The Fonz's motorbike in "Happy Days" was the one that Steve McQueen rode in "The Great Escape". That's a fact, Jack.

Did you also travel by raft down the ol' Mississippi with your good friend Huckleberry Finn? Kidding aside, these old tales are interesting.

I know you will be as disappointed as me to hear that Cuba lost 10-6 in the final to Japan.

Mystic Pete strikes again.

Bit harsh, Swalnalla.

Cuba march on to the final, where they will meet Japan. Revolution O Muerte!

Hats off to all concerned.

I agree with Denzel. Hats off to the happy couple.

If a cove can't quote The Girls Aloud without the politically-correct mob crying foul then I fear the terrorists have already won.

Only one team in Canada now, Joe. Montreal have closed down and the franchise has gone to Washington. (DC not Tyne and Wear). In other news, the USA crash out of the Classic, beaten 2-1 by Mexico. Where is your christ now, George Bushes?

The Cuba team that George Bushes tried to ban from the competition have marched on to the semi-finals. The USA have to beat Mexico today to stay in the tournament. It's all terribly exciting, yes?

Sizsells is quite right. Congratulations to him/her for finally speaking up for the decent majority of folk on here. Some of the juvenile tommyrot posted on here fair turns my stomach. It's a bliddy disgrace, and that's swearing. I'll bid you good day.

Ahoyhoy, Joe. Has the World Baseball Classic been getting much coverage in Canada? I notice their/your brave boys beat the USA the other day. Quite an upset, what? I think they have since been knocked out, which is a bit of a shame. Also, can you explain what the "mercy rule" is?

You should have looked up "humorous" in your dictionary.

You've met Leah's fiancee, have you? Nice chap, is he?

This isn't about me nipping down the back lane of Victoria Terrace to drain the spuds when strolling home from the Top End*, then? That's a relief. *I wouldn't really do this, I'm just being "amusing".

Hats off to Natasha, she's either very foolish or very brave.

Good work, Leah. Having met the lass, I can confirm she could have spoken the above post without needing to draw a breath.

Royal Mail, a profitable company, will pay the bill (subject to appeal). Postcomm, the regulatory body for postal services, have imposed this penalty for poor delivery performance. This is the point of having regulation, I suppose. I don't know who keeps the fine money paid.

Just passing on another "heads up" vis a vis a nasty little scam that is doing the rounds. "I don't how many of you shop at Asdas, but this may be useful to know. I am posting this to you to warn you of something that happened to me, as I have become a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. This happened to me at Asdas in Blyth and it could happen to you. Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking 18-year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping in the boot. They both start wiping your windscreen with a rag and Windolene, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy t-shirts. It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to another Asdas. You agree and they get in the back seat. On the way, they start having sex with each other. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and performs oral sex on you, while the other one steals your wallet. I had my wallet stolen last Tuesday, Wednesday, twice on Thursday, again on Saturday, and also yesterday." Aaaah! I am kiangs, me.
