Or is it the CofE who decides if Protestants can get to be called a saint? I suspect that if a certain person had lived to marry the one she had a fling with, she'd have changed religion pdq. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Looks like a Northwich era box) We're both used to piles of fusty old books here, but a couple of weeks ago I bought a bundle of old MRCs for one particular article. They smelt so badly of mould I cut out the article and binned the rest. They left a lingering stink in the kitchen to the point where Miss Riding Hood got all paranoid, cleaned the fridge and the bin, not knowing where the smell had come from. I haven't fessed up as yet.

Just showed your posting to Mrs TinTracks. When she stopped laughing she reckoned we need a ''Horrified'' button We live about an hour north of Whitby so, pre mobility problems, used to get over there a couple of times a month. Damned seagulls have a serious attitude problem there. One of 'em pinched my mates iced cream straight out of his hand then circled and plopped just to say missing him. We go to Grosmont station cafe for coffee and cake now. Not so many of the winged blighters there and it's a bit closer and I can also put the world to rights chinwagging with my mate Dave Edge at Dave's Trains, always a pleasure.

GMKAT7 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Good afternoon folks, The 'great unwashed ' attendees at model railway exhibitions also have twins/doppelganger types who attend real ale festivals too! In fact, there may be a crossover between the two, since some of the beer festival types also attack all passers by with their backpacks. They also resemble the once numerous 'bashers', who seemed to travel the NE/SW route every weekend in search of Peak haulage and smelt as though soap was a deadly chemical 😂 Cheers, Nigel. 3 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
