If I Had A Nammer

I'd belt somebody at the BBC.

Bang Out Of Order

Article

Erm....be more artoclear.

See that gavel?

See that QI programme?

See that Stephen Fry?

He told the nation, via the BBC, that we don't have gavels in courts in the UK.

Pah!
it's that clown davies rubbing off on him....It makes him all flustered and getting his facts wrong.

Frotage?

No thanks, I am going to have tea(dinner) soon-ish, maybe later if you have the correct money.




(Pssst, It's Frottage)

'the correct money'

I have an certificate, don't you know?

Do you still take Luncheon Vouchers?

On Thursdays, yes. Only the ones made of sausage meat though.

See Judges and Cynthia Payne.

I remember it well, I was that.....reader of the news.

Were you banged to rights?

I wonder where that phrase originates.

I'm clever me, I'm from Ince.

I've C & P'd this:-

It seems to have started as an americanism, the earliest
recorded use of the phrase being in a publication called Life in Sing Sing. Sing Sing is, of course, the nickname of a famous American prison. The idea behind it there is that the person was caught in the act of some misdeed.
We find the same sense of 'bang' when we use phrases such as 'Bang in the middle' or 'It hit him bang on the nose.' There, too, there is a suggestion that it was exactly right, just as being caught in the act means you cannot possibly deny it.

Ahh.

Nowt to do with the fall of the hammer then.

I think that's an auctioneers term.

Read, mark learn & inwardly digest & you may get another doctorate mester D.

One's bad enough.


I've started getting funny looks in the street.

And it all went quiet when I went into the corner shop for some mint imperials.

Life's not so grand, when you're standing on your hands, and banging in the rivets with your head!

Could be worse.

Have you seen the golden rivet?

Does the apprentice have to bend down to find it mester.

Something like that, Ray.

A good mate of mine once owned an ivory gavel
All smooth and white with an odd shaped head, asked me if I wanted to hold it. I said no it was a dark room.
Wake up now Tom this session of hypnotherapy is over.
