Title: Application for Membership
Post by: The Peepmaster on February 26, 2011, 07:19:23 PM: The site received this email today:

I have been a devoted fan of Beau et al since I served in Oman where our hero was featured in the Oman Daily Observer.

My consulting Psychiatrist believes that, following my recent lobotomy, renewed exposure to Beau could put my condition into perspective for the Review Board and may, possibly, lead eventually to my being granted a provisional release into the community on the grounds that there are far worse cases out there already.

Providing I don't have to spend much of my pocket money and you promise not to tell my mother, I would like to propose and second myself for Lifetime honorary membership of your learned society, or whatever it is.

Per ardua ad nauseum

Lowrents of Arabia and Wigan
(Formerly Adjutant Fort Soixante-Neuf)

I forwarded it to the secretary, Mince, but I haven't heard whether the applicant has been accepted yet.

I don't think he's been barred.

Post by: The Peepmaster on February 27, 2011, 02:56:47 PM: I bet penguins are dead easy to lasso, come to think about it.

Post by: Malc on February 27, 2011, 09:17:24 PM: Lasso his own penguin? Is that the same as bashing his own bishop?
I didn't have to do that when I joined, so am I a member?

They are easy to pick up, but smell of fish. Well, the one in the Falklands did anyway.

Can you let the newby in please. That way I'm not the newby anymore.
