Feeling slightly grumpy this morning

I have to write a new post for my blog. I have nothing to say, so no change there. Maybe I could write a list of ten things beginning with B that I enjoy shoving up my arse. God, where shall I start!

  1. Go on, I'm fascinated. You can't leave me hanging...

  2. Bunuel? Barabajagal? Bactrian camel?

  3. Well, Tom, you can shove Big Brother up your arse. Does that count as one or two?
    And thank you for taking responsibility for publishing today's literary article. I can now concentrate on mindless filth.

  4. Bhutan? Baba ganoush? Baklava? Brolly?

  5. Thank you all for your suggestions. I will be performing the insertions on the Discovery channel later today. I am considering using the brolly as a kind of ramming aid - I am envisaging some difficulties with the bacon butty there though.

  6. A balistarius, if he wasn't before hand he would be during and probably afterwards!

    Cheer up - England playing tomorrow and we're bound to win!

    aren't we???

  7. I'm sorry to be so negative about our national team but we aren't very good are we. I've just watched Germany against Sweden. Sweden made us look ordinary but Germany looked really exciting (germany, exciting, is that an oxymoron). I can't really remember us ever being exciting. Occasionally when Gazza was on the field, and the first five minutes of Rooney the other day.
    Do you know, if we win the world cup playing this dull dour stuff, it will be a travesty and not what I think football should be all about. It's like Arsenal winning the league under George Graham, or the England rugby team when the backs never used to get the ball, or Geoff Boycott as a batsman. Why are we so bloody boring.
    See I am grumpy today!

  8. Tom, things to put up your arse that begin with a B?

    Bagels? Balogna? Bratwurst?

    Hmm. I must be hungry.

    Hope you're feeling a bit lighter in the mood now, though I always did like the somber, brooding types.

  9. A bas les Anglais. Allez l'Argentine!

  10. Pammy, there is so much about you that is perfect. However I do need one or two points clarifying before I make a total commitment. Do you have a substantial private income? Secondly, the gorgeous way you look over your glasses, well, is that a one-off for the photo or do you do it all the time. Thirdly, are you coming to terms ok with my potty mouth - I'm too old to change now on that front. And then of course there are my hairy ears - do you think you will always be excited by them or will that fade over time.

  11. I have to concede you are right about us but only in so far as up to this moment in time – the future is a different country and I am fully expecting us to look like Mexico without the losing bit . . . ever the optimist provided the prozac/alcolhol/chocolate/ remains at a constant level and supply – incidently, enjoyed the Oz/Croatia debacle especially our Mr Poll – surely that cheered you up?

  12. So you're only after me for my money?

    I knew it couldn't last.

  13. as Sally said to Harry
    YES YES YES YES YES YES
    told yer!
    maybe not brilliant but Rooney was and leave Becks alone - he scored even if the rest of his performance was crap!

    The Netherlands or Portugal eh???

  14. Please tell me your smiling?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Ziggi, I'm smiling but not convinced. See, what worries me is what if we play this bad all the way and win the world cup. Would you be happy with that. I'd hate it. I just have this idea that football should be entertaining and fun like the Argentine/Mexico game yesterday - now that's football at it's best. I'd be proud to be a Mexican with a performance like that even though they lost.

  16. It's only a flipping game! I don't know what all the fuss is about. It's a game, not a performance of the Bolshoi. Try sticking them up your jacksy.

  17. I'm just glad that ITV had the good taste and sense of decorum to show David Beckham throwing up, after the BBC had declined to do so earlier. I bet the ITV team felt triumphant about that.

  18. Now then Cherrypie, you are deliberately trying to wind me up and you know that is against the rules.
    Betty - I was trying to work out what he'd eaten. Do you think it was runny porridge.

  19. If this post was on Martha's blog, it would have started up the music...

    As usual, I'm out of the football discussion because of basic ignorance and disinterest. I'm only reading the Tom/Pammy exchanges and the list of "B" things that Tom will stick in his heiny. I have no suggestions for that, sorry.

  20. Carmy, have I got to keep this charade of a relationship up with Pammy just to keep you on board. I'm not sure I've got the stamina, and now she's got the hump because she thinks I'm only in it for her money.

    ReplyDelete
  21. That hurts, Tom darling. Calling our relatinoship a charade is akin to calling President Bush a lawfully elected official.....I mean it's just...

    Wait a minute.

    I'll get back to you on that one.

  22. relatinoship: Hispanic for "relationship"

    ReplyDelete
  23. Carmy, a relatinoship is exactly what me and Pammy have going here. We have our ups and downs, but hey, that's life isn't it. When it's good though, it's really good and I love her desperately, but boy, she gets the hump real easy. I'm not so sure I can live up to her impossibly high expectations.

  24. you and your commenting blog buddies are really funny...for such a short post, you got a lot of mileage!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Short post!
    So, the rumour has reached Canada.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Kyah and all our Canadian friends, Take it from me, and I don't mean from the rear here, a short post is no handicap in this world, not that I would know from my own experience.

  27. Betty, yes exactly what I was thinking. Total lack of decorum.

  28. Thank goodness, we can always rely on Vicus to change the subject from footie to fornication so superbly subtly.
