the stinking enigma Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I like the way he just tourettes random going forwards into the piece.

Could have just said Friday everyone's gone home for the weekend and we can't be asked bothering them until Monday. So please stay home.... by Monday oops. erm... we got it wrong.
