Bacon baguettes from Greggs this morning.

Sometimes slumming it is the only answer.

We have them bloody barking all night it's a pain and can't grow anything they might eat. My Sniper mate gets 2-3 a year in the garden but it's not enough. OH saw a bambi last week and said ooh there's a fawn but I just saw it as future target so kept schtum.

Ah. The ones I saw are a good couple of miles from the house so don't cause us any problems like that thankfully.

Sniper you say?

"When we built Stonehenge we had to drag those big stones all the way from Wales. Woe is us."



They only had their own narrow guage railway, didn't they? Gits.

Well I'll be... All this time they had everyone going too.

Excellent spot there Dicky, I'm sure some sort of reward must be in order?

I had one yesterday, and another today. Managed to spend them too.
Got 4 the other day. Quite like them, they don't stick together like the brand new normal ones do. Some guy on e bay sold 3 with consecutive numbers for £495 when they first came out. Can't remember the numbers and can't find the story now.

What were the other options - drinking battery acid or sticking your nuts in a blender?

Personally I know which I would prefer

If you didn't recognise it,I was at Castle Combe today,after failing to go there last Saturday.
It was the Autumn Classic today.

Spotted David Brabham,turned he was there to drive one of his father's creations in the lunch parade.

Nick Mason sent his GTO,just a £30M car,no security,not roped off,not even a please don't touch sign.....cool

Decided not to use the bus shelter,there was a tramp urinating in it when I arrived,so I used the Gents's karsy at Russell Square tube station instead,the WiFi there is awesome.
