Only in The Shed would you find a series of jokes about Chamberlain and the break out of WWII! Makes a change from fart gags I suppose.
Glad to see that fandango guy's not round now, I never liked him.
Oops. 
Just writing some garbage to see if my new title's in place yet.

^^oh, goodness...not another one...
there are far too many idle, good-for-nothing 'Honorary Collabs' clogging up this forum, with their 'I've earned the right to swagger my 5 star arse around here, 'cos I used to make a few decisions...' attitude.. 
well, as far as I'm concerned, if you want to be put out to graze, then you should be reduced to being a Senior Oik, who we can talk about in the 'Abuse' thread... 
nice one, Alan...

Well, "Honorary" sounds like someone who just sits around making snide remarks without contributing anything useful, whereas "Bands Submissions Manager" sounds like I should actually be doing some work, so I got it changed.

I asked to be made The Shed Admin responsible for deleting meaningless twaddle, then I realised that would be most of my posts gone.

I did offer to give it back but there were no takers.
I left my badge in reception but it must have melted or been eaten.
Goes to show eh!

I think the idea was to divert you out of the main forums, but sadly it backfired...

Anyway, how do you know it wasn't a car exhaust reference?
