That's awful. I'm glad you're ok and can take it quite philosophically. :dave:

Thanks Cassiepod, once I got over the initial shock I was OK. Just annoyed! :angryfire:

Thats a really horrid thing to happen Nev!! Isn't it strange what some people call humour and what a shame they put such things on the TV for the kids to look up to as an example of how to behave!! Hope they get whats coming to them - like a giant hen flying past and dropping one on their heads!! lol
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Nev mate!

Actually, when I saw the subject title, I thought this must be an anouncement about you having a heart attack, so I'm glad it's not that, at least.

It would be easy to be overcome by your own anger about stuff like this, but I'm glad to see that that doesn't look like it's happening. And actually, I don't suppose that surprises any of us.

Still, probably best to just stay indoors from now on - clearly you only distress the locals otherwise.

Yes Stew!

Obviously making them jealous with my fine physique :roll:

No point getting bitter and twisted about it - then they win! :mrgreen:

It`s horrible! It might be funny to the perpetrators but it`s a nasty shock to the victim - like when some idiot deliberately drives through water to drench you!
BTW - sorry to be dim as usual - but what`s a RPG?

I had to do a bit of research for that, too. Acronym Finder came up with 34 meanings.

I think it's probably not a Resistance Protein Gene, and maybe not a Radioisotope Power Generator. Doubt it's the Reuse Planning Group (though that sounds interesting), and in this context, a Role Playing Game sounds unlikely.

I feel confident that neither Nev nor Fee would ever dream of suggesting use of either a Repeating Plasma Gun (from Star Wars), or a Rocket-Powered Grenade. Would they?

No, I reckon that they must have been refering to some sort of Rotary Pulse Generator (whatever that is). Am I right?

Bingo! There is nothing like an RPG to get you a little respect, especially in traffic. :mrgreen: There is a local army guy being prosecuted at the moment for stealing ROCKET LAUNCHERS and selling them to criminal elements! Serious stuff. (and no it wasn't me that bought them! :lol: )
