There's a jigger in the woodpile

 

[Mudcat]

Jiggered in a more British sense just kinda means surprised, maybe a bit excited.

I'll be jiggered is pretty much interchangeable with a good old-fashioned, I'll be damned!




I strongly discourage anyone from tampering with my controls.

What ever happened to the orange shorts?

 

[Mudcat]

They mostly sat in a drawer for the winter but as it gets warmer, they will become a prime option around the house and replace the long-pants comfies. I do not have air conditioning so ----> shorts.

The oranger the better.

Muddy what do you think of the MrMonkey-Daft feud of 2013?

 

[Mudcat]

Not sure. I have seen a small number of lightly smouldering volleys but no real fireworks.

I am a bad guy to ask about internet feuds anyway. Many people get excited about them and break out the popcorn smileys but I'm the opposite. As soon as I see things going in a bickery direction, I tend to stop reading.

I have not yet had that situation arise with MrM/Daft '13. A few times I have asked myself, are they really mad at each other or just joshing around? And I have concluded, probably a bit perturbed. That's as far as I have seen.



I did have the orange shorts out on the weekend BTW.
