Did you used to write in Television magazine?
I'm sure I read about the legend on a van in there many years ago when I could see... I wonder if Mr Doubleday still lives... Brian -- Brian Gaff - Note:- In order to reduce spam, any email without 'Brian Gaff' in the display name may be lost. Blind user, so no pictures please! "Bill Wright" wrote in message ... "R. Mark Clayton" wrote in message ... "Graham." wrote in message ... Did you know that the most widespread use of the word erection, is in the planning departments of local authorities? Brian An aerial rigger I know used to drive a van with "All erections guaranteed" on the side. That's Bill and he posts in this group. OTOH he is getting on a bit and the guarantee no longer gives a time they will stay up for, indeed he mostly deals with stuff digitally now... Ohh you cheeky monkey! Bill |

m: There was a story a few years ago which said that some bright person decided to add the word erection to the spam detector on the incoming email servers at a local authority in Oxfordshire, with very unfortunate results, ie no emails about planning applications got in. Brian There's a council called Babergh in Suffolk. Any attempts to get to their website were blocked by the security filters on PCs where I work for quite a while! |
