This morning he sent a letter to Pugh,Pugh,Barney McGrew,Cuthbert & Dibble around the team that said “Cuckoo Tango Tango Expedite”. In Trumpton-speak this means that the Cuckoo is in serious trouble "Oh No!!" and everyone needs to drop everything to activate the plan called “Tango Tango”. Panic set in and the clatter of wood on wood as everyone ran into the office. We haven’t got a plan called “Tango Tango” , in truth a lot of the residents don't even know what a "Plan" is, so played safe and I asked for a copy. The response I got was “You don’t want to know boss. You really don’t want to know.” He is on leave from about 10:00am today and not back until Tuesday afternoon. I’m already looking forward to Tuesday when the Ice cream van is here again. "OK, good, erm I think" said Mr Factory. "Now get back to work now all of you with your "Cuckoo that and Cukoo this", we have that massive order on, the "Rose in a box" order for Mrs Cobbit and we need to get all 10 box's over to Camberwick Green by Friday" I am not 100% sure you don't live in Trumpton. Your work place is very clock orintated ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the birds own house with an address and everything, he won't last long. Always having a bit of a ding-dong and sticking his neck out, I heard.

Popular Post Xela Posted August 28, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) A cracking BH Monday today Saw some amazing engines at the National Railway Museum in York. Highlights include The Mallard and the Duchess of Hamilton. Plus an early Japanese bullet train. Talking of Japanese... never knew so many hot Japanese women loved steam engines! Followed by a pub crawl around some of Yorks finest boozers. Stomach lined with Fish n Chips in the sun by York Minster. Then a non league game at York City. Sun was blazing and was a superb game. 9/10. WB. Repeatedly. Edited August 28, 2017 by Xela 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted August 31, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2017 Sorry, Ruge, I wasn't going to post after reading the above. Here now starts 3 weeks off work for me and the best thing about it is that I don't really have any plans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Peppa Pig World? Jesus Christ. When I have kids there's no chance they're watching that shite. My niece is obsessed with it and she mimics the 'wahhh!' noise whenever she doesn't get her own way. That little bint is an awful role model for young kids. Great in a sandwich though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I wouldn't raise my kids on that shite. They'd be watching Breaking Bad and The Wire by the time they're 5, or going to bed with no tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 In some dingy room in a dingy part of Southampton, but my window overlooks the docks. It's a lovely sight at night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our peaks maybe relatively small but they're still no joke . Even on Snowden the lowered oxygen levels are quite noticeable when constantly moving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
