
The plucky little aspen
The limping Roo tree of Nigeria
The towering Wattle of Aldershot
The Maidenhead Weeping Water Plant
The naughty Leicestershire Flashing Oak
The flatulent Elm of West Ruislip
The Quercus Maximus Bamber Gascoigni
The Epigillus
The Barter Hughius Greenus
With my best buddy by my side
We'd sing, sing, sing"
I'm a cumberbatch and I'm OK
I plot all night and I vote all day
He's a cumberbatch and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavatory
On Wednesdays I go shopping and have buttered scones for tea
He cuts down trees, he eat his lunch
He goes to the lavatory
On Wednesdays he goes shopping and has buttered scones for tea
I'm a cumberbatch and I'm OK
I plot all night and I vote all day
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I like to press wild flowers
I put on women's clothing and hang around in bars
He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps
He likes to press wild flowers
He puts on women's clothing and hangs around in bars
I'm a cumberbatch and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day
I cut down trees, wears leopard heels
Suspendies and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear Papa
He cuts down trees, he wears high heels?
Suspendies and a bra?

see now when someone gets upset by that and RR you :-D

Though to be fair the actual sketch isn't on here just the link, and you aren't actually arguing with anyone...so this makes it's a grey area :-)

so let's be quite clear

Dear all

I did ask GR about the sudden onslaught of RR and in many cases swift deleting of comments/threads over the holidays. Here's their answer

"Thank you for your e mail.

Users of the site have the ability to report any posts on site.

We will not allow arguments between members on the community boards these are meant to be a friendly helpful place.

We do have a moderation team who will remove posts if they feel necessary. "

So now it's not just if it's deemed you were offensive it is also if someone feels you're arguing.....remind me are we children or adults?...and how hard is it sometimes to know whether a comment is tongue in cheek or spiteful??....many of us "know" each other and know we can have a friendly dig but now if someone else feels it's arguing they can RR it and it'll be deleted.

You've been warned
:-D :-D

Was refereed to as mental floss :-)

Say what now David??

Kelloge had the strangest reason for corn flakes other than a breakfast cereal

What was the last post on the Bland thread? Apart from Caroline's which is still there

I posted the herb/parsley one liner and then went back into the real world to go about my normal duties.

I can't recall a post on that thread ever being RR'd and it's been going for well over two years

So again dear RR and Genes please have something to be offended about before you report and before you swiftly delete....your own rules state it has to be offensive...both the RR and genes are looking really stupid right now.

Not there now.

Is it Sharron or removed already I don't see it??
