Quite a feat! I'd like to see how he gets the bricks down.

To right Pete, i've got a couple that i've been trying to car boot. Trouble is West bay has switched over now so no one needs em.

You mean you live in "The Shades" as in the Discworld series :D That was it, the sweeps festival. great fun, beards bells & brews. The pics are from Unknown Kent by Donald Maxwell, printed by Bodley Head in 1921. I got a copy for £15 but they go for £30-40 now.

Definitely Panasonic, JVC or Samsung, all are usually very very good. Of course if you have won the lottery then go for Bang & Olufsen!!!Val

There's a lot of truth there Ziggy. I've known women like that too :flag:

So pretty and white.

Thanks for that Chris. Couldn't get our cars up the drive yesterday, but that's not too unusual around here, it only needs a few inches and freezing temperatures to create the pack ice. It's also snowing again with us, looks like I might be having another 'holiday' tommorow at home.

Blimey, is one of them the roundabout by the supermarket ? Where it gets on to the road that runs round the reed beds, to the gasomitter ?

I'll drink to that ! Then again, I'll drink to anything Cheers, To Saint Andrew.:pala:

:D

:hehe::hehe: Ouch!!!

Don't worry about the newspaper Ziggy, only if you can find it.Out in the garden I've found 100s of old clay tobacco pipe pieces in the topsoil. I'm sure you know what they are Ziggy, the Victorian and earlier farm workers used them to smoke, they were mass produced and when they broke...

Thats a long time since I heard that, what a memory you have Ziggy! Really made me laugh and unfortuately reminded me of some silly risks I've taken (and not always got away with :o)

Hmmm, not sure he's that well behaved, I didn't know the police had them too!!!!

Thanks Ziggy, a very enjoyable moment.

Nice bit of history on a far away place. Thanks for sharing.

What are you doing on here at this point in your birthday Alice ? Would have thought Hubby, toenail or not, would be whisking you out for a nice bottle of red wine & at least a fennel au gratain.?

Both wonderful creatures merit special positions in life. And are ment to supply special needs of humans. Presently we are dog less. Its is harder with a dog, they are so demanding. Need most done for them. But they do give back a lot. We have now 10 cats, most live outside and have heated...

happy birthday Alice, hope you're having a good one!!!!

We haven't forgotten you Rhyleysgranny. Sorry to hear about your MIL but good that she's on the mend. Good to hear from you today. Look forward to having you back with us when things calm down for you. Take care.
