  1. Possibly resulting in spontaneous combustion! There's nothing worse than finding a pound of Double Gloucester running out of the bottom when you open the door....
  2. Her brother must have been friends with Terry Scotts brother....
  3. I'm on so many "Lists" that I've forgotten which list that is... 🙃
  4. Not that frequently, though you do mention your shed, which seems to annoy some people... (I've a Garage and a Shed...)
  5. Dream A Little Dream Of Me - Doris Day
  6. Only in the equivalent of a tupperware* box please! Wouldn't want the sockiness to spread to edible items... * Other storage box systems are available.

    Well. Whoever assembled it in China worked from a kit of parts, and it must contain SOME metal, but yes, I know what you mean! 🤪 Going Cheap? At least they have the courtesy to start the listing at under the original selling price...
  8. Thanks. In as sarcastic a voice as I can manage.... At least you can't see the terrible jumpers he wore!
  9. What goes around comes around...
  10. Paddy McGintys Goat. It ate the note, and despite being stomach pumped, all they got was sixpence... Its a long time since I've heard the song!
  11. I remember seeing a Herald passing a line of parked cars, the offside was comfortably within the centreline of the road. A mumsie SUV following it overhung the line by a couple of feet... The Devil must have had further plans for the bu@@er.
  12. Must admit I've never used this remote-control shopping malarky. There's a Sainsbugs, a MegaTesco, an Asda, an M&S foodhall,, Local Tescos, Aldis and Lidls within a couple of miles and a Morrisons, another large Tescos, another M&S foodhall and another Asda within 5 miles radius. We're rather overserved by local supermarkets! I forgot, there's two more Aldi stores in the 5 mile zone, but one of the 2 mile zone Aldis has gone offline for refurbishment/enlargement...
  13. Yes, he's the sort to buy a Porsche 911 instead, take his new girlfriend out for Sunday lunch somewhere in the countryside to impress her, and wrap the pair of them around a tree on the way back...
  14. You had to ask your co-pilot to put the wipers on? 🤔 🤪
  15. In that case It'd be helpful if it took a photo of the person opening the door too, and one of the interior when the door was opened and when it was closed....
  16. More frequent but shorter trains is just a reversion to the principles of the Midland Railway...
  17. Looks like an updated Top Gear electric car!
  18. Audis attract Audi drivers, plonker and machine in perfect harmony... What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander!

    I was going by the cable colour, my Duette has grey cable, I associate black with more "modern" equipment. Thanks for pointing out the plug, must admit I've still got lamps that have white bakelite plugs on them...
  20. Another moment of satisfaction came from one of the digital channels police-chase programmes last night when an Audi, taken for insane driving and not collected, went into the crusher. The last shot was of four rather bent circles on the front of the former "vehicle"... 🤣
  21. Looking at the skintones, it seems that something went wrong with the colour balance in the Photoshop workflow...

    New Old Stock, perhaps. But the power cable looks anachronistic...

    And while we're on ebay madness, Its still there! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116115174483 Now down to £89.99 + £7.99 delivery charge.
  24. Hippo Bathday! I vaguely remember 77 Sunset Strip, mainly for the cars that seemed to be almost as wide as they were long, but nothing else, and the cars are probably a false memory thing too...
  25. As the saying goes, "Never blame a student when there's a BR employee about...". Though you wouldn't want to be branded as a knob twiddler* either! * Or the Phantom KT to boot...
