Made me laugh 🤣 Happy New non-Insertion Year! -
I note that no-one's putting their hands up 🤮 to having things inserted up the front end. Been there a couple of times and would have taken the rearwards option at the drop of a hat or latex glove. Most unpleasant despite the numbing cream the nurse gently applied first 😨. Made me feel sick. So come on - who's enjoyed that one?
-
Oh for goodness sake - there's just no pleasing some people Just book yourself onto a wrapper opening course and live crumb free
-
You haven't had the course. You're supposed to pull the seam open, not rip off a corner. Du-uh! 🤣
-
So it's an anti-litter move. If it works that's a good thing despite it being EU driven 👍 Thanks those who have enlightened me
-
Why do they stay attached? 1) So that the recyclers only have one piece of plastic to deal with? I don't believe that or 2) So that we can crush the bottle, tighten the cap and the bottle stays crushed Hello-o - what does that hydraulic press thing in the back of the dustcart do?!

That's why she's 'ex'

Leave my ass out of it; it's starting to feel vulnerable

Yeah Happy Birthday Doug Jon (today: tomorrow I'll be someone else 🤭)
-
No they haven't

Nice try @spudulike - thanks but it's not those. I've run the saw up and all seems well so I'll keep the pin safe and wait for the bang. Cheers

I was hoping to avoid bitterness and recrimination. Move on - it's over. 242 and I are very happy. I'm sorry I mean - 242's fine 'n' all but Seven of Nine would have been my first choice 😋
-
Oh God - didn't you get my text?
-
Dunno without a pic @Stubby! You forgot the pic. Were you my wife once?!
-
@spudulike Forgot to attach the pic when I was my wife 🤣 And yes, it was flapjack!

This year's masterpiece that is no more. The Wild Man of the Woods being crowded by houses. Across the road is a Redrow development on a small portion of the land owned by a wealthy Kazakh businessman who obviously has the ambition of building on all his acres here. The racing horse stud that used to occupy the land has been relocated to France so acres of potentially productive land are lying unused and unmanaged in the hope or expectation of planning permission on the lot one day. Last year's bonfire archer (see above) was aiming straight at the development!

Abso-bloody-lutely. I'm mystified too. I'm on my third Kingcab Navara and don't know how I'd manage with anything else. A single cab would have more buck space but no secure tool/clothing/sandwich locker, a double cab would have too little buck space. The Kingcab is perfect; carries the occasional second passenger too for a short trip
-
What an amazing pic 👍
-
To be equally serious a couple of folk have suggested I carry one ready for the next hornet sting!
-
Had a similar experience with hornets in the garden; reacted badly to my first sting and I'm told by several people the next one will be worse The solution? Keep away from the nest. So I have

Ooh you're a bad man!

If you want bonfires come to East Sussex, home of the bonfire societies First fire is in September; just about every society visits every other society's fire through the season into November Lewes is of course the biggest; that's actually on Nov 5th - Tuesday Ours here in East Hoathly attracts several hundred people who watch the fire in the recreation ground and then process to a nearby field for fireworks A local woodworker builds the effigies for the fire; this was last year's fantastic effort

Agreed. It did occur to me that someone's said it with a straight face and the comment's been taken at - well, face value!

A friend has been told by a supplier of woodturning blanks and boards that he's struggling to obtain sycamore due to a ban on the felling of it in the North. Have I missed something? I've tried the great god Google and only get hits on the Gap Syc on Hadrian's Wall. Cheers, Jon
