Read a great story about Keith Moon.......obviously there's obviously plenty of those going round, but this was a new one on me. It involved Moon and another headbanger, Viv Stanshall of the Bonzo Dog DooDah Band. I think @boboneleg will like this one! "One day in the 60s, the duo went into a fashion shop in Carnaby Street and asked the assistant if they had any strong trousers. Somewhat nonplussed the assistant replied that yes, all of their trousers were strong - and being so assured was sent off to get a pair or two. On receipt of the trousers, our heroes took a leg each and pulled as hard as possible. They agreed with the assistant that they were indeed strong. However, on continued pulling, one leg came asunder from the other. At which point the duo declared the trousers weren't strong enough and decided to leave the shop. The assistant complained that now she had an unsaleable item -to which Viv replied "of course not - a one-legged chap could walk in, and they'd be just the thing!" Having said this, they marched out of the shop and down the street - where they met up with the one-legged bloke they'd set this stunt up with just a few minutes earlier. Viv and Keith then took great pleasure peering through the window to observe the reaction of the shop assistant as their Long John Silver look-alike buddy calmly entered the shop and made his inevitable request.... They don't make pop stars like that any more....."

I reckon he's done you up like a fucking kipper!

Latest Amazon purchase......delivery tomorrow.

So the trip is off zzzak?

I'll be out......but it'll have to be early! Not sure where I'm going! But it won't be anywhere where I have to walk around, cos my fucking Hernia starts pulling if I'm on my feet too long. Not that I was temperamentally suited for walking before I had the Hernia anyway.

Thanks Bob......I'll give it a try! I tested Waze and it was a lot clearer to look at than Google Maps but I didn't think it's instructions on making turns etc was quite right.

I think they're hideous looking things!

But could they sort out @Marcel's issues?

What you say @Six30?

Amazing version!

All I ever see belching out smoke or on the back of Gruas is Renaults!

I've always used Google Maps but I want something that isn't so confusing on the map view. Ideally like the type of view you get on the Garmins and TomToms etc. Any recommendations?

Won't make a difference to him Bob.......they only ever go anywhere in the van! So all he needs to do is drive the van faster and problem solved!

Somebody else's vid.........Clive can't get his cam to work.

But I heard if there's an issue they deal with it efficiently......unlike eBay?

Just checked and Rhyl's house prices are less than half of Mablethorpe's! I wonder why that is?

Fucking drab place! I just looked at house prices there......WTF? 300K for a tidy gaff!

I'm really impressed with them......been ordering more and more stuff from them recently. I ordered a pair of Summer gloves yesterday for €15..... ......and they arrived this morning! Amazing service! Who else is using them?

And I really wanted a drive through of Mablethorpe!

Tested the mobile mount on the bike today.......all fine. Ended up riding through the town.......it's like a dodgem track there with the useless drivers!

@Nute.......be careful because @Marcel will now start grooming you to join his "gang" of deviants!

I was well aware from a very young age that there was something seriously wrong with her. Thankfully I had the intellect to see that.......and unfortunately I went through my life having to deal with her actions. When I had children I was aware that I'd experienced a real life example of how not to be a parent. So there was no way I was going to repeat it. I couldn't have done so anyway......because I wasn't fucking mental. I always have been, and always will be, the softest touch with children and animals. And they can tell! It's the reason why I can't make eye contact with stray dogs or they'll follow me home! That's how we ended up with 6 at one time! The wife was always the disciplinarian, not me! She says to this day that the eldest one (the one married to Fatty) is the way he is because I babied him and gave in to him too much. It's all my fault apparently.
