Oh I’m Sorry … I Didn’t Realise Bananas Were Previously Only Supposed To Be Eaten In The Home. I Guess This Is Real Innovation In Action. Or Just A Sticker. A Stupid, Stupid Sticker …

What the hell is next?
Transportable biros?
Mobile smart phones?
Portable shoes?
Talking of ridiculous and mental, I will end this post by saying a very happy birthday to my brother from another mother, Paul.
He’s 44 today.
FOURTY FOUR!!!
I remember when we were 8 years old and worked out that we’d be 30 in the year 2000 and that seemed like a lifetime away.
Fortunately for him, he still acts as he did in 1978 so while the years are adding up, the maturity level remains exactly the same.
Happy birthday my lovely man, can’t wait to see you in July.

Surprised you didn’t say he was hung like a massive banana.
Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 6:37 amthe way campbell describes it, it’s a 4 year old boy holding a fucking massive orange.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:48 amThat’s because if memory serves me [which I wish it didn’t, but that is one of the prices I have to pay in life] … he is hung like a horse, not a banana.

Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 6:38 amfucking princess wimp.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:48 amSomehow this is all Baz’s fault.
Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 6:52 amSeems when you two are together you’re like the perfect double act. Not comedians, I’m talking murderers like Myra Hyndley and Ian Brady.
PS) that’s still more topical than 99% of your posts.
Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 6:40 amThanks. That means a lot to me. Ahem.
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 8:03 amIt’s not ridiculous. It’s a serving suggestion.
Comment by John June 16, 2014 @ 6:43 amFor fools.
Comment by Bazza June 16, 2014 @ 6:43 amsay shit like that again doddsy and ill have a fucking suggestion for you.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:49 amIt’s not a serving suggestion, it’s a consumption suggestion. Still pointless though.
Comment by Pete June 16, 2014 @ 7:07 amA serving suggestion? Like cornflakes say, “pour ice cold milk on these cornflakes and enjoy a tasty breakfast’ serving suggestion?
Or said another way, an excuse to say something no one either cares about or has known for decades.
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 8:04 amDid England’s performance screw John’s brain?
Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 8:57 amTheir marketing department slipped on one of their own banana skins with that idea. OK, that sounded much better in my head.
Comment by Bazza June 16, 2014 @ 6:43 amtime to throw yourself out of a tall building window. or in your fucking midget case, the ground floor.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:50 amGold.
Comment by DH June 16, 2014 @ 6:53 amSorry Baz, but that made me laugh.
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 8:04 amI’ll remember that in a few months when you want something from me.
Comment by Bazza June 16, 2014 @ 8:36 amI’m guessing you’re not in Cannes Rob.
Comment by Bazza June 16, 2014 @ 6:44 amif you said more funny shit like this youd go a long fucking way.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:50 amClashed with his holiday schedule.
Comment by John June 16, 2014 @ 7:26 amAmazingly, I haven’t been bad enough this year to be sent to Cannes … which I am entirely grateful for.
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 8:05 ampaul. wherever youre meeting campbell in july. go the opposite direction. now. happy fucking birthday.
Comment by andy@cynic June 16, 2014 @ 6:51 amHe will. He will.
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 8:05 amCompletely unrelated, is actually true that you have Forest Birkenstocks? It’s not is it, it can’t be.
Comment by Northern June 16, 2014 @ 4:23 pmActually it is … except they were made by my colleagues rather than from the Forest shop. That said, I received a package from the Forest shop this morning containing scarf, hat and socks from my colleagues … which would be lovely except it’s bloody coming into summer and I’d be out of my mind to wear them.
[And I know you’ll say I’d be out of my mind to wear them regardless of the weather, but that’s your issue, not mine]
Comment by Rob June 16, 2014 @ 5:59 pmI’m guessing Forest socks always stay down.
