Kearnage Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I like the new name of the forum: brewing blether. "blether - idle or foolish and irrelevant talk". Wholly appropriate for this band of compulsive bletherers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trusty1 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 So when I am called a "Blithering mess" my wife probably means "Blethering mess"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty A Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I always get called a blubbering mess. I think it has a similar meaning except with mine she doesnt understand what I am saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 It took me a while to work out what the frock you were all talking about [pinched] I must say that I babble, bore, ramble and whine but I never blether [annoyed] What a weird word [sick] [pouty] sounds like some kind of roadkill and innards stew...conjures up mental images as bad as the new dodgy brotheres DIY moniker [innocent] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeB Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Well, I gotsta tell ya......this Yank has never heard the word "blethering" before - but I like it! [happy] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutherglen Rambler Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I prefer to ramble![biggrin] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I prefer to ramble Yes we know RR - good to see you are still around [biggrin] Must say, I had a quiet laugh to myself when I settled on 'blether'. Changing the name was prompted by Ross when he pointed out that club conversations is not so accurate, now there is no club [pinched] Can't claim any responsibility for DIY, though [bandit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 [sideways] I always considered the posts on this forum to be of fine quality...kind of like a well aged wine. To be reduced to blether does tend to cheapen the whole affair[annoyed] ...[whistling ...[tongue] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Google tells me it means this Noun 1. blether - idle or foolish and irrelevant talk chin music, In other words, we're talking about fast bowlers? Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andris Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 so, to blether or not to blether is the retorical question then :D btw, what significance holds the tiny dot under it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 What, this dot?? . Very observant, Andris - when I changed the title it would not let me out of the screen without including a description. At this point, my low interest light was shining brightly, hence the dot [innocent] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
