He used to live next door but one to a mate of mine!! I was lucky as I was there (the high street) on Monday evening. A few days earlier and it might have been me on the receiving end 😂😂

I have never met you, but from your strong words I now know you. I have raised a glass for you with a tear rolling down my face and wish you a peaceful journey to your next adventure. if you do have the chance to read this I will leave you with these wise words and hope they bring a smile to you. “When I go I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my Dad, not screaming in terror like his passenger” {Bob Monkhouse} Good night Sir

Delivered by the uni party I think you mean. Apparently there is a large population in London of people from Chagos and they are up in arms about this. Their (Labour) mp was on the radio lambasting the decision. Remember, they have given the islands (archipelago) to Mauritius, not to the natives. All to appease China

Shhhh!! She might read this. Don’t want to ruin the surprise 😂 Size was dictated by the existing base. This isn’t for a workshop -lawnmower, scarifier, bikes plus stuff from garage that aren’t needed in the house. Hopefully the garage will become more of a workshop -

Just an update - with a demanding job, demanding family, shortening evening light and weather that made me think I should have built an ark and not a shed - I have a bit of headway. Built a door in my space limited garage over the past few days, hinged, braced and heavy, with a mortise lock and got it hung. Made up that the hinge cut outs I done a couple of weeks ago lined up perfectly with a bit bit of fettling to the lining, and the outside (lock) was just catching the bottom so off it came again, a quick trim with the track saw and on it went again and perfect fit!!! let the cladding begin - at the weekend!!!! -
Is this the slow trek back into the folds of the EU?? Owee will be unable to contain his glee. 11 days until it was to come into effect - it has cost the company I work for a lot of money getting ready for it!!

We used to go to The Windrush when we lived in Cartoontown - 20+ years ago. Used to do a carvery back then But wasn’t the pub up for sale and not getting much interest? The alternative might have been developers and houses?? Look what they done with Cartoontown and all the houses they built there!

@TIGHTCHOKE somewhat jealous. We did apply for tickets but then Jezza didn’t get his steak!!

Well, Clarkson, May and Hammond have stepped down. A very good last special episode. My eldest and I planned it, closed the doors and watched all two hours of it. It used to be a highlight of my week, Sunday night, sat there with him, watching Top Gear, laughing our heads off. As he is just over 21, so, this has been all of his life so far. We both had a tear in our eyes at the end and we had a Dad/son non-BBC hug 😂 and I thanked him for being my partner in crime for all the years. Was it the show or our bonding through the show - who knows - but it has been a blast 😀 I know the Trinity can be devisive on here - you are free to not like them just as well as being allowed to be absolutely wrong about it 😂😂

I enjoyed him when he went on the Big Bang theory big loss!!

🤞 tbh he is an a* student. Could have done anything he set his mind to! Thanks 😊
