  1. Just pulled in. Welcomed by the rain with a 40mph wind. Still as Mrs C said when I moaned. You ain't made of sugar. Pretend to enjoy yersen.

  3. Talking of phones I just bought a One Plus 9 Pro. With the Hasselblad camera system installed whoever they are.
  4. On the lunchtime iron horse to Skeg tomorrow for a week. At least Skeg is not on any of Boris's amber or red lists so no need to quarantine when we return !
  5. Fly leaving this site was his own doing, not Ian's.
  6. Bought a T shirt from there last week. £22.50 (£75). Baseball cap £3.50 (£14) Who pays £75 for a T shirt ? My thoughts are Debenhams priced themselves out of business. Internet did not finish them off.

  14. Usually emptied by a conductor! Unofficially of course.
  15. I once worked at Turner's & knew a bloke who worked at PP Payne's, small world.
  16. I read recently the human heart is good for so many heartbeats only. So relax & make em last. All that exercise will kill you earlier
  17. Went to Mapperley Top today & had take away fish & chips on one of the benches at the Monument then spent a couple of hours in Woodthorpe Park making a fuss of a few dogs. What more could I ask for ?

  19. Similar scenario as per my example SG.
