@moonbus saidGentle reminder of the 1200 pounds you owe me sir for all that snake oil I sent you.
Hey, I get an allowance, man! That means I’m allowed to spend it on any frivolity of my own choosing. RHP subscription, bubble gum, beer, tickets to see Jeff Beck. Whatever I want.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidBut sir, you mentioned 1400 pounds to me - was that a different kind of snakes...?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidHospital care...?
The extra 200 pounds was to cover the costs I incurred while extracting the oil.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidSorry, I have a limit of 200 per month. And it’s already committed: RHP sub, bubble gum, beer, snake oil remover, and Jeff Beck tickets. I do have a spare Jeff Beck ticket, you want it?

Jeff Beck....English guitarist most of us on this side of the pond have not heard about
Geoffrey Arnold Beck (born 24 June 1944) is an English rock guitarist. He is one of the three noted guitarists to have played with the Yardbirds (the other two being Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page). Beck also formed the Jeff Beck Group and with Tim Bogert and Carmine Appice, he formed Beck, Bogert & Appice.

@ghost-of-a-duke said... from a Moroccan witch doctor. Have you any idea how much snake oil remover is required to remove 1200 pounds worth of snake oil ... from a 15th c. tapestry, ... depicting a Trappist pilgrimage ... to the second largest ball of twine in Flanders ... which ultimately entangled the monks in martyrdom? No, I suppose you wouldn’t. However, you may relay to the Moroccan witch doctor that the ritual, although it did not entirely vanquish the wart, did induce it to migrate to a location less prominent such that Ponderable (whom I recently met for beer and Mexican food) scarcely remarked upon it. Most kind of him.

@wolfgang59 saidThere's a funny Impractical Jokers episode where one of the friends has to try and get somebody to accept a jar of 'grandma oil.'
I didn't even know snakes needed oiling!
Amazing what you can learn on RHP.
