My eyes are getting all Dewey at the thought Lez. No good if your date's spineless though?

It helps to have a substantial frontispiece
Ho hum. So far this morning both ticket machines at Shrewsbury have been out of order, meaning I had to queue for the ticket window to get my pre-booked ticket from the man who clearly had no more wish to be at the station at quarter past six than I had. Then the train only had two coaches instead of four, so there are lots of very grumpy people standing.Anyone want to run a sweepstake on what happens at Wolverhampton? Train not turning up? Turning up but seat reservations not working (most likely option)? Turning up late? Getting stuck at Sandwell & Dudley due to malevolent spirits in the overhead cables? Signalling error leading to train getting on to wrong track and travelling to Paignton instead of London?
a day in the life of the executive hobo!
I'm predicting murder on the Wolverhampton Express! :)
You'll have fun in Paignton, Gordon ... my Aunty lives there ;o>She can lend you a Bucket and Spade for the day and my Cousin can take you Surfing!
can he safely leave his bindle on the beach?
My Cousin's BIG hairy woofer can sit by and guard it for him ;o>He's some kind of a cross between a Shetland Pony and a Yeti disguised as a Dog!
Bindle on the Beach - Wasn't that where Dad's Army was set?

Those 'Big Hairy Woofers' can swallow you whole.
I went to Dublin Zoo last night. They have a light sculpture exhibition on for the winter. Got some amazing photos...http://s1281.photobucket.com/user/Gin...
Oh, and the girl in the wooly hat is my friend who bought me the ticket as an early christmas present.
WoW?!! - what wonderful pictures! ... thanks for sharing, Gingerlily ;o>
Glad you liked them :) Hope that cheered you up a bit.
To quote Tesco ... "Every little helps" ;o>

"They developed their own metrics: the Stool Hardness and Transit (Shat) score and the Found and Retrieved Time (Fart) score.The Fart score – how many days it took the Lego to pass through the bowels – was between 1.1 days and three days, with an average of 1.7 days.
Using the Shat score, the researchers also found the consistency of their stools did not change. They compared Shat and Fart scores to see if looser stools caused quicker retrieval but found no correlation"

Well. No idea what Transport for Wales is trying to do to my world view this morning. Free coffee at Shrewsbury station. Train departed on time with the expected number of coaches. Whatever next?

Are you nearly there yet, Gordon? ;o>
He's probably stuck in a tunnel somewhere. With no wifi or phone reception.

Thanks Suzy.
In the end, it was anything but. But that wasn't the train companies' fault on this occasion.

From a ‘TalkClassical’ poster in California:-------------------------------------------------------
‘Burger King is debuting a McDonald's-themed deal. If customers go within 600 feet of a McDonald's location, they can order a Whopper for one cent via the revamped Burger King app.
"If a guest is inside one of these geofenced areas and has the new BK App on their device, the app will unlock the Whopper sandwich for a penny promotion," Burger King said in a press release. "Once the 1¢ Whopper sandwich order is placed, the user will be 'detoured' away from McDonald's, as the app navigates them to the nearest Burger King restaurant for pick up."

HA HA!!! - I can resist your tortuous temptation (well? - just about!) as it isn't all about the Milk Chocolate but more the Brazil Nut with me - and so I actually prefer the ones that still have a generous enough amount of Chocolate on them but are the more rounded Nut shaped ones rather than the squarer Chocolate Box shaped ones ;o>
Mind you? - I would never say no to any kind of Milk Chocolate Brazil on offer! ;o>

Awww, no?!! ;o< ... Gordon, I think we need a whipround on here and see if we can manage to afford to buy you a small private Jet Plane for Christmas?!! ;o>

I have visions of getting myself a Smart Phone and then being chased by a giant Burger up the High Street just because I happened to walk past a Burger Bar! ;o>
And God help us all if Ann Summers suddenly starts offering similar deals?!! ;oO
Definitely doesn't have visual appeal, TB! ;oO
What were you trying to post, Lez? I can only see a log-in screen.
It’s a picture (cartoon) on Talk Classical. The link works fine for me, how strange.
That might be because you are a member of those Forums and you need to be a member to see them as well as to post on them?
