This week's Freecycle highlights

Offered - a sofabed, but not just any sofabed. This one has a tiny hole in the fabric making it unique from other identical sofabeds made by the same
manufacturer. Throw a throw over it. Put a cat, dog or relative on it.
It does it all.

Wanted - Myself and my wife are 6'5 and 6'3 and want some really old trashed clothes so we can dress as beggars soon.

Mobility-Aid Breadboard - With its convenient breadcatching spike, this breadboard is ideal for people with a dodgy hand or crucifiction complex. Comes complete with easy-pour trail of blood.

We all need a complex or two to spice up life. Thanks for visiting. Have already been over to your blog and will be back and commenting.

Screwy Louie, crucifiction with one hand on the breadboard! How utterly painful and so messy for the bread, which will sop up the blood really well. The kids will probably refuse to eat it, though. They won't think it's ketchup.

I have plenty of those sofas here. Never thought about putting a relative on them.

Sweet I: Bread and blood? My God, it's satanic ritual time over on this blog....

CJ: I'm not clear whether the relatives are there in a decorative or functional capacity, but do give it a go and let me know.

Sure I left a comment for you somewhere yesterday, Om. What happened to it I wonder? It was all about the value of shaggy dog blogs I think... and was meant as a compliment, so I hope you didn't delete it.

But what's all this talk of crucifiction? I'd always thought it was spelt with an x - but might be wrong of course; and hesitate to suggest it, lest there should be some clever little joke attached to it that I just haven't caught on to.....

I'm a bit like that.

IB: You did leave a comment but not on this blog, I think. And I loved it. I would never delete any of your comments (unless you did a Mutley extreme - and I've only ever failed to publish one of his). Your spelling is better than mine. You are totally correct about crucifixion with an 'x' - I could make some feeble pun about fiction versus fixion but don't think it would deceive you for a moment. My spelling used to be very good: it's declining, though. Early onset decrepitude or late onset dyslexia. Not sure which.

And not forgetting the touch-type-writer missing an 's' - oh o ueful when writing about a hitty day...

Omega Mum said...

Potty Mummy: What a good idea - you are clearly a woman of innate refinement to think of such an object. Do you have such a typewriter or would you like me to look out for one on Freecycle - it's bound to be on offer, sooner or later.

Potty Mummy said...

But urely you can tell that I have uch an item in my poeion already?

Omega Mum said...

Now you come to mention it, Potty Mummy.....

I Beatrice said...

Glad to know about that OM. I'd hate to have thought there was yet aother blogism the point of which I'd totally missed! I've only just caught on to lol for example - thanks to you. I thought it a bit of a let-down, as a matter of fact - had been imagining something much more arcane than that.

And omigod, in the 2nd sentence above I sound like that pedant who took Churchill to task over a split infinitive! In reply to which Churchill apparently spluttered,among other things:

"Up with this I will not put!"

I've only ever deleted one of Mutley's too, you know! Though for all the song and dance he made of it at the time, you'd have thought it was a hundred..

Omega Mum said...

IB: In Mutley's case I think it counts as tough love.
