    @bones I thought we agreed not tell anyone about that, you said you were going to the doctors!

    @bones yes being your pimp is a full time job, but still I expect my workers to have standards.

    @victor-meldrew I'm missing the reference I suspect ... No I'm not a Samantha, nor do I work for the BBC...

    @r-l

    Responding to your (intentional?) double-entendre....

    It's from "I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue". She's the fictional scorer/record librarian who's the subject of very filthy and funny double-entendres from Jack Dee

    If anything, I would have hoped that would teach you to watch your phrasing!

    @bones if we all watched our phrasing the fern wouldn't be the chuckle it is.

    Are you referring to the Alaskan white owl or the modulation technique I can (just) recall was used in the ancient telecoms systems I train on as a spotty teenager...?

    A reference to my favourite Discworld character by Terry Pratchett: The Librarian.

    His vocabulary is limited to varying emphasis on "Ook".

    Ahh. now I understand 🙂

    Samantha is more than just a librarian though as Humphrey Lyttleton explains:

    "Samantha has just started keeping bees, and already has three dozen or so. She says she's got an expert handler coming round to give a demonstration. He'll carefully take out her 36 bees... and soon have them flying round his head"

    Kind of happy to not be playing rugby tomorrow due to COVID after waking up with a sore lower back - training up second rows is a tough gig and sometimes they push early and twist the scrum machine. Ugh. Also recovering from this MCL to a degree.

    I'm stuck on 95 caps. Last Saturday was meant to be 96 but one of the opposition got flattened trying to make a tackle, and needed an ambulance 🙄 so we had to abandon the game.

    You made the field? Surely would count?

    @booboo need to replay the game (abandoned before halftime) so there will be another team sheet when it is done.
