Should we wait until the peri track is resurfaced? The live rounds tank day took its toll.
It certainly did, the McAsphalt team are still working on it. They've done a good job so far.There's still a useable stretch from behind the Control Tower down towards the Small Barn. Didn't help the High Speed Hot Dog Trolley much but that was down to mechanical issues rather than the track itself.

karaoke is wrong at any time let alone when using walkie talkie!!!!
I couldn`t agree more.ION; Still suffering from the after effects of my earlier bilious attack, brought on by the Lardy cake, thus rather delicate so could really do without Mrs Jim AK`s suggestion of the installation of a Woodburner in the `Garden Room` (out house) here at Jim AK Acres & looking at the things in the Bay of Fleas.

With the water tower down that way you could flood the track and stay with the full wets.
We might well try that when we run the Hot Dog again. It was on slicks and the track was a bit damp when it last went into the hedge. Mind, there's probably little that would have helped when the bloody afterburner ignited.Anyhow, is there anything in particular you'd like in the light of your 'procedure' old chap? We've got a 30 minute window between 22.00 & 22.30 to get a trolley out.

To be fair when the afterburner did ignite it was a sight to behold!!!

Volunteering to help with the "Dickys emergency trolley" effort, unless of course that fing pelican is roaming about!!!!

It was a sight to behold, it's a good thing the W.I. weren't any closer with their Victoria Sponge trolley coming the opposite way.To be fair when the afterburner did ignite it was a sight to behold!!!
You're most welcome to help with the extra trolley old chap, Penrose is in his bunker now watching The Dambusters.
Afterburner. There's the key, d'ye see? It has to be Cajun tonight.
Small party of sound chaps to the Anderson Shelter behind the Small Hanger. Mrs Bullock's Coop number on the combination lock and retrieve the Cajun Trolley currently in use as empty jam jar store. It's in the right hand corner at the back under the Muleta from the Spanish Job. (That's Matador's cape to you and me. It's red.) Replace Cajun Trolley with the one liberated from the Alfresco Cuisine Burger Van heist. No one will know for ages - if ever. Job's a good un. When the grub's ready, I'll be discreetly counting Battert's paces as he drives the aircon with the treadmill behind the bar as he serves. If you ever have to do it, try to keep him down to five figures. He has to make breakfast and we need him in shape.

Further to the earlier biography of the Batterts can anybody shed further light on Penrose please? I was retiring to the blue room for the night with a tot of sloe gin and a roll of gaffer tape for that infernal sash window when I saw him striding purposefully along the top corridor a moment ago.
I was expecting an altercation but he was clearly preoccupied with an alternative vendetta as he bade me cheerful goodnight and made haste along his way.
PTSD perhaps?

Well that's a little peculiar, I have never heard him speak before I always assumed he was mute!! The only sound I've heard him utter is a blood curdling scream just before he goes into full on savage mode!!

How are you this fine morn young sir? No after effects after, well, you know, having you know what inserted you know where??
Feeling a lot better thanks, Bobberoo. A day of system flush and a day of being poked about. Odd experience all round really but not without humour. During the procedure I was watching the same screen the doctor was using to steer around my insides. All appeared well to my untutored eye until suddenly he proclaimed he had found a polyp and it needed cauterising. It was a nasty yellow headed thing and I agreed it should be killed to death immediately. It turned out to be a piece of sweet corn.Bomma220 said:
Penrose has a limited vocabulary, he'll come out with the odd word or phrase occasionally. Bit like a parrot does I suppose.
Breakfast trolleys are down at dispersal ready to go
Shame he hasn't suffered the same fate as the Monty Python Parrot if you ask me.Breakfast trolleys are down at dispersal ready to go
fking Pelican!!

Well my lovely other half proclaimed last night that she plans to UNPACK the already packed case and check everything off her list, AGAIN!!!!!! I see a night of checking, re-checking and re-re-checking ahead of me, at least I managed to persuade her NOT to leave tonight, thanks for that JimAK!!!

Leaving tonight would avoid all that check & recheck nonsense & if she forgets anything it will be your fault anyway!I believe we've all heard the PPPPPPP mantra, yes?

Not sure why that fking Pelican has said Good morning either, I've no doubt someone will pay later.

I am also sure you are correct in your assessment of that fing Pelican's future plans for some poor unsuspecting soul!!
