You must not look directly at the sun. You'll not see much and go blind to see nothing. If you do look at the sun you have to use smoked haddock to protect your eyes. Following those instructions, do you get a picture? I do!

my last reply has been on since this morning and no-one commented on my mis-spelling of shall. this was in order to get the name of another FISH into my reply . can anyone spot it . monty python fans may remember john cleese trying to buy a licence for his pet fish - eric .

Shalfish? Not a real fish, but a crustacean. Why a crustacean? They make good pies, I guess.

No I am not off my chump, or any other local colloquialism you might choose to use.

No thanks, Its a dog licence with the word dog crossed out and fish written in with crayon. I did not like all the others, they were to flat.

I was leaving space for others. Did you now they breed them in the water warmed by the outfall of Calder Hall power station. Something a breakthrough in fisheries, I understand.

I was driving behind this Sunbeam last Saturday on the Boston run. Same engine as the Ladybird I believe.

Hey! Joining the legal moped riding set at last. Be careful though. I came off my mobylette on my first day on a wet man hole cover!
