caught the grand daughter yesterday with an old trick grabbed a banana and a sewing needlw and pushed the needle through the skin and rotared it inside the banana effectivly slicing the banana into 20mm pieces inside the skin

said grand daughter could not believe her eyes when she peeled the banana and it was already cut up for her now believes "Poppa" grows special banans for her

nothong wrong with grand kids having those sort of beliefs about old Pop

Yeah, I tried the old, "Pull the thumb off" illusion, fooled my grandkids for a full thirty seconds and it is only recently that I learned how to do it.... oh well !
My dad used to write our names on eggs with indelible pencil the night before he boiled them for us for breakfast and tell us the chooks had laid them specially for us, had me conned for years.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

Furph/PD Copied this from old galah post as am too lazy to retype it

My old uncle smoked LOG CABIN tobacco. The lid of the tin had a log cabin scene on it.
For years when I was young the old bugger, he had me looking for the dog on the lid. I searched in vain for that bloody dog that he had me convinced was there. I was probably about 5 when this started so I searched for that dog for about 5 years after.
Yes the BLOODY DOG was there. He eventually told me that it was,
"BEHIND THE TREE HAVING A PISS"

Best part of getting on is you can use the old ones on the young generation
"Pass me the left handed screwdriver"
" Go to the hardware shop and ask for a Long Wait" Cheesy

I started out with nothing and still have most of it

Nothin wrong with brains crumbed though. Old Unc told me once that eatin brains made you think better and nuts made you perform better.

Think I ate too many brains and not enuff nuts as all I do now 'IS THINK ABOUT IT' Cheesy

with you on the shovel thing and you are right about the slow down thing guys

I thought it might be because things have to travel so far when you get old
Its not only female upper structure that gravity causes to hang lower I have noticed a decided lowering of a couple of swingers as I put a bit of age on or it could be that my legs are wearing down

I always figgered that those things were pretty safe ther until I sat on them one day Shocked

Maybe you could invent a little support sack for the boys, call it a B-string...might make a fortune.
