When I see the phrase Big Hitter I only think of Al, maybe because he coined it for himself 😉

When it's written capitalised like that I cannot unsee "Big Hitler" whenever I read it. It's one of those 'speed bump' words for me, my brain always goes "What? Oh, 'hitter,' right."

It's a bit like when certain font choices run an 'r' and an 'n' together so that it looks like an 'm' at first glance, then someone writes something like "and then I'm going to take it outside and burn it."

What's the opposite of a Big Hitter, a Small Tapper? If so then then I think I'm one of them.

I am however possibly partially responsible for Northwind being the Big Hitter he is today. Or at least for him hitting bigly here, rather than somewhere else.

proper enjoyable read.
recently realised that this forum is still great, even when bikes are not involved.

Shatters the myth when realise people are real and not bots. I prefer to remain a shadowy figure like keyser soze.

At Paddington I saw a poster advertising the movie Burn After Reading. Made my commute to Didcot feel a bit high risk.
