The Last Word

[djarumdudley]

7492 :p :

but yet not as worthwhile as this one.

[MrJan]

7494

[Donney]

Sorry but the Last Number belongs to another thread.

[MrJan]

Link?

[Donney]

No

[MrJan]

In that case:

7498 :p :

[NoahsGirl]

Now now children, I'll take the LW away whilst you all bicker like 5 year olds

[Donney]

5 is a number, not allowed in here!

[schmenke]

Why?

[MrJan]

That's a very valid question Schmenke.

[Rollo]

Is it because 5 is prime? Untouchable? Fibonacci?

Wherefore and why art thou?

[MrJan]

I should be in bed but I sort of didn't write an essay so I'm staying up and not doing that :D

[Rollo]

I'm watching traffic on the main road outside the office window and procrastinating... so that I don't have to drive in it.

[MrJan]

bla

[schmenke]

Expending your vocabulary there Miguel...?

[MrJan]

Wuh

[schmenke]

You been hanging around with Wade? :p :

[djarumdudley]

i've been hanging with the last word

[Donney]

The LW says hi!

[MrJan]

The last word says bye

[Donney]

This is looking more and more like a famous song....

[MrJan]

7514

[Donney]

Not that song.

[MrJan]

5--4--3--2--1....5-4-3-2-1

[Rollo]

Are you trying to remember the code for your luggage?

http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f268/yeahigotgas/skroob2.jpg

[MrJan]

What luggage?

[schmenke]

The LW does not need luggage as it permanently resides with me and has no intention of going anywhere soon.

[Donney]

It will need luggage since tomorrow it will be going to Madrid with me and on Tuesday to Portland. OR.

[schmenke]

Whatcha gonna be doing on this side of the pond Donney?

[MrJan]

It'll need luggage next Friday too as it'll be marshalling at the Goodwood FoS with me :D :D

[schmenke]

It'll need luggage next Friday too as it'll be marshalling at the Goodwood FoS with me :D :D

Cool. Can a marshall take pics? :erm:

[MrJan]

Cool. Can a marshall take pics? :erm:

We'll find out :D :D Even if I can't take the camera there might be a few sneaky shots on the phone :)

[schmenke]

Meh, we will be expecing full size high-resolution pics posted by Monday :hmph:






...And don't forget the grid girls :erm: :D

[MrJan]

All depends on how much I get to see, I'll be on the rally stage so fingers crossed get some decent time off to walk about. Even if I don't then it's still free tickets to see some of the world's most amazing rally cars :up:

[djarumdudley]

are there technical difficulties?

[Rollo]

It's time for the "Technical Difficulties" National Anthem. All stand as we salute the flag and sing:

http://www.achgohairithe.com/content/2007/02/testcard.jpg

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooo.

[MrJan]

Hmmmmm

[schmenke]

Well, that's the most interesting thing I've seen in a while :mark:

[MrJan]

That's what you get from living in Canada :D

[djarumdudley]

where was the patch of white snow?

[Rollo]

John Hancock was writing his name in it :D

[MrJan]

Not snowing here at Goodwood

[djarumdudley]

there will be documentation of the lack of snow, right?

[MrJan]

I have some photographic evidence but sadly they don't let us marshals use cameras so not as many as I'd like

[schmenke]

So, draw us a picture instead.

[MrJan]

Photographic proof of no snow at Goodwood:

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3542/3690429177_b2b5e251ca.jpg

And in case you aren't convinced that I took that photo at Goodwood:

[Rollo]

Can I get a "Woohoo" for Polo Mints? Or Volkswagen Polos? Or Polo Shirts?... but not Polo.

[MrJan]

It's raining so I'm going to ignore Rollo's nonesense.

[schmenke]

It's stopped raining here.

[MrJan]

And also here

[djarumdudley]

rain's just started....again

[MrJan]

Don't lie :p :

[djarumdudley]

why i've never?!

[MrJan]

Never what?

[djarumdudley]

never been without the last word.

[Rollo]

It's raining in Sydney. I think I might go and leave a cake outside in it :D

[MrJan]

Don't waste good cake, give it to me instead :facelick:

[Rollo]

Hurrah, Friday evening.

It's off down the local for me to jump on the helter-skelter of pints and crisps, that is Friday evening.

I'm not really hungry, I might just have a packet of crisps... now I'm thirsty, I need a pint... you know what always goes well with a pint? A packet of crisps...

And thus 8, 9 or 10 pints and packets of crisps later, it's 3am and you're standing outside and freezing for no real good reason, only jump on the helter-skelter of coffee and cake, that is Saturday morning.

I'm really cold, I might just have a cup of coffee... you know what always goes well with a coffee? A nice bit of cake...

[MrJan]

Crazy Australians, it's only Friday morning.

[djarumdudley]

not anymore

[MrJan]

True that

[NoahsGirl]

I have the last word

[MrJan]

Untrue that

[djarumdudley]

that's a false double negative

[MrJan]

eh?

[Rollo]

Big words is confusing to Mr Yeo. Words like "it", "the" and "cat".

When Yeo grow up, he be going to big big school with clock on top.

[MrJan]

Out Digby?

[Rollo]

40 years ago today, three men set out on a journey to set foot on a great big rock. Well, two of them. I bet that Michael Collins must have been at one point the "loneliest" man alive.

[djarumdudley]

he must still be lonelier as the last word has also gone away.

[MrJan]

aaayyyyyyyy :up: :up:

[djarumdudley]

no fonzying allowed

[MrJan]

Going to see doctor lw

[Rollo]

One - nil to the Eng-er-land,
One - nil to the Eng-er-land,
One - nil to the Eng-er-land,
One - nil to the Eng-er-land :D

Are we happy? You bet your life we are! Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee...

[MrJan]

In yer face Ponting :D

[djarumdudley]

now my last word

[MrJan]

I wish I had the LW to put in my essay, still another few hundred before I can do that though so another late night :(

[djarumdudley]

i would think the last word in itself would suffice as a proper essay.

[MrJan]

I've never tried it, perhaps for my next assignment I'll give it a go.

[djarumdudley]

at the very least you'll have one amused professor

[MrJan]

Doesn't matter anyway as I never meet the bugger, doing everything long distance so it's all over the internet :)

[Rollo]

Doesn't matter anyway as I never meet the bugger, doing everything long distance so it's all over the internet :)

I imagine that it would be if you did it from a long distance... eeeew.

[MrJan]

Eh? :confused: ;)

[djarumdudley]

let me save the last word from where this is going

[MrJan]

The lw goes nowhere.

[Donney]

I don't know....

[MrJan]

We know that you don't know

[djarumdudley]

and you don't know the last word

[MrJan]

I pretty much live with the lw

[Mp3 Astra]

You're going to have to live without it for a long, long time. Say good bye!

[MrJan]

That's simply not true.

[Donney]

Some people....

[MrJan]

Hey...hey, take it easy....take it easy

[Donney]

Easy like Sunday morning....

[MrJan]

Wrong thread

[djarumdudley]

right last word

[MrJan]

left last word

[Donney]

Since you left it I'll take it.

[MrJan]

I came back

[Donney]

Welcome!

[MrJan]

Thank you

[schmenke]

The LW shall be enjoying my company for the next little while...

[Donney]

It will endure your company, but enjoying....

[MrJan]

It's bored now

[schmenke]

Because it's back with you...

[MrJan]

What could possibly be boring about writing another essay? :rolleyes: Although there is the extremely exciting prospect of the first game of the season on Saturday, bit of a mission (in our tiny country anyway) but it'll be worth it when the ref blows his whistle and we begin life in League 1

[djarumdudley]

the last word abandons you as you have overlooked the possibility of writing an essay about the season opener

[Donney]

The LW needs more summer and less essays.

[MrJan]

So do I :(

[Donney]

Enjoy!!!!

[schmenke]

I shall be enjoying a long weekend with the LW.

[MrJan]

First day LW

[Donney]

The LW and I have some biscuits to make

[MrJan]

I've eaten biscuits

[Donney]

Me too.

[djarumdudley]

last word before sleep

[Donney]

First LW before work.

[MrJan]

srthrsyrths

[Donney]

Is that contagious?

[MrJan]

It can be if you want it to

[Donney]

I don't think I want it, thanks though.

[MrJan]

Your loss...... And my lw

[Donney]

Yeah right....

[MrJan]

Yup

[schmenke]

Nope.

[MrJan]

Yarp

[Rollo]

I wanna rock and roll all night, and party every day.

[djarumdudley]

but without the last word

[MrJan]

I want to finish this essay.....or rather I need to as it's deadline day.

[Donney]

Good luck, the LW won't disturb you.

[MrJan]

I have the LW, both in the essay and here :D

[schmenke]

What's the topic of your essay?

[Donney]

We know it's not the LW, since he knows nothing about it.

[MrJan]

I know almost everything there is to know about the LW.

Essay was on Construction Technology, looking at quality, building in a confined space and building regulations regarding fire.

[djarumdudley]

seems you don't know about having it now

[MrJan]

Really?

[Donney]

Indeed.

[MrJan]

Damn straight

[Donney]

LW is mine.

[MrJan]

'cept it ain't

[Donney]

Oh, I'd say it is.

[MrJan]

Can you stop doing that, I'm trying to catch your LW post count (to prove that I'm the saddest get here) and if you keep posting I won't be able to do it.

[schmenke]

I doubt that I'll ever catch you two, but I'm aiming to surpass Rollo :D

[MrJan]

It's a sad life really, I stumbled across the LW thread while I was on work experience and over 4 years later I'm still here writing pointless crap. On the bright side though I have the LW :p :

[djarumdudley]

it's always pointless when you no longer have the last word

[Rollo]

Essay was on Construction Technology, looking at quality, building in a confined space and building regulations regarding fire.

Grade II and higher Government Listed Buildings containing public servants are not required to have fire escapes retro-fitted where this would significantly alter the building.
Perhaps Her Majesty's Public Servants are not easily inflamed :D

[Rollo]

I doubt that I'll ever catch you two, but I'm aiming to surpass Rollo :D

It's just like being on the motorway. I'd be in the central lane doing 85-90 and someone in a car that barely comes up to my window line would whizz past at 110...

... and then they're having scones with Mr Plod about 5 miles up the road. Mr Plod likes scones; he let's people know that he wants to have scones with them by having a blue light flash on top of his car. It means "Come, let us have scones"

[Donney]

Can you stop doing that, I'm trying to catch your LW post count (to prove that I'm the saddest get here) and if you keep posting I won't be able to do it.

Sorry but I can't help it. I might stop when and if I find a life, in the meantime...

[MrJan]

Well that's just not very nice

[Donney]

But the LW likes me.

[MrJan]

That isn't actually true, the LW thinks that you smeeeelllllll of wee

[Donney]

I think you are mistaking me with a a certain Darco person.

[MrJan]

It's not me, it's the LW. Whatever happened to DD anyway? Consigned to the history books of the LW like Carl and Mr Kurtz (who IIRC began the original thread)

[schmenke]

I want to know what Rollo puts in his tea...

[MrJan]

Mostly crack.........and mushrooms..crack and mushrooms

[Donney]

Not sugar.... I should say.

DD seems to have abandoned us forever.

[schmenke]

She left thinking that she had the LW.
Little did she know...

[MrJan]

I've always thought that she knew little :p : :D

[Donney]

The LW agrees.

[djarumdudley]

with me having it

[MrJan]

for a while

[Donney]

Shouldn't you be watching some football?

[MrJan]

I'd already watched the football, very good it was too :D

[Rollo]

I want to know what Rollo puts in his tea...

Nothing.

We have cold tea, without milk or sugar... or tea. And we don't even have a cup, we have to drink it out of a rolled up newspaper.

[MrJan]

And eat coal

[Rollo]

Luxury…

When I were lad we used to live in cave wit' two dozen goats and ‘ave to pray 50 times a day, eat curried gravel everyday and make 3 dozen bombs before bedtime.
If dad were in bad mood he would make us read t’koran backwards and then behead us and sell us into sex slavery… if we were lucky!

Tell that tae the young jihadists of today and they wont believe you.

[Donney]

I'll confirm it with the LW.

[MrJan]

Unconfirmed

[Donney]

No comments.

[MrJan]

As usual

[Donney]

Does it mean you find my remarks not witty enough?

[MrJan]

I didn't know that they were witty at all :p :

[Donney]

Ignorant!!!!!

[MrJan]

Arrogant!!!

[Donney]

Extravagant!!!!

[MrJan]

Immigrant!!

[Rollo]

Pomegranate!

[Rollo]

http://www.aaroads.com/northeast/new_jersey001/nj-029_nb_exit_002_01.jpg

I've just found the road to MPs expenses.

[Donney]

I have just found the LW.

[MrJan]

I've just found my feet

[Donney]

Just below your ankles I hope....

[MrJan]

Near enough

[Donney]

Good for you!

[MrJan]

It is

[Donney]

Imagine if your feet were by your elbows.

[MrJan]

I'd rather not.

[djarumdudley]

what would happen if you were suffering from a double diagnosis of tennis elbow and athlete's foot?

[Rollo]

You would hurt... quite badly I imagine.

[djarumdudley]

not so long as i have the last word

[Rollo]

Even despite a "double diagnosis of tennis elbow and athlete's foot"? Give over, that's a bit rich.

[Donney]

Don't touch the LW with such a medical condition.

[MrJan]

Oi

[Donney]

Yeah!!!

[MrJan]

No

[Donney]

You live in denial.....

[MrJan]

NO, I live in Exeter

[Rollo]

Exeter, in a county only famous for afternoon tea and that bloody stupid metal obelisk thing with the riddles on.

Didn't Chris Martin come from Exeter? And if so, does that explain his whineyness? :D

[djarumdudley]

nothing can explain his whineyness. actually from this point on when he's introduced anywhere it should be as "His Whineyness, Chris Martin"!

[Rollo]

There are many problems with people from the south... MANY!!!

[Donney]

That's why the LW should never go to Exeter again.

[Rollo]

Hitherto and wherefore, we should pronounce a borders ban on the LW from entering the county of Devon, and to be decontaminated immediately.

All complaints should be addressed to:
British Airways
Inghams Drive
Redditch.

[MrJan]

Exeter, in a county only famous for afternoon tea and that bloody stupid metal obelisk thing with the riddles on.

I saw a fat bird stuck in that riddle thing within about 2 weeks of being it unveiled :up: I'm not quite sure how they got her out, there were fire crews with something hydraulic but there were no cut marks on the thing the next day. I stood there watching it (along with a group of lads who were singing football chants at her) for about 20 minutes but sadly I'd had a few ales and only have a hazy recollection of events so will never know how she managed to escape.

And if I had to think of anything worth be famous for then I think afternoon tea would be pretty close to the top of the list :D

Oh and the LW lives in Devon, it just holidays in Spain, the US and whatever planet Rollo is on.

[Donney]

Devon is a fake location for the LW, it definitely does not live or like it there.

[MrJan]

Rubbish, tis God's own (and the LW's) County.

[Donney]

I don't know about God, but I know about the LW.

[MrJan]

You know nerzing

[schmenke]

The LW spends only the occasional brief holiday stint in Europe, and it has recently confided that both Devon and Exeter are unlikely future return destinations.
Its permanent residence is on this side of the pond.

[MrJan]

Poppycock

[Donney]

The LW is not such a fan of snowfalls.

[MrJan]

It's sunny here

[Donney]

It's scorching here.

[MrJan]

But snowing?

[schmenke]

Warm and sunny here. Besides, the LW doesn't mind frolicking in the snow. Certainly more entertaining than sipping cold tea or puzzling obelisks.

[MrJan]

Sun and snow come and go but tea will always be immense.

[schmenke]

Is that taken from one of your essays? :s

[MrJan]

No,.....but I may use it in the next one :D

[schmenke]

Do you want to fail? :p :

[MrJan]

I won't fail with that gem, that's PGDip gold right there.

[schmenke]

Eh?

[MrJan]

It's probably above you, I'm a student you know :p : :D

[Rollo]

I am feeling really really tired after watching the end of the first day's play at the Oval.

It's funny because I don't recall seeing the Gasometer in the background. I hope they've not dismantled it. That would be all kinds of Boo.

[Donney]

Sure, sure....

[djarumdudley]

no more last word for you

[MrJan]

Boooooooooo

[Donney]

Now he's not happy.

[MrJan]

Actually I'm fairly happy, thanks to Broad and Swann this afternoon and a shakey middle order from the Aussies :D :D

[Donney]

Ok, then you won't care about not having the LW.

[djarumdudley]

but i do

[MrJan]

No I need the LW now, Exeter are playing poorly and even our performance in the cricket isn't enough to cheer me up

[Rollo]

Ponting's out now, and the Ashes tilt ever so closer to being England's once more.

[Donney]

And the LW is so obviously mine.

[MrJan]

Yes....obviously :rolleyes:

[djarumdudley]

yet again you fail to understand the meaning of obvious

[Donney]

Let him be, he's a student.

[MrJan]

No I'm not, I'm at work right now

[Donney]

The LW isn't.

[MrJan]

The LW doesn't need a job

[Donney]

That is a good thing.

[MrJan]

But I do :(

[Donney]

I am more in need of money...

[MrJan]

Me first

[Rollo]

I am in need of some yogurt, some peach slices, a croissant, a black coffee and the morning newspaper.

[djarumdudley]

that's a bunch of items the last word has little time for

[Rollo]

Fiddlesticks. Even at 200mph there is always time for baked goods. There is even a country in Europe who thinks that baked goods are so important that they have named their people after them... the Danish.

[MrJan]

And the small island off the coast of N.Ireland known as Small White Loaf

[Rollo]

I think I'd like to spend a week in summer on the Isle of Muck. That sounds like an altogether peaceful holiday.

http://www.isleofmuck.com/

[Donney]

Right then, you start planning your stay there while I enjoy the company of the LW.

[MrJan]

That's enough enjoyment now

[Donney]

Not really...

[MrJan]

Eh?

[Donney]

The LW is right here.
