» Best Films Ever
Wizard of Oz
This review of the beloved family film always makes me chuckle:
“Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again.”

Gun Run
My Dad was in the Army and every year they had a Gun Run, that is to say teams of Artillery Gunners would pull a field gun over a 12 mile road race.
Traditionally this was an all male endeavour but when I was about 10 they broke with tradition and a woman took part for the first time.
She was on the winning team and as they crossed the finishing line she stopped to take a breather and was promptly run over by the gun.
She was OK.

Dannii Minogue
I once met Dannii Minogue in a bar - she said "Hello" - and then I shit myself - I thought it was just going to be a fart but I followed through massively.

Nan's funeral
My Nan's funeral took place in Wales up a steep winding hill. The hearse arrived and the coffin was loaded then the car for her sons and daughters duly followed. Now my Dad and his siblings are a load of fatties and there are six of them so when the elongated limousine turned up my uncle turned and said to everyone "We'll soon find out if it's a cut and shut!"

Meths
Going on a cycling/camping holiday with mates many moons ago we were using a meths burning stove caled a Trangia. We went into Boots to buy some of the fuel which you had to buy from behind the counter as they wouldn't sell it to people they thought might be drinking it.
The nice lady asked:
"How many bottles do you need?"
My mate turned to me and said "I think two bottles will be enough for four of us don't you?"
The assistant then put them back under the counter and asked us to leave. Bemused we walked outside only to realise that she thought we were going to drink it. I know we were scruffy fuckers but I didn't think we looked that bad.
