      Mmm, I don't like the sound of that. Always look busy.

  3. This is the Modern World - Jam
  4. Make one of these: From one of these:
  5. I'll Fly for You - Spandau Ballet
  6. In a similar vein, there was a guy who made such a song and dance about taking scrap timber home from his place of work for the fire. Made sure he had a ticket signed by the boss and made sure the gate house keeper inspected it every time. It took several weeks for people to twig that he used a brand new wheelbarrow from the stores each time and none ever came back.
  7. I remember being shocked to see chips in Towyn (other spellings are available) on sale for 7p whereas they were 5 1/2p at home in 1974.
  8. I saw this, and thought of you. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Triang-Minix-00-Gauge-Black-Morris-1100-/170964878534?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item27ce4d04c6
  9. The CA is privately owned then, as the owner has replaced his number plates with modern white / yellow background types, even tho' he didn't need to. Quite a fad at the time, if you wanted to give the impression your ride was newer that it actually was.
  10. I don't want to get into an argument on what is definitely a side issue in this topic, but I feel that at the time, there was a disconnect between how BL saw their market for the RR, and the kind of punters who, initially, actually bought them. It took fully 10 years imho for their vision to become reality, and due credit to them too; they invented a new class of vehicle, later dubbed SUV, which was copied the world over.
  11. I feel I must disagree with your last suggestion. The Mk I Range Rover (none more than 4 years old in BCB era) was overwhelmingly the choice of the gentleman farmer and country set. The Chelsea Tractor phenomenon was unheard of at this time.
  12. I Love to Love - Tina Charles
  13. Keep the Home-Fires Burning - Ivor Novello
  14. The Whole of the Moon - Waterboys
  15. summer time blues - eddie cochran
