I have lived a sheltered life!

[Gavin John Hyde]

My back is playing up this eve as I have been on my knees all day installing a long run of swa for a summerhouse at knee height, clipped direct to a garden wall. Then Installing a rod, small Cu for sockets and lights and doing all the terminations. Started this morning at 7:30 as its local and worked all day.. Given this heat as well I am knackered. Got to go back tomorrow to install the outside lights and garden lights from same summerhouse CU.

So pop along to the pharmacy counter in the local Sainsburys for some ibuprofen and aftersun cream...on the counter is a whopping big ------ display! turns out they flog them over the counter now... If you buy the 4 pack of ------ you do get a free pack of condoms though!just pop along and buy them it seems, next to the display is a basket of free chlamydia test kits.... Something of an irony that.
Ask the girl if they are selling many of the blue pills. They are flying off the shelf apparently, as now the price is cheap and people wont risk buying fakes full of who knows what... not something that appeals to me but,It took me completely by surprise... have I missed something about how life changed or am i getting old too quick???

 

[The Ghost]

or am i getting old too quick

Well the acid test for that is how many did you buy?

 

[Gavin John Hyde]

I bought 16.... Ibuprofen...
As for the others its not my thing and I firmly believe you shouldn't take medicines unless they are needed

Not ironic, just marketing. Like tobacco firms investing in cancer treatment drugs.

I know a couple of body builders who swear by them as they help increase blood circulation when they're training.

They probably like to look at each other in the mirrors as well though...

... If you buy the 4 pack of ------ you do get a free pack of condoms though!....

I know 2 facts
a) They come in different strengths via doc !
b) They can cause headaches ! (More irony)

 

[camerabloke]

I’ve used ------ eye drops. Makes you look hard

 

[telectrix]

I rub SWA cables with ------. stops them sagging.

 

[Dave OCD]

The entire display of these was stolen earlier from my local Tescos. The cops are looking for a hardened criminal.

 

[Gavin John Hyde]

Why do nursing homes give their male patients ------?

To stop them from rolling out of bed.

I remember my mate taking a couple one Friday after work in the pub. One of the weirdo day drinking locals had offered him some coke in the toilets, which he declined, but took a couple of free "poke" instead.

His intention was to get home and give the missus a seeing to, but as ------ works by increasing blood flow around the body, and him having already had a skinful of blood thinning Stella artois, turned out that a couple of blue pills see you sat up all night with an unstoppable nose bleed. As well as the other effects of course.

This thread is hilarious! @Andy78 glad to hear your mate is ok and that you didn't have any lasting effects from the episode

I got badly sunburned over the back holidays with my shorts on and rang my old man to see if he had anything having just come off his holidays, he popped round and gave me a ------ pill... I was confused at first but OMG it was a relieve not to have the sheets touching my legs all night!

 

[SparkyChick]

This thread is funny, this is why I like working with blokes

I would say keep it up but it seems strangely inappropriate
