That's unfortunate Mike. I don't like flying either and I guess there are plenty of people who don't. When boarding is a bit late to back out, but when it happens what can we do. I don't suppose you get any sort of refund for that, does insurance cover it as it was beyond your control?

Well now in Cornwall and I see our luck is holding. Sitting in the mobile home wondering if the rain will wash us away before the wind blows us over the cliff. That's unfortunate Mike. I don't like flying either and I guess there are plenty of people who don't. When boarding is a bit late to back...

Last Goth weekend we went too was horrible, full of drunken yobs taking the p.. er.. Mickey out of the people there for the event. Must admit though, I have an itch to costume up and see the sea. Next spring maybe, if I'm not working... Back to reality, Hobgoblin Gold is going down well:D

there are so many good small breweries here now, making not only lager (in fact rarely lager) but great IPA's, blondes, boks and stouts. Ah, BOK. Brings back fond memories of Frankfurt where I discovered the dark BOK beer.

About 38 years. :twisted: I've had her from new, she's been a winter bike, a tourer, a project, but most of all just always there. I thought it was time for a refresh and take her back to her original self. She's a 1979 Yamaha RD400f.:D

We currently have our son's bike stored in the back garden. It was going into a shed, but it has a leaky front fork (or something) so it is outside behind the shed until he has the time, inclination and, most importantly, money to fix it. Since he is currently living over 100km away from us, and his...

Just back from our trip. We got the crackers at the garden centre in Ambleside. That place is huge. Thanks for the suggestion! The weather was amazing and the drive over the Pennines each way was just stunning. It did the soul good to see that scenery. The funeral went well, and as is so often the...

Good to hear your back safe and sound. Not been to the garden center this year yet, but it's worth a trip just to see their Xmas set up. How far up the coast did you manage? Bamburgh, Craster, Druridge Bay, are gems. Just too rub it in with the envy you can add the Yorkshire Dales, the North Yorks m...

Stop it you two! It isn't often I wish I was back in the UK, but this last trip made me homesick and you two are not helping :wink:. Time to start plotting a longer trip for next spring methinks. Hopefully His Nibs will agree.

The days of two fridges for us were back in the Middle East. A second fridge now would generate the need to buy excess cheap, quality ale from Lidl or Aldi and suffer the effects of said purchases....

It works for us (as it did when I had several lodgers in the house - and before SWMBO came along):D...

I tried retirement once, well I thought I would take Fridays off for starters but then herself says Oh great, there’s lots of jobs that need doing so now you will have the time! It lasted one day. My conundrum is that by working I can afford the occasional treat but hardly ever find the time to enjo...

:shock: Interest rates at 5% That was a long time ago, just about the time I started to save for retirement... .......got a lot put on one side and it earned less in interest than a missed VISA bill!:( I ask you £25 for a missed payment? Still, I got it back when I pointed out that I alw...

Finally got rid of #1 son today. For a while at least until he comes back to fix the front fork on his motorbike.:roll: I did get an over engineered, over priced cupboard for the washing machine tumble dryer and freezer made by him before he left. I would have been quite happy with a stacking it. H...

I had an accident at work some 11 years ago... ...my baccy and papers were in my locker back at the office... ....some 5 months later when I returned to work I hadn't had a cig since the crash... ...and still haven't to this day. Giving up smoking is a hard thing to do and the temptation...

For anyone like me that frets about how much kit to carry and what it weighs, I have just seen the solution on a BBC4 documentary about Albert Watson. He drives around Skye scouting shots whilst in a van behind are three (yes three!) assistants with all his kit. As he strides off they porter everyth...
