They have funny ways down south in that there London. Popped into the public loos at the Lightroom yesterday. No M or F signs so I boldly stepped in, chose my cubicle (no urinals) and closed the door.

Emerging I spotted four women washing there hands with their backs to me. Feeling confident I walked over, stood beside one lady who looked at me then looked at her friend with a sort of "what's he doing in here" look on her face. Fortunately her friend confirmed it was OK.

Then I spotted my wife, well heard actually as she announced "It's OK, he's just in touch with his feminine side" Thanks dear!!!!

Lots of joking and laughing followed.

.........and get in by handing over a jam jar? I don't remember that, but I have heard people talk of it and it was definitely a thing. Talk about history repeating itself as we are about to start getting money back for jars and cans again. :laugh:

Never heard of that one Mo.

I do remember Saturday Matinee, Pathe News and 2 films with an Intermission though.

It was supposed to have been a great gig. I can't say I'm a huge fan of the Boss, but I respect his artistic integrity and definitely his energy! After my gig last night I was knackered this morning, but then I don't have roadies to do the less glamorous jobs for me.

We saw him in Edinburgh at end of May. The best gig I've ever seen, not just Bruce, I mean in my life. Absolutely astonishing.

You were looking for someone, saw the sign saying WC, you entered, knocked on the door number one, asking if they were Nellie Dunn. Only to be told they'd only started!

Good morning all.
A question.......
As I listen to the radio presenter telling me about blue skies and sunshine......why is it totally overcast here??

I had planned a chill day though.
Sport is a bummer though.
Just 1 player left in at Wimbledon.
Cricket team failing.
No footy.
I may have to watch the cycling ☺
