Having noticed this word come up more and more, being too lazy to look on the big wide interweb, i was wondering if anybody know much about this phenomenon? , i.e, what is it?!

I thought it was something to do with rummaging in park bushes with a stranger at 5.30am, is it something far more sinister?

Dean,
Im not a qualified plumber, but im led to believe that this term is used in the plumbing trade and refers to the clearing away of overly large logs that are blocking the toilet pan.
I believe that the word is a hybrid of Block,Log and Logging.
Quite how logs would get into your toilet is somewhat baffeling....But there you have it...Blogging.

Dean,
I think the other thing that you are reffering to is known as "Dogging".....
As in " Im dogging out for him".... a term used by a burglers mate.....To warn the burglar of the arrival of a police constable....
So there you have it....Dogging...

This is just like a skinternet version of "Call my Bluff"...very entertaining!!!

The next time you find yourself in the close proximity of your flesh/blood spring offs -perhaps as you administer a firm cuffing for example?- I would ask one of them, you see the world super highway is something that they are much more au fait with? If you have a daughter, as she reaches "teen" age this "Blogging" may manifest itself in the quoting of Nirvana lyrics, photographing her feet in black and white and the assumption of an avatar image usually in the form of a japanese "manga" character. You have been warned. It's not just good old tit and ass on the old web thing, there is some proper weird stuff out there too.

ps. how goes operation "luke"? I wish you and yours the very best.

pps. on a different note are either you or Frank Muir attending this "monster weekending" thing, Richard_S and my good self should appear for the saturday...assuming the previous nights chemicals have been flushed. We could all sit around in akward silence and mumble at one another over frothy ales patiently awaiting the arrival of the comedy muse? given our usual erratic outpourings we may be able to rise a chuckle twice in 12 hours? that sounds good to me.

I never partook of this but I did spend some years at one of these "comprehensive" schools and met quite a few of the underclass. Flobbing was quite the thing, I wonder if the young folk still do any of this now it's all sega this, and broadaround that?

Ruth, do you or any of your friends have one of these blogs? Perhaps they could share their thoughts nee blogs with us? I did once spend some time with a young lady who had a "livejournal" which is like blogging. As usual she was quite mad but had a lovely singing voice.

Dogging........An act of walking the dog after dark specifically in populated car parks in the hope of catching folk "at it" in their cars.
They have internet clubs and arranged viewings for this type of thing now.

After many hours of research in to this phenomenon, helped in no small part by the variety of intellectually challenging contributions on this thread, i think i now know what blogging is.

Bloggers- a small but dedicated group of followers of Robert plant, famed musician and pioneer of blogging. It all started with the release of the seminal eighties athem rock song "big log". At the time of release many reviewers criticised the song for being crude and having too many intestinal references, in particular to IBS. It has become apparent over time that this was indeed the first blog, and therefore robert plant is the blog god (at least in the opinions of some of his more fanatical followers). It is intersting to note that in his big log (web version), there are indeed references to irregular bowel activity, but most people think this is a barbed swipe to the reviewers who slagged him off at the time of the single's release.

So, there you have it, evewyones a fwuit and nut cake.

hmmm well I know, and I think that you know that I know that you know, I hope so any way. How are the junior Bonds shaping up? perhaps if I could persuade some young ladyfriend to bear my child (via unartificial insemination naturally) then I could bring my nippers up as despotic global domination type crooks? thus our kids can go "toe to toe" as "Eazy peezy E" of "gentlemen of colour with attitude" once chirped and their lives will have some purpose? we could even have a little sweepstake on whose sprogs are the top dogs? It's just a thought... I have been doing a bit too much of this lately.

This term is actually incorrect and comes from the phrase "Flogging a dead Norse"
This practice is carried out in many Scandinavian countries, where dead people are sold for quite large sums of cash....Strange but true...

how about mini mings?, my advice would be steer cleer of "sprogging" for as long as is biologically possible, however if one were to be hellbent on reproducing for the purpose of global (and possibly galactic) domination then i would reccomend a bit of gender specification. Having one of each specimen currently training in my academy i have certainly noticed a more devious approach in the female (as opposed to number two who seems more deviant, chip off the old block). Considering the mere eighteen months age of number three she has a fine repertoire of scrams, gouges and all round nastiness.

Number two tends to be more laidback and struggles to concentrate on the more technical and physically demanding missions, often falling to sleep for periods of hours.

Most importantlyy, start them young, and give them all the correct equipment. I have had our standart puschair modified at great expense. To the untrained eye it is just a standard mothercare buggy, but thanks to our technical advisor, "R" it is just a bit different........

Random chat, just to clarify, is a dish served down the gateway to goa, a delightful takeaway on the seafront. It consists of a variety of lightly spiced onion and chick pea mixes dipped in gee and batter. It is then deep fried for 1-2 minutes and served on a bed of naan.

Sag aloo, however, was a classic novelty song released in the late eightites, however i cant remeber the group.

it went....

Sag aloo loo loo, shake pinapples wake the tree
Sag aloo loo loo, etc etc etc.

I think you will find that memorable ditty was penned by the nations favourite abrasively be-quiffed funny man Mark Lemar, he did that "too shy shy hush hush song" I think he was a bit homogenised and used to knock around with that dj bloke, I may be wrong as -yes it's true folks- I don't know everything...yet, but I know a lot of things about you lot..oh yes.

Have any of you ladies and gentleman recently purchased any "random tat" only the other day I convinced myself that I had an emptiness in my life, oh yes, and that vacuum was the shape of a Dainese key fob for 9 euros and that vacuum needed filling. Do you know what though? It really is a piece of useless tat!! what a plonker eh? It says "ninja" although according to some shopkeeps and cut purses it reads "mug....1 minute old"

my most teasured piece of tat is a "car buffing machine" which looks like a circular sander bit has a toupe attached to the bottom. I have tried using it but it takes the paint and lights off.

Other tat that is random includes a fine selection of lever arch files, a variety of computer speakers and some trousers that are too small.

For instant village idiot mode and visual tom foolery just hoike (I hope that's a word, whether it is spelt correctly or not I do not give a damn) your trousers up over your ankles, then wander about for a bit! it really is the most capital fun! In fact I am going to do it right now! As for "overpriced tat" those phillipe starck juice squeezer things really are the pits (I do not have one as they are a bit gay) but my friend does, he is called Nathaniel and is Olivia Newton Johns nephew which goes at least some way to explaining things.

QUOTE]

FODDER...Dry hay or straw etc. For horses & cows.
Also slang for food in general.

So, that brings us to:-
FODDING......Being a greedy bastard. ie:- Stuffing one's face with food.
Metaphorically it could be used as in greedy in other ways such as:-
Not content with having a Ducati, and a lovely buxom wench, one then ensures that said buxom wench gets a job in sunnier climes so that one can laze about in the sun. Once settled, send photos to former mates back in the old country and gloat.
Thus being accused of 'Fodding', is not nice.

Sorry, Alex, your disslecksia is getting the bettuh of yew again - it is Roger Poultry you must be finking abaat.

He was last seen in that little known underground haminated flick Chicken Run (voiced by Mel Gibson - a bit of trivia but a small show of intelligence in these vulgar times is considered to be good manners) - if you haven't seen it, it is a quite sordid tale of a night down the local curry house gone wrong - the morning after aftermath was not a pretty sight - hence the title.

The "Passion" was nothing compared to this tail, it ruffled a few feathers as I recall which links loosely onto the curry house/brandon twat/public speakers that specialise in talking to computers/arches that need filing - personally always stopped at my toenails but hey, each to their own.

Toe nails wise, I'm something of a tearaway, but as you so sagely put it "each to their own" I do recall chicken run -vaguely, as one is not as young these days, something to do with old father times and a nostalgia for the rosy days- is that not by the same director Nick Sparks of dodgy tache, two tone brogues and Ealing Classic "the wrong trousers" fame? assuming the synapses are correctly aligned and timing marks duly observed. It is a puzzle, but then that's life, dress rehersals and instruction booklets aside.

Your imput in these matters is always welcome Simon, Tabitha and I still miss the sound of your hobnail boots on the shingle but no doubt these days you are busy battering larger fish.
