... you start wearing beige jackets and pastel coloured jumpers and vinyl shoes

Taupe's a nice colour too.

Oooo, did I say that out loud?

Had to look taupe up... isn't it beige by another name?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Yeah, it's in the standard oldie colour range.

When we went away at the weekend we took a flask of tea with us - we'll be parking in lay-bys, to drink it, next to a big pile of gravel before too long...

There was a layby complete with gravel that was infamous for flaskers near where we grew up. It also came with a free lack of view of Morecambe Bay.
It was quite popular.

Has anyone mentioned that policemen are looking younger?

I can think of a couple that aren't.

"Go down to where the station used to be, turn right until you get to where the school was demolished, then......"

Reminds me (a bit) of the apocryphal tale about getting directions in Ireland... "If I were you, I wouldn't start from here..."
