It's your comment that makes no sense dear. "it's only right that is deemed the higher risk and charged accordingly" that's just flat out jargon, do you charge less for "higher risk" or more?

edit: no offence but needing some form of legal degree to read the bits and bobs thread really rather frigging sucks and when something turns into a conversation about important stuff in here then imo that is what the new thread button is for.

wow.

You honestly couldn't tell that it was a joke post?

lasermink · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 1883

To be honest, it wasn't that clear. There are certainly a couple of loons hanging out here who could have posted something similar in complete seriousness.

Internet ironing and all that...

I don't speak legal and can't drive so can't tell if it's a joke or srs post :shrug:

I'm sure I could make some dog breeding puns that would be exactly as understandable.

edit: actually I don't know any jokes off hand so puns or quips would be more appropriate although I'm sure there is something in the KC registration name thing.

Fair enough, i'll make sure I write THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS POST in big capitals in future

p.s. THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS POST

Went to Skipton this evening, and to a pub called "The Woolly Sheep". Timothy Taylor were having a 'meet the people that make beer' do. So MrsA and I sampled very generous half pints of most of their ales for free, then took advantage of "Buy two steaks and get a bottle of wine for free" deal. it was a most pro prelude to my birthday. The price of my being honest is now £22.20 for the times I've bought rail tickets and they've not been checked. BUt, better to be cash down but honest than cash up and not.

A most interesting thing, that.

I was talking to a friend of mine whose aunt owned a racehorse. About three times a year, she'd call him up and tell him to place a bet as "It's my turn to win". It always did on those occasions.

Heh.
It's slightly less obvious than with dogs, where it's their turn to be fed just before the race etc etc.

I don't wish to speak about my experience at the dog track. Kern and MrsA won lots. I did not. At all.

Yes, be sure let us know what the country folk of Cheshire think about dangerous driving penalties.

We didn't discuss it. I was mostly making appointments or just trying to find the remote houses and farms on my list, today. The only dangerous bit was avoiding the pheasants that seemed to be wandering around all the quietest roads.

My sister-in-law got that game for her birthday and it's bloody impossible. You spend ages setting up the pieces then it's impossible to knock them over, making it a never ending game!

Happy birthday, make sure you treat yourself to something rustic with bits floating in it.

These MrsA references are starting to test the boundaries of taste and decency.

Ooh! I saw an ad on TV last night that promised bigger and better toys in the new Kinder Surprises. That's... certainly bigger.

Unrelatedly, I think Joans has been spiking my wine. :-/

I think it's quantity, rather than quality.

He's probably told you it's for something nonsensical, like yoghurt or something...

Thank you for the kind wishes. Kern came up and we went to the pub for a bit, then came back, and went for a meal. It was good.

Based on Serenity, The Train Job, Bushwhacked and Shindig.. it's not bad at all. Certainly shows the difference of having likeable characters, which means I'm more likely to get through the whole season, rather than giving up something like Dexter.
