Lovely, that's allayed my fears. Make mine a Blackwoods, please. Bombay Sapphire will suffice if there's no Blackwoods
Don't be cross, but I was somewhere recently where they had a Gin Menu but I can't remember where it was. A Gin Menu. Never seen such a thing.

I'm actually in quite a bit of pain now. But I don't like to make a fuss despite your very touching concern.

Retired to my pit, rattling slightly, and slurping a cuppa. Could be a quick slip into slumber or up all night complaining being a bit uncomfortable. Send no flowers, but I do like cookies.
Yes, sorry, I had to make a bit of point with a chap in the Classics Spotted thread.

He is so woefully pessimistic about pretty much everything that he makes one of iva's down days look like a week in Pontins.

Regarding the red or blue pills. Either, is my advice. I've never been able to taste the difference.

.............

During one of the government's Oh-No-Everyone's-Trying-To-Do-Away-With-Themselves phases I popped into a chemist for some Night Nurse.

"Is it to help you sleep?"
"Yes."
"Then I can't sell the to you."
"Because...?"
"You're using them as sleeping tablets."
"No, I'm not. I use them to do what they say they do on the packet."
"Can't sell them to you."

The shop round the corner did.

Lovely shade of Guards' Pink that Porsche is, too hehe

I'm not allowed Night Nurse on account of the railway being killjoys and not letting us take any of the best stuff. Some elf and safe tea rubbish about not falling asleep whilst in control of four hundred tonne projectiles rolleyes Yet I can get as blootered and incapable as I like on, say, gin... as long as I let my blood alchohol return to legal baselines. Much better for all involved. Clearly

If I look for the buffer, could you pop down and buy some T-Cut?

I do get around a bit and see stuff every day but stopping a truck for pics is another matter.

Saw an immaculate MGA in a tyre shop,top of Ladbroke Grove today.

I have a couple of locations to return to for the rotting thread too.

One's a Rolls Royce ,outskirts of Croydon.

Never again! irked One of the biggest mistakes in my automotive history was MR2 ownership (not only because it was quite possibly the worst MR2 in the entire known universe, un-mapped gamma quadrant or not) but also because it had faded almost so far it was out the other side of pink and into some weird shade of white only normally seen in Colgate adverts. Seriously;



I shortened my life quite markedly buffing, mopping, cutting, polishing, waxing and generally erasing any trace of my monkey tree-climbing friction skin on my fingerprints to the point where a career in safe-cracking might have been forthcoming.



and then it rained. And it went right back to pink. banghead And even more annoyingly, it remained an MR2 rage

That is why I refused non metallic red for my Fiesta when I bought it new.
I got metallic "Tango red" instead for no cost.

Let me check...

Atomic batteries to power...

Turbines to speed...

All seems okay, perhaps the heating is just not equal to the task. Have you looked outside?

The gauges are reading Seriously Parky.

Last night I dreamt that my fridge on the driveway should probably be moved somewhere more secure as my poorly wrapped burgers and remaining three pack of beer might be at risk of pilfering. irked


It may have been the feta cheese, but it was most likely the copious amount of pain killers. Still flippin' hurting this morning you won't be interested to know. Stay immobile or try to move about a bit? Perhaps a bit of both. Thank you Doctor.

Keep moving.
