Little things in life that make you smile

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

I suspect she'd have said "Punt", if she'd been listening to me watching us against the coke-producers.

Good call, actually. Rather fancy some duck confit as it goes. With salad, of course.

He state of the lawn his year. In rude health, definitely looks better since I switched to a push mower. Lawn feed and plenty of over-seeding has done wonders.

Cue hosepipe bans, which I shall ignore.

Watching an old Deputy Dawg cartoon on youtube where there’s a scene with someone firing an old rifle which is firing bullets quicker than a machine gun. One of the comments went like this …

“Why is that rifle firing so many bullets?”

To which someone has replied

“How come a dog can talk, wear clothes and act as a sheriff's deputy?”

Made me giggle like a loon for a while anyway.
