    Default Desperate to find himself a girlfriend...

    ..Tony wondered if a big purchase was in order.

    Sorry, but it was crying out to be done - you just shouldn't be able to have a shop with a name like that

    Ok, so I had to google it now, and there is a "Knobshop appreciation" page on Facebook, and it's mentioned on American blogs!

    Well, when we were putting up the new trellis fence, I wanted to get a couple of those decorative things to attach to the top of the posts. So, when we went to B&Q, not finding any, and not being able to think what they were called, I asked two guys working with the fence parts, 'Where can I see your knobs?'

    I didn't think there was anything wrong in that - until Glen stepped in quickly to explain I meant these things... Post Finials 75mm & 100mm Ball Cap Finial 75mm & 100mm Acorn Cap 75mm & 100 mm Bishop Cap & Square Base Cap

    Well, how was I to know there was another meaning to the word?

    Lol. I went into the handy man in Exmouth a few years ago and ask " have you got Brass knockers "
    He tried to keep as straight face , then I said door knockers
