I misread "Beer Prices on Lordship Lane" as "Bear Prices on Lordship Lane"

and

"Car Surfing on Jennings Road" as "Cat Surfing on Jennings Road".


Newcastle is the best place to live.

Anything you can buy in London, you can buy in Newcastle.

Except the people, many of whom are not for sale, unlike venal metropolitan types. They have principles, values, good grace and good sense.

Newcastle has a large accessible ocean waterfront, as opposed to a stagnant pond overcrowded with rapacious ducks.

Newcastle has lovely houses, lots of open space and is very close to some of the most beautiful countryside in the world.

Newcastle has short queues, for which all service providers apologise even if you are only waiting 30 secs.

People in Newcastle do not feel the cold, at all, and so need no clothes or heating and do not contribute to global warming. When it falls below zero they eat curry.


Everywhere else from Sheffield north is also superior and should immediately declare independence from Westminster and join Scotland in a new improved and very popular country.

I like to think the good livin' that I had was on the coast of Turkey - where I swam to work every day, they bought be all my meals for the day, my accommodation was ?3 a night including breakfast and I danced the night away OR did midnight parachute jumps of the local mountain to land next to the local bar.


Now I think about it - that was great livin'.

    • hah ha! On the subject of dodgy keys and also police protocol with stolen cars, my first car was a 1969 mini which you could open and start by wiggling a small flat-headed screwdriver. No wonder it was stolen. About a week later the police called to say they'd spotted it on the Dog Kennel Hill estate opposite East Dulwich station. In those days parking was free so at least I didn't receive any tickets, but I surprised the police just left a message with the address and expected me to go and pick it up. I was slightly worried I'd have to tackle the culprits myself when I arrived.
    • Great pub, great deals and great service! Food is second to none Highly recommend 👌
    • This thread is brilliant! I am glad it has a happy ending. The reference to the Punto keys reminds of the days of when you could "jiggle a lock" with a similar car key and I speak from painful memory as a kid I managed to lock the keys in our car whilst on a camping holiday in Spain. My mum and dad didn't speak much Spanish and much hilarity ensued (post event) as they tried to communicate to the driver of a similar make and model of car as to why they had flagged him down and were trying to get him to lend him the key from his ignition! 
    • I highly recommend my painter and decorator Sean. I have used him for over 25years. He is reliable and charges a reasonable price.  you can contact him on 07572 779608
