  1. You can still buy egg slicers. Saw one in Morrison's the other day.....I reckon most just mash eggs with a fork, these days. You don't see avocado bathrooms because they're f***ing horrible !
  2. Ingles gym ? No,no,no.....they're both Nottingham lads ! When I went there it was called The Pulse. Not far from Sneinton market (Tomo might know it). Owned by Tony "Can't for the life of me remember his name" but I think it was Laing - himself a British champion......it was 20 years ago ! If memory serves, Fidel had pretty much called it a day, and Delroy was in his twilight.....like I said, though, both still waaaaay too good for me ! I'm positive Brendan ingle trained the boy slugger otoole at some point. Even if they are way too good for you that's still some experience trading hands w

  4. "Last dam run of likker I'll ever make" (His spelling, not mine before anybody starts !) Him and JB Rader built a wood fire still from scratch........great film ! The old fella committed suicide, rather than be sent to prison, but his recipe is made under licence now - and very tasty it is, too !
  5. Indeed it is ! Marvin 'Popcorn' Sutton........king of the moonshiners !
  6. There's a 4* hotel in Nottingham ? There's a hotel in Nottingham??? WTF for So Tomo can throw people of of it !
  7. New one on me. Not the sort of place your find me, anyway !
  8. There's a 4* hotel in Nottingham ?
  9. Our old chums at PETA are holding their "Sexiest Vegan Next Door" contest. You know the type of thing - lower self esteem, contribute to eating disorders etc etc....... So, while they oppose animals being treated like meat, they have no problem doing it to people ! Have look at the contestants...see what you think - and keep it clean ! https://www.peta.org/features/sexiest-vegan-next-door-contest-2017/vote/
  10. Xanda, son of Cecil, killed my hunter ? Is this "Game of Thrones"......'cos I don't watch that, either !
  11. Bumped into Henry Cooper, waiting for his missus outside Dorothy Perkins. I shook hands with the hand that decked Cassius Clay.....absolute gentleman ! Similar encounter with Frank Bruno.....another smashing fella, happy to meet people, sign autographs and generally lark about !
  12. I use to train at the same gym as Delroy Bryan and Fidel Castro Smith ("Slugger O'Toole"), two of the less known British boxing champions. Sometimes had a bit of a spar with them - cracking lads, both of them - too good for me, mind !
  13. As long as they're from Dickinson and Morris - "Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe".........unbeatable !
  14. Why does a flat garage roof always have a shoe on it ? How does a 2p get under the cooker ?
  15. I'd talk about football or f*** up Top Gear for a lot less ! Graham Norton and David Dimbleby, for instance, are paid through a production company, so they probably 'earn' a lot more than the given figure ! Far from being a government stooge, I think that the BBC has been set up up for this, by forcing them to publish pay figures, knowing that it would cause this kind of furore. Successive governments, particularly of the blue persuasion, have had it in the BBC, and done everything in its power to undermine the Corporation. I completely accept that this is public money, and we h
  16. All foetuses start off identically until the Y gene kicks in later in development, by which time the nipples have already formed. I guess to keep their feet warm? So, really, we're all gender neutral, (at some point anyway).
  17. Because gentlemen dressed themselves, but ladies had a maid to help them, meaning that, to the helper, the buttons fastened the right way (if that makes sense ?).......or it could be the other way round......
  18. Oi ! Santa Claus, ya c*** - where's me f***in' bike ?
  19. Should say "Zanko" or "Zanco" or whatever my spell checker thinks it will be the time !
  20. There are growing calls for an enquiry into allegations of electoral Fraud, by students, that could have inflated Labour's vote share at the last general election...... http://www.westmonster.com/calls-for-investigation-into-students-voting-twice-for-labour/
  21. I stood behind Spandau Ballet in a queue at the old Scratchwood services in the early 80s. I waited for an autograph for my girlfriend (later my first wife) who was a huge fan. They all insisted on coming over to meet her, signed a Xmas card and gave her a kiss and a hug........my daughter tells me she still has the card ! I've sat a few times watching cricket at Trent Bridge with Brian Clough - of course, the great man knew everything there was to know about cricket !
  22. I just had a look at the Sandi on eBay...... How you supposed to hold that up to your ear ?!?
  23. If I could "un-invent" just one thing.........
