    TV : made me want a VW T2.

    Internet: Bought a VW T2 on eBay , then found all these nice/interesting/grumpy/piratical/obsessed people on TLB who own one.

    See, it's this kind of quality that is sadly missing from our TV screens nowadays....

    I've also learned that if I happen to meet Bill & Ben in a particularly feisty mood whilst walking in the grounds of Chequers, I can neutralise them with a few flashes of a handily placed sword, but that I should never turn my back on a giant Dougal :D
     
  11. Blue Planet II starts this weekend I think. Can’t wait.

  13. Charlie told me to always tell my mummy before I go off somewhere.

    To be honest she’s getting a bit sick of it now. I’m 45 and left home twenty years ago. She says she doesn’t actually need to know if I’m popping out for a paper.

    We had this at primary school. The screaming in the night scene spooked a few of us.

    A sage lesson for us all.

    @Purple you've forgotten avoiding flooded quarries and even now I cross at least 200 yards from any Ice cream vans.


    Not all advice is good, the missus was appalled when I used her spare jumper as a form of turban on a really sunny day a few years back. Bear Grills was very clear....to avoid over heating, take a spare article of clothing and form it in to a loose head piece and put it on your head. On really sunny days, slash on it first.
