I know. It\'s about as bright as listing the nutritional contents on a bottle of water. They think we\'re stupid.

And on the side of a bus it said \"may contain people\".
But the funniest one i heard about was - at the top of an Irish ladder it says \"stop\".
HASAWA health and safety at work act. I once declined the opportunity to employ an apprentice after he told me his dad was a health and safety inspector and thats true.

Thanks for sharing UNCLE ANDY - Angela here ! Loved the Pavoroti Clip very droll ! Brian is a very ample Man - Well proportioned and I like that in a MAN ! Loved the POEM and I agree we have gone H & S Mad. Things are a bit more normal in NZ. When I am massaging I need my bare hand because the Patients Texture speaks to my Fingers - Plastic gloves have NO TOUCH SENSORS ! When I was doing Biochemical Lab Work - There was a 10 page H & S document on H2O ! C\'est La Vie d\'H & S !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & JOYCE
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡

Loved this one. Had an experience at a dinner in our village hall recently. Digressing a bit but we started stacking the tables onto the trolleys as I\'ve been doing for over 10 years. . There are two types of tables and each have their own trolley BUT any table fits any trolley - the important thing is to put them away at the end of the function. I was putting them on the trolleys when someone came to me and very officiously told me I was doing it wrong and it really matters to get them right as they were designed to hold specific tables. I\'m afraid I responded by saying it really doesn\'t matter unless you suffer from OCD. A real jobs-worth.

Oohh, did it contain nuts, or fish? Maybe not, as it said \'MAY contain.....\'?! Best to be sure about these things. lol.
I run a whisky-making factory. The labels say \'may contain water\'. Actually, they do contain 95% water! heehee.

Mary had another lamb
I thought i\'d keep this random
And everywhere that Mary went
It joined her on her tandem
Good to have a bit of fun on here my freind.

You paint a great scene and one I recognise. I\'ve never been fishing and must say it doesn\'t really appeal to me but put me down in these surroundings with a sketch book and I\'m in my element. A fine write Andy.

A fine write at the River again Gold. I discovered a canal walk. In fact, a friend\'s back garden backs on to the canal at one point - very nice. I might go for walks along part of it again, though it\'s not local.

Education is something all too many regard as a thing of their past. Quite apart from covering new ground and learning new subjects or hobbies, covering \'old ground\' with an adult mind is most rewarding.

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ Ahhh the old empty wheelbarrow ploy ! The older the joke the better it is ! Like the SCOTSMAN who threw a cheque for £500 into Paddy\'s grave to repay a debt he owed him. His Widow saw the Action and thanked Jock profusely. *Sure Paddy had mentioned a debt but that cheque will sure come in handy when he meets Peter @ the Golden Gate* *Hows that ?* asked Jock. *Well* said Colleen *Hes not been a Bad Husband & Father & Grandfather ~ and he was saying just before he died* *If you thinking of a donation for my Requiem Mass ~ £500 should be enough to pay for 5 years off my Purgatory* Jock thanked COLLEEN but checked his account every day to see if his cheque had been drawn by EL BANCO DEL SPIRITO SANCTO in Madrid !
