My mum's street in lockdown

[Vulture]

Diane, you must know by now that a bloke and his fart are never parted for long - of course he is!

[Malc]

Actually I always stand like that.


OK, the truth now - one of the team mothers asked at the last minute if we would pose for that photo. The ref had already blown to talk to the team captains and we were late to take the field.

That was my I'm-smiling-but-I-don't-want-to-be-here pose.

Yes, it's association football - eleven on the field and three subs. Oops, there I go again.

I am sincerely sorry that you always stand like that.

It's a great photo, Malc.

Thanks for clearing that up Malc, if you'll excuse the pun, did they win?

Malc, not meaning to get too personal here - but in the photo are you farting?

You owe me a cup of coffee at least for that, Diane, possibly a new keyboard!

I was thinking it was a nasty stoop, the legacy of having been schooled on a German U-boat.

It was literally the second I moved after I thought the photo was taken. In animation we called it the 'antic' (anticipation) prior to a broad movement like a jump. I was offski, or pre-offski, girding my loins as it were. Not a fart, more of a loin-girding.

No, Bog, we lost 2-1. The guy on the far left is Cobby, he had severe food poisoning. In the second half he chucked up like a fire hose about four times in quick succession. He's also one of our better players. Once he was off we had no midfield worth talking about.

Confession time: How many people clicked back to page 2 to see the picture of the kid who upchucked?

Not yet, but I'm on my way.

I have mine set to something like 25 posts a page, so I just had to scroll up a wee bit. :-)
