Great minds think alike Kev ours will be similar. It will be a bit of a mixture tea now as we have just inherited the two Silsden grandchildren and they don't yet do a great range of the finer culinary treats. :extrawink: It will now involve pork sausages and alphabet potato croquettes. Finlay is g...

Well done Kev, with my licence back, I will be able to do a bit of roaming to find some 12 week appointments maybe. :smile: I'm still at the end of October for my next in Barlick as the September sessions are full. On the brew front, I assume you had to make it yourself. :extrawink: :biggrin2: I di...

Excellent choice, spiked with fresh rosemary, sliced garlic and drizzled with some olive oil before it goes in the oven?

Do you get a bonus for having a bigger arm?

An extra biscuit with a brew

It's only practical at very low 'parking' speeds

They park here (Park St), Moseley St and over the road on Harrison St. I'm sure most of them would be quicker just walking from home...

Left foot always discouraged in an automatic Kev due to the risk of see sawing. Still getting used to full relaxation on that side.

It is but it's surprising the control it gives

How are you with left foot braking Ian? Give it enough on the go pedal to get it moving and control the speed with the whoa pedal...

Just had a read through this thread. Photoshop is great for colouring images, I quite enjoy it. I believe I've posted these before on another thread, it's my parents' wedding day in 1959.

ITV 4 are showing the race live for most of each day plus catch up on demand and the highlights programme!

Apart from the ad breaks (someone has to pay for it) it's really good coverage.

I learn something new every day, just seen a vertical lathe on the TV, it's for making snooker cues and being vertical it takes the 'wobble' out of the cue while it's being turned. A simple idea that works

On to Skipton this afternoon to pick up my new specs.

I'm in with James Bontoft on Wednesday for my eyeball MOT.

Hang in there Kev, you will get there, steady away. Don't go falling over, you are too big a lump to scrape up.

Physio did suggest I use walking poles if I plan on walking any distance, I will have to dust them off as I've not used them in a while.

Thanks Cathy.

After 6 weeks hopping around on crutches I now have a 'weight-bearing' knee. I need to 'not do anything silly' and do the exercises to get full mobility back. I can't believe how reliant I'd become on the crutches, hopefully I won't fall over anywhere

Mostly avoiding any type of sport if possible. I find the endless commentary and analysis boring.

Making sure I get some sleep in before Silverstone which is live today at 13:00.

One man's meat....

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure

My grandad was telling a story from his days in the navy during the war, they detected a submarine so dropped a depth charge. There was a huge explosion and lots of dead sheep floated to the surface.


They reckoned it was a ewe boat...

The Ariel Britain programmes on Smithsonian are quite interesting too, there's a series of Ariel America as well.

Is it in an old Vauxhall in an Opel dealership in Berchtesgaden, Germany?

It's a 4 cylinder petrol engine, is it an old Austin?

This made me laugh out loud and yes, I have one

I struggle to see why people need to drive their kids to school in Barlick, everywhere is within easy walking distance...

I'd guess at a dark colour so they could easily see if there was any milk left in them...
