My Dad welded all the framework for the rocks from the chimp scene set of '2001: a space odyssey' at pinewood studio's and was actually asleep behind the set when they filmed it :smile:

Aye, that's me :laugh:

Are you? I assumed it was a joke or similar, but I didn't want to say.

Build up people get a 35% off, but during the show you have an exhibitor's lounge where tea is cheaper.

Yes I often went in there, but I did buy some things from you.

Coffee also, but it's s***e compared to mine
see you at the bike show?

What? you want to see this obvious 'weirdo' again?? :eek:
^_^
If you want weird, I was at a previous MRS and was just idly looking at a layout. This elderly chap suddenly appeared and told me, (as though I had known him all my life)

'See that platform? I stood exactly there (pointing) and took a picture of the station building there in 1963..... of course it is all a supermarket now, it closed in..... etc etc'.

Yes, very interesting, but just a bit random.^_^

Oh well, at least it demonstrated that the layout was good I suppose.

But no, I'm not from Iraq/Iran/Afghanistan whatever comes to my mind at the moment to shut people up, so they don't start "oh, Italy, where about's, my great grannies cousin friend has a pal in (insert obscure italian location here) do you know it? Why are you here, don't you miss the weather, you haven't lost your accent, what's your national insurance number :wacko: blah blah blah"
I'm actually half Italian, half German, and look forward to see you at the bike show ;)
Are we high jacking this thread? :laugh:

We had really pissed you off THAT much had we?? ^_^

Me? well, you wouldn't have remembered me probably, but I wasn't one of the young guys.

No no, they are all big and ugly enough to take it, and anyway, it isn't ever day you inadvertently meet a fellow Cyclechatter.

Trivial facts:

1. Well on the Italian theme, today I was in Naples for breakfast, had lunch in London (well Gatwick) and am eating dinner in Edinburgh.

2. I once had dinner with Princess Anne in a borrowed suit that was much too big big for me.

(where's the scratch head emoticon?) do I come across as a "young bloke spotter"? :eek:
As long as you were one of the "had a shower this morning" guys, you're an all right train spotter in my books :smile:
