A game you would have enjoyed.

thought you guys would enjoy hearing this one.

do you remember all of the 'counsel' about 'word whiskers' that was given during the theocrapttic misery drool?

my sister and i (about 13-14 at the time) had always laughed at the more consistent word whiskers in our hall.

Hi Lisa

This was a similar kind of thing, not quite as good as passing out Match-up cards, I must admit.

I hereby declare....

....the christmas season officially open!.

to explain: my wife's folks live in the neighbouring town to us, a distance of 10 miles or so.

the road which connects us is listed as an "a" class road, although, in truth, it's more like a country lane in places.. halfway along this road is a farm, and the farm has a sign hanging on its gate:.

....the Christmas Season Officially Open!

To explain: My wife's folks live in the neighbouring town to us, a distance of 10 miles or so. The road which connects us is listed as an "A" class road, although, in truth, it's more like a country lane in places.

Halfway along this road is a farm, and the farm has a sign hanging on its gate:

CHRISTMAS TREES FOR SALE. ALL SIZES.

The thing is this: that sign is ALWAYS there. All year, all through the summer, always. And for eleven months a year it's a complete lie.

But, for one glorious season it's true. And driving past it this morning, I noticed that they DID, in fact, have trees for sale.

So, I take that as the starting gun - it's nearly on us.

I better start panicking about presents NOW! Yikes!

Duncan,

HO! HO! HO! Mary Crease-Morse Everybody!

Embarrassing moments on stage

by freedom96 in

friends

as a kid growing up with an elder father, from time to time we would have parts on stage at the meeting or assembly.

my dad had a certain talk he must have delivered to a couple dozen different congregations, about families.

during the talk, he would have my sister and i cause a scene during the talk, in which we would ultimately run on stage argueing.

Duncan

Hello Freedom 96,

a year or two back, I posted a couple of memorable stage moments, in a thread started by Anglise.

One of these was me, the other one I posted about further down was a friend of mine.

I think/hope this link will work:

dantheman's soccer woes...and shunning

by DanTheMan in

jw
friends

been trying to involve myself in some different activities, now that i have some time on my hands, being de-towered and all.

on sundays i've been playing soccer in an over-30 recreational league in town.. during a game last sunday, i was going after a guy who had the ball.

he passed it to a guy who was behind me.

Duncan

Hi Dan

Sorry to hear about your woes, mate.

Shunning at work? I think it's bizarre, and certainly a matter to take up with your employer. What if she has some information or figures or something you need to do your job? What about if she takes an urgent message for you? What's she going to do, not pass it on? Depending on the circumstance, wilful failure to comunicate with co-workers could amount to a sackable offense, IMO.

As for the football - I occasionally referee games at weekends. I would certainly not have let you on the pitch wearing glasses. Don't do it again, for your sake - next time you might end up with glass in your eye.

Hope you get well soon though.

regards

Duncan.
