"We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like 'I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive . . .' And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas. And a voice was screaming, 'Holy Jesus! What are these goddamn animals?'"

The Vegas trip is end of May. But to answer that (and in order): a blue spotted sting ray, a bright green frog fish, shoals of long thin cornetfish and a 2m long manta ray. Like Hunter, it blew my mind. But back to the subject of Snow watch....will Peter Snow be dusted off for the next election with a newly enhanced swingometer?

Have you been lickin' toads ?



THEM TOAD SUCKERS


How 'bout them toad suckers, ain't they clods?

Sittin' there suckin' them green toady-frogs.


Suckin' them hop-toads, suckin' them chunkers,

Suckin' them leapy-types, suckin' them plunkers.


Look at them toad suckers, ain't they snappy?

Suckin' them bog-frogs sure makes 'em happy.


Them hugger-mugger toad suckers, way down south,

Stickin' them sucky-toads in they mouth.


How to be a toad sucker? No way to duck it.

Gittchyseff a toad, rear back and suck it!

    • 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….
