Wales...Whales???

I was at the bar the other night with a friend having some beers. We had been there a while when two rather large ladies came up to the bar and ordered drinks. I noticed when they ordered they both had strong accents so I said ‘Hi, are you two gals from Scotland?’ One of them spoke up, with quite an attitude and said ‘it’s WALES you idiot!!!’

So I immediately said ‘Sorry, are you two Whales from Scotland?’

The doc says I should be able to see fine again in a few days after the swelling goes down.

 

 

Ha ha ha!  Good one Gary!!  Was it swelling of the eyes though? Only the Welsh tend to be very short!

And I was worried I'd have to send the dogs out for you Gary!

A man walks into an emergency room with two black eyes and a
five iron wrapped tightly around his throat. Naturally the
doctor asks him what happened.

"Well, it was like this," said the man. "I was having a quiet
round of golf with my wife when she sliced her ball into a
pasture of cows. We went to look for it and while I was rooting
around I noticed one of the cows had something white at its rear
end. I walked over and lifted up the tail and sure enough, there
was my wife's golf ball. . . stuck right in the middle of the
cow's butt. That's when I made my mistake."

"What did you do?" Asks the doctor.

"Well, I lifted the tail and yelled to my wife, 'This one here
looks like yours!'"

Haha! Good one Michael! I am betting the cow wasn't too amoosed either!

Great Line Up

Djinnie

The first few trips there were 4 of us from the U.S.  Met up with pals from all over the world... great fun..!  This summer there will be about 8 racers plus a bunch of helpers and spectators from the U.S... just more fun..!!

Cheers..!!

Holidays

Hi Sue, 

When is your operation scheduled? I hope you are not having to wait too long. Planning a holiday will do you good, it will give you something to focus on. I would love to go to Bali, I have seen lots of photos of it, two of my friends went there on there honeymoon. It looks beautiful and all that wonderful sunshine. I know with you living in Australia that probably isn't a bonus, but we are getting foot rot over here. It has been rain and wind and then wind and rain, I am beginning to despair of summer ever arriving at all this year. So Bali sounds like a plan to me!

I see thyroid surgeon in June 4 to schedule surgery. Until then still don't know what my treatment will be particularly, for the spine met. Further scan to be done. the weather here in Sydney is horrible today, it has rained for about 24 hours and getting quite cold as we head to winter.

Cool Picture Ron!

Cool picture Ron. Think Fox, Gary, and a few others on this Board would be right at home in the pic!

Yes  I bet many here would love the IOM. But only in the summer. A pal just told me about a new pub to check out. There were 4 of us from the U.S. The rest are mostly from the UK. FYI I just had a date with the Vampire. Now waiting to see my Oncologist. Best part is taking or flirting with young Sara..!
