The Random Thoughts Thread

Mine certainly aren't. At least not by me.

Which opens another kettle of theological worms.

I asked my brother after I'd figured it out and he confirmed my conclusion.

RIP, anonymous pigeon.

Ah, now we come to whether or not your brother was doing what brothers do best - upsetting his little sister for the Hell of it

(No, I'm not belittling the whole thing, which started from a brave act, a beautiful thought and a thoughtful child)

Not really a thought but a statement..... HAPPY SAINT DAVID'S DAY (patron saint of Wales) Children in Wales get to dress up, girls are dressed up as Welsh Ladies while young boys wear rugby shirts, although when i was in school we lads dressed up as knights, plastic swords, sheilds, helmets and a leek! I blame the pc brigade!!!

[Daisy-Boo]

That is a possibility too. He loved teasing me.

[Winters_Sorrow]

Ah, happy memories of psychologically torturing my sister by telling her that the binmen would come and take her away if she was naughty...

Yes I was a horrible brother - she loves me anyway

Thanks, nj.



And a happy St David's Day to you too.

And she married that binman in the end, didn't she, WS?

HAPPY ST DAVID'S DAY to all our Welsh Randomers

(St Patrick was Welsh, y'know )

[Winters_Sorrow]

Nope, she still has an irrational dislike of them. When I do a job, I do it properly

[Daisy-Boo]

Happy St. David's Day!

(I'm now stuck with the mental image of thousands of kids running around brandishing leeks. I have leeks in my fridge. Leeks...mmm.)

LOL (again )

[Ursa major]

Has she ever been wheelie afraid of them, WS...?

[Winters_Sorrow]

She says not, Ursa but I think that's garbage.
