Yes she will - drinking pints of Guinness too! !laughing!

Count me in Eric.........

Bread Poltice fer the boil on yer neck....... Lion Ointment........ Cow 'eal sandwiches...........

Don't eat it mesen - can't stomach the smell either - yuk. Went out on a sponsored night to the Ice Stadium a few year ago and watched the old footballers from loads of teams play off in some sort of competition. Afterwards, the sponsor (solicitor) said, right then, we are going to the Indian on Goldsmith Street for meal. I could have died.......... I ended up having a nibble at some sort of Chicken dish which, I must say, 'lingered in the exit tract' for a few days. Never again will I step foot in an Indian restaurant for food. That said, we are at present fixing the broken air con in the

Firbeck Sorry to read about your loss. Never easy I know. I thought that these might cheer you up. Enjoy.

Some of us went to the last one....... me and Craig !cheers! Craig - sorry about the photo.....I keep forgetting. Doh!

Well I thought that the 'cancer gamblers' were being very considerate by stubbin' their dog ends out on the top of the bin. After all, if they threw 'em into the bin the vagrants and 'down & outs' would have to go a rummagin'. At least this way, they can see what's on offer before they they pick 'em up. But..................................if it rains, it'll make 'em harder to light. !laughing!

Nah..... she anin't got no medals....

Just hover your mouse over it Stan then right click and 'save image as'

OK The date moves from year to year, but, do you still partake? I managed 7 before I ran out of the mixture Mrs Frank left for me (she goes out on Tuesday nights) What is your favourite topping? Mine's sugar and freshly squeezed orange juice. My dad used to like jam and milk !hungr! Do you ex-pats still celebrate Pancake Day? And no comments about tossing please !laughing!

Eric mate....... please tell Mary that Nottingham is an ENGLISH city. We are not British, United, Kingdom, European, or Polish, we are ENGLISH. !! Did you realise that you spelt CENTER the US way? English mate... Centre. Nuf said. P S Hope you are buying the next time we meet in the Poacher !clapping!

Please e-mail this directly to No.10 and ask the present occupant to stand up in Parliament on next PM's question time and repeat it. Fat chance. The man has no Ba**s.

Ask any 'Hoodie' and I'm sure they would agree - muggin' tourists is easy pickings Eric..... you have spent toooooooo much time away from this 'fair' city to make a statement like that. It may have been in times past but now... well, it's not safe to venture out after dark, and as for great shopping - don't make me laugh. It looks just like any other city, same shops, same prices, lack of choice etc, etc. and crap all over the floor - especially outside McDonalds, Bu$$er King, SubWay et al. Can't argue on this one though !laughing!

It was nice to meet up Craig - even though it cost me £5 fer the privilage Great music and atmosphere and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the beer. The IPA slipped down a treat -- until it ran out at 10:30 What was all that SALSA stuff about - the second spot really killed the mood? Just might make the effort again.

A good allrounder then......RU Polish? !laughing!

Try contacting the local riding school to see who puts the horse shoes on - there must be a blacksmith somewhere. As John says, cast iron is a funny beast and must be 'worked' by those that know how to. Hit it with a hammer and it just snaps when cold. I've only ever sucessfully bronze welded cast iron once. Has to be heated 'red hot' throughout prior to welding otherwise it cracks.

Yep... I'll be in there about 8 to 8:30. Looking forward to trying these 'special offers on drinks'.

Are they married??????????

Well look at that, the Palais is built on the site of the old Police/Fire Staion with a Jail on the back. Isn't history fascinating? - not my strongest subject at school, but really interesting now.

Haven't got a MIDDLE name....so I never knew when 'it' was coming.

More like a Realist Firbeck.. Keep on posting.....that's wot I say.

Hi Firbeck Do you still live in Finchinfield? I know it quite well.

Why don't they have that philosophy in the Poacher. Pint finished, fill it up again.......that's wot I say.

Just thought I would let you know..... I've written to the CO-OP and asked if the Divi accounts of all my family members from years ago had any positive balances. If they have , I've asked if they could forward all outstanding balances to me. The numbers were all attached to my letter. I'll let you know how much i get. Thanks folks !rotfl!

Thanks for the update Rog... been a bit quiet on here with Beefy away !laughing! Look forward to seeing the pictures with the new lens. ............just hope the 'MONOPOD' did it's job
