Athena, my Dad used to quote the same one!

My son inherited my Dad's 'skill' there lol

Different version of Meriweather poem.

When I lived in Blackpool they always used to say.

Wherever you are wherever you be
You should let your wind go free,
Whether it be in Church or in Chapel
Let em Rattle.

Well, Mac, it's the early hours of the morning and I have only just come back to this thread and read your recent postings. I'm still laughing over your story about the chicken innards. However, I was always told that the rhyme you quoted had been carved on a gravestone and went:

'Wherever you are,
Wherever you be,
Always let your wind go free,
For keeping it in was the death of me.'

Is this a lesson for those of us who try to let rip a 'silent one' with it's 'baffies on', as the Scots would say?,

I look forward to receiving your illustrious wisdom on this very serious matter.

Mac, don't even think about it?

I bet your wife will get rid of things like that now lol

Lizx

p.s. so glad you are feeling better and lighter lol

I have not laughed so much in ages. Thank you Mac and bless you I am so glad you feel more comfortable!

Edit - I hope you have warned the coast guard!

Good for him :-)))

I mentioned parents cos they should know better!

Su M, This was not his parents but his sister who was two years older than him, and really liked to frighten him, His mother did not know anything about it, until I told her. Needless to say the sister got a good telling off.
He got his own back later on by scribbling all over her favourite doll with indelible pencil.

How terribly posh...lol I would have loved to have seen the teacher's face.

Mo,

How awful to do that to a child. I know someone who threatens their children with 'the gypsies will come and take you away', the working minds of some parents beggars belief.

Good on you Mac Do you think this had anything to do with the Earthquake in Italy?

Joking apart about the advert, years ago when I lived in Essex the boy next door always wanted to use our loo, he was 3 or 4, When one day my fil was there and asked why, Would appear his older sister had said there were witches in their loft, and the means of gettng in their loft was in their bathroom, she had said one would come out and grab him. Hence the fright of going up there, and wanting to come and use ours.

My son's teacher's jaw dropped when he put his hands up and said 'Please Miss may I go and defecate? ' Mind you this was over 30 years ago and he was just showing off a new word he had learned..., nowadays they would send him for counselling....lol BC XX

Ever wish you hadn't started something....roflmao

Mac, enough dear!!!!!

xx

I wondered what the BANG!! was Mac.

Mac, dear, I,m so pleased for you, but really, darling, this all far too much information.

I have been left with images in my mind that are going to last me a life-time.

MAC.... CONGRATULATIONS!!



I do know the ad we are all talking about... I could not place it.

I was talking about it to my OH and he told me... it is the one I have been MOANING ABOUT since it started.

You are right, it is disgusting.
What a way to teach our children to behave.
And before we all disagree, think of an advert YOUR child has copied.
Mine have copied adverts as far back as the idiot woman in the early 60's who used to wash her face with "the creamy foam' and washed only her forehead, cheeks and chin!!
A simple little one to start with.
You must have many,many more... some nasty one ?

I find that looking at our latest Council Tax bill does the trick.

So pleased for you Mac, hope you stay regular now lol


Lizx

.......also when my MiL says she has had a good clear out, I thought she meant she had been tidying up........but no........far too much information.....

sally
