Ach Sean, you know The Road was rubbish!

I confess I'd never heard of the expression until this thread. You youngsters!

Steady on chaps. Some of us are more cynical than others. Steve could have posted in good faith, in which case, thank you for your good intentions.

Please let us know when the bat watch is on. We could have a forum posse and of course go for drinks afterwards.

No Mick Mac. All one needs is a roaring fire, a wolfhound at one's feet, a bowl of crisp cox's orange pippins, a bottle of burgundy and a Walter Scott. That's my fantasy anyhow.

There have been sparrow hawks in Peckham - could it have been that?

You're having a swing party? Are you growing pampas grass in your front garden?

Don't throw stones Brendan, I've seen your Burton keks.

The Beiderbecke Affair. Gentle comedy of yesteryear. Watched the first episode last night and forgotten how delicious it was.

For those of you still havering, here's The Telegraph's reasons to watch. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/5062437/Why-The-Wire-is-unmissable-television.html (sorry URL link not working, you'll have to cut & paste)

Lily the Pink - The Scaffold

Under the Moon of Love - Showaddywaddy

The Combine Harvester - The Wurzels

Don't waste your money Ted, I think Act of Settlement will come first.

There seem to be an awful lot of clerical references this year. Maybe disestablishment is round the corner?

Lazy Days - Moody Blues

Sorry charlies, I think cavaliers are so much more dashing.

Well I sure ain't going for claret and blue!

I'm backing the beautiful grey in the pretty pink silks.

How charming to see that handwritten topping and tailing still goes on.

Forget giving up the cars. Looks like we'll have to go vegetarian: While the Irish Republic and Denmark forge ahead with plans to introduce a "flatulence tax" on cattle ? much to the disgust of farmers in both countries ? UK farmers are bracing themselves for a similar move. According to the United Nation's Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO), livestock is responsible for 18 per cent of the greenhouse gas emissions that are thought to contribute to climate change. A cow emits as much as four tons of methane each year through burps and farts compared to 2.7 tons of carbon dioxide emitted by the average car. The mooted tax of ?75 per cow would decimate the UK beef and dairy industry, which is already under strain from cheap milk and meat imports. Farmers, however, are being encouraged to experiment with alternative diets to improve the digestive systems of their animals and stave off bovine flatulence ? and the accompanying tax.* *The Telegraph

Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix

Oh er, a real grizer.

Is that the follow up to Ukranian Tractors?
