We have a bloke round her called Bollocky Bill... He, as a kid,was always talking a load of bollox.
 He is in his seventies now but still carries the nickname.. It is funny really because it was a swear word when we were kids but as we have got older it's just someones name.
Everything will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, its not the end.

Somebody in the pub.
Oh bugger. I hadn't realised it was you I was talking to in the pub when I let that slip Brian. I was expecting somebody carrying a lot less weight and looking much fitter after all that aerobics, cage fighting, and running you do.

I obviously didn't mean everybody either - just everybody I know.

I thought I recognised you. You are the man who rents a house from Birmingham City Council for 50p a year.

I doubt whether, even given recent inflation, I have even handled £5,000,000 let alone possessed it all at once, except in foreign currency, but I think that was Dinars.

Come on Brian - do you think I'm a sponger? I don't need their money just a nice house where I can bypass the meter and grow my weed in the loft. I'm not greedy.

Bryan i think you should change the title of your thread to
'Theres a lot on Money in the Midlands'
“Life may not be the party we hoped for, but as we are already here we may as well dance”
