« on: 04 April 2020, 13:15:17 »Looking for £2700 on
It's a loverly car my friend.
However I am always amused by the phrase
I'm looking for £.....
You can look all you like, but you won't find it in my wallet.
Have you tried under the mattress?
Small things amuse me.
Would have thought this would suit you given the mileage you do NewPod

I think the story goes he was a farmer and petrolhead and wanted to start up a magazine he approached the bank for a starter loan which they refused, he asked would they lend him money for a combine which they would so he used that cash to start EVO

« on: 31 March 2020, 21:49:03 ».I guess you wasn't a rugby fan then, as a game of soggy biscuit is the norm after a game.Teenage lads these days don't know they're born.
An endless supply of porn on the net and no crusty mags under the bed for their Mum's to find.
Ah yes . The joy of peeling back stuck together pages of Fiesta. Readers wives offered assistance if memory serves.
Swapping porno's with your mate and then later on finding that he'd stuck the pages together...
Noooooo.......I never went to these lengths.
Or the 'communal wanking' groups that some went in for........including the Beatles.
Too gay by far.
Blimey memories of being a you'ff.
I still struggle to watch a flake advert.
She had beautiful lips the girl in that ad ,she's probably got dentures now though..😃

« on: 27 March 2020, 16:19:01 »I don't begrudge the people who are leading the country, or members of the royal family a test. I thought you loved Donald, when did you turn commie?I didn't
Don’t begrudge their testing, but not sure how they expect to track the progress without testing... Unless that's the point
Lack of testing obviously helps hide the progression, shame though as there are scores of staff off in our trust who are sorely needed on the wards. Word is testing for staff may be in 14 days at the earliest

Been driving round the city dropping prescriptions into pharmacies and people on the whole seem to be complying, couple of odd bits though, gardeners on the retail park mowing lawns and why the hell do tile/flooring shops need to be open ??
