our accountant complained to my bloody MD ..bloody awimb..and mum jokes

[Snin]

the old fart thought i was being insulting! yesterday as I was leaving the office he was chatting to the lady bookkeeper and was going on a bout his new Jag , lovely shape , engine blah blah..then he said he thoguht it looked best from behind..

as I walked past I said "your mum looks best from behind" :hehe: now looking back..he's probably late 50's / 60..so his mum may not look great from any angle as probably pushing up daisys.. but a complaint ?! old cock

[Berni]

This is always a potentially serious error, tbh.

[Snin]

:homer: i admitted it was not my finest moment and I will apolgise for any offence

[Peter]

[Berni]

Besides, he drives a Jag. We all know what uptight, status anxious ****ers they are.

[Snin]

and he supposedly once told the book keeper woman at an office party a few years back before I joined that him and his wife are/ were swingers.. :puke: .. hes sort of a weird , meek , oddball.. and I was also having a go at him for not working out my commission properly.. so yes he's a**** ..hes external and only comes in couple of times a month. MD just said best I try and do offsite visits when hes next in :-)

Unless one is vaguely aware of the whole "your mum" genre of comedy I can see how he may have been a little annoyed.

I've had complaints lodged before for simply offended people never mind their dear and possibly departed mothers.

So close to Mothers Day as well.

I gave his Jag a good kicking yesterday. He'll be all upset.

[Luis Anaconda]

but he does sound like a right ****

[Berni]

Do we know what p is driving these days, btw? Obviously, it can't be the Rover, since it must be long dead.

[Berni]

I don't think there's much of a processing phase between him thinking something and it coming out of his gob.

By the way, I was reminded last night that I saw a pic of you and E when she was little on your glw's Flickr stream and I had absolutely no idea when it would have been taken.

I was in a restaurant and you were wearing a dark jacket with epaulettes. Any memory of this?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

We went for lunch there for some reason.

She must have been jolly young then.

[Berni]

She'd have been seven, I guess. Blimey. It's a lovely pic, though.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

She looks awfully cute, I must say.

Unless you're combining them with a military uniform and dark glasses in a mid-period Gadaffi stylee, and crucially are also a dictator of a wealthy african state, then surely this cannot be acceptable sartorial behaviour.

Did you wear your medals too?

[Classic Jorge]

Shine on you crazy welsh diamond

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Sorry, and all that.

[Classic Jorge]

Anyway, you've a ling established predilection for pseudo military jackets

[Berni]

Little did she know. ;-)

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I refuse to take lessons in style from a man who wears a flat cap and wellies to work.

[Classic Jorge]

Most people see them as some sort of conjoined twin affair too

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Classic Jorge]

Hats make me look retarded, it's a sad fact.

I could be looking like John Hamm, sharp as you like, drop a hat on my head and I will look like Benny from Crossroads.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

In the case of such excellence one can even forgive the fact that it's a pun.

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Berni]

Jack would have loved that one. Once he'd had it explained to him.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Stephen looked sharply round, saw the decanter, smelt to the sloth, and cried, "Jack, you have debauched my sloth."

[Berni]

As I recall, it doesn't end well for the sloth. :-(

[barrybueno]

it just doesn't work

[Peter]

Running off to the boss to tell tales is pretty pathetic.
