I recall Spider Stacey banging a tin tray on his head to great effect in the early days of the Pogues...

Ferrets in your trousers used to be entertainment in the good old days, anyone remember 'Opportunity knocks' a man won for banging himself on his head with a tray.

Maybe not rattle can delivered car paints but the OEM stuff should be at least as good as yacht paint, cars can be expected to see as much UV as boats and aren't routinely repainted every few years.

If you’re at Halfords you can pick up some WD40 for your knees, 

the effectiveness of this cure isn’t approved of by WD40

Isn't that like putting an angry weasel down your trousers!

Wouldn’t have a reference for that... I live south of the midlands

Weasels are for posh folk, a true Northern has a couple of ferrets in his long johns.

Haha...can't say I've noticed...but boats from Argos...there's a thought, a nautical sort of name and pick up the same day. Could be the answer to all our woes! Wonder if they do Merlin Rockets....


Argos do sell the Argo (Topper)
Avon ladies get very confused when you ask for a Scow
There is a hire care car company that will also lend you an Enterprise 
Sadly Comet when bust
You can get a dinghy from a Northern frozen food chain, right beside the chicken Bytes 
My GP looks 14 but sailing isn’t prescribed on the NHS
Don’t go on Boxing Day but Ikea do plenty of Mirrors and plenty of Lighting (368 different lamps I believe)
Waitrose have plenty of Albacore tuna in isle B14, but you will need to go to Tesco to get a four pack of Kestrel, it is selling fast so you will need to be up with the Larks.

To all members of the psychic safiling association, Boxing day racing is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

Next year they will do better with their 20 20 vision
