Thanks, everyone, for your kind words and funny comments. I'm so glad that James' caption was able to receive the recognition it deserved too, very worthy. And as always, thanks to Chris for all the work you do for us. Today begins a new month so we' --Vivvy En
Thanks everyone, you crazy bunch. You keep me sane, you really do. Thanks also to Chris - caption.me remains my favourite hang-out. And my gratitude also goes to Lizzie's dysfunctional family for providing us with excellent captioning material. --Vivvy En
Way hay! I'm starting to feel like a bit of a Captioneer now, need to work a bit on my consistency, lol. Thanks peeps, for all your votes and lovely comments. Thank you, Chris, for shining this here beacon of lightheartedness, where ... --Vivvy En

This is a true story: Years ago I regularly ran with a group of about 10-15, mostly guys, starting at and ending a running shoe store. On one run we came to a 8-10 foot high fence with a gate and padlocks on the gate. One by one the guys climbed over the gate while I waited and tried to see if there was another way. Then, just as the last one was climbing over, I saw that the locks weren't actually locked, but made to look like they were locked. After the last one had climbed over, I opened the lock, opened the gate, and walked through.
I don't know who Johnny English is Glyn, but it sounds like a nice compliment so I gave it a vote. Mind you, this was well over thirty years ago. It brings to mind another story about how one of our runs was named. One of our Thursday runs involved running around the side of a steep hill and running to the top from the back side. This hill was so steep and long, that nobody could make it all the way up without walking at least part of it. Nobody except for two of us - one of the salespeople from the running shoe store, and me. On one of these runs, we both made it to the top way before anyone else, and knew we'd have to wait. I looked at the other guy and said why don't we do it again? He said ok, and so we started back to run around and up the hill again. We ran into another one of our runners who was late and who decided to skip the steep part and meet everyone by running up the front side which was much less steep. We told him we were going to run it again and asked if he'd like to come with us. He said "Are you guys on glue?" From then on, this particular run was known as the "glue loop".
Willie, Johnny English is a parody of James Bond etc with Rowan Atkinson in the title role. The films are alright but also a bit naff but that one punchline is the one I remember the most from the series.

Dear Aunt Whilnelia (kudos on the name btw. Awesome!)
This ornate boot remover you got me must have cost a fair whack so that means you've probably got a fair bit in the bank so I'd like to know how much you're going to give me in my inheritance. I need money fast so I can't really wait for you to pop your clogs so what we'll need to do is figure out an arrangement where you can make monthly installments into my bank account. If you don't comply in paying up, for future reference know this, I have friends. They're desperate people and they're also fickle enough to do my bidding and follow my every instruction.
Please get in contact and show me a sign of your love and that you care by contributing to my future survival
Your money loving nephew
Dave

It really is heart warming, certainly brought a tear to my eye. Dave just wants to know that there's someone out there that cares for him even if he has to lovingly take care of a family member himself especially if it's their finances. You can't beat a bit of love, can you? π₯° Love for yourself, love for people who you see as an extension of yourself even though they're not technically you, it's all so selfless, I love it.

No keep it. The government can use the money.

Willie, that story's a bit like the great punchline to a parkour chase in one of the Johnny English movies

Dear Aunt Whilnelia,
Thank you so much for the very useful ornate bronze boot remover. You do spoil me! It was so thoughtful of you. Just as soon as my friends come over we'll move it into my bedsit.
Your loving nephew,
Dave
