I used to get a lot of mucus in me throat until I stopped drinking milk which seems to have alleviated it .see the thread on eating /drinking milk related products

also the usual suspects – made at a stunning cost of buggerall and still the best ending ever

if you’r talking comedy it has to be the producers [ origonal not shite copy ] no-one comes unravelled like gene wilder .

farting in a lift is wrong…….on many levels

GO OUTDOORS have some good stuff in between the shite

st bought the 661 pisspot from chain reaction for £15 , I find it warm and comfortable in cold conditions with a skull cap under it.not sure what it will be like in summer .I don’t think it looks any dafter than most helmets

good luck at the doc’s ton, I’m sure it will be fine

or if you just want to explore you can either take to top road out of egerton , find crowthorn school and take the road up the hill, takes you onto moor bottom road and leads you over to holcombe hill [ where peel tower is ] lots of nice trails to explore.otherwise find entwistle station , go past the strawberry duck pub and take the little trail to the right of the car park , takes you over on bridleways to cadshw, you’ll see the a666 blackburn road in fron of you , take a left and then look for a path into the woods , hang a right and follow the trail till it rejoins the road, ride on the road for about a mile then take the bridleway off to the right brings you out by the back of turton tower.hope that helps

If it was cold it might have been the influx of cold air on your inner chesticles

so its only me that thought this was the chilean version of big brother !!

up rooley moor to cragg quarry , do a loop , exit up the steps towards ding [ half way back round with the wind-farm to your right ]- bear right and go down the coal road , turn left at the road and bear right towards bleakholt animal sanctuary , take to first right through the wood , brings you out on the top road by shuttle woth ,then you could drom into rammy and go back up holcombe hill and onto the trail opposte the shoulder of mutton , fllow them accorss to robins hoods well, down that into irwell vale back up to rawtenstall church ,right at the road , trun left at gincroft road and past the waterboard house, puts you at the bottom of the concrete road. happy to take yopu round it at no great speed , mart

if you like the big voice belter outerers try toni childs ,she made ” union ” and ” house of hope ” in the eighties, otherwise billie hilliday , etta james , natalie merchant [ ex 10,000 maniacs ],

I’ll be there and so will graham i’m sure .I’ve got webbed feet now anyway .

your’e not just paying for the product but the aftersales service as well .hope will repair just about anything even if its out of the gaurantee period. My lights stopped working , I posted them in , they fitted a new part and returned them to me free of charge, no hassle.

yeah it was good to finish on a good downhill singletrack ,top ride

mart

just goes to show it’s always good to get out whatever the sky chucks at you , that was good fun if a little moist .nice to meet you all and have the crack , rkid that was the best going over the wall manouvre with half-pike and back flip that I’ve seen for a while, and yes my brake pads don’t exist anymore either

that should have you bopping

My first night rides were with cat eye lights with ginormous batteries that weighed half a ton , fitted in your bottle holder , and ran out after about an hour and a half , went yellow all of a sudden , then let you down at a critical momment.I find the weirdest thing is all shadows are huge so a tiny drop looks massive till you get used to it .gets proper weird in fog if someone is behind you with a good light and your shadow gets projected on to the fog.

I think there should be a few out , graham and I will there and Lowey said he was up for it too

mart

There you go – discuss your dinner or whether you want a tatto and people go on for many pages, ask a bike related question and no one posts

you can get accross to cragg from lee without going that far , it's cheeky pinch at the momment , there's alittle track off from windy corner, you'll the wotk in progress, there's a digger there , you can dog-leg accross the moor.best wait a bit if you have a tattoo on yer bum tho'

Lowey I'm not sure when he's back , haven't heard from him .I will try and get a ride in after unless it rains heavily .do you leave your bike in the car, just wondered if it's safe

mart

Lowey its supposed to be dry on sunday , fingers crossed [ or webbed ]

mart

sorry to hear that Mark , hope you found some consolation in the jolly sailor !!!! how far wsas the limp home ?

I'll be there , mart

immediately after farting – " better an empty house thatn a bad tennant "

upon hearing the ice cream van music " that's to tell you they've run out of ice cream "

perish the thought ton

can we stop at that nice cafe in hebden bridge where me an lowey had to wait

ps slow ladeeez always welcome teagirl

spoilt for choice or what ! there's cetainly plenty of scope for me and graham to put a ride together , possibly including cragg quarry which a lot of people won't habve seen in its new form , mart

any curry recipe can be healthy. just cut out the ghee [ horrible melted butter ] and use oil.

i think we need to consume our own smoke on this one

we've been singing at too many people's weddings

what's the elephant in the room

all genuine, sadly

I was once at a conference and the lady giving the talk quizzed us on buzz words. when she asked what responsivity meant , I said i wasn't sure but i knew it involved ice cubes and nipples. everyone in the room laughed, except one.

the police have introduced a raft of diversions to avoid convicting on low level offences thus artificially bringing the figures down .most town centre police staions have closed in favour of bigger staions on the edge of towns thus " cutting down " town centre assaults [ or at least people bothering to report them ]
crimes against the person -robbery , sexual assault and assaults have risen consistently over the last 10 years , are you reassured ?

graham and i arenot around as we're in the dales for the weekend.could i be cheeky and ask if you could blag us a t- shirt apeice 1 med 1 large, will give you the money if you have to pay

cheers

mart, i

you can camp in the field bt the dales mountain biking centre , cycle around swaledale / reith and have a swim in the river afterwards- v.cooling

yeah the doctors took the piss something rotten .
