Full Sandwich Short Of Picnic Now

[albaqwerty]

ho-hum. I blame the heat.

The score came up about a golfer, and it said PAR, asked Mr Alba where Par is, used to abbreviations, ENG for England and so on, as soon as it left my lips, I did tell him I never said it out loud.
He didn't believe me as he wiped the tears from his face.

[EcclesCake]

I'll take a look and see if there are any players from Paraguay to help you save face........

[Tilly2]

Yesterday, alba I remarked to my OH that the advertising board they have standing on the cricket pitch at Lords, must get in the players' way.

He keeps bringing it up!

[flump1]

Oh Alba, that is a beauty. It is the kind of thing I would say .

[albaqwerty]

lol, Eccles, thank you x

Dare I tell you about my time as a stamp-collector when I was 6 and looking for the country of TOPAY?
(pronounced toe-pay) I was 6!!!!

[albaqwerty]

Tilly, I agree with you, your OH is wrong :-)

Flump. it's nice to know we're not alone :-)

[Psybbo]

I'm really tempted to say 'par for the course' but, of course, I wouldn't do that

[EcclesCake]

I'm always happy to help another hapless fool......

Talking of hapless fools.......

When I was learning to read there was a story involving Sand Witches, what are they I wondered? I must have got the word right as the teacher never picked me up on my pronunciation. But what are they......old ugly women with hooked noses and warts wearing pointy hats and long cloaks in a sort of light beige colour............no they are sandwiches!

I might have been OK at reading but clearly comprehension took a while to catch up :-(

[albaqwerty]

lol, glad you resisted Sibs xxx

Have you a flutter on the golf?
Mr Alba and his dad have done 5
(I know that could be phrased better!)

[albaqwerty]

ooh, Eccles, it was the word compromise which (witch) stymied me.


I said it as come promise.

[emmie]

someone i know often mixes up the words antidote with anecdote, so the doctor gave the patient an anecdote, whilst the comedian gave the audience the antidote, ta da..

[emmie]

Par (score), a predetermined number of strokes required to complete a hole

you could have pa he's making eyes at me
par for the course,
parvenu
par st it

[albaqwerty]

ooh Em, that reminds me of the overdue, heavily pregnant lady whose MIL told her neighbour that the doctor was going to seduce her on Monday.

[emmie]

i have heard some wonderful ones over the years, malapropisms,
spoonerisms and the like.

[EcclesCake]

That could have worked though, isn't there something in semen that brings the bay on.

Perhaps it would be better if the Husband did the seducing though.......

[albaqwerty]

I've often wondered if they only work (malaprops, spoonerisms, typos etc) in the English language.
I love the language, I know it's a living thing and to see it slaughtered at times by text speak saddens me.

[emmie]

have a laugh
