  1. Has the Parking A**hole - sorry - Attendant got a photo? If not, argue the badge WAS on the dashboard..... polybear
  2. As a kid on Holiday I used to love looking round "Hobby Horse" at the Thomas A Beckett, Worthing. Went downhill a bit in the last few years of its existence, sadly now long gone.... polybear
  3. Why not try the words "I thought we'd do Eastwood Town today......."? Perhaps Mrs. S could start off with something like sanding down baseboards.... polybear
  4. Hi Tony, Sorry - it's Brian Tulley. However, I would like to point out that: (1) It couldn't have been me, cos' I wasn't there.... (2) But if I was there, I know nothing about it.... Kind Regards, Brian
  5. Hi Tony, I've just purchased one of these (HSS 1/8" Taper Reamer) from RDG Tools, for just under £9 delivered, which was the cheapest price I could easily find; I've purchased from RDG before (usually at Engineering Exhibitions) and have never had any problems re quality etc. HTH polybear

  9. It's always worth remembering the endless pleasure it obviously gave him - that's surely priceless.....
  10. Anything for sale on Ebay that includes the word "RARE" in the title immediately gets a no-vote from me. Who are these jokers trying to kid?
  11. Watchable, but doesn't even come close to the original, sadly Has given me a pretty good idea for a new entrance to the railway room though.... polybear
  12. Currently watching the Muppets on TV; reminded me of this:

      Best Muppet moment ever!

      When you said "muppets on TV", I initially thought you meant the seven political "leaders", who were on ITV a few days back.

       

      However, I quickly realised my mistake.

       

      Jim Hensen's ones are far better - far more intelligent - and actually funny (instead of just imagining that they are).

       

      Ever get the impression that I don't rate politicians - of any party?

  13. Tomorrow, 5pm, ITV, Thunderbirds. Nuff sed??

  15. Why is it that every Hire car I drive isn't as good as my good ol' Ricky the Rover (214)? Except maybe the Dodge Charger...but that was in Kuwait and I could fill the tank for eight quid (mind you, you could boil a kettle in the time in took the auto box to kick down....)

  16. billy no-mates in prezzos :( At least the boss is picking up the tab. I'd better makes sure it's a big one... :)

  17. Oh c'mon Gordon....I've been visiting E.T. at least twice a day ever since the last post on page 85, hoping for the latest update. And now you tell us you've been "Too Busy" messing about with an overgrown Goldfish Bowl?? And then, to add insult to injury, you tell us you're off bashing a ball around a field for a couple of months... Don't worry about us - you go ahead and enjoy yourself. We'll struggle along somehow Maybe I'll start reading Peterborough North instead. Gilbert's got more pages than you. A very sad polybear.
