You're my missus and I claim my £10. She just called me to tell me she was going to cut the grass.

A bit like Mcginnity owning a seat company!

In the same way its not OK for a London rugby club to uproot and move 100 miles away. If you think they've moved specifically for the entertainment of the people of Coventry then carry on. As for SISU, nobody wants them here. They are here because there was no one else. The only thing I'll say...

They think that by supporting a successful team it makes them more successful. Of course it doesn't really but if they feel better for it so be it. Enough of psychology though. Its always been like that for as long as I can remember. Not a new thing by any stretch of the imagination. As for...

Anyone used to make darts out of the stems from rockets after bonfire night? we used to put darts in the end as flights and a notch half way down and fire them off with a bit of string. They'd go for miles.

We had a bloke at Cally, Mr Cassidy, who taught art. Anyone caught talking had to stand on one of those big art tables that sat about 10 people, bend over and he'd whack your arse with a massive table leg. Loads used to chuck the blackboard rubbers too.

I bought a tin of linseed oil about 30 years ago from Davies's and still have it and use it now. It still has the price label on it.

Looks like they had one of those 'special' european nights tonight.

Missus and daughter spend an hour and half watching soaps so I listen to some music on my headphones. They start talking to me as soon as the headphones go on. Grrrr

Used to love Barnabys. Airfix model and Action man heaven. Salts is still going I think , on the corner of little park street.

The difference is there though that the team GB money comes from Lottery Funding.

Generally, a cyclists household insurance would be able to pick up any claims under the property owners liability section of their home insurance. Its rarely used but would kick in if needed. My neighbours son got knocked over a few years ago running into the road and the car owner wanted to...

I had a run in near kings newnham last year with what turned out to be a pikey I think. He nearly ran me off the road head on so I gave him some verbals. He skidded to a halt and jumped out. I'd stopped and saw he was a pikey so sped off quickly.:)

There must have been a goblin that would leave random stashes of jazz mags in bushes down by the river by us. Always a treat to find some.
