  1. From here to there at 35mpg ? You've got no worries !
  2. MPH or MPG ? Normally, my car struggles to make either........................!
  3. If there are any on here, who are prepared to face the scorn of others, your advice would be appreciated..................... The good lady and I have reached an age where camping has lost most of it's enjoyment for us, so we're thinking of trying a little caravan. Just a little 2 berth, so we can go away for a couple of nights at a time, half-a-dozen times a year or so. We can only run to 600 quid tops, so I know it won't have all the 'whistles and bells', and will be 20-odd years old, but we've seen a few that seem worthy of a second look. I know to be very wary of damp, but that's a
  4. Worked "down t'pit" when I left school. I was put on salvage - digging out anything metal from abandoned workings. Very dangerous ! Milk delivery ( to shops, not doorsteps) - 2am start, 6 days a week. Frozen food distribution centre - 4am start AND -18 degrees. Mortuary attendant (actual job title was 'pathological anatomy technician') And that's some of the better ones.............................If it's a 5hit job, I've probably done it !
  5. Leather neck pouch - no bits of fluff and you can always get to it !
  6. Be careful what you wish for.............................
  7. I reckon Brian Blessed would be good company...................
  8. Just out of interest, has anyone actually been granted the EA tags to trap ? How difficult to get were they ? I've heard quite a few instances of guys being refused, and can only guess this was for non-target protection ?
  9. Not surprised - it's f***ing disgusting......................!
  10. catching crays is not classed as fishing, its trapping, crayfish can get everywhere, they walk across land to find mates, so its down to you to do some leg work, piece of string and bit of bacon, then simply do test dunks on patches of water near to where you live, streams/rivers/ponds/lakes etc, if you pull up a red signal crayfish, you have found your spot, then simply apply to the environment agency for some tags, you can have upto 10, so ask for 10, give them the location, if they give you tags, it means that no native crayfish are in the area, if they refuse, its because of that How do yo
  11. Won't be rude enough to enquire what's wrong, just hope you recover quickly and soon. All the best, buddy !
  12. Approach whoever runs your local allotments..................
  13. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2621886/GPs-vote-charging-patients-10-25-appointment.html
  14. I reckon these dogs are called 'Woodbine' - every day, they get taken out for a drag ! (I'll get my coat !)
  15. My wife has a super-tiny JRT X Chihuahua (I know............. !) Call it a mongrel or cross-breed..........£50 tops. BUT call it a Jackahua and I'm separated from £300 !
  16. Remember 'Love thy Neighbour' ?....................'Mind your Language' ?
  17. ...........but you have to admire the resilience of dogs.
  18. That's what's needed ! More irresponsible breeding....................
  19. Assuming no third party was injured, I'd go down this road............... First offence - minimum 2 year ban, £1000 fine (plus pay for any damage !) and re-take your test before you're allowed back on the road. Second offence - Banned for life and either unlimited fine or prison sentence of up to 6 months.
  20. I read somewhere that Stephen Fry was writing a screenplay for a remake of Dambusters (probably already been made and aired) and he has called the dog "Digger" as it is "more acceptable" in this day and age. I wonder if he had the Dambusters flying Stealth bombers to make it more up to date? If you watch repeats of the original, it's dubbed over so Richard Todd says 'Digger' !
  21. That was my initial point, Socks. A DJ plays a very old record containing a word, and he gets sacked, despite protestations of innocence and apologising for any offence. Over on Radio InDaHood, they have Jay Zed, Puff Dudley and Nefarious BIG (or whatever the prats call themselves) uttering it several times in one sentence ! I've heard white lads calling each other 'nigger' ! (Mind you, they probably pronounced it 'nigga' - they did have their trousers almost at their knees and their caps on sideways !)
  22. Radio Devon probably has an elderly audience. In my experience, OAP's say 'n****r' and wonder what the fuss is about !
