Rejected your advances, eh?

I’ve not done owt but I shit myself 10 much because being sent down for a crime I didn’t do is one of my top fears.

Amanda Knox lost the best years of her life to this shit and now it’s happening to me too.

At least she managed to shit in the toilet first.

Yeah that’d be really nice

@anon5266188 would you like it if you, me and Joke went on a short holiday somewhere, possibly involving an unusual mode of transport such as a barge?

#36

I would hate to be on a barge

#37

What about a nice city break?

#38

Yeah, much better (as long as there are no bodies of water in the city)

I’ll ring the travel agents first thing and ask for three tickets for a nice weekend in the desert.

I’d be delighted if Roy Orbison was playing at my house.

Had a knock on the door on Sunday during the day, right, and I went to answer it and there was a whole family there with big grins on their faces, which soon became faces of confusion because they had gone to the wrong address

Tony, I’m not sure about how you’re using ‘pop-in’ here.

#44

Theo…

#45

“a pop-in”, “the pop-in”?

Nah

#46

Fair.

Wouldn’t be a pop-in if there was no “in”, would it?

A speculative visit to check would be better called a pop-round.

#47

No. The more usual way of writing this would be:

…and one of my sisters friends popped in whilst my sister and bro-in-law were out in the evening…and the friend STILL CAME IN!

I’ve just realised what’s going on here.

Thought the visit was a pre-arranged thing to make sure that Ant was OK and cool with the babysitting duties.

But it seems like it’s pals calling round to visit these parent people out of the blue, but barging in anyway, despite the parent people being out. Which is weirdly imposing wrong 'un behaviour, and what to call it is the least weird thing going on.

Well it’s a given that it’s batshit. I enjoyed the anecdote just not his language use which is all I was objecting to.

I would also object to anyone saying they’d do a ‘pop-in’ like it’s a drive-by assassination.
