Organic Salt

I kid you  not. She came home with this.

“I’ve bought organic salt”

“Not possible.”

“It says so on the packet!”

“Then someone is lying. Salt is a compound of Sodium and Chlorine, neither of which could be described as organic.”

“But it is made in France! From the sea!”

“You mean it is rock salt?”

“Yes. Organic.”

“You have SFB.”

“What is that?”

“An organic substance between your ears.”

“Really?”

“Yes – Shit For Brains!”

It didn’t go down well…

Online Pharmacy – Pure Gibberish

I am forever getting emails for Viagra and penis enlargement. Someone has clearly been spreading rumours (that’s all that gets spread these days…)

But here is a fantastic advert – love it…

1. It’s much cheaper. With money you spend usually, you can buy 2-3 times more pills.

2. It’s confidentially. Nobody knows what you bought Viagra or pills for penis enlargment. Shipments come in discreet unmarked packages.

3. You don’t have to leave home. Purchase will be quickly delivered right to your door.

4. Nobody will disturb you. Read instruction for each product while sitting at your computer and select what you need.”

I would be very impressed if anyone knows what this means.

Bankers…

I went to talk to my bank to transfer some money to Blighty.

“It’s much easier to do if you go online” said the helpful girl.

“Yes but I can’t log in, and I need to send some money to Blighty”

“Why can’t you log in?”

“I don’t know why – it just says ‘accounts not mapped yet’. Do you know what that means?”

“No. Call the support team and ask. Transferring money is so much easier online!”

“Yes I know but I can’t log in…”

She paused to think for a while as I had clearly stretched her customer service skills to the limit.

“Can I arrange to transfer some money from here, now?”

“Yes but I will need your IBAN number and your Swift code!”

“I have the IBAN number. If I give you that can you find out the Swift code?”

“No, you need to look it up online. It is actually much easier to do a transfer online because our system will find the Swift code for you!”

“But I can’t log in online…”

“Then I need the Swift code.”

“I don’t have it.”

“You should talk to our support guys, they will help you to get logged in. It’s easy to then transfer money online!”

I smiled and said ‘Thank you’.

I walked away wondering how we got so technologically advanced.

I have a gentle cock.

Marvellous title for a 15th Century poem/lyric.

I had no idea anyone would be so enamoured of a farmyard fowl.

I Have a Gentle Cock

I have a gentle cock,
Croweth me day;
He doth me rysyn early,
My matyins for to say.

I have a gentle cock,
Common he is of great;
His comb is of reed coral,
His tail is of jet.

I have a gentle cock,
Common he is of kind;
His comb is of red coral,
His tail is of inde.

His legges ben of azure,
So gentle and so small;
His spores are of silver quite,
Into the wortewale.

His eyen are of crystal,
Lokyn all in amber;
And every night he percheth him
In my lady’s chamber.

What is a Hanny?

“What’s a Hanny?” asked Daisy as she checked out this blog.

“Actually Fairyhanny is a Spoonerism,” I explained.

“Like a toast to the Queer Dean instead of the Dear  Queen.”

“I don’t get it?”

So I tried again.

“Would you like to show me your toolkits?”

“Are you a smart fella?”

I even got her reciting ‘I’m not a pheasant plucker I’m a pheasant pluckers mate’ quite a feat for a young lady in Chengdu. I have this image of a group of Chinese women shouting out “I’m not a pheasant plucker…”

She finally got it when I said ‘would you duck my sick?’

There was a pause.

“So Fairy Hanny is really Hairy Fanny?” asked Daisy.

“Yes!”

There was a longer pause.

“What’s a Fanny?”

Playing Poetry Games

Today I played a game with a girl in China. We wrote four words and then made poems. They are generally awful…. but included here for your entertainment.

Poems today

 

I like the colour of rose

my friend says she also does

so when we meet a rose colour dog

we bring him back to our house

 

I like the colour rose

and my dog has got no nose

My friend said just suppose

My house was made of toes

 

I have a hat with a very wide brim

It gives me some prestige

but I must abstain from telling him

I’m wary of wearing beige
