Don't make out you don't know what I'm talking about.

Mincey, I'm a cartoonist. I've been using pictorial puns for over quarter of a century, and photographic ones since the Dawn Of Google. You going to take the credit for inventing the wheel by virtue of being the first kid in your street to own a bike? ..0
I apologise, in advance.

So how come you never used them on this forum until I did? Then everyone jumped on the bandwagon.

Dig deep, Mincey - I think you may find in some of my early posts that I did. But it's okay - I never thought to take credit for inspiring you to do it, since it's certainly not my original idea to use them.
I apologise, in advance.

You all must think it very rude of me not to acknowledge your good wishes.
I hereby acknowledge and indeed thank you for aforesaid GWs.
The reason for my tardiness is that I can't always get on a computer at my library because of an influx of migrant workers emailing home.
Once more, thank you.

Oh, Elizabeth, for the life of me I can't remember your National Insurance Number. Sorry.

Oh, another thing: for the past wee while when I click on "Show unread posts since last visit" I've been getting nothing, despite it being clear from the forum that posts have been made. Ostracism is nothing new to me, but anyone know why?

Every mishap on this forum has been blamed on Mince: this must be another blott we can lay at his door!

You invented puns?

Spot on, Joan. Unlucky, Vult - so close, but no cigar. Peepsie, your version has become my new birthday salutation - it's brilliant!

Not so much 'unlucky' as 'dim'. I'm useless at this kind of thing!!   :(

It might help if you aren't using the toilet at the same time you are visiting the forum.


Happy Birthday, Fyodor!

Vulch, don't discredit yourself  - I wouldn't have got it if it wasn't for you.  It was the "urns" that did it.

I know that I didn't have a clue and not only that I can't remember what we were talking about.
People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad
