Put 'em In The Stocks

Thought we could start a thread of who we would like to see in the stocks.Anybody annoyed you lately??

I will start off with a little westie called Belle,come downstis this morning to see this and then this.
In the night she had smelt Jim had forgotten food was in his bag and she had a feast.She is quite choosy though,she only licked out the middle of the custard tarts.

She was just looking after her health. You know pastry is not good for the blood pressure.

That will be it Mike LOL

Who would I put in the stocks, Blair and Brown. Worth chucking a few house bricks at.

I agree with TB but I'm not so sure about Gordon. I think he did his best but he had a bad team and in the end his best wasn't good enough. Not that I voted for him, but there again none of us did. Sorry to say I don't think much of any of the ones who are cutting each others throats to get the job either. I'll reserve judgement on my candidate for the stocks for now.

Talking Historical Figures. I would put Guy Fawkes in the stocks...FOR FAILING

SB

I think Guy Fawkes suffered a little worse than the stocks for failing miserably in his little part of the plot.

No excuse

Laugh, laugh, laugh!!!!! Fairly minimum input and resulting in a major whupping!!!! Laugh, laugh!!!

My (off the top of my head) suggestions for the stocks:

Anyone involved in the production / execution of any form of 'reality television' programme..... Particular emphasis being put on the likes of Jeremy Kyle..... though I would personally push for some form of 'execution', rather than mere, physical reprimand in his case.....

The bloke from the 'Go Compare' adverts!!!!! (In the stocks with a 'Scolds Bridle' firmly fixed, so he can't blummin sing!!!!!)

People who read my 'Polite Notice - Strictly No Callers At The Door' sign, yet still knock and open a conversation with: "It's okay - I did read your sign, but....."!!!!!

Arrgghhhhhh!!!!!

Regards,

Nick

Interestingly I was listening to the radio and they were talking about the power of advertising as the Go Compare AD come up as an example of the most irritating but the most remembered.....they have had huge business because of this ad.

Nick

What you need is a very large dog and a beware of the dog sign. Believe me they will read that and take note.

Now its the other way around with me, it annoys the hell out of me that they insist on putting every little thing in a bag. They even have different size carrier bags for people who only buy small items.

Certain shops assistants have gotten used to me growling at them now and don't offer me a bag. They know that I will ask if I want one.

I think my wife is making a collection of these lifetime bags, we seem to have a cupboard full of them. She annoys me sometimes because if one gets holed or breaks she sticks it in the recycling bag. When I ask why she doesn't take it back to the shop for replacement as you are supposed to because thats the whole idea of lifetime bags. She just says "its too much trouble" You cant win.

It's time that plastic bags were banned and replaced with paper ones, at least they rot in landfill. When I am asked if I want a bag, I usually say no thanks I'vv'e got enough to carry.
