        Hi all, things have settled a bit this morning. Mrs Handy is speaking to me again. Lady Hooray is Icy and watching us like a Hawk. I feel like I am walking on eggshells. Not a word from any of the "Family".

        Just had a quick look in on the thread. Thanks for all your kind comments. I will post more on both stories later tonight.

        Off to the Vets now with a poorly Black Lab.

        Regards all, Handy

                Hi all, Situation is still fragile.

                Today Lady Hooray thawed a bit, seems there's nothing anyone can do about his Van till he comes back.

                She Went on If his Lordship was still here you would be out on you ear by now.

                True. When we took the job and were living up in North Yorks our Free house was valued at 750K. When Mrs Handy saw the place she said she would kill for the Job.

                Now unlike here it was very private and couldn't be seen from the big house. We had only been there a few months when we had son no 2 to stay while he cleaned up. After 2 days I had to take him home to do a deal to keep him from going cold turkey.

                Then Son John the Con (did 4 for tying to smuggle smack into one of one of HMP's and got banged up with Jeffery Archer)
                Was beaten up by his girlfriend and ended up homeless. He was with us for 2 months and moved the Girlfriend in with us.

                The first thing he did was case the area. They wouldn't get up until after 1 pm each day and only after shooting up on speed. Then they would spend the rest of the day popping downers. Then I had to watch him like a hawk to stop him from going out on the rob.

                We ended up paying them to leave.

                Straight after Trapfly broke up with the new wife of 2 years.
                After a week he moved in a Girlfriend then dumped her and in the same day moved in his Ex and Son.

                Lord Hooray told me we have no problem with friends and family visiting. A week is normally enough. But when they come and live here, don't rise until mid day, cost you in keeping them and me as a Taxpayer to support them I get a little pished off.

                If you insist on keeping them here I am going to charge you rent.
                Well he did have a point.

                Long Story, I went without a car for 6 months because I had to use what I had saved for a new car to send Trapfly and Family on their way. He then Stung DD's Father (1/2 sister) and his Gran for money for a caravan. They split up again less than 2 weeks later.

                That's only a 10th of how its been over the last ten years.

                They won't go to there real Father for Help. He left when the eldest was 12. Mrs Handy brought up 4 boys single handed.

                He is a Doorstep Loan shark. (now in his 70's but still working).

                Why won't they go to him? 1500% interest and his mates will collect for him.

                And Still Mrs Handy supports them like a Lioness looking after her Cubs.

                Some Adventure?

                Regards, Handy

                  She could report it to the plods, telling them she overheard two Arabian "gents" walking away from it and discussing what they'd do; she could not make out much, but she did hear "jihad", "inshallah", "kufir" and "boom!".

                  Alternatively, a tractor could be used to tow/drag it to some place where it would be less of an eyesore and where the local children could use it to practice their graffiti skills; once it has been adorned with slogans promoting man-boy love, I dare say that it won't appear near you again.

                  Why do you call him "Trapfly"?

                  Does he walk around with his mouth open as if he hoped insectivorous sustenance might fly in, or did he have an unfortunate accident with his zip?

                    Hi all, No Clogs it's short for Trapeze Flyer. That's what he was doing when he started in circus but he kept dropping his partners

                      Kept dropping?

                      After he'd dropped one or two, I'd be astounded if he had many volunteers for a new partner.

                        His last partner was a lovely girl, a contortionist, he's been twisted ever since they split up. (took them a while).
                        True, she was the clumsiest person you have ever met. Within 5 minutes of him bringing her to meet his mum, she spilt red wine over an antique table cloth and then broke a plate. She used to be one of the girls rolling down the silks on the Millennium Dome advert.

                        Anyway just so you know who we are talking about, from a picture from the public domain, meet Trapfly.

                        He has been asked to take part in a channel 4 documentary to be shown this winter. At the moment he is training a SheMale
                        (I've seen the Photos, Stunning, Mrs Handy said she wouldn't mind a body like that), to Perform on the Chinese Pole. (Clogs There is a leader for a comment - Just don't get us banned )

                        Anyway to get back on track, this morning Handy was feeling so low because of whats been going on in his life. It's years since I was in such a black place. I re- read the first couple of pages of this thread, it started of as a happy light heart'ed place. My aim was to give folks who were having a hard time a giggle about the Adventures (mishaps) of yours truly.

                        I realize that those who used to read my twaddle probably now find it like listening to Lenard Cohen without taking prozac first.

                        I decided that It was time to give things a rest for a while.

                        Things are much improved at the Hall, Mrs Handy has had an LBM Moment and suddenly come to the conclusion that Trapfly has taken the pish, telling her one thing and me another.

                        At lunchtime she announced she was going to see Lady Hooray and Bury the Hatchet. Now this scared me because she always does what she says. The only proble is where was she going to stick the hatchet.

                        Anyway things are much improved, I hope it stays this way for a while.

                        If anyone needs me just give me a call. I will still be around.

                        Regards all, Handy (again).

                          By tomorrow, I may have another camera with which to play. That is, I'll have another camera if I hear the postman knock or if he calls me on my mobile - if not, I'll have to collect it from the local Post Office next week.

                          This is what I'm getting. It's only another 9MP bridge camera, but it takes external flash and the shutter button is threaded for a cable release:

                            The camera arrived this morning, at about 8:15.

                            Now all I need to do is to RTFM and set it up properly.

                              Regards, Handy
