Inspired by a funny MN thread about what you heard over the garden fence during lockdown.

I'll start, I heard a corker: 'It's like a thong - only smaller'. I am confusedhmm at what could be smaller than a thong? grin

What have you heard?

When one our neighbours was overheard saying: "When does she arrive?" My wife said in a low voice; "I thought that's what posh girls did!"

Took me all morning to work that out.

Back in the late seventies, the mini series: "Jesus of Nazareth" was being screened. My sister-in-law's 12 year old was staying with us for a few days. She was watching the nativity scene intensely, and then said: "I wonder if she has a boy or a girl." Born in Essex that one.

This happened before the lockdown
We were all sitting outside on the decking in my db’s back garden which has a lane behind it.
A passer by was well into a conversation on his phone the other side of the fence.
“I love you more”...”no I love YOU more”
On the count of three we all shouted “NO I LOVE YOU MORE”
Two words were his reply... the second of which was OFF!
Such fun!

I love the Neil Armstrong one too! I also decided that I chose to believe it Seadragon ?
