Are there any things that you've had for ages but only used recently...?

Tin of baked beans turned up the other day with an expiry date of Sept 2006....

How did it know your address boxy?

[boxtops]

My delivery man is very wise ttfn. He must be if he's as good as the postman, who delivered a letter with my name on, and the town name, to me a while back (either that or I'm more famous than I think I am!)

[ttfn]

Cooer mrs. I didn't realise you were such a v.i.p. I touch my forelock as I type (;-))

[boxtops]

Ta ttfn, the bunting outside the house is a dead giveaway - and I did all that for the PLEBS party and Mrs B seems to have gorn off and left us.

[ttfn]

All those poor peacocks and starlings that went by the way boxy! Typical politican I say. How come I have had only one set of bumph through my letter box and no canvassers? Not that I am complaining mind you.

I was bought a round metal thing that spirals out when held from centre....meant for kitchen use - what is it & how's it used?

[boxtops]

You lucky thing, we are wading in what is loosely called "literature". Our recycling bin is nearly full!

[ttfn]

Tambo how do you know it is for kitchen use please?!

[boxtops]

Sounds like a whip to me!

[tamborine]

'cause I've seen them in kitchen section of shops.....the assistants dont know what they're for either :)

[tamborine]
