Calming the (in)famous Yorkshire Wallet

[mr B]

the problem might not be the wallet, it could have been sparked off by the re-fill printer ink, thus imajane the embarasment whilst handing out brown 20's , as for the wallet to-day its in Ramsdens .....Not the pop shop, BB's at Harry's getting his 'chips & bits'

Ay up!

Are you lot trying to get me killed?

It even went for Mrs BB when she decided to read one of the books weighing it down. Mind you, once smitten with the Mighty Black Country Handbag (it usually has a paving slab or two in it!) calmed it down. A bit. It now hides from Mrs BB.

Oooooooh, the waste of that good whiskey!

Better hurry then Its shutting down.
If it hasn't already.

Once it used to be alright then it was bought out by Granada and went down hill ever since.
Went in one Christmas when working on the railway nearby and bought 50 "one of each"
On the bosses credit card when a job was over running. Bloke behind me was not impressed.

The original Harry's as gone, being ripped apart as we type. BB check if you dare! a ladies handbag should always contain an Accrington Red-- edges sharp as a Stanley knife.

This is what you want BB;

The famous red slab as attached to Avro Vuclan B.2 XH558. It's mounted in the nose cone, replacing the radar equipment and weighs enough to keep the 100 or so ton tin triangle (or 'aluminium overcast' to our American cousins) level in flight.

It weighs a lot more than it looks!

lets hope TomF's new puppy dont find the wallet

I hope not - Lass RIP - that wallet takes no prisoners.

Are you lot trying to get me killed? Investigate the contents of Mrs BB's handbag? Its even more vicious than the wallet!

Oh, and then there's Mrs BB to contend with......

I told you all last year,you must have short memories

Order a stack of books or whatever for Christmas in good time, tell the wife to spread them around the family who give her the money to give back to you to pay the bill when it comes, then you get what you want for Christmas instead of unwanted rubbish

I got 5 books total cost about £55 no rubbish and quess what, thanks from the kids cos they had no idea what to buy me.

Now remember this for next year or your next birfcake day

Spot on. I have been doing this for years.

Not only does it get me exactly what I want, but the family breathe a sigh of relief and think 'great, that is one more present I dont have to worry about'.

Ay up!

Mrs BB always asks, some time around the end of September, what I'd like and there it is on Chringle day! The Post have delayed me suburbans this year, though.

This system always works, so we both get what we want. It came unstuck one year when I saw a book, Mrs BB said "See what Santa brings - now forget about it." I did. So did Mrs BB. And I've still no idea what that book was, several years on.....

Was it "The Psychology of the Yorkshire Wallet - a treatise on the trauma of its opening". by B. Rokenfingers?

[Blink Bonny]

Ay up, giner!

No, it was definitely summat abart railways...... she thinks it was summat to do wi' railway modelling and it was on Bill Whats-his-face's stall..... this is a direct quote from Mrs BB ....... we both thought that'll be excellent! Then forgot.

PS -

You could have the treatise written a famous French scholar:

Opening the unopenable by M Issing-Fingers.

The original French text is recommended, if only for its educational value re French swearwords!

Ay up!

The wallet has gone native. It has been stalking the borders in our garden ever since I had to buy a new tyre for my car.

Dunno if the bruises have faded yet. If it can't run away, it bites me!
