  1. As previously mentioned I do like Parma Violets but Refreshers and Love Hearts also fit the bill. The Violets thing for me became a thing in the family when we occasionally bought the kids one of those tubs with a variety of sugary packs in them, nobody eat the violets apart from me so it became family lore that Dad like them exclusively, so much so that they actually buy them specifically for me. I do like them but not to the exclusion of others things. Nowadays I do buy a Caramac Bar if I see one, but not much else. I also buy Fisherman's friends before choir practice. They are a great way to clear the tubes before and during singing. There are all sorts of sweets specifically designed for that purpose like Vocal Zones, Jakemans and others but nothing beats sucking a Fisherman's Friend. Now there is a gift to all you 'Double Entendre' aficionados
  2. Glad you are back Fred
  3. They sell lots of everything Pete. Very busy dealership.
  4. Went out for a bimble to book my bike in for a service. Could have done it in on the phone but took the excuse to look at the shiny stuff.
  5. Fait accompli, not a party political issue they all want the same thing.
  6. I am sure Johnny Cash wrote a song about that.
  7. We got roast pork with all the trimmings.
  8. Put a couple of toilet rolls in the fridge before you start. Hot going in hot coming out
  9. £6.99 for the season of Your Honor on Amazon.
  10. Bugger don’t have that. just finished The Rig on Amazon Prime. I liked that, bit dark but very current.
  11. Gold Star Actually I was quite impressed when I saw it in the Flesh.
  12. Spent the day with the Mrs watching rubbish telly. Even missed the rugby but sometimes it’s just good to spend some time together. Pissing down here to. Eldest daughter away at college, youngest playing online all day and the boy has turned nocturnal so almost like have no kids for the first time in 15 years. Change is as good as a rest sometimes.

    Henry Cole

    I not a big fan of his but I do like the Motorcycle show he is on. I agree with him being a very nervous egotistical sort of a guy, all that nonsense with his hair at the beginning almost had me tuning out. Was interesting to know a bit more about him, still not a fan but have a bit more understanding about him now. I do like Jellybean who he clearly loves. Not sure I would read his book, I couldn’t make it through Joe Marlers and I do like him.
  14. I like the look of it, but I may be biased as it is an obvious copy of the Himalayan styling. Apart from the alloy wheels I don't see much wrong with it. Bit spendy maybe but looks practical enough. I don't have a downer on the chinese motorcycle industry it is growing and improving and will catch up. A lot of really good tech in other fields comes from China, there is no reason to doubt their motorcycles will get there. If you are honest you will admit the Japanese Motorcycle industry has produced its share of lemons in the past, as have all nationalities. Doesn't stop many aspiring to their latest greatest offerings.
  15. I still think he is a bit of a Tit but interesting to know a bit more about him.
  16. I have a the weekend off for once, just gonna chill out and watch some rugby. I was going to walk the dog today but got to take the Mrs for an X-Ray this morning and it is going to piss down this afternoon so that may be on hold. See how tomorrow goes. I want to go to Plymouth to have a look around a Triumph dealer recommended by my Uncle, who is the same age as me and has a Triumph. Not going to buy anything just want a good look around, but may not go if it is wet, Plymouth is a ball ache at the best of times let alone when it is pissing down. Bike needs a good clean so may do that between the showers.
  17. Quite possibly they have had all sorts of masted things there over the years. My claim to fame was 30 plus years ago I was walking my dogs (two mental Jack Russells) along the cliff path down to Little Combe Beach, as I got on the beach there was a whole film crewe actors and all shooting a scene facing out to the bay with a twin masted sloop sailing by in the background. at this point my Terriorists decided to attack the sound man and his boom. Of course they had to abandon the shot and I heard one of the crewe on the radio to send the sloop around again. Not as easy as it sounds with a sailing vessel. They were not happy with me at all, but I was younger, hungover and not feeling that friendly so told them to fook off and walked on. Twas embarrassing though.
  18. Careful what you ask for Christmas 11 years ago I am the Behold guy

    Proof …

    He is for sure.
  20. I have been in several choirs over the years, hot bed of squabbling and fall out, more so in mixed choirs. I have zero tolerance for that sort of thing so don't hang around if I get grief, I am quite prone to a flounce . The posher the choir the worst in my experience. I have been a member of Mevagissey Male Choir for the longest and still am. I am a soloist with them as well as one of the stronger basses. I have been in several groups that have broken up for various reasons, not always bitching. Its a fantastic hobby and very good for your mental health. I have been many places on tour. I just love singing and always will but don't worry I wont bother any of you with it

    Milly

    It is clever stuff, I like how he just visualizes things then creates them as if it was the easiest thing in the world. I was impressed with the Millyard Flyer created from two cylinders from a radial aircraft engine. I also was so impressed with how he created the joined conrods in the Kawasaki V12.
