AN old television, with a toaster inside makes a cheap but effective "microwave oven"...for making toast.
AVOID backache from bending to pick your tomatoes, by simply digging a 4
foot trench alongside your plants. Step into the trench and you'll find your tomatoes are conveniently at chest height.
CLUMSY? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.
DON'T waste money buying expensive binoculars. Simply stand closer to the object you wish to view.
SAVE time when crossing a one-way street by only looking in the direction of oncoming traffic.
OLYMPIC athletes. Disguise the fact that you've taken anabolic steroids by running a bit slower. - B. Johnson, Canada
SMOKERS. Save on matches and lighters, by simply lighting your next fag
from the butt of your last one.
BEFORE attempting to remove stubborn stains from a garment always circle
the stain in permanent pen so that when you remove the garment from the
washing machine you can easily locate the area of the stain and check that
it has gone.
GIVE comics that 'Pulp Fiction feel by reading the last frames of cartoons first, then reading the rest in a random order.
HIGH blood pressure sufferers. Simply cut yourself and bleed for a while, thus reducing the pressure in your veins.
HEAVY smokers. Don't throw away those filters from the end of your cigarettes. Save them up and within a few years you'll have enough to insulate your loft.
MOTORISTS. Enjoy the freedom of cycling by removing your windscreen,
sticking half a melon skin on you head, then jumping red lights and driving the wrong way up one way streets.
CREATE instant designer stubble by sucking a magnet and dipping your
chin in a bowl of iron fillings.
CONVINCE neighbours that you have invented a 'SHRINKING' device by
ruffling your hair, wearing a white laboratory coat and parking a white
van or similar vehicle outside your house for a few

days. Then dim and flicker the lights in your house during the night and replace the van unseen, with
a Tonka toy of the same description. Watch their faces in the morning!
HAVE all your sh1tes at work. Not only will you save money on toilet paper, but you'll also be getting paid for it.
OLD telephone books make ideal personal address books. Simply cross out the names and addresses of people you don't know.
FOOL other drivers into thinking you have an expensive car phone by
holding an old TV or video remote control up to your ear and occasionally
swerving across the road and mounting the curb.
LOSE weight quickly by eating raw pork and rancid tuna. I found that the
subsequent food poisoning/diarrhea enabled me to lose 12 pounds in only
2 days.
NO time for a bath? Wrap yourself in masking tape and remove the dirt by
simply peeling it off.
APPLY red nail polish to your nails before clipping them. The red nails will be much easier to spot on your bathroom carpet. (Unless you have a red carpet, in which case a contrasting polish should be selected).
MOTORISTS. Pressing your 'fog lights' switch a second time after the fog
has cleared will actually turn your fog lights off.
A TEASPOON placed in a glass on the back seat of your car makes a handy
audible gauge for road bump severity.
WHEN out driving always turn left. Then, should you become lost, you can
find your way home by reversing the procedure and always turning right.
SAVE petrol by pushing your car to your destination. Invariably passers-by will think you've broken down and help.
BOMB disposal experts' wives. Keep hubby on his toes by packing his
lunchbox with plasticine and an old alarm clock.
OLD folks. Avoid confusion between these new 'microwave' ovens and
televisions by cutting out a large letter 'M' in brightly coloured
paper, and sticking it to the door of the oven.
TEENAGERS. Fed up with posters falling off the wall? Simply

TEENAGERS. Fed up with posters falling off the wall? Simply file them in
a filing cabinet under 'P' and you'll know exactly where to find them if
you want a quick look.
SAVE money on doorbell batteries by removing them and simply popping to
the door every two minutes to see if anyone is there.
SAVE electricity by turning off all the lights in your house and walking
around wearing a miner's hat.
DON'T fork out on expensive smoke alarms. simply fill balloons with
water and hang them from the ceiling. Then cover the floor with air-filled
balloons, each with a drawing pin stuck to the top. In the event of a
fire the temperature will cause the air-filled balloons to rise up from
the floor, and the pins will burst the water-filled balloons, thus
extinguishing the fire. Probably.
RE-SPRAYING your car? Cover it with 'Cling Film' first. If you don't
like the new colour, simply peel it off and start again.
BUY a television set exactly like your neighbours. Then annoy them by
standing outside their window and changing their channel using your
identical remote control.
HOUSEWIVES. I find the best way to get two bottles of washing-up liquid
for the price of one is by putting one in your shopping trolley and the
other in your coat pocket.
WHEN throwing someone a sharp instrument such as a Stanley knife, or
bread knife, always throw it blade first as they invariably tend to turn
whilst in the air.
AVOID being wheel clamped by jacking your car up, removing the wheels
and locking them safely in the boot until you return.
SMELL gas? Locate the suspected leak by striking an ordinary match in
every room in the house until a loud explosion reveals the source of the
escaping gas.
AVOID parking tickets by leaving your windscreen wipers turned to 'fast
wipe' whenever you leave your car parked illegally.

TAXI drivers. Why not pop into the garage and ask them to fix your
indicators lights for you so that other motorists know where the f@ck
you're going.
PENSIONERS. Try sitting on a pile of encyclopedias next time you go for
a drive in your car. That way you will be able to see out of the front
window.
SAVE the cost of installing cable TV by taping current editions of Top
Of The Pops and then watching them in fifteen years' time.
NEVER attempt to fasten your shoe laces in a revolving supermarket door.
MAKE shopkeepers feel like criminals and con men by carefully checking
their change and holding bank notes up to the light before accepting them.
SAVE on charity donations by spending a pound on clothes at a charity
shop, then selling them for 50p to another charity shop. This way you can
give twice as much, at half the cost. I think.
PENSIONERS. Don't forget to retire to bed before 8.00 pm so that you can
get up tomorrow at the crack of dawn and go and collect your morning paper
while anyone with any sense is still sound asleep in bed.
PUTTING just the right amount of gin in your goldfish bowl makes the
fishes' eyes bulge and causes them to swim in an amusing manner.
WEIGH your pet by first weighing yourself, then weighing yourself again,
this time carrying your pet. Deduct the first weight from the second to
reveal your pet's weight.(If weighing goldfish, remember to make an
allowance for the weight of the bowl and the water).
BEE keepers. Keep bee hives in strawberry fields to get jam instead of
honey.
PRETEND your house is a pub by stubbing out cigarettes on the carpet,
watering your cans of beer and kicking your wife out into the garden at
11:30.
KEEP monkeys out of your kitchen by hiding bananas on top of a wardrobe
in your bedroom.

PEOPLE whose surname is Toblerone should always take along an empty
'Toblerone' chocolate box when attending interviews for office jobs.
This would save your potential employer the expense of having to make a
name
triangle for your desk, and therefore increase your chances of getting
the job.
BEER bottle tops floated upside down in the bath, make ideal 'dinghies'
for spiders. Flies can also use them as aircraft carriers.
EAT moderate amounts of food daily so that you do not become too
overweight. Then, in the event of collapsing in a toilet cubicle, a
passer-by will be able to drag you out through the 6 inch gap under the door and walls.
POP a few teabags in your hot water tank and you can make a hot cuppa
anytime by just turning on the tap.
WHEN crossing a one-way street always look in BOTH directions in case a
large, blue furniture removal lorry is reversing the wrong way up the
road.
DETER goldfish from having sex by throwing a small bucket of air over
any that you catch in the act.
AVOID embarrassment after tripping in the street by repeating the
movement several times to make it seem like part of your normal behaviour.
TRANSFORM your garden into a Euro Disney style theme park by charging
your neighbour £20 to get in, £5 for an ice cream and then make him wait 4
hours for a ride on your lawnmower.
IF you foul the air in someone else's bathroom, disguise the smell by
lighting a match and setting fire to a hand towel.
DON'T write you PIN number on the back of your cash card because you
won't be able to read it once you've put it in the machine.

inflatable sex doll with hot water.

He he, all these ones come from the "Viz Top Tips" compilation. Viz books are regularly given as Christmas presents between the males in my family. The profanisaurus looks good, I'm hoping for a copy of that his year.
Some other top tips off the top of my head:
Owners of expensive convertible cars- perform a service to your community by not fitting the hard top when it is windy. This way your car alarm will give regular "weather updates" when it is triggered in the night.
Owners of terraced houses, convince neighours you have a fantastic sex life by kicking the wall rhythmically whilsty moaning loudly.
Gentlemen, enjoy a fun game of "sex rodeo" by doing your missus doggy style and suddenly calling out her mother/sister/best friend's name.
