Started off with an MGBGT due to the fact that there are plenty around, they are pretty straightforward to work on and there is a ready supply of spare parts, but most importantly as a kid a bloke over the road had one and I just loved it. Ran that for about eighteen months and then got a TR6...

After I retired (with a lot more time on my hands) decided to finally get a classic car. Have to say it is a lot of fun and am really enjoying it, there are lots of shows and clubs that offer support (MVPS) and the driving experience is totally different from that of a modern car, which is one...

Not sure what you mean but have been very impressed with the quality so far, as opposed to more expensive exotic beans that proved to be unreliable.

I used to order beans from a company called HasBean, they sourced them from all around the world and they were always pretty good. Then last year suddenly I could not get a decent extraction out of any of the beans I bought from them. Checked my machine, everything I could think of but nothing...

Had noticed that car parks were going away from taking any sort of cash and making it card only. Was over at Touchwood today and they had taken it a step further, had to pay to park the car on line. Is it possible to just get a card and put money on it to use as needed?

Agree, and Campbell does like to breeze over issues related to the Blair administration but well worth a listen.

Have started reading 'Politics on the Edge' by Rory Stewart. Its an insider account of his time in politics, very well written. He also does a podcast with Alister Campbell (The Rest is Politics) that is very good.

I get that when I use my laptop but not my tablet.

Went to restaurant at 'The Telegraph' last night and was very impressed. Although it was a Tuesday so it was no more than about one third full it had a really nice relaxed atmosphere. The food that came out was very well cooked, appropriate portion size and well presented. Had a look round and...

Love reading this thread. Retired a couple of years ago from the NHS, always paid extra contributions into my pension so it worked out pretty good when I did retire. Finacnciallynot a problem and I know I am in a lucky position. I worried that I would miss the interaction with patientsand...

I don't like it, prefer a paper statement, just my preference, but why ask me and then impose it regardless?

A few months ago my bank contacted me and asked if I wanted to go 'paperless' and receive my statements on line. After much consideration I informed them that the system we have been using for the last forty years was pretty good and I would like them to continue sending me a monthly statement...

Was working there when it happened, made me cringe at the time. Tried to subversively re name it the 'Major Tom' ward.

They were great, used to open a tin after I got back from school, thought I was imagining it!!!

Asda used to do a duck and cherry pate, loved it.

Sausage rolls in a tin, or have I imagined that?

Its usually a popular show with plenty of interesting cars. Always worth a visit.

Also the lazy bastards who never put there bin outside of their own house but put it front of someone else's, then leave it there for days after it has been emptied. Put your bin outside of your fucking house, not mine!!

It was fantastic, some of the best food I have ever eaten. Very impressed and will certainly go again. Good portion sizes too.

Off to the Gourmet Food Kitchen at Fargo Village tonight. Heard so many good things about it, looking forward to it.
