  1. I met him once, he was running a bike up Shelsley Walsh hillclimb. No airs or graces, no big I am just happy to enjoy running his 'bike up the hill and chatting to people. He must have been in his mid sixties by then and he didn't hold back from giving his bike the Full Beans and putting in a pretty good time. RIP John.
  2. I wonder who has the best ride and handling!
  3. Technically speaking it was yesterday........ But I had someone in a Nissan of some sort following me with his main beam blazing away. Luckily after a couple of miles I managed to get a few cars between us, but it is still annoying!
  4. The trouble is that the producers of both these programmes is that they are thinking of future sales to TV networks, it could be a couple of years before they appear on mainstream TV and of course the currently new cars won't be quite so new. Then you have to factor in the fact that not all cars are sold in all markets so for many parts of the world the road test will be irrelevant!
  5. Sure you're not getting mixed up with instant coffee?
  6. It's when you're ooop North, travelling north with a northern passenger who instead of saying "Can you take a left?" he says "Kanye west?"
  7. Anyone seen this one yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq1r_M5a6uI
  8. Well that's a terrible shame for Hillary. She's not going to sit at the desk that Monica sat under!

  10. You get used to it. I don't wear my contacts all the time but I wouldn't be with out them. I actually tried them because at the time I was doing some clay shooting and I thought it would improve my aim. Ironically I have not done a lot of shooting since! As far as getting them in, you have the lens between your eyeball and your finger so you don't "put your finger in your eyes" like wise when taking them out, if you are careful your fingers won't come into contact with your eyes. Have a chat with your optician. They will give you an assessment to make sure you are okay to use them, they will perform an eye test and measure your eyeballs for fitment. I've never had any problems with my contacts.
  11. So what are you doing there? Sheep sh@&&ing? [emoji16] [emoji16] [emoji16] Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  12. My dear old Mum says the new Top Gear is terrible. So there you have it.
  13. Surely that is replacing a small cat problem with a big cat problem! I have heard that strategically spreading lion poo around your garden will deter cats.
  14. I swear the doc used the fat end of a baseball bat to check mine........ Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  15. And smelling salts which were illegal in UK boxing at the time. Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  16. Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure....... Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  17. Loved the Ariel Nomad. I want one! It was beautifully filmed, Matt was only okay though. Clarkson would really have bought it to life. Didn't enjoy anything else in the show.
  18. I'd have liked to have seen the ship named after Ranulph Fiennes tbh, David Attenborough has done some seriously good programmes in some of the most inhospitable parts of the world but let's face it, he had an easy ride out there whilst Ran walked it single handed without any support. What a guy! Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  19. Think I might rename the car Cary McCarface! Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk

    BEARDS!

    I've grown one and shaved one this year. I usually shave once a week but I broke my wrist mid January so let the beard grow for a couple of months. Whipped it off when I looked in the mirror, didn't recognise myself but saw my dear pop staring back at me! Removing it was quick and easy, one pass with a cutthroat razor just like a normal shave!
