Mad Addy : My ...


Recommended Posts

Some while back I was asked if I would be starting a new caption competition, but I thought that I had taken those as far as I could. But, I am happy to announce the publication of ...

"Mad Addy : My granddad's part in his downfall" by Spike (the real one, not that Terrance Milligan charlatan). This (non - existent) illustrated novella will be available for the very reasonable price of 3 shillings, thruppence, three-farthing for a limited time only.

Part 1.

"Smile Paddy"

"What's there to smile about? Some stupid fecking Cockney at Tilbury took all the Guinness off the wagon. And then loaded her up with bully beef."   ...

American General: Sieg Heil!

Monty: Sure. Wait....what?

MJK, the very idea that General Simpson would stand on the Siegfried Line giving a "Heil Hitter" salute is almost as ludicrous as suggesting that the lead singer of Bromley Dave and the Self-publicists would do the same thing from the back of an open top Mercedes in Victoria Station.

And where should we seek him?"

"They seek him here, they seek him there." As Ray Davies and his brother Dave sang. But they were from Muswell Hill, which is north of London, and they have nowt to do with Bromley Dave and the Self-publicists previously mentioned in this thread. It would be like thinking that Saga was from Copenhagen, and Martin was from Malmo.

the non-word "moobs".

I don't disagree, but you can find it in both the Oxford and Cambridge dictionaries.  Recent inclusions of course.

As discussed in another thread, no-one on the forum has admitted to having such appendages, so we need not trouble ourselves about them.

Part 3

I remember one day in the autumn Mr. Jorrocks came to see me and said. "I have special job for you, Paddy. The REME need every pontoon bridge between here and Flushing tested, so load up your wagon with whatever you have to hand, just make sure it's heavy OK." So off I went to down to Kattendijkdok, and got the six fattest prozzies I could find, assured them that I was a happily married Catholic man then away we went.

Anyways about halfway to Flushing I see a couple of Canadian fellas struggling with their Ford in the mud. So I wound down the window and gave 'em some advice. "You shoulda gotta Bedford, you dozy feckers!"

Paddy lifts his eyes from his Sporting Life, rolls them and says...

"Mr. Jorrocks will yer'se listen to that there fella, anyone would think that I was from Craggy Island instead of County Meath."
