  1. Drop your trousers and I'll oblige.
  2. Unfortunately, those photographs are covered by a horrendous PhotoFuckit logo.
  3. Reminds me of the one about the three French kittens that went skating on thin ice. Sadly, un deux trois cats sank...
  4. "We used to eat fish, chips, peas and blancmange on a Friday" as opposed to "We used to eat fish, chips, peas, and blancmange on a Friday" The second sentence has an Oxford comma after "peas". Without it, you could infer that we ate "peas and blancmange" 😖. Obviously it's not always necessary, but there are times when it is.
  5. This was a real sign outside a Liverpool optician's: "Right, can you make out any letters on the bottom line?" "No, but I can spell out the letters that have been stolen..."
  6. 99 times out of 100 it's Photoshop. But there's always the odd one.
  7. That's a shame but I will continue with Contact-less as it's far and away most convenient.
  8. I remember those Variety packs! Can't remember if it was 6 or 8 little boxes, but I remember we used to fight to avoid the cornflakes of which there were always 2 boxes!
  9. Ain't Photoshop wonderful!
  10. Sad day, though he has had dementia for a few years. 😢
  11. Such a tragedy that he took his own life. 😢
  12. "We're not all Rob Roys, you know."
  13. So we should wave bye bye to both bronzes (er, steel!) as both are worth less than the 1961 farthing. Charities may complain but frankly I'm more likely to put 5p or more in a tin than coins that make me look like a miserly cheapskate. I would however hate to lose something called a "penny" so what do people suggest might get round this?
  14. I did say "in real terms"!!
  15. "Aye. It's a braw wee moonlit nicht the noo."
  16. The last person to be President of the United States (I'm not counting Krusty the Clown).
  17. I agree about the bronze. Did you know that the 1p is worth less in real terms than the farthing was when demonetised?
  18. Just a bit of cud. "Nothing to see here...."
  19. I didn't see that, or hear about i. But it seemed a reasonable guess as why else would they have put that as an answer?
  20. No! Who designed the £2 reverse?
  21. I haven't got Freeman to hand, but if F328 refers to the wide date reverse then yours is definitely that.
  22. Yes, those PFNNY and ONF varieties are extremely unexciting being die fills, not errors.
  23. Yes, it's too good to be anything but a modern repro.
  24. I got 6/6 on the associated quiz, though one was a guess!
  25. Minnie the Minx?
