Lol, I just googled that . A long time ago that pub was a club and we managed to get in there after being refused everywhere else. The bogs were upstairs and when I went up with my mate he carried on up a further flight of stairs . We found the store room up the top and proceeded to help ourselves to as many bottles of gin/vodka/brandy as we could stuff down our trousers. We then made a sharp exit and walked down to the centre and sat on the benches where we had our own party

I'm going down mum-in-laws for a feast, my wife is busy doing a leg of lamb right now. We will have to celebrate the New Year twice as it happens an hour earlier in Italy and we will also have to watch Italian TV all night which is feckin awful

Oh come on !! I haven't got time today to go trolling through previous posts

Where are you off too ?

Jesus, we've got thunder and lightning now

I thought you were bound to be aware of Badfinger (the Iveys) when you were growing up, did you ever see them in a gig ?

If you're happy to live with the skinny (flexible) forks, 6v electrics and shit drum brakes then go ahead . But even considering all that it was still better than a C15

I used to ride my brother-in-laws C15, it was shite compared to my XL185

I just re-watched the BBC documentary about Badfinger (the band) , very sad but they made great music while they were around.

Was Billy bob out on your run today .................................

Nice one Fred It was moist on our ride today , most of the first five lanes were a pure slipfest and the rest were like riding in streams . I've only ever ridden down those steps , I bet they claimed a few when you went up them

Well whoever it was they have switched it, could be a simple mistake .

I tried to invoke a 24hr ban but it seems that my powers are not as strong as He-man ............

I like those lanes around there but not London Road , even if you've got a group of four of you working together it still takes ages to get through it.

Bonkers isn't it Clive, £10 a month on giff gaff for me .

Fuckmine, can you imagine the repayments on that

We're out tomorrow for Tony's xmas ride. Not sure what direction we're going , I think it may depend on the weather. If we're going up the Fosseway then I'll just go on the Donkey but if we're heading to rut central (Wiltshire ) I'll probably go on the Yamaha.

@Sir Fallsalot did you do your TRF ride ?

I totally agree with that and yet I reckon they will be worse off as regards to the state pension as some of them won't be eligible until their seventies the way it's going on I won't get a full state pension either as I finished full time work when I was 51 . I'm not going to make voluntary contributions to top it up as it won't make a huge difference,
