I find not having a malty dog negates any issues with picking up the slack

What's your mower count these days Jobbo ?? 4?? 5?? :lol:


Only 3 - the tractor mower, a basic Honda Izy which is rarely ever used and a newer more sophisticated Izy.


Quite restrained really. :lol:

I'm not much of a snooker fan but his voice as a commentator was iconic. I loved Big Break too back in the day

Re: Teh Spotted Thread

True dat...

I watched a Blitz documentary and by all accounts, nearly all survived the war. Some were blown 100 yards away, still attached to a chunk of the pavement but most were cleaned up and re-installed. :lol:

Re: Teh Spotted Thread

McLaren 750s

No pics as the owner came back but therefore, got to hear it start up and pull away.

No doubt it’s an amazing machine and every inch of it is function over form,

But by Christ it’s an ugly thing.

Re: Catherine O'Hara

Couldn’t agree more Zed 👍🏻

She was a comic, true and true and cut her teeth in the hardest of environments - the ensemble comedy troupe, performing sketches live in stage. That is not for the faint of heart.

I guess what I mean is I’d have loved to have seen her play more range, more often but ...

Re: Catherine O'Hara

I mentioned in another thread how she got her start with John Candy and others. Her eulogy at his funeral was lovely.

I think she was a far better actor than perhaps her career would suggest.

Rest in Peace

Re: Can I get a TV that's just a TV?

I have a new LG, a recommendation from here, and I have none of those issues.

In fact, I almost never use the TV remote. Sky remote turns it on, controls the volume etc. I watch all streaming via the Sky Q box.

You just appear to have bought the wrong TV

Re: Trump

The Noem one I saw yesterday but it doesn't seem to be published today - Probably just speculation that was removed once proven to be incorrect.

There's a lot of that going round...
