Re: What are you listening to now?
Out again this evening to see the hardcore punk band "Rant". Great name guys. Hang on a minute, what's this? Have we come to the wrong gig? It's a fiddle quartet! Only jokin' of course. 'Tis the acclaimed Scottish fiddlers "Rant". Not something I'd normally go for but it's good t...

Re: Has anyone rode these?
I told my mate who's recently discovered bikepacking and did the WRT this year that if he's ever woken up from his bivi in Wales by a farmer he was to say hello and that he was "Mike, from Bromsgrove" : ) Never thought of that! What a cracking idea. I shall implement it at the first avail...

Re: What are you listening to now?
Great fun at Sham 69 gig tonight. Pursey and Parsons must be at least 100 years old now. Managed to ease our way down to the front as usual. Lots of pensioners jumping up and down, crashing zimmer frames into each other and having a marvellous time. Finished at 11pm so we all managed to get back to ...

Re: Website problems?
The joke's on them then. Instead of loads of addresses and phone numbers they'll just find a big pile of smelly socks and reeking base layers.
Bad luck Stu, boring to sort out .

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
Blinkin' Nora, it's a rollercoaster. Last week I bored you with my traumatic experience trying - and dismally failing - to book an Amyl and The Sniffers gig. Well a load more venues appeared this week, including Brum, Newcastle, Glasgow, and one for you Dave - Brizzle. And also Camden Roundhouse - o...

Only recently found out about the 2014 Beeb production of Under Milk Wood, bringing together loads of Welsh talent, "phoning in" from lots of different locations... Michael Sheen, Tom Jones, Charlie Church, Sian Phillips, and more. Nearly bought a DVD but just found it on the Tube.... best...

Concentrated - fair enough. You could Trailshot 440ml of streamwater into it then you'd have a 'normal' drink .

Ralph has some catching-up to do. Perhaps leave him here with his friends for a night to even the score :wink: I've always had Ralph down as a bit of a ladies man.

Re: Yay, it's cheery Friday.
Always good to see light at the end of the tunnel Bob. Bit of good news today (apart from missing out on Amyl!!) so decided to take the rash step of the year's first cocktail. And now the sun's clouded over, sigh. Sod it, having it anyway, cheers! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53727720946_4283...
