Well, it's been 10 years ago to the day since my mate came out of the room with tears streaming down his face, saying "It's a boy, it's a boy ".
We never did go back to Thailand. ?
My mate has just been sacked from the Samaritans. A bloke rang up and said " I'm depressed and I'm laying across the railway track waiting for a train so I can end it all"
Apparently, " Remain calm and stay on the line " was not the correct reply. ?
Police Officer "Madam, we've brought your husband home from the pub because he's so drunk he can't stand up"
Wife "No sh't. Where's his wheelchair? "
( Dedicated to you Legless my friend) ?????.

Talking of legless how do we recognise him in the Tbi prior to the villa game. I ask because what happens if there’s more than one wheelchair user in there. I wouldn’t think it would be right to ask a total stranger if they were legless, you’re likely to get a smack in the mouth. Any ideas.

Good question and point Vale. I know what he looks like but if I didn't I’d be opening with “ How’s the wheelchair rugby going mate “. If he’s still talking about it an hour later it’s Legless ( only joking mate)! ?.

Besides which he’ll be the most handsome man in the room with his rugged film star good looks ( that’ll be a tenner please Legless) ! ?.

Thanks Stokey, I'm touched!
Points to note at the TBI on the 14th:
1. I'll be the most handsome guy in the pub.
2. I'll be in a wheelchair, being pushed by the second most handsome guy in the pub (my son).
3. I have a West Country accent.
4. I'll be wearing metal legs.
I hope this helps in the i'd process!

Make sure you have spare nuts and bolts and a adjustable spanner with you legless I had to fix a blokes metal leg the other week at Butlins he was dancing and lost a bolt out of it, ? I had to find a bolt and fix it for him he was over the moon that I fixed it and could go dancing again at night time.

And a can of WD40 as well Skegs. I wouldn't want to turn into 'the tin man' if it's raining on the day.

Try the WD40 meth shots in there legless, class ?.

Sounds dreamy Bowie! Well-lubricated in every sense.

I've been thinking about the 14th again in the hope that I'll be meeting with some of you before/ after the game at the TBI.
I've decided that I'll be wearing a 3/ 4 length dark coat and shorts (much more practical than jeans) with metal legs on show. I'll ditch the wheelchair around the entrance and walk to the bar to, hopefully, get a round in for us all. This should make me a bit more 'obvious' as well as getting me out of that wheelchair that I hate so much for a while.
Can't wait!

It'll be good to see some of you blind union flag wavers on the 14th.
