Thud4444 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I did the same thing this morning. I had a little light grey left after painting so I thought, I check the seams on that F82. I really wish I hadn't done that. Ignorance is bliss. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBaron Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 In that first photo, young W is staring into the depths of time with that rapt profundity which only children possess. Or is he just reacting to his paterfamilias roaming the house again in something by Versace?

I'd love to judge, but if I had the opportunity I'd happily rock a onesie. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you should mention that, as I wore my Batman onesie for the first time the other day, and Mrs P rather archly told me not to even bother trying to look dignified. I think that's just her way of coping with the roiling, surging, extremely sexual urges she was no doubt feeling at that instant. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascoteer Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I'm with Mrs P on this. If I had a husband who had taken to wearing onsies, he'd rapidly find himself battered around the head with the 'Battle of Ballymurphy Memorial Skillet'! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procopius Posted November 17, 2016 Author Share Posted November 17, 2016 Fortunately for me, despite her many virtues, Mrs P has almost comically weak arms, and needs me around to ensure a steady supply of jam. NB This is much less comical when she decides she needs air in her car's tires at 8 PM when it's below freezing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascoteer Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 You don't need strong arms to wield a skillet, it's all about technique. My Gran was about 4ft 8ins (and less than 100lbs) when she took on the Royal British Amy 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a pal who used to buy his aspirins over in Ballymurphy, you could get a plastic bag of 100 or so slightly out of date ones from a chemists' shop up there for a couple of quid. A bag would last him a couple of years: last I heard he was still breathing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob G Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Grown men in onesies? Sweet ever lovin' little babby Jeebus that is so wrong. Is it safe to come back into the room now? Do people still use air in car tyres? How delightfully 1923. Hie thee to your nearest purveyor of quality automotive rubber and get them to fill the tyres with nitrogen. The benefits are many, but mostly, your pressure topping up days will be a thing of the dim, distant past. They've been using nitrogen in airyplane tyres for a few days now, and if it's good enough for airyplanes... Here in the land of 'charge as much as you can', it's only $8 a tyre. (Even if it was $80, it would still be a bargain for the sheer convenience. Go and get it done, pronto if not sooner. Then rejoice in the wonders of the post-steam age.) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Rod Stewart! I typically buy hiking shoes and wear them with everything. Oh, and some red Chucks I wear when I have to don a suit for work. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
