    Look out young'uns, the prostate exam comes to us all!

    And one of the funniest meetings I've had was having a camera inserted for waterworks side inspection, suppose to relax the situation.

    Whick reminds me.... went to the doctors from my prostate examination. Asked the doctor where he wanted me to put my clothes.... "next to mine on the floor" wasn't the answer I was expecting........

    Modern Buskers.

    Why do they need a flippin' amplifier?

    Went into big town this afternoon, 3 streets away you could hear some geezer murdering a cover version with bum notes, even drowned out his own singing with the ear splitting volume. Same in the middle of Leeds last few times I've been.
    Same a few months ago at Lytham St Anne last year, some bleached blonde 40 going on 17 bloke half singing a song to a karaoke style over amplified distorted backing tape thinking he was George Michael, and 'in with the ladies' as he missed the words, winked, pointed and said "c'mon" as anybody female walked within 50ft of him, (un)luckily the warning warble carried for about half a mile due to the flat promenade.
    Grrr!! Just use an acoustic instrument and show talent.
    Rant over.

    The number of scammers who approach you in the street. I need some change for parking, to get the train or ask for a strange mount like £1.15. Been approached so many times and sometimes by the same person! What is spare change? Because I haven't used it doesn't mean it's spare!

    At cinema, watching Batman.
    Organ at front, plus they have an intermission with a lady with ice cream tray. Excellent. Let's hope its the Adam West one.

    That's not me and Mrs Dodgy by the way.

    It's early 20th century, the Rex in Elland, loads of history, apparently when was first built the movie was projected straight onto the wall.
    2 tickets, 2 ice creams and 4 cups of tea (in China mugs ) was £19.
    This Saturday is a laurel and Hardy night, with organist and films.

    Speaking of matters in that general area, I have recently underwent Rubber Band Ligation (RBL) for my Jeremy Kyle's. Granted it may be a hell of a lot less painful than surgery but the sense of violation cannot be underestimated. For my first round of RBL it was like 'rent a crowd' - 3 trainee doctors, a nurse and a trainee nurse, my actual doctor and an Emergency Consultant who just happened to be in the 'vicinity'.

    I never thought looking up my rear exhaust would be so fascinating for so many....

    seeing how many reality TV shows there are, seems watching @$$holes is very popular.

    Remember mighty white, it had wheatgerm or something in it, supposed to be healthy, but it was the eighties so probably wasn't.

    That is an absolute fact but that's a different type of a-hole in fairness.
