[Friar Tuck]

In the beginning there were Angle Grinders.

And the Lord sayeth:
"Go forth and spread the Word!"

And there was Mitch rejoicing among the proletariate!

And so forth went the desciple (or whatever they're called) and spread the word! Demonstrating the Holy Art to whoever would listen, and cut up any object standing in the way!

On the second day the young desi.. desci... apostle! went unto the Lord and sayeth:
" 'Ere, Alik! Wot do I do now I've cut everfing up in Sight?"
And the Lord sayeth:
" You Prat! Hast though not heard of the Ying and the Yang?"

And the young Apostle hung his head in shame, for he had not heard of such teachings:
" I am sorry Lord I aint 'eard of no such fings! Pray do tell me of such wonderous do-dahs!"

And the Lord was magnani.... magnif.....magnoni..... good to the young apostle and playfully belted him around his ear:
"Now listen hear you Dipstick!" said the Lord "Applying the Angle grinder must be counter-manded with the use of the Arc-welder, or Mig-Welder, or if you are really clever a Tig-Welder! Now I command you to go forth and find The Holy Machine and repair the pile of scrap that was once the property of the Virgin Mrs.R!"

And so it came to pass that the young Apostle set forth to find such a Holy Machine.

On the third day, He came accross an accolyte by the name of Yoda!
"Pray do tell me where I can find Yon Holy Machine known as a Welder?"

The accolyte thought for a bit..... And bit more......... and still he thought........

[Yoda]

On the third day, He came accross an accolyte by the name of Yoda!
"Pray do tell me where I can find Yon Holy Machine known as a Welder?"

The accolyte thought for a bit..... And bit more......... and still he thought........

then he thought some more
and after some more thinking, he then thought
why not refer to the holy bible
so he opens up his holy copy of BSH ..errrrr i mean 100%Biker and doest quote to the apostle MItch from the book of 'Pat'
'ye must seek out the 'Holy Welder' for it has the power to undo all your misgivings'
Ye shall find it at a place you will not be looking at, and thus the unseen place will then become seen'
But to see the unseen place you must pass through many dark and evil places,you will know theses place as they carry the many names of the devil himself, that being 'B&Q' 'Homebase' 'Wicks'.
Do not let these evil places tempt you into sin my son, for you shall be tempted by greed and promises of a 5 year extended warranty'
Still you must folow the path to the unseen place which will be seen and then can no longer be called the unseen place.
you will know this place by receiving a holy sign, and thus the sign shall read 'Machine Mart'
upon entering the place formally known as the 'unseen Place' ye shall be greated by great and knowledgable warriors.
these warriors shall advise you and relieve you of your great burden (your money) and then you shall walk away with the aforementioned welder.
and as you walk off into the sunset, you suddenly realise that your journey is only just beginning...

To Be continued...........(By someone else)

now armed with such powerful weapons and a yellow cloth tape measure donated from the sewing basket of the virginal mrs r. our hero set upon the motorcycles with such vigour, mighty sparks flew into the air. A bright blue light lit up the faces of some shepherds and 3 queens, who were passing by and had stopped to look upon the wonder that was being born in this little barn.
many hours passed... EUREKA cried out our semi naked hero,as much of his clothing showed signs of burning, proof of the great battle that had gone on between good and evil.
my lady! he cried out come hither, see what i have created for you.
the virginal mrs r came unto the barn wrapped in her sheepskins and weasel scarf as there was a chill filling the night air.
you called me my husband?
yes my lady, i have fought the great fight and conquered the evil forces that would have me fail in my task, i have made for you this wonderfull creation.
oh thank you my husband, she walked around it and marvelled upon its many angles, its length which took 6 mighty strides to cover.
she turned and looked at our hero with a beatiful innocent look in her eyes.
"what is it exactly?" she asked. why it is a chopper! oh she says, what did it used to be? your bike, mitch proudly explains.
when our hero regained consciousness, he was in much pain, oh lord he cried out why hast thou forsaken me, why hast thou taken away my sight?
a local healer who had be called replied. did not the good people at machine mart explain to thee that to use such machines as the mig and the angle grinder thou should wear a mask. so that thou never looks upon the great light with only the naked eyes?
they did not kind sir.
that that moment a great noise filled the night sky a great wailing.
and there appeared a great red monster. which stopped by the barn, and many imps came out of it and they took great tubes out of the belly of the beast and commenced to pour great quantities of holy water upon the barn.
which contained much hay and straw for the animals.
with great shame and pity. he opened his red swollen eyes and asked his wife for forgivness for what he had done.
mrs r appeared steadying herself on a crook. she looked down upon our dejected hero, raised her crook high into the air and bought it down..
and our hero saw many bright lights and stars and went to sleep again

CLASS :D :D

[Santa]

First time I used mine I damn near set fire to the crotch of my overalls!Feckin' polyester! :eek: :eek:







it is not clear from your post which of the aforementioned tools was responsible for this calamity, but why were you trying to use either of them on polyester? Surely a pair of scissors would suffice to cut up a piece of cloth, and a needle and thread is undoubtedly the best way to re-assemble said fragments of cut up cloth? (Well, so I'm told. I'm not actually allowed to have anything sharp or pointy.) :D

[Dougie]

I was grinding the centre stand off (cos it was 25 years old and had rusted to feck) and I hadn't adjusted the spark guard properly,so the sparks were hitting the crotch of my cheap'n'nasty polyester ovies!! :eek: :eek:
That explanation good enuff?
