      Good luck to our Tim.

      Interesting programme was on the other night. Amazing to think that the reliable Soyuz rocket design is almost 50 years old.

  3. Ravy Davy sitting at the table opposite me has his music so loud, the guy next to me is typing to the same rhythm. Happy peaceful commute home!

  4. Type 'A long time ago in a galaxy far far away ' into Google.

      The best things always are!

  5. Haggis curry and chips, with a dose of Clash of the Titans (the Ray Harryhausen version of course). Happy Friday!

  6. Chocolate covered Malted Milks - childhood memories with an added hint of decadence.

  7. Poor day on the trains. Southern? I wouldn't let them run a bath.

      Yes, bring Connex back... they were great.

  8. Just caught sight of what looks to be a Scotland liveried class 170 at Selhurst depot. The first of Southern's extra units?

      Thanks auto 'correct'...that should be Scotrail!

  9. Mac and cheese, absinthe and Bela Lugosi. Pre-halloween at its best!

      Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder...

  10. has had a good morning. Star Wars tickets booked at Waterloo IMAX and just been told my BR38 has had its chip fitted...and it's Friday!

  11. perhaps Acer should change their tag line. 'Explore Beyond Limits' on the currently non-responsive front screen is somewhat ironic at best...

      Boldly Going Where It's Been Before?

      HIt it with one of those Acer spades?

  12. sitting outside East Croydon due to 'a train on the platform'. Isn't that where the passengers should be?

      Heard today that an alternative route for the Brighton Line is planned. Reinstating something I've forgotten.

      East Croydon. Change here for UK Visas and Immigration at Lunar House....

  13. If the phrase 'so-called' was struck from the English language, most journalists would run out of adjectives.

    1. Ozexpatriate

      Ozexpatriate

      Along with "alleged"

  14. has just tried a bacon cupcake. Not entirely convinced bacon works with butter cream icing...

    1. Horsetan

      One of Elvis's favourite delicacies?

  15. Went to see Hamlet at the Barbican Thursday night...Bishop Brennan was in it. Wasn't kicked up the arse though.

      Cultures collide!

  16. "I was like; he was like; they were like; she was like; it was like..." AAAGH! If the word 'like' was struck from the lexicon, some people would have nothing to say!

      Interstingly, the 'original' geordy use of like was not annoying at all, like.

  17. Why do companies feel the need to have people with stupid grins and masses of teeth to advertise their products? "Buy our product and you too can look like a gurning idiot!".

      Gurning through a horse collar ? Equestrian R'us !

      No excuse to run 18.201....

  19. Appreciate there have been matters out of their control, but 0 out of 10 to Southern for their woeful communication. Come on guys, you should do so much better.

  20. Hell hath no fury than a fish tank scorned! There were a few words I haven't heard in the Bible reminding me it was ten minutes past feeding time.

      Ahh a film suitable for the Sci Fi channel, where films aren't released... they escape

      Definately falls under the classification of 'so crap its crap'... Still, it 'stars' Jedward, the Hof and Penn & Teller.

      I thought there were 2 excuses... No 1 and No 2... the local ad to me has the comment "they are so bad they are good"

  22. has just caught sight of the Battle of Britain 75th anniversary flypast from my office window. Very impressive!
