I was treated to Jellied Eels a few years ago: I thought my brother-in-law
said "Jelly Deals", and thinking they were probably something like Jelly
Babies I naively accepted.

Well don't come to my house because I just rebuilt my patio and I don't want
anyone stealing it. My patio is made from strings stretched between trees
and my camping trailer with shopping bags tied on it. If you do want to
steal it then only take the shopping bags because if Derek doesn't let me
wash his car again then I won't be able to afford new string. |

You just need to guess where the question mark goes. I know it's real

I have. A suggestion where the question mark should go? But you might walk.

I hear you are coming to the party on Saturday too, Zan. I'm not
quite sure what Cyborgs drink. If we get in a couple of cases of
Duckhams Extra, will that be enough?

You know you love it.

I am not a cyborg. I am a machine. I have no mouth. All I will require is 5
liters of motor oil.

Yes. It makes my job easier.

For someone without a mouth you certainly talk a lot. Ah, I get it;
You use an alternative orifice. Makes sense.

Ok, 8 pints of Castrol SuperLube it is.

It rhymes with "secondary transmitter" anyway.
Also with Gary Glitter.

5 litres is *approximately* a gallon in real money. A gallon is eight
pints. We don't want none of that foreign continental *French* metric
system here. If imperial measurement was good enough for the Lord
Jesus, it's good enough for me.

I didn't. Care to.
