Is that like Eastenders only with petroil instead of unwanted pregnancies?

[Brian Thompson]

It's like soap, but without the lather.....

Spot on Rob, and I think that topic was covered in series #607.....

Of course, one of the main 'story arcs' concerns ethanol in modern pump fuel, and I think The Tharg Family made a cameo appearance in a few episodes....

I am looking forward to your Yuletide Competition, with great enthusiasm (Mr Cox,) i mean Thompson we need some sort of Festive joy to partake in,! as even our sport is suffering from the wranglings of Bureaucracy , (well in the trials department anyway), the ACU and all the other nimbi es, pulling events backwards with more legislation, etc.

Wotcha mate,

It's funny you should say that Dicky......the bit about the traditional festive compo that is.... Yours is not the only festive cap comp request that has been received here at Thompson Towers in recent times, so it looks like once again I will be trawling the depths of the Thompson Archives in search of comedic oblivion and humorous culdesacs in order to appease the huge demand (from both of you....) so watch this (hyper) space.....

Now then...about this Brian Cox geezer.......! Firstly, I reckon our old mate (and much missed on here...) Andy Z knows more about particle physics and quantum mechanics than that ex D'Reem keyboard player......

And secondly, I'd like to point out that Mr Cox has never even been in a Tardis, or a real UFO either come to that, and furthermore.....I have been mistaken for this bloke (see pic 1 and 2) a few times (true!) but never John Culshaw, so there....!!!!

Great Brian awaiting your next installments of festive humor., have been trawling on u tube the guitar solos of most of the original solo masters , around our area the local pubs used to have, and still do Willy Austin who has been going for years, but his sidekick who was a great guitarist died 3 years ago and that was Big Jim Sullivan , he accompanied Eric Clapton and many others also, i just love to hear a solo played well ,hanging on to notes superb. cheers Brian.

[Brian Thompson]

To right dick, if enough people prod the mirth master nicely.......he might just do it.......a good old festive fun pack is our Brian.. ( also pretty good on a banjo )
Lets see what comes down the chimney.....

[Brian Thompson]

It all depends on......

So, how long have you been suffering from that nasty banjo bug, Brian?
My apologies if you caught it off of me!

[Brian Thompson]

Dr Higgo's been at the emu oil again......!!

Hi John,

I think what has happened here is that Dave saw the attached pic and it reminded him of me (or Professor Brian Cox).....or something..... (It was still a very nice compliment though! )

Having said that, I am seriously considering taking the plunge next year and bagging myself a five string...... I actually had one many years ago during my 'experimental' period...I also had a sitar.......(no, really!)

Hey mate, I spotted a good banjo joke today.....Did you hear the one about the banjo player who was so badly out of tune that the other banjo players started to notice.....? (!) Yep, with material like that it's a grand fraternity that I think I should definitely be a part of......

Brian.

[johnrunnacles]

Condolences

It comes to us all, I guess, Brian. You have my sympathies .......
But Welcome aboard ............ if you're sure that's what you want?

You know, a geezer once offered to sell me a Rolls Royce for £20.....only problem was it didn't have any doors fitted....That's no good, I thought.....how am I going to get in...??!

Brian.
