OK, Dawn; you asked for it! You asked for proof of my daftness. Can I proudly say that I was the winner of the "Muppet of the month" award three months running, in my local, 70-strong CB Club? (Ah, those were the days!) The award consisted of a giant green (stuffed) frog....I still have it, so who needs a teddy bear? I want you to picture the scene. In the dim and distant past before mobile phones, there I was, walking along, long cane in one hand, CB walkie-talkie in the other. Now, one of the best places to get a signal was the local graveyard, which looks out over the hills toward the south and Galloway. So I plugged my external mike into my CB, put on the rubber duck - a kind of flexible Ariel which stopped you poking your eye out with the set's own Ariel - and started talking. I'd propped the set against a convenient headstone, and was enjoying a modulation with a breaker on the mobile channel (sorry, CB talk) After about ten minutes, two shapes materialised in front of me....after a few seconds trying to see what they were, they happened to be two old dears. As I was the person talking at the time, they must've thought I was trying to get comfort from talking to a departed loved one. I un keyed the mike. The person at the other end of the conversation let out a laugh - I'd been sharing a joke. Dawn, I'm telling you: those old woman took off in the opposite direction, probably beating the land speed record in the process! Curiously enough, they never seemed to speak to me again. I wonder why? How's that for starters? And there's more! -----Original Message----- From: Dawn Watson - Email Address: dawnyhen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 17/06/2012 15:17 Sent To: Guide Chat - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] Is there any body there James you said you won't all there , so does this mean your a bungalow not a house, therefore you have nothing upstairs. may I have proof that you are the daftest on the chat line .can we have evidence of this certificate love from Dawn ----- No virus found in this message.
