Ian Dury - cheerful


Morning Reg, meat and two veg? He done him with a ten-pound sledge

What's the difference between Ian Dury and an egg?

You can beat an egg.

Hello Brian. Wash and iron? Try it on. It's only nylon. Could've been watching Frankie Vaughn on the telly and giving herself a scratch. This is what we find, a sense of humour is required, among the bacon rind.

Do It Yourself. Cheering me up no end right now.


Hit me with your rhythm stick, it's nice to be a lunatic

Jeremy (rhyming slang - “he was right dirty old Jeremy”, referring to Jimmy Saville) is now running (ruining?) the NHS.

Can I suggest Gary Glitter (minister for children); The Dukes of Hazard (environment); Ned Kelly (law and order); Lord Sugar (anything).

Yes. They're all barking. In fact they're all Dagenham. Next there'll be a climate change denier on the climate change committee...oh. There you go then.


Luv a duck, we're as common as muck

It was the opening of a place I worked (hard) on yesterday. Wasn't invited. Didn't want the hoi polloi spoiling it for the great and good, did vey, eh? Got a sneak preview from the caterers though.


Also, it takes much longer to get up north...the slow way

The roads were clear all day today, apart from that bit of the M25 between J5 and J6. That was a slow (lucky to do 30 mph) crawl. Why? It's an orbital. Why does it slow down at that specific section? Why is the inside lane always the fastest-moving (there goes the secret)?


Pullin' strokes and takin' liberties

I had the misfortune to hear 'lord' Sugar on 'today in Parliament'. If Shakespeare loves the English language, and uses it to conjure magic, Sugar rapes it, inflicts some GBH, gives it a thorough kicking for good measure, and does it all in that health and safety clipboard back-of-the-throat voice.

Could someone, like, run him over, perhaps? A couple of times to make sure?

Shall I compare three to a dreary day in Dudley?
No. For thou art drearier than the most dreary thing imaginable
To the human mind
Which is what I'm equipped with.
