Cheap!!!

Cheap

Obviously a man ahead of his time....

 

Yes but what a fine head of skin!!

 

My mum worked at the laundrette and stole Arnold Swartnagers suit ,--It fit perfectly.

 

Nah Frosty your thinking of Tom Arnold.

Poida

 

Walrus is wearing one of Charlie Chaplins hand me downs.

Who the hell is Tom Arnold ?---gimme a movie( film)

 

your kidding. right? What kind of ***k brained idiot thought that one up, 'spect he was too busy counting beans. "..ha'peny worth of tar".

 

Frosty, Rossanna's ex.

Can't think of a movie.

Oh, Oh,- right got ya,--Mmm dont think he did one, big bloke,liked bowling and always wore a red kinda lumberjack shirt.

Na I dont look like him, (pssssst people say I look like Eryl Flynn I dont see it myself but who am I to argue. Actually as I get older,--- errrrr mature, I look more like sir Antony Hopkins,---so they say?)

 

Cheap

No, no Frosty - fair play you look exactly like Eryl Flynn...(he was one of Santa's little helpers...actually a leprechaun who had emigrated to Hollywood...) But nothing like Errol Flynn.

 

To get back on subject ---cheap. Yes I like cheap beer, I am drinking some now look--slurp slurp--burp----ahhhh lovely. It not actually cheap as in guality it is cheap because I live on a duty free island at the top of malacca straits. just a tad under Thailand and bit up from Pinang. Anyway -slurp- its good for me here.

4 of us went out last night for a meal ,--no i didnt pay for it, anyway we had fish and curry and vegies and peppered beef and oh all sorts of stuff.

I had a bucket of beer. Thats a bucket with ice and 5 beers in it.

I believe looking over my mates shoulder it came to about 30 dollar, thats US dollar.

So not so cheap after all --slurp.

 

Frosty, you must be drunk, you said you didn't pay for it, and then followed by saying it was $30 US so not cheap.

If you didn't pay for it, it's cheap regardless of the cost.

If I go to a party where the beers provided. I buy a $10 present and drink $50 worth of beer. Now that's cheap.

Not the beer me!

Poida

 

Jeeees 50 dollars of beer, what the f$% --do you spill most of it or what?

Well I dont worry about that side of things too much I know that if im invited then its my bubbling personality that people enjoy and not that I bring the value of my drinking expectations. Unlike Walrus who was invited to his friends 60th birthday recently starved himself all day so he could stuff more food in his face.

How many times have I asked shall I bring something,-- Oh no just bring yourself they say ha ha. ( is this the drivel thread?) oooopps

 

Yeah well if they say, yes bring something, I bring one of me mates.

Sheez, now we need a "dribble" thread!

 

That we do, KB
The earlier part of this thread reminded me of browsing around a certain marine supply shop at the other end of the lake.... I was shocked to see a one-inch SS shackle listing for $32 or so, compared to the $4 that the comparable galvanized part goes for at the normal hardware store. SS is certainly not eight times the price of galvanized steel, is it? Tiller extension handles for the outboard were over a hundred bucks. This morning I installed a very similar one I fabricated in three hours out of $10 worth of aluminum. Works just as well at less than a tenth of the price, and with a coat of Tremclad it looks just as nice.
So yes, there are ways to beat the price-gouging demons. The trick has got to be, figuring out which low-cost options aren't going to cost you in other ways.
