....And I always thought it was a sausage dog.

 

[aussietrader]

I Australia it refers to undergarments

e,g Going commando - I forgot to wear my dax today!

 

[aussietrader]

I had to post that reference in order to get my 100th post!!

Now I am a senior member there will no longer be such irreverent banter.

 

[FetteredChinos]

aussie. you have barely warmed up!!!


when you get past 600, posts become increasingly pointless lol

 

[aussietrader]

You are right but I always remember what my mum taught me

"Empty Vessels make the most noise" -

****e!! Now that I am senior member does that mean I am half full or half empty?

Here's another silly question.

How many stocks in the FTSE 100?

 

[FetteredChinos]

101 isnt it? might be more now.

QED.

 

[FetteredChinos]

oi brambs, that's cheating.....

 

[anley]

Chinos

Good one and correct!

It's one of those pub questions that you know the answer is not 100.

Someone told me why once but I can't remember the reason, sometimes it's 101 and othertimes 99, but never really 100.

 

[FetteredChinos]
