From: DonD So the fire flickered out after 10 posts on Guest Keith Dance's previous effort (and not one of the 109 others was his) and here he is again pumping his bellows on another incendiary ember. When I was akid after a 'mickey roast' in the park, all the guys would gather around in a ring and piss the fire out. Anyone ready to join me in a circle? |

From: Bert Yes, but not quite as bad as Americans 'cos if the British travel more that a hundred miles or so they'll like as not end up in another country. So they tend to be just a little more aware that they are not the only people on earth. *GRIN* |

From: McGrath of Harlow Presumably when a fish gets shot in a barrel this involves some degree of harm to the fish as well as satisfaction to the shooter. The analogy seems a little far-fetched. More akin to feeding the ducks really. |
