Wait, you said chainSSS. OK. You and Eric got your neck/wrist/ankle/belly/whatever chains entangled... ah... er.... oh yeah, because you had had a few pints too many at the Jug and were lending each other physical support. Alas, the conjugation proved too encumbersume and balance was lost, tumbling you both to the muddy roil ( I like "muddy roil" ). How many guesses do we get ? I figure I am entitled to at least one more because you didn't set any rules yet. |

Since this saved the world, of course in the usual understatement fashion, it was said they were public spirited. I hear a tip jar was passed along the chain as well and Max now has all the equipement he can think of for the foreseeable future.

05 Apr 01 - 11:49 AM (#433774) Subject: RE: Prize if you can guess what happened to From: GUEST,Patrish Eric And I left the Jug dropped Jason off and proceeded towards the motorway. Completely out of the blue, there were two horses in the middle of the road. They looked liked gypsy horses the one you see staked in fields. Eric brought the car to a halt; I rang the police to tell them (a real hazard if a car came along driving fast) so we sat with flashing lights to warn other motorists. The horses came fairly close to the car, and as I said earlier one was a girl and one was a boy……………….. and they started doing what comes naturally. I looked elsewhere, but Eric in his elegant fashioned said something like "They are having shag" (screw) It was difficult to hold much of a conversation after that!! Eric rang the police again, as about 30 mins had gone by They moved about a bit had another shag and then wandered off towards the railway line. Although were quite big beasts, we thought we had better make an attempt to catch them in case they caused an accident on the line, so intrepid adventurers (me and eric) went after the huge beasts. They were dragging their chains behind them -it could have been something out of a ghost story – apart from the shagging. I managed to get hold of one of the chains and using every bit of strength I owned – brought the giant beast to a standstill. I could feel his hot breath on my cheek (get away eric I said) Then the police arrived and couldn't do knots so Eric tied them up on some security fencing by some nice grass. We were thanked and went home a bit muddier, but enriched for the experience. Patrish x |

The shooting started in our war for Indeendence when a Boston Silversmith named Paul Revere rode his horse through a few Massachusetts hamlets Yelling, "To Arms, To Arms, The BRitish are coming." There's more to this story but that's enough to set the stage. And, Here's what happened to you lot. Two guys wearing "burnoos'" chained together and riding a camel, who had been trained to stop on Red Lighs nd go on Green, came charging down Tottenham Court Road yelling, "TO ARMS, TO ARMS, THE YIDDISH ARE COMING" They arrived at the traffic light, in front of which you were standing, when the light turned red. The dutiful camel came to a screechjing halt., You yelled out, "Look at the two Assholes on the Camel."

A fellow Air Traffic Controller at RAF Lakenheath, a guy named "Brown" Who was on my shift, lived in Ely and had to drive through the 'Fenns" to get to work. One night he came on duty a half hour late./ He'd never been late before. His explanation was that Harewood,"The Wake" rode his horse across the road in front of him. He was also leading another horse by a chain. They came to a red light Harewood smiled, doffed his visor. so Brown started to drive through the intersection, when the light turned green. Hey Kendall, I find that the word, Brevity is not in my data base, so once I get started it's like the light just turned green. |
