Hello. Following its roaring success on the old 606 (winner of six Luckies*) I thought I'd provide a space on 606v2 for you to post any irrelevant little things you fancy sharing.

I'll start: I've always had trouble with the line 'Love grows where my Rosemary goes.' If they'd chosen another name like Anne or Susan there'd be no problem, but rosemary's a herb so it could be 'Love goes where my rosemary grows.'

Breaker, I appreciate your sense of humour, but I don't get the reference. Alan Border? What's the other bit?

Sunil "Sunny" Gavaskar (former great Indian opening batsman)

A mate was joking with me the other day how some bloggers with poor spelling often write 'Gavasker' and I somehow got 'Capsicum' out of it.

I might go on ESPNcricinfo later and try and slip it in somewhere.

So it's a "had to be there" joke?

This is how legends are formed. A slip of the tongue which finds it's way to the front page of the Times of India. That's my goal.

day becomes the night, night becomes the day

Blydi take it easy on those drugs Jim, or they'll be the death of you.

blood on the streets... it's up to my knees...

Prone to a little exaggeration, are we Jimmy? Those drugs again...

BREAK ON THROUGH AW iiiiiiieeeeeeaaaahhhhhoooooyyyyyy

You're just making up nonsensical words now Jim. Drugs aren't big and they're not clever.

Iiiiii found my looooove... on a blue Sundaaaay

No Jim, that was obviously during the LA brushfires, buddy!

Break on through to the other side

Well you seemed to manage that ok Jim

What has Jim Morrison done to deserve all of this, he's dead FFS!

Vermicous kernids.

Dont know. But you started it!

Then you joined in!

Protruding worms?

Yeah, its easy to kick people when they are down (as opposed to high, eh Jim)

What's worse than finding a vermicous kernid in your apple?

Finding half a vermicous kernid.

yuk... that's put me off my giant leech soup.

That's not in your soup

oh you mean the rooster testicles?

Good source of zinc.


And chicken sperm.

Yeah, I know. Are you eating anything interesting at the minute?

Erm, had shepherds pie earlier, made with real lamb mince and my wife's homemade chutney.

No testicles or leeches. However she used apples from my parents garden, so they may have had some vermicous kernids in. Looked that up earlier, it's a Henry Porter reference.

Henry Porter has protruding worms, between those and the hogwarts he should really go and see his doctor.

Homegrown worms? He's a walking zoo.

That cut on his head keeps flaring up and all.

Dampens my optimism for home-made mushroom and crouton fondue

Why? Worms have excellent taste. They will only eat the best apples. You don't eat game until you've hung it and the maggots start, before then it's too tough.

Why do you think I make meal worm pizza bases - they taste so much better than flour ones.

Ground or sewn?

Ground.

Dry them first. Then mortar & pestel. Add some crushed cockroach - I find it gives more flavour. Beetles and grasshoppers optional although the kids like the crunchy 'nutty' taste.

Protein overload!

No, not really... bite size ones or just use as a spread on cracker biscuits

do you really want to hurt me?...

Yes, George, as it happens.

Karma Karma Karma Karma.... Karma Chameleon

Boy, the poor lizard hasn't got a chance, George.

loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams, red, gold and green...

Are you saying you'd like a bit of Rastafarian man sausage George?

they come and go...

Now you're simply being disgusting George

You've got the wrong joke George, it's the Panda that eats shoots and leaves.

and the ubiquitous antipodean opossum.

Drinking game! Anybody fouls up a lyric or is slow drinks two fingers!

All together now!

10,000 ubiquitous antipodean opossums sitting on a wall,
10,000 ubiquitous antipodean opossums sitting on a wall,
but if one ubiquitous antipodean opossum should accidentally get shot,
there'll be 9,999 ubiquitous antipodean opossums sitting on a wall.

9,999 ubiquitous antipodean opossums sitting on a wall...

It's even worse if you have a lisp...

We've got one for Dublin, Subsbench came up with it, although it doesn't translate well. Everytime the Welsh coverage has 'crossing the gain line' 2 fingers, a grammatical error 4 fingers, or Dr Gwyn Jones invents a new word, down it.

No wonder you're always swimming in it.

The grain in Spain grows mainly on the plane

Flippin' burgers... somewhere just off Route 66

The road to Hull

Is paved with good vibrations

I'm talking about red carnations

Pause for celebrations; the cup overfloweth with the milkshake of human apathy.

As flat as my Auntie's pancakes....

Nice and shiny like a puppy's ball bags
