I like ironing. Moaned to my mum about my school shirts at about 13 and she just threw one to me and said ' Do it yourself then ' so I did.

 

Went on a world cruise and it had a laundry room the size of a 5 a side pitch, and I was the only bloke in there most days. 

 

Wife couldn't work out why practically every woman on the ship was letting on to me or giving me a wave. Nearest I've ever felt to celebrity status.

 

One ancient old lady who made the Queen sound like Danny Dyer said to me ' Were you in the military, Dahling? '

I went to a couple of local boozers yesterday.
 

In the first one I didn’t enjoy it as I was freezing. None of my mates were cold. 

 

In the second one I didn’t enjoy it as I was boiling. None of my mates were hot.

 

I then went home depressed. Didn’t test it, but I probably wouldn’t have got an erection either. 
 

The bed was freezing. The wife was mad at me. I felt like crying. 

 

The male menopause is not to be sniffed at.

I particularly like walking around the food hall when I come back to the UK. A good day out.

3 pairs of beige chinos have arrived along with a pair of brown casual deck shoes. 

I've never been happier.

im close to the south coast, its always raining but not severely cold enough to warrant a turtle neck or cardigan.

[sir roger]

With 3 pairs of pants on you will have to keep your top half toasty, or as my old mum was fond of saying, you won't feel the benefit.

I used the word ‘antwacky’ when I was describing something to the kids the other day. I finally got to see the looks the little sods will give me when they want to get me sectioned.

Getting your bowel screening kit every 2 years I've just had the results back for my 2nd one , all clear again

Seeing this photo of one of my favourite ever unmentionablers.

 

If you’re not sure who it is, the carriage number is a clue.

 

Also, if you’re not sure who it is you’re a disgrace for not knowing who it is.

Blimey Dave, you've gone full old there.  And that's no way to talk about the lovely Mrs Tokyo either.
