Even Sports Direct are better than Dunelm

[BaronC]

Sports Direct have just published the review I did of their trainers

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never live

Without trainers that had died

But then I spent so many nights

Thinking how to right the wrong

And I grew strong

And I learned how to lace through the tongue

And so I went back

To a familiar place

I just walked in to find footwear here

Trainers fit to run a race

I should have bought some proper socks

I should have seen what else I could see

If I had known for just one second

My back would no longer bother me

I'll go on now go walk out the door

Just turn around now

I can't afford to spend anymore

The shoes are great and it pains me to say goodbye

Don't think I'll tumble

Sure I wont twist my ankle and cry

Oh no, not I

I will survive

Oh as long as I know how to walk

I know I'll please my wife

Who else would I stroll with

The woman with whom I live

And I'll survive

The trainers make me alive

Hi Baron.

One question ......can you download this track ?

[BaronC in reply to paxo05]

It's a question of royalties... 

[StrawberryCream]

Things not good here at the mo but you have managed to get me to break out with a little grin in amongst all the stresses keeping me miserable! Could you sing it to me please cos that might even get a little chuckle?!!  You have an amazing ability with words Andy.

[BaronC]

Thanks you! Pleased to have cheered you a little. Hope things improve for you soon

Omg - I have just had such a bad morning and I'm on the way to a hosp apt in a minute......this cheered me up sooooo much and made me laugh. Thank you so much - you're an inspiration. There's obviously light at the end of the tunnel (hopefully not a train coming) . Well done - so funny  

[BaronC in reply to Elenor3]

Aw, thanks Elenor, keep smiling! Good luck at hospital

When daily woes disturb our day

Along you come to have your say

With tales of shoes and Sports Direct

To make us smile and reconnect

With joy and sheer absurdity

And bring us back to sanity.

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Niiiice!

There once was a lady called Cat

The Headway webpage was where she was at

She was trying to knock bandy, a poor chap named Andy

Not like this, but just like that!

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

No not like that but like this

With a couple of smiles and a kiss...................

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Ah, you loves me really

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

Today I bought two pairs of shoes at forty pounds a throw

They're comfy and trendy and wonderf'ly  bendy

............Just thought I'd like you to know.

..........................True story BTW.        

[cat3 in reply to cat3]

This thread has gone completely up the wall so I'm off to plant my bedding plants.

And yes, I do loves you really !!    xx

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Two pairs of shoes? That sounds rather nice

Sorry for the delay, I've just made spicy chicken fried rice

Another true story, BTW

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

What's in the sauce ?  I'm famished now after all that planting.    x

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Dash of soy sauce, splash of olive oil, a spoonful of honey, a hint of chili and a clove of garlic...

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

That simple ? I've been using supermarket sauces and they're not good. I'll try this next time. x

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Seriously, it's lovely. Use the olive oil and soy as the base, plenty of honey. Simmer gently and add whatever spices you fancy really. Add milk if required to make it go further, a pinch of cornflour to thicken if you fancy. Job done.

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

OK thanks Andy ; that's dinner sorted for tonight !

Looking at the ingredients on jars of sauce, there's a whole myriad of different herbs & spices. But it's the simple recipes which the experts use, and I suspect they're the best. x

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Report back when you've had a little taste...

As I said about something else earlier in this thread, it's a question of royalties

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

I shall deny everything !

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

It's true, the artists never get their fair share

[cat3 in reply to BaronC]

OK.................do you accept PayPal ?

[BaronC in reply to cat3]

Cash, cheques, Paypal, 'favours'

[angelite]

LOL ! A timeless classic, remastered : )) x

[BaronC in reply to angelite]

I like to think so

[malalatete]

You could be, no scratch that, you ARE the next Wierd Al Jankovitch. And all our very own too!

[BaronC in reply to malalatete]

You doth flatter me so

[gabimou]

Hahahahaa....Run Andy Run(**,)

[BaronC in reply to gabimou]

Always!

[Bonnieblyth]

Ha ha loving the banter on this thread

Makes me realise humour is not dead

Poetic works keeping us alive

Go thrive go thrive go thrive

❤❤❤🤣🤣🤣

[Kirk5w7]

How come I missed this all those years ago? Amazing stuff x

[BaronC in reply to Kirk5w7]

Where did you drag this up from???

[Kirk5w7 in reply to BaronC]

It popped up at the bottom of one of today’s Headway posts, i dont normally read them because they are often old posts but your name caught my eye so i had to read it and didnt remember it first time round

[BaronC in reply to Kirk5w7]

Happy days 😁

[Wazza84]
