You'd just have to front something like that out. Walking down the high street with your dangleros hanging through the neck hole, saying, 'hello, lovely evening isn't it,' and when challenged by the wife or mother, just tell her it's the latest trend and that all the fashionistas of Covent Garden are wearing leg pullovers

I used to commute from Leeds to Kings Cross and got the 6:40 on a Monday morning. Every week the same guy got on at Doncaster, sat next to me, put his suit jacket over himself (blanket style) and went to sleep.


We never said a peep to each other for over a year!

But you shaved his eyebrows & drew a mustache on with a felt-tip, right?


( then took a photo on your i-phone )

My dad used to roll a special little single skinner for his journey to work by tube,


he spotted a guy smoking a pipe so sat next to him thinking it would hide the smell of


his rollie substance. As the journey went on he felt everyone looking, thought about putting it out,


avoided staring directly at anyone, but hoped in his paranoia the guy with the pipe would get the blame.


It wasnt till he was getting off that he realised he was sitting next to Tony Benn.

    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead 
    • Tried months ago, to get folk together to do something, to say thank you. Been a member of the forum for years and if you had not stepped up, would not be an active  forum. Well administered as well. So from me to you, thanks for keeping it going..  Happy Christmas and blessings and good fortune in 2026 which I am told is The Year of The Horse….
