Title: A busy day ahead for the Beagle
Post by: Snoopy on February 29, 2008, 09:20:54 AM
Two junior Beagles in bed with heavy colds (or avoiding St David's Day celebrations at school). I doubt they will stay in bed all day (No TV in bedroom) sad24: sad24:
THW has gone, with cold and cough, to school as it is music practice day.  sad24:
Informed head of Minor and Minimus' absence by telephone but assured him they would look forward to celebrating St George's Day in April (Stunned silence from his end  eveilgrin:).
Furniture for THW's bedroom due for delivery this morning.
Mother's Day cards and flowers to organise for the children to present on Sunday
Mother's Day flowers to organise for Mrs S to take with her when she visits her mother on Sunday
Vicar to be telephoned to inform him that Minor and Minimus will not be able to do their double act in Church on Sunday (Mothers Day Service)
Have to finish laying new carpet in THW's room.
Mrs S is going to work Banghead.
I may not be around here much today. surrender:

Trick question ..... you didn't mention Dulux.

BTW Mrs S is teaching colour theory this week .... her students are all having to make a "colour wheel" which helps in deciding what shades go with what. Do you want I should book you in?

Quote
I close my eyes and picture the emerald of the sea
from the fishin boats at Dingle to the shores at Dunehea
I miss the River Shannon and the folks at Skibbereen
the moorlands and meadows and their Forty Shades of Green

But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town
and most of all I miss her lips as soft as eiderdown
I long again to see and do the things we´ve done and seen
where the breeze is sweet as shalimar and there´s Forty Shades of Green

I wish that I could spend an hour at Dublin´s churning surf
I long to watch the farmers drain the bogs and spade the turf
to see again the thatching of the straw the women clean
I´d walk from Cork to Larne to see those Forty Shades of Green

But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary town
and most of all I miss her lips as soft as eiderdown
I long again to see and do the things we´ve done and seen
where the breeze is sweet as shalimar and there´s Forty Shades of Green

You could blame whoever last used the ketchup bottle and failed to screw the top on properly causing it to fly off when you shook the bottle ..... BUT I 'spect that will turn out to have been you.

Just belt her over the head with the bottle as a demonstration of what a deliberate act would have been .... she may then see the difference.

I accepted it in part settlement of a debt for a "private" job that was proving hard to collect the cash on. I only just beat the bailiffs to the door. At times like that one takes what oone can get.

Now here's the story of my life,
I've had fun but lots of strife,
For I was born left-handed, but I'm proud
To be one of the elite, right-handers we can beat
We're the 10% that stand out from the crowd!

But as a little lad, oh the problems that I had
Winding clockwork toys was just a mystery
Tying laces was a pain, couldn't get it in my brain
Everything was back-to-front it seemed to me

Chorus
We're the Cack-Handed Kings, we're the LEFTIES
You right-handers just haven't got a clue
'Cos if you'd been through what we've been through
Then maybe you would feel superior too!

At 5 I started school where I was treated like a fool
Being left-handed I stood out from the pack
And learning how to write was not a struggle - more a fight
For I had my left hand tied behind my back

"Now get it in your head" the sympathetic teacher said
"You use the right and not the Devil's side"
Those supposed men of vision caused me pain and such derision
Is it any wonder often times I cried?

We're the Gibble Fisted Friends, we're the LEFTIES (repeat chorus)

Time then came when my voice dropped
And my face was one big spot
But I was glad to see my teenage years arrive,
Because I use my left, I was different from the rest
And the girls saw me as something of a prize!

I learned some handy tricks in the back row of the flicks
It used to drive my girlfriends all berserk
For their eyes would keep apace of my right hand - just in case
And they never saw my left one go to work!

We're the Southpawed Princes, we're the LEFTIES (repeat chorus)

Well I'm married now, worst luck
But my wife has given up
Asking me to help with chores like peeling spuds,
Or trying to cut the bread, I'll get a 4 x 2" wedge
Lose three fingertips and half a pint of blood

I would love to be a dad, but we've hit a little snag
If you can help please tell us what to do
The problem simply said, is that I'm a left-hand thread
But my wife you see, now she's a right-hand .....OH, YES WE'RE THE

Scrummy-Handed Heroes, we're the LEFTIES (repeat chorus)

Now we reach today, where you stand and watch me play
And yes, I play right-handed it is true
For the very simple fact is that I've had to adapt
Something all we southpaws have to try and do

We have trouble tying ties, writing cheques out, using knives
and scissors made for use in your right hand
And when it comes to sport once again we are left short
In hockey and in polo we are banned

We're the Cuddy Wifter Winners, we're the LEFTIES (repeat chorus)

Now I've finished off my song and as you move along
Please bear in mind the things I've had to say
And please show some respect for your friends who use the left
Thanks for listening to me this Left-Handers Day.
