  1. English golfer Peter Oosterhouse gone,sad thing is he suffered from Alzheimers since 2015.
  2. In my early 20's at RAF Brize Norton we used to smuggle a bottle of scotch into the bar,order quadruple sloe gins & top them off with whisky. Not recommended!
  3. Back in the 80's if the USN came into town it was usually a big carrier + support ships & if you had a girl then you'd better hang on to her!
  4. They held a 2 night reunion concert at Shepherds Bush a few years ago,I went to the second one,absolutely magic!
  5. I remember when Edgar Broughton were doing Out Demons Out everyone was chanting Out Skinheads out.
  6. In the Isle of Man in 1997 I did 2 x 12hr days followed by 2 x 12hr nights then supposedly 4 off for 6 months. That shift pattern is quite common on the flight line & popular as when the aircraft are serviceable for the morning flights you can get your head down.Trouble was I was doing scheduled maintenance in the hangar so no such let up. Fucking hated it but it was my first job as a licenced engineer & I didn't want to upset anyone.I should've gone sick with stress.
  7. I saw Focus there a few years ago,also Roger Chapman,Family lead singer.Good venue. Also saw The Hamsters at the Horns,Watford,another good music venue but closed at the moment,supposed to be re-opening soon.
  8. Were Edgar Broughton the support act? I woz there.
  9. I did a bit of 12hr nightshifts when younger,perpetually knackered I'm sure it shortens ones lifespan. 2004 5/5 rotation in Geneva was the last,after that I refused any job which involved nights.
  10. BBC-2 in the UK are having a Neil Diamond night,a reminder of what a great singer/songwriter he really was.
  11. I've been feeling rough all week & sneezing lots as well. So today was my first visit to the gym since last Sunday & man did I feel a whole lot better afterwards! Then I went to see Watford vs Sunderland & felt even better!
  12. @Derek Dangleberries....Oh dear....
  13. The missus went to a funeral yesterday & today went to see some mates in London. So tonight I had a lovely chicken massaman cooked by our mate for the funeral & some brilliant duck from Chinatown. BTW I didn't go to either.

  15. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/apr/19/tributes-paid-to-former-wales-burnley-and-swansea-winger-leighton-james Welsh wizard Leighton James gone at 71,RIP.
  16. I have an absolute mountain of my mum's papers to get rid of & shredding would take an age,so I just bought myself an incinerator. Now all I need is a few days where it doesn't rain😂....
  17. My missus brought some Mango's back from our garden for my mum.
  18. A bit out of focus but am I glad the missus is back!
  19. Not really a joke cos every word is TRUE....
  20. St Georges Day!
