Sort of like a reverse flounce?

No stubble today, give him one from me please.

Well, seeing as it's Friday...

Heh, talking of grumpy people...Chuffy is very well, thanks.

No idea quite when he will return, but will no doubt wait until he thinks everyone is starting to forget who he is the anticipation has built to fever pitch before making a melodramatic grand entrance, no doubt

Tell him I miss him, Baggy. He was a lifeboat of calm and reason in a maelstrom of storms and tsunamis......
(Ed: enough bollix now Rich, just shut it)

Ooh - has made me think about sucking up tea using a Cadbury's Spira. Like a little bit of Heaven on your tongue

BTW, say thanks to the Chuffster for the Robert Millar book. I got it today.

Are you sure that you will be able to cope.... I take it a LOT of drink will be consumed - wasn't half those things on your list of foods you were giving up?

It was Pilic Izgara (chicken, rice <which it turns out I'm fine with> and salad) for me with a few glasses of wine, rather than my 'usual' of Izkender (Donner, Shish, Chicken, Kofte with rice, yoghurt, spicy sauce & pitta) and copious amount of Efes to wash it down.

Not quite the same but enjoyable enough

I found this very funny and a little rude.

May I recommend some lights that run on Ever Ready batteries? Your bike would feel more comfortable with some vintage lights.

(Oh, those rectangular ones that ran on D cells, where you got about half an hour of light and carrying spares only cost you about 3 kilos...

We used to have a Roberts radio, ran on a 4.5 volt battery, huge square thing with clip on terminals. When I look at a modern teeny radio running on button cells, I remember watching Dad change that battery every couple of years (he kept a note of how much each one cost, alas we got rid of it when the radio finally died), and feel old....

The radio had a dial with all the old radio stations on - Daventry and Hilversum and all those. It's the sort they've recreated in DAB form, with a leatherette coating and metal grill.

(only now it's shiny black, not leatherette).

I still have my Hacker Ranger 2 band, long wave/ medium wave, radio. Ran on a large square battery, 9volt I think, in the end I rigged it up to run on a mains adapter.
