    See, I like Rag’n Boneman. In fact the honest truth was I heard a song and was amazed to find it was him singing it and now consider myself down the kids. ;)
    Saw rag n bone man at blackheath - who was good - a few months ago and realised that I’d seen grace jones - the headline act!!! more times than any other act there- not coz I like her - in fact she bores me to death - just coz how old I am. How she keeps getting the headline gig at these things I don’t know 
    Maybe you’re just a slave to the rhythm!

    Grace Jones. Absolute horrible person but a  stunner. It surprises me that she is still singing.

    really?
  • When you know an adult who you are not related to and think to yourself, I remember them as a kid. That is something you get as regular following a football team because fans are there for life.  And I remember a few of our adult fans (though young adults) when theyy were kids.

    I'm talking primary school and contemporaries of my daughters.
  • Received an email from Amazon asking me to review the book 'The Memory Tree' which is quite ironic as I cannot even recall ordering it.  

    I have checked my Kindle and it is there.  I am currently blaming the hair trigger of single click ordering ... just hope I'm not kidding myself :neutral:
    That sounds an interesting book, what's it about?

    And another thing. That sounds an interesting book, what's it about?

    I don’t feel too bad, having carried 1.5 tonne of gravel and a tonne of log cabin through the house in the last couple of days.
  • Failing your driving test isn't a sign of old age @Jessie , it's a sign of youth. Old age is when you already have a licence but people question your ability to drive. I was surprised that you mentioned the driving school's car, here you take your test in the same car you learned in. In a way your system sounds better. A driver should be competent in any car, not just one. Anyway, here's wishing you better luck next time.

  • I couldn't play the video, but did see the opening frame. I guess we could never have that sort of test here , lack of space. It was a major upheaval ensuring all our test centres could handle a two part motorbike test. I just couldn't see it happening for cars. Anyway, you know you're getting old when you've already got a driving licence, but never had to take a theory test.

    And you realise that those ‘big’ family cars you drive around are small by today’s standards...and as for those smaller family cars of yesteryear, they make today’s mini/city cars look big

    Very true. I took this at Brands Hatch last weekend and my mate's Triumph 2500 was in the background. This was a fairly big car in its day but look how small it looks against the Skoda


  • When your reading twitter and wondering why so many spanner’s have an opinion on the NHS!
    ie: NHs had to go, served his time well but had run out of ideas.
