Talking On bended knee Mk II

Well, they closed the last one, and as the nights are drawing in, what else is there to do?

On second thoughts, don't answer that one!

Well, I was wondering how long it would be before the "son of Bended Knee" appeared - although my money was on Buzz to get things going, but well done to you Adge!

We could always use this thread to post the scandal from next weekend's party.

I thought it could serve as an effective communication tool for the 40% of the unit we all no longer see!
(I suppose we could treat it like a toilet though, and fill it up with useless 5hite)

Can't keep a good thread down I see.

So who is the new outing team now that B watch is no more?

Going to catch up with my "old" buddies at the Y watch Xmas dinner next week... might even have a surprise up my sleeve so be there or be square.

Still more new names I do not recognise, surely they can't all ne from ISZ? Or has mokey boy been registering yet another load of different user names again?

Where are the Y Watch lads off to after the lunch then? Is the plan still to meet us Z watch boys in town somewhere?

Hey Dad

You have anything to do with that Xmas decoration of the snowwoman with the big boobies that's at the end of your road?

Snow is on its way chaps/esses, this week could see the first issue of certificates this year!

Xmas bash stories? Well.....nah couldn't!

Not again!! I'm away down south this afternoon and have to return on Boxing Day as Mrs NumberOne is back to work on the 27th! Looks like I might earn a proper certificate this year

Xmas bash stories - oh yes you can!

No 1 - maybe this season you'll get a pass not a fail!

Talk about cold hands!

I too may be in recepit of a certificate this yr, going south on the 23rd, returning on the 26th. Hopefully herself will be feeling strong after being fed relentlessly, and help to push.

UR no 1, you've got another 2WD advantage over most of us, so it's inexcusable for you to get caught out.

By heck D8 you been past Dads gaff as well, the likeness is astounding, only yours doesn't flash on and off! Is it advertising some new service avilable in rural Aberdeenshire? Well suppose it will make a change from the sheep!

having seen D8's picture (very good btw) I think I can solve the mystery of ze flashing snowperson wiz ze big boobies....

Maybe the Council have decided to put it there because so many of the drivers along that stretch are a bunch of wahnkers

Cheerio
Nah you're all right mate, I'm off for Crimbo! Working the New Year though, bu*ger!!! Anyway about time I relived that snowy night on the Tullos Straight. Never been flashed at yet, my licence is untainted by points. Probably more down to luck than good planning....

DD
Hope you weren't including me in that "so many are a bunch of wankhers"!!!

Scott
She's not fallen off yet, still stuck up the lampost. Or is it the lampost that is.....no don't go there!

No1

Good to see the Ice Station's unofficial chat page has reached page 2. Hopefully this will show the Colt/Norwich lot how to run a thread.

Nice picture. How's your head and stomach?

Hey Odi

Tell us more, has D8 been driving the big white porcelain truck again? Did he manage to get away without breaking any limbs this time?

Oh dear Driver 8.......

No wasn't including you - was thinking more of the likes of the Beamer driver who managed 2 complete 360's before ending up in the field yesterday! (THINKS:-perhaps he was too busy looking at the big boobies!)

Greetings from South o' the border, where (sorry to disappoint you Buzz) the snow melted overnight - looks like I'll have to wait a bit longer for that elusive certificate. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

Is Driver8's gastric disaster a result of the Xmas Bash - still haven't heard any scandal from that yet - come on lads...
