A little late but...

[Rob Baker]

...Happy New Year everyone.

I've been a bit poorly lately (I was in hospital most of December) but I'm on the mend now.

So, what've I missed?

[Jack]

In no particular order:

Roger punched some carol singers, Malc wanted to punch some egomaniacal football-type people, Diane didn't punch anyone that we know of, but she did institute a virtual gift-giving scheme over Christmas (spoiler: you got a shop).We learned that some people don't like film trilogies, and that most of our news years resolutions involve either photography or going to the toilet (but fortunately not both). Diane has since embarked on a stand-up comedy tour of Canada (1 venue only) and I think that just about brings you up to speed.

Happy New Year, and here's hoping you're back to 100% very soon.

Sorry to hear that you were in hospital for so long Mr. Baker - they should provide internet in this day and age, for it is as necessary as breakfast.

I took up photography a couple of months ago when I got my first "real" camera, I posted moose photos here around xmas. This month I'm onto squirrels. It keeps me sane whilst the snow is thigh deep.

[Roger Kettle]

Rob, sorry to hear about your illness and glad to hear you're on the mend. And I was complaining about a ten day flu....
Lovely photo, Diane. The snowflake on the squirrels's nose is just perfect and makes the picture.

[Sandy Buttcheeks]

Nice to have you back, Sir. Hope that you are now well and truly on the mend, and for the record, I don't mind film trilogies...I just dislike ONE film being split into three for money making purposes. So there.

 

PS...Is that a cocaine snorting squirrel?

[Diane CBPFC]

Thanks Roger, of course I arranged for that perfect snowflake  (you can tell by how bushy the tail is and how bright the eyes are that that particular squirrel is not on cocaine - may be on a little sugar high though from the xmas cookies).

What I don’t like about trilogies is when they come out with a boxed set say in April, and then come out with an extended boxed set just in time for xmas. That is like mugging your grandma or somebody else that likes you.

Welcome back, Rob. Hope you're on the mend.

You missed me apparently swearing twice. The same word, inoffensive in the UK, which apparently is as bad as naughty words, across the pond.

[Malc]

So it was like "fanny"? the other way round. An inverted "fanny" can cause a lot of problems.

Why would a "ynnaf" be troublesome?

That old depend on how you tackle it.

[The Peepmaster]

Why would a "ynnaf" be troublesome?   

You try saying that to a Welshman.

But at least he has wellies to assist him.

Wellies? What kind of "ynaff" are you expecting? 

[The Peepmaster]

I'm not sure James III actually had to audition for his role in becoming King.

What's a "ynaff"?
