Orite mate its ric

a load ov viagra
tablets £1 each if u
interested.sure u
said they sell for £2
up there.

Dear Ric, thanks for the text. I think you may have got a wrong number as I have no recollection of talking to anyone about Viagra since I worked on a project down at Pfizer in Sandwich.

Indeed I can’t think of anyone who calls themselves Ric spelt that way and none of them are able to dispense prescriptions.

I gather that Boots will provide the little blue tablets after extensive questioning but the only pharmacist I know outside of picking up my prescriptions lives in Canada.

I very rarely get texts, apart from BT, who send me nine of them every time we need a BT Technician to do an “Engineer Reset” in the Exchange. So when yours arrived yesterday when we were both in the kitchen, I handed my Mobile to Karen who burst out laughing, assuring me that I was not the target audience for your excellent 50% discount opportunity.

That is not to say that some of my friends and acquaintances may not be interested, so I have put your offer up on my blog, with your phone number, which is 07854 311771.

Alas, I have bust the 160 character limit, but if you do get in touch with him, tell him Een says Orite.

    Perhaps you would prefer my offer on facebook?

    Thanks Nige, but Hesh sent me that last week.

    Do they need a spam filter on mobiles too?

    By the way, Jocko wants to know where you got your dog in SL. He wants one too. No poop patrol there.

    I’m lost, how do you get home on this new template?

    £1 each seems good value

    JMB, I’ll check on the dog situation. I’m sure my Labrador would be delighted to have a new owner.

    (I can’t remember what the pooch is called now, David named it back in the Blogpower Awards days)

    To get back to the home page, just click on Shades of Grey in the title bar.

    Marty, I have to say I genuinely have no idea if it is good value or not. It might be very bad value if you pay by credit card…
