Rare sight nowadays, have used one but never really got on with it.

Same here, but for different reasons..

You shake a man's hand, little while later you go for a wee....

Whilst walking through park later in the day you pat a dog...
...you go for a wee,.
Take penis out..
Dogs DNA is on your penis...

..moments later you are hit by a bus and killed..
You are identified as a homosexual dog fiddler and will be remembered that way for evermore.
Remember kids; always sit down to wee

Always called it a hand board. Solely down to my beginning that's what everyone else called it. Well more than it was called a hawk. I always assumed the name hawk came because you hold it the same way you would use your arm for a perch when calling your hawk in falconry. Now I cant get Billy Casper and Kes out my head

If it looks like a hawk, sells like a hawk then it must be a hawk.

He's setting out a Plasterers oval and trips over the gothic arch and lands on the springing line.
Or was it was suicided after he seen the NVQ qualifications.

Yes, you can manage without a small tool, until you need it.
A useful tool, if you can find it.
Always at the bottom of the water bucket. Or is it?
