i have that book One Thousand Places To See Before You Die'. Have not gone through it for where I've been. However, I found a nice gem of a place near me in that book that never knew about, have not gone to it yet, only an hour drive to it too. I guess what I am saying is ---the book helps...

I agree, you aren't under the thumb, you just don't take her for granted. There is a world of difference between "please may I" and "do you mind if"

That's a lovely gift, Sam. Who wouldn't be proud to receive it...

At my age I only go flying in the hope that I might be frisked by a pretty young female. :hehe: Alright! They don't even have to be that pretty or that young!!!! I can't afford to be too fussy :rotfl: :rotfl:

I think that point is central to all that's wrong with government. If we had a system whereby politicians got a maximum salary of say £30k plus £10k central London allowance (for the increased cost of living), they'd still be on a good wage but not an astronomical wage. Strip away their...

It wouldn't work with me, I haven't paid income tax for years so I know I haven't got any refunds.Of course, we all pay VAT but they don't refund that.

I use the 'img' code myself, not the direct link one. I then paste that code into whatever thread it is

Dai. Do you know how many versions of "Men of Harlech" there are? It's a great film, the History tells a different story.:wink:

Many thanks to you all I have just got a data cable of e-bay for £3.50

I agree with Pete. There is a problem with plastic, but in this case its not so much the plastic that's the problem but the people. I went to a very strick first school, where it was absolutely taboo to drop any litter at all - sweet papers or any thing else. You were heavily disciplined if you...

Congratulations, Roders. First thing to do is to ditch your alarm clock. Next, and very importantly, enjoy every single moment of your life and do the things you've always wanted to. Ah yes, and spend as much time in your garden as you did in your job... Retirement can be bliss, and you can take...

i did read up on win7 sounds good but i think i will go with the info you are all giving thank you all

Hello everyone,I was wondering if anyone here would consider allowing me to film them in their garden? It would involve giving a short tour of the garden and describing the maintenance involved. Iâ??m an art student working with film, and looking at the ways that people spend their...

Caj .... :luv: I agree with you Peter on your last comment, having lived in the States probably when this all started. However, I remember the reason actually being that $2.99 was FAR LESS in appearance than $3 so it 'enticed' a customer to purchase that item.

Plant, so glad everything has turned out good for you. Take it easy at first and you'll be fighting fit in no time. Funnily enough I heard this morning about a man who has had a kidney transplant and is so full of life now, so much energy he has got an allotment, built a shed there, going to...

freedom brill pics, like the pumpkin flickering

For me, it was pretty accurate. For my missus, it was way way off, in fact it was so far off it wasn't even in the same universe I reckon.
