Good old SA.

A nice cheap Commode for someone.

Hmmm, doesn't Phil have a Commode?

Not sure, but I think Lakes wants one (with auto wash).

Yes, but his was a later model.

Looks like the grips weren't his only vice.

Doggie 1 · **Reply #7: July 23, 2013, 14:35:26**

But he was multi-talented.

rustynutz · **Reply #8: July 23, 2013, 14:42:15**

I thought he was a bit of a crank!

I guess we both appreciate a gripping story.

And you're both used to clenching your teeth.

There must be a lonely steering wheel somewhere

I was playing golf today at our local course. Joining us was a number of members of the SA Police Golf Club. General discussion led me to believe this character is well known to police.

So he drives in well known circles...

Well, I'm pretty sure neither of us would prefer to be munching a pillow.

I just looked at it and Laughed,I've done that,mind you not on the road,only moving a car from point a to point be in the yard when it has been stripped down,yes looked like either a VR or VS,dash panels looked wrong for a VN VP.

Wonder if the bloke is gripped with remorse yet, or still just high on life

Doggie 1 · **Reply #17: July 25, 2013, 01:12:27**

I think he wheely is an idiot but the police are now steering him in the right direction.
I wonder if he got his vice grips back?

Phil №❶ · **Reply #18: July 25, 2013, 01:30:01**

My ad vice to him would be to, stop doing it.

The Gonz · **Reply #19: July 25, 2013, 10:59:21**

Won't stop us using it to keep telling ripping yarns.

Aussie Keith · **Reply #20: July 26, 2013, 09:10:09**

Its like the ten Ronnies in here.

Doggie 1 · **Reply #21: July 26, 2013, 09:16:51**

I used to like the Two Ronnies.

I think the bigger Ronnie was the cleverer Ronnie though.

Dazzler · **Reply #22: July 26, 2013, 12:32:49**

I agree dave (about the bigger Ronnie)

Doggie 1 · **Reply #23: July 26, 2013, 12:43:02**

He was sprilliant at boonerisms.

I wonder how he would have said: 'The funny looking duck'

FatBoy · **Reply #26: July 26, 2013, 14:31:18**

Fuzzy Duck, Ducky Fuzz.

Ronnie Corbett was actually quite brilliant. His sometime association with John Cleese extended to appearing in at least one of Cleese's excellent business training videos.
In those, Cleese in particular demonstrated an ability to use a mixture of comedy and "straight" acting to demonstrate such things as Profit and Loss, Break even calculations, cash flow budgetting, balance sheets and so on. Wonderful series which I still have on VHS tapes.

Doggie 1 · **Reply #29: July 27, 2013, 02:21:25**

Interesting.

I think little Ronnie was funny and clever, I just liked the big one better.
They did bounce off each well though.
