June 2007

Rick and Hamish go to the Library
The Regulars were delighted when Rick Francis and Hamish, two more upstanding members of the community you could not hope to meet, decided to support their local services and take a trip to the library to further educate themselves, should this be possible.
It was a veritable joy to see their excited little faces as they tucked themselves into a corner of The Local and settled down for a good read.
However, it was at this point, on observing the reading matter in question, that the rest of The Regulars realised that would be the last time they should be allowed to go to the library unsupervised.














Time to call it a day
The Regulars felt it was time they took it upon themselves to have a quiet word with Rick Francis...













Who's Who?
Definitely not to be confused with the "32,000 short biographies, continually updated, of living noteworthy and influential individuals" as let's face it, how many of these are likely to be resident in Barton-upon-Humber? (Lord Dudley excepted but The Regulars could only dream of reaching the echelons of his social class and a bank holiday trip tp Skegness in a caravan but therein lies a whole new story to be told...)

But, more to the point, The Regulars excelled themselves when Rick Frances, on a particularly onerous day down the chemical plant (think Homer Simpson) managed to happen on a quiz site that presented The Regulars with the best part of a whole week's 'hard work avoidance'.
So, dear readers, from a selection of the answers to the questions can you decide Who's Who?

22. How many times did you fail your driver's test?
Once, now will have to do it the braille way, like Billy Idle (for the uninitiated, Billy once declared down The Local that he thought the bobbly bits on the horn on his steering wheel were so blind people could find it. The penny still didn't drop when he then considered how blind people would know, whilst they were all out driving, that there was a hazard for them to need the horn).

As if this hadn't caused them enough hard work avoidance, The Regulars eagerly sought out further surveys but decided to abandon the practice on realising the serious effect these were having on Hamish's Tourettes:

10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? No need for condoms here, Hamish.

Quick Learner
The Regulars were amazed to observe that Hamish, once the fax-loving techno-virgin of The Local, had made astounding progress once Billy Idle finally got round to connecting him to the world wide web and could only marvel at the speed with which he had created his own website:
It then became apparent that he had learned such knowledge on his secret weekend retreats although, to be fair, The Regulars had never really believed a grown man could truly spend so much time at Butlins...
