Rainbow's tip for the day

[rainbowskye]

Even when your family have conspired to break the 2 pint Pyrex jug that is Very Useful for all sorts of things and you are distractedly busy and not thinking about what you are saying terribly much, it is still probably not a good idea to ask the (somewhat flat-chested) shop assistant the question: 'Have you got any big jugs?'...

Did the shop have any? Were they Wazza?

[rainbowskye]

They had plastic ones...
Go on, I've looked that up in Urban Dictionary and I'm still none the wiser!

I used to work with a girl named Julie who came out with such things so regularly that they were known as Julie-isms in the office.

Two examples will suffice to explain.

1. Looking all around for a 3.5" floppy diskette and not finding one, she called out to a colleague: "Brendan - I need you. Have you got a three and a half inch floppy?"

2. On returning from lunch with a sodden foot due to a hole in the sole of one of her shoes, she leaned back in her chair, stuck both feet on her desk about three feet apart and asked the general office - "Can you see my hole from there?"

I rest my case.

Perhaps it goes with the name...!

It's frightening to think of what I might do for my next trick really...

[christhegoth]

Just keep us informed :D

does conjure up the image of a somewhat unusual but probably dubious tattoo :D

[rainbowskye]

Involving kitchenware?

[thatmakesmemad]

pint capacity measure down the side of large jugs :D

I wonder if vin_petrol has read this yet, and if that would break his brain a little (like the boobies vs French episode)?

I think the whole of Wolverhampton must know you by reputation if not by sight, so she probably wasn't at all surprised :-P
