Imitation is the highest form of flattery.
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 20:44
Exactly.
And I nicked it off somebody else.
Some folk are easilly led.

It's great when you can borrow pics - you can pic and chews. (I only borrow them.)
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:09
'I only borrow them'
Tell that to the Judge.

After chewing it over, I am going to start talking.

Gerroff. It's ancient.
Go on then. If I must.
Jeweller - "Eighteen carat?"
Wigan lad (about to propose to his girlfriend) - "No, I'm chewing a caramel"
I feel somewhat tricked.

I wasn't tricking you.
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:39
Don't be telling me you hadn't heard/read it before, Jo Anne.
Usually accopmpanied with the 'hands on thighs' one.
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:41
Which one, Dostaf?
.... No, I do remember it. As you often type - there's nowt wrong with repeats.

Don't try that old 'oops' trick with me Jo Anne. I can see there is no edit on the post.
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:52
Which 'oops' trick? 21:46 ... No, I do remember it. Hands off th'eyes.
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:55
I meant off you eyes. Do keep up at the back!
Replied: 12th Nov 2012 at 21:59
Well spotted - just checking you've not still got them covered.

dostaf -i had never seen this piccy before - Honest, i just googled caramel shop and this is one of many that came up,
i would Never knowingly use anyone elses pics, Hand on Heart where is your piccy ????
Replied: 13th Nov 2012 at 11:26
Don't worry, Dostaf's only joking, Piccyme123.
(He linked to the picture 11th Nov - 21:19 and called it 'Helter Skelter'.)
Wigan's had 'toffee' shops, rather than sweet shops, for years. Not sure if there are any good ones left in the town centre, now that Uncle Joe's Emporium has closed down.
Replied: 13th Nov 2012 at 11:42
Of course I was joking, Piccy.
Also giving a nod to your recently acquired ability to put pics on:
She nicked me pic, Bentlegs.
She couldn't do that and post it on here last week.
Keep it up.

ta jo anne & dostaf, glad we got that cleared up, would never tread knowlingly on anyones toes. I am enjoying adding pics, suits my name dont you think
as for toffee shops, and sweet shops, i / we used to own one, our very own childhood dream of owning our own toffee shop, quite a few years ago, most of our toffee's were sold as
W/O = weigh outs, as opposed to factory wrapped, i loved to weigh them on the scales put them into paper bags, honest was like when i was 4,5,yrs, playing at shop. Happy Days

Typing of clearing things up; the thinking, if you can call it that, behind theis thread is that daft Werthers advert.
Soome silly sod waxes lyrical about her favourite caramel shop.
Replied: 13th Nov 2012 at 15:39
Piccy - I've just been reading your old blog - and seen that as a school leaver you got a job in a factory and worked in the toffee making department for a while. Your supervisor told you you could eat as many as you liked, which seemed like the answer to a prayer at first, but the novelty soon wore off.

jo anne, that is soooooooooo true, it was my best job ever, not just the toffee department, the entire factory, did not realise it at the time, although i did enjoy it, but now looking back, after school which i loved, i had the time of my life and got paid for it
Sozzzzzz dostaf, i know this has nothing to do with your thread, but i could not ignore jo anne, i had to reply cos it would have been rude not to, hope you understand
Sorry dostaf ---

Nothing whatsoever to be sorry about, Piccy.
It's a daft thread aboout a daft subject. just a bit of fun.
Now if it had been a thread about how the Parish Church clock is doing regards timekeeping, that would be different.
Before you ask, it's forty seconds slow this week.
Replied: 15th Nov 2012 at 14:27
I would have said if was slower than that
Replied: 15th Nov 2012 at 15:27
you are to kind dostaf, and to show how much i appreciate your kindness, ive found out why the clock is wrong, you've got it round the wrong way
ohhhhhh i do love adding piccys, especially silly ones
this was Not my Fault, the ikkle Imp on my shoulder made me add this next one
bet you wish i'd never learned how to add piccys
