Lol. I thought since I'd had to see it, you shouldn't miss out.

(I actually searched for 'how did Harrison Ford get his scar', was apparently a car crash, not when he done a whip at a lion.) :(

This is a story about the bond formed between an innocent little girl and a group of building workers. It's allegedly true and might help to confirm your belief in the goodness of people and that there is hope for the human race....................

A young family moved into a house next door to an empty plot. One day, a gang of building workers turned up to start building on the plot.

The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started talking with the workers.

She hung around and eventually the builders, all with hearts of gold, more or less adopted the little girl as a sort of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had tea and lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.

They even gave the child her very own hard hat and gloves, which thrilled her immensely.

At the end of the first week, the smiling builders presented her with a pay envelope - containing two pounds in 10p coins. The happy little girl took her 'pay' home to her mother who suggested that they take the money to the bank the next day to open a savings account.

At the bank, the female cashier was tickled pink listening to the little girl telling her about her 'work' on the building site and the fact she had a 'pay packet'.

'You must have worked very hard to earn all this', said the cashier.
The little girl proudly replied, 'Yes, I worked every day with Steve and Wayne and Mike. We're building a big house.'

'My goodness gracious,' said the cashier, 'And will you be working on the house again next week?'

The child thought for a moment. Then she said seriously:

'Yea, I think so.

Provided those wankers at Jewson's deliver the f**king bricks on time.'

I'm sat at work reading this and have just raised a few eyebrows for pissing myself laughing. Thanks Oldrocker, made my day.

scut.

We use that in Ireland to describe a perv! I wonder if that's the original meaning, not heard it used over here at all.

Tiny Chameleon! Tiny Frog! Tiny Etruscan Shrew!

I was at an event earlier this week and a chap said that his company had held a naked team building event. Basically, if you show everyone what you've got no-one should have any inhibitions with each other, be more honest yada-yada...

What you reckon? Should we give it a try?

Will you be carefully selecting the ladies with cellulite and making us get fake tans so we resemble satsuma peel?
