Satisfaction Guaranteed

Track of the day - Walking On The Moon - Police.

This morning Mrs B disappeared into the vast metropolitan sprawl that is Bogsville. She went in search of a market that sells potatoes and carrots. "What?" I hear you cry. "They still have a market in Bogsville? And people go there to shop, rather than visit a modern, gleaming supermarket, with handy car park full of spotless LandRover Discoveries?"

"Oh arrr. We do indeed and sometimes there be mud on the carrots and potatoes too."

Man on the roof

erectionThere used to be a guy in Bogsville who had a van that advertised
"The biggest and best erections.
Satisfaction guaranteed every time.
Or your money back.
"
He was advertising his television aerial service, but for some reason the slogan kept his phone ringing all day and all night. I haven't seen the van for years. Probably gave it all up and became a male stripper.

I only mention this interesting fact because we needed a second aerial and the guys turned up today. They were supposed to be coming on Monday but that's a holiday. Even aerial erection specialists need to recharge their batteries occasionally. The one guy is 75 and the other is a mere 67. It's more of a hobby for them these days but 50 years of paid erections must be some kind of record.

These days the 75 year old drives the van and carries the aerials, the youngster shins up the ladder and climbs on the roof.
