Can't you do it later mate?

Do so Pete, give yourself time heal.

Yes uphill all the way Also had to lick the steam off the chip shop window for my dinner.

Just asked my Mrs, she said you can get it on Amazon. Sold under the Brand name Bournville Old Jamaica but it is the same stuff.

I remember Mojos, and the rest.. Pear drops also.

You can still get it, my father in law used to love it and my Mrs always tracked it down for him.

Don’t set him off

You are right just did a test and a coffee pod is the same size as a Wagon Wheel now Even fecking smaller when you have to save a bit for the dog.

Me to, like you say youth of today. If I didn’t fix it myself it stayed broken when I was a teenager. I still haven’t worked out how I got talked in lending him 3k to buy and insure the thing. I had to work peeling spuds down the chippy to save the money to buy my first bike. See I’m off again. He is a good lad and means well

Go to Farmfoods Bob you can gets a months supply

Cause he is 19 year old fwit. Just had to go an rescue him. Locked his keys under the seat. . Some of it was scratches through the paint so needs touching it. Have to wait until it is dry for that. Greaves my heart to vinegar as the thing is only 6 months old. But I won’t get on that track as I will get wound up. He is a good lad that means well, there I feel better already.

Yorkies Not for girls in the 1970’s but anyone can buy them now.

Get Cart Wheels from Aldi they are bigger or so the kids tell me

Just occurred to me. Cadburys Cream Eggs. It’s no wonder I am a fat fecker

Some dick at work scuffed my boys ped with some sort of trolley so I got the marks off with some polish for him today Here’s the shocker he actually thanked me. . Perhaps at 19 he is finally turning into a human being that can communicate.

Out and about with the Dear Boy. Bit stormy and wet. Only did 5k but it was good to be out there.

It’s funny the way your mind works. Been wracking my brain all day to remember that song. It’s called Art Lover by the Kinks on the ‘Give the people what they want’ album from 1981. Been listening to the Kinks all afternoon to find it. Bloody enjoyed it but the song itself was much darker than I remember. I do remember it being on the Juke box a lot and all of us singing along to “Come with me and I’ll give you some Spangles” line and laughing. Suppose you see things differently when you’re 15.

Wow you don’t see that sort of thing written down much nowadays. You do know that you can get attention in positive ways as well.

I don’t know much about current TV’s we always got my step dads cast offs. He had more money than sense, Covid got him but he was 89. Anyway to the point he would get a new telly every year and he passed the old ones on to me or other family members. So we have a couple of steps back in terms of tech. But the 55” Samsung in the living room and 42” Panasonic in the Bedroom that are both dumb TV’s with Amazon Firesticks but they have great pictures and I can’t imagine needing better. Suppose each to their own but you don’t have to spend £1000s to get a decent brand decent size TV unless you want to.

Woolworths pick and mix was awesome. I used to love the coffee creams. To die for. We have some Screwballs in the freezer now, fussy kids didn’t like them. We go to Farmfoods about once a month as they are well priced for the branded crap the wife and kids insist on. . The upside is they always have a good selection of sweets and the food you should walk by. Pork Scratchins, Dandelion & Burdock, Strawberry Cream Soda, Fry’s mint cream, all the good bad stuff.

I lost the plot according to my Mrs. What is wrong with washing your bike in the rain? Gotta get the salt off.

Darwinism at its most effective. Stupidity can be very dangerous to your health.

Mate you are falling to pieces, hope you are on the mend soon. I usually find just when I feel roughest I get a bout of gout to finish things off nicely. Sorry for being Jobes comforter.

It's dim and distant memory but I think there is a line in the Kinks song 'Butterfly Collector' that fits that thought. Something along the lines of 'Come with me and I will give you some Spangles!' I am off to Spotify to see if my memory still works.
