Have you been overdoing the porridge, Scrump?

I may have had a wee dram or two last night.
Now enjoying haggis and square sausage for breakfast.

That's a lawn sausage if ever I saw one.

So what are you doing in Poole?

[Bobberoo99]

Lawn sausage????

So what you're saying slopes, is that you arrive at work looking like a 12 year old boy dressed in an anorak and glowing like you've just returned from Chernobyl????

Don't you try playing the innocent with me, young man!
Call yourself a PH'er?

I thought it was a duffle coat, but I stand to be corrected.
"Central 'eating for kids."

A quick Google shows we are both correct!!!

I did the same. There were more anoraks than duffle coats though.
Probably why so many kids are anoraxic.

You give 'em a hearty bowl of warm gloop and then send them off to get abducted by a lorry driver:

Morning chaps
It was 3 Degrees on the way into westillhaven'tsortedtheheatingout.com, but there is news on that front............

Impeccable taste in music, Bobbers. Prince Charles was also a fan of theirs.

When will we see you again?

You may be snookered by the flooding.

[Scrump]

Poole!
That explains why I am the only one wearing a kilt.

So that probably wasn't bagpipes that I heard last night.

Do you also find as you get older, "stuff" starts to hang down below the hem of your Kilt????

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.

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

I know they were from BL but they’re not related engine or body wise. Quite distinct shapes and one of them wasn’t a piece of crap from new! (I’ve owned numerous Marinas and even the 1.8. All crap).
I nearly bought an Ital but that was even worse.

My mum had a yellow Avenger Tiger. Don’t remember it being fast but she later told us “boy racers” always tried to get her to race.

You are correct Glenners

I was being facetious. Every era of cars have cars with style similarities with other cars from the same era. The Avenger from the Routes group and later Chrysler was similar in style to the Marina from BL.

Some of your jokes really don't work, do they?

I know. It's called suffering for your art.

[DickyC]

Suffering for your lawn sausage.

No, what is it?

Only one out of four ads I viewed depicted a kid wearing a duffle coat*. The rest had anoraks/kagools/waxed jackets etc.

So Bobbers was 300% more correct than I.


* Please look after this Pooh thankyou.

Or it might just be indigestion?

You're being particularly introspective today old chap, do you need a virtual hug???

[DickyC]

No disrespect intended towards your virtual hug but actual physical sensations do it for me.

A few spline twisting launches in something quick off the mark would cheer me up better.

Although we could try a real hug if no one's about. See how that goes.

It was the Rootes Group, Dicky.

You know, the ones who made the RooteMaster buses?






Incidentally, before I pop off, what was the car that our Tone was sat in in that pic? Was it a Maserati? Whatever it was, it has a nice shapely haunch,
