    Getting a free bet on the horses from Bob's lot and putting it all on a horse called Indy Five purely because for a while many years ago I went out with a rather lovely girl called Indy.
    And the thing only led all the way round to finish ten lengths clear (the horse, not the girl). Thank you, bobs lot 
    I had the favourite in that race - came nowhere. Almost went with that one as think was boosted to 7/2 

    But I have balance of 40 odd quid from their football free bets last 2 weeks and have 6 of Peanuts grand national tips already booked in from free bet winnings. 
  • Best of luck to you - my approach sounds very similar. I don't know how Peanuts sleeps, carrying as he is the weight of all our hopes and dreams...
  • Nice hot mug of soup after a cold day at the football. 
  • Cockle popcorn.

    You might need practice getting that right. Anyway, not far from me is an excellent restaurant called Shellfish Cow. Food theme is in the name. Last week a nibble on the blackboard was popple cockporn, which turned out to be individual cockles deep fried in batter with a sliver of cornichon in each one. Served with aioli. Heavenly!
    And the main courses were even better. 



  • My son's new turntable and love of the 70s rock music genre.

    The loft is becoming less cluttered as my old record collection finds a new lease of life.  Indeed, even my old record cabinet has gone. 

    Here's hoping he also takes up an interest in his old uni papers, ancient toys and football programs.  


  • Reports that Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is on her way home.
    Only just really 'delved' into this thread, that would be an absolute brilliant bit of news.

  • After months of being on hold, due to the electronic components shortage (furloughed workers more like), I actually collect my new car Tuesday, which has turned into the upgraded version for the same money.

  • C class coupe,oldest swinger in town.

    I tend to hang up after a few minutes, or try and use the "chat" function.
  • Elon Musk existing. What a guy. 

    Just offered to buy Twitter for 40-odd billion. Says if they say no, he'll sell all of his shares.
  • Testing negative on our PCR test (fit to fly) so we can now have our first holiday in well over 21/2 years.

    Obviously showing my age by going all pre decimal, fractions was all the rage when I was dragged up in the gutter.

    Watching my son's band at a festival and doing some train spotting at the same time:



    Though in all honestly, the turn out wasn't everything they'd hoped for:



  • Our daughter’s at her friends all day and managed to persuade my wife to join me in a roof down drive out in my classic to Otford. Stopped, had tea and watched a spitfire fly past a couple of times then had a leisurely drive home in the sun. Did a bit of gardening when I got home and am just about to crack open a beer. 
  • When you've sat through the 15 minute intro to On The Case With Paula Zahn, and it ain't one you've seen before.


  • The sun is out again, so I don't need to replace my car's bald tyres for another 5 months.
  • Wondering idly what to have for breakfast on this sunny Sunday morning then finding a cream and jam doughnut that I'd forgotten about in the fridge, still in date.
