TonyV, I remember when a mate of mine started work in a garage, the others sent him down the road to the next garage with a wheelbarrow, to bring back a barrowload of compression. The guys at the other garage told him to go back and find out if they wanted green compression or blue compression.

Wolf63,
My tenure as cat sitter ends in just over a week when their owner returns. I might stay on for a while as a lodger.
Reading reports from Belfast, difficulties getting slots for food deliverys and isolation, makes me think I'm better off here.

[jno]

where are you, sandy? Somewhere warm?

[tonyav]

You may be better off staying in sunny Espana for now, sandy.

[sandyRoe]

Seeing this came from Craigslist the 'unsolicited services' might have been of the 'Ugandan Affairs ' variety. Who knows?

[jno]

Spain? Well, make sure you keep your distance from the Espaniards.

[sandyRoe]

I'm in a tiny village outside Muxia in the north of Spain.
The weather can be warm and sunny some days but earlier in the year there was continuous rain that could have made N Ireland seem parched.

[tonyav]

We had plenty of rain and flooding here to, sandy.

Is this the same guy that was selling chocolate teapots with a lifetime guarantee?

[sandyRoe]

The entire ad is probably a joke. He couldn't expect to con anyone with a post like that

[DTCwordfan]

I know a Libyan Princess who would be interested....but hush, you may have to go to confession if I was to tell you who it was...

[vulcan42]

We sent a new employee for glass nails and a rubber hammer. He came back with a panel beaters rubber hammer and nails for holding glass in a picture frame. He wasn't sent for anything else.

[DTCwordfan]

he could claim that he was framed, vulcan.....

[sandyRoe]

A man like that ^ will probably be running the company now

[Atheist]

I think the point about the spelling and other clues is that they don't want to be pestered by intelligent people, just idiots.

[jno]

oh yes, that's the part they call "green Spain", isn't it? Well, enjoy your stay.

[vulcan42]

sandyRoe, you're not far from the truth. This happened quite a few years ago, he ended up the youngest of the company directors.
