there was atime when I called a spade a spade

[4GS]

then I tripped over the one in my garden "!@#$$%^&*()"

You should of heard what I called the broom I stepped on a few years ago, very comedy strip style, but it did land me in hospital!!

according to doctor phil, you now have to call a spade "a damn shovel"

[4GS]

The PC brigade now say we have to call it an:


'Horticultural soil moving, implement'

You couldn't make it up

You really do need to read Regulation No 43 of the *Garden Implements and Safety Implications thereon* of the Health & Safety at Home Act, 2010..... coming to a garden near you in the next few years..... My understanding of this particular reg is that you should never leave a space or shovel where a humanoid can trip over it.... A fork should also ALWAYS be pushed down into the earth for at least 100mm *just in case*

Personally, I blame cats...
