When I'm not Morris Dancing

I'm an avid collector of barbed wire

As a consequence of collecting barbed wire, I have also had to become a thimble collector

I never have a dull moment, especially when I'm practicing my Morris Dancing upstairs, and my wife jokingly threatens to shove my thimble collection where the sun don't shine, it could be worse I suppose, she might ram barbed wire up my :censored:

:lol: Horizontal studies. I used to do line-dancing but they've taken the rails away. :lol: I see you have the 1943 version of the wire used at the prison camp for runaway toffee apples in Utter Mungoonia Baz. Thats worth its weight in margarine. :D

Is syncronised swimming a wet form of line dancing, and do you need to be a member of The Neck Nip Club to join?.

I collect rare breeds of dog. We call this one Tigger. She is a Long Haired Asian Retriever and prefers cat food to dog food for some strange reason.
