Are you deliberately trying to upset P5B???

Mrs Bobbers is watching Dr Pimple popper again!!!

It's alright Bobbers, I've had my mid afternoon nap, my tea time mug of coco and my post tiffin medication, I've already reached 'peak yearning for exotic foreign motors' and am now coming down from the astral plane quite nicely. An episode or two of 'The Persuaders' later with my evening Ovaltine should see me curling up in a dark corner somewhere, ready to do it all over again tomorrow. Tis a hard life being an inveterate daydreamer and no mistake.

A momentus domestic achievement has occurred in chez P5B, today I finished laying the flooring in the upstairs front boudiour but have run out of enthusiasm for any further DIY based exploits. It's in times of trouble like this that I take a step back, look wearily into the middle distance and ask myself ''what would our Rog and our Tone do...?''



Answers on a postcard to : The Persuaders Script Department, Elstree Studios, Just outside that London.

Is that a green Mk1 Escort or Hillman Avenger at the back?

Grill looks Avenger and I’d guess the car in front is the same model.

Morning chaps
It was 3degrees on the way into westillhaven'tsortedtheheatingout.com, but there is news on that front, the first of the heater/cooling units has turned up in the machineshop, and they've built the frame to mount it on, supposedly it will be mounted and commissioned on Wednesday............

Morning all

Yup, Avenger. If it had round headlights it would be a Marina.

I'm sat here in an aerospace machine shop wearing a sweatshirt over my teeshirt, gloves and beanie hat and I have a two bar heater in front of me and I'm still cold!!!

My dad told a story about working on Redhill Aerodrome in the Winter of 1947. The Drawing Office was one end of the hanger behind a glazed partition. Blokes stood at drawing boards in overcoats, hats, gloves and scarves. It's not easy to draw with thick gloves on, apparently. By 11 o'clock the temperature had got up to zero. Or thirty two Fahrenheit as it was then. In old money.

They were made of sterner stuff back then Dicky, not like us gender neutral, offended by everything, vegan friendly snowflakes of today!!!!

Surely that must have a detrimental affect on your tolerance, Bobbers?

As well as shrinking the size of your component.

Morning all.

ION, it's lashing down with rain and blowing a gale out there.
I might have a duvet morning until my dental appointment after lunch.

That's your mistake right there, should have worn a hoodie
In my quest to become healthier and get into shape....yes I know round is a shape but I quite fancy being rectanglar for a change...I have to accumulate 15,000 steps a day. So I walk to work.
3 miles each way despite only living 1.2 miles from work.
Anyone remember the Readybrek advert from the 70's/80's?? That me by the time I get to work

I like the idea of dentists making house calls. Bumping all their equipment upstairs to tend to their Duvet Patients.
"Now spit."
"Where?"
"In here."
"That's one of my slippers."
"Needs must Mr Duvet."

Now enjoying haggis and square sausage for breakfast.
