i was at the PB concert last night when i nipped out for a look at the sky with all the other skywatchers, i was approached and asked if i was going to see the bay city rollers when they came? a discussion ensued as to which version of the band it was, needless to say its the wrong one, or the right one depending on where you stand, BCR fan? wrong one, Les McKewan fan? right one. next the person told me the Back street boys were also coming to the town, surely not i thought and told him he was talking out of an orifice he usually sat on. no he insisted, he was told be ****** * that the backstreet BOYS were coming to town. i finished looking at the sky, hjad another quick look so i didn't need to come back out later, plus i wanted to hear the maurice on the fiddle, simply amazing wot a player, genius, a master of his craft. anyway second look at sky finished i went back inside, where i came across ***** at the back of the hall, never one to waste an opportunity i had a wee blethert then asked him, "******* just told me that you told him the backstreet BOYS were coming to the town"says i, add the punchline yourselves, i thought it was priceless, especially in the tone with which it was delivered and as an indication of the sense of the person that told me originally. laugh? the first three tables tutted me!!!!!

:?

Sorry, perhaps you could put that in English?

Looks a good thread, held in there until the end but unfortunately I lost it. Perhaps stupid - but followed it about being outside, told the Backstreet Boys were coming to town and then lost it completely.

i would have laughed and thats all that matters, read it, its self explanatory, i won't be naming names and thats all thats left out. ok so substitute smoke for look at sky, there you go. person a told me person b had told person a that the BSB were coming, i asked person b, telling him that person a said that he, person b, had told him, person a, got it? person b, said its not the backstreet BOYS, its the.........................

maybe you have to know the two people but i'm not shedding any light on who person b is? or person a might mop the flerr with me, if he could reach this high!!!!

That would be misuse of the moderation tool so glad, for some reason, you couldn't do it.

Back to the thread - got it now. Oopss sorry but I was being genuine there.

Now realise what you are on about - playing Vic on 30th May? :oops:

no idea, i'll assume you have the drift of it, its probably noted elsewhere but since you have a date you are probably on the right track. its only funny if you know the two people, he was adament that they were coming that i got caught up in trying to convince him he must be mistaken that i never stopped to twig the real answer, so he has no idea of the laugh he gave me and person B

as for editing your post? al i would have needed to do was justify it, not outwith my ability surely? think i could talk most people into believing i could justify just about anything, as long as its not he wife, it takes me all my time to justify my very existance there.
