    A man walks into the Doctor’s with a carrot sticking out of his nose and some celery sticking out of his ear.
    The doctor says “i know what’s wrong with you: you’re not eating properly!”

    I always make dumlpings for our stews, but on the odd occasion that we’re out of/cant source suet, I find Soda bread is an excellent substitution.
    CFH I hope there’s at least a glass of claret in the stew too.

    A friend of mine who is a celebrated two pint screamer was left in charge of the laptop with a massive pre programmed soundtrack for his Sister in law’s big day, as his wife was part of the bridal party he got well and truly pished while the pics were taken. All is going ok till some one request Moondance by Van Morrison, My bud scrolls through, finds said song but deletes the rest of the evenings playlist. He wanders off not caring one iota while the laptop only plays songs beginning with “m” for the remainder of the evening!

    Came home in 91 from a year in Stuttgart making silly money on a site and bought a Marin Eldridge Grade for 540 quid cash, also bought hi-tec Mtb Boots, Mt. Zefal pump and Bell Image Helmet.
    Grey Zolatone paint with flouro orangey/pink bars and forks.
    Had two Marins, a Jamis and a kona since.

    As above, mine is a Sunbeam and I often pop in a whole chicken sat upon a couple of onions, 6 hours later your bird’s all moist and ready for salty gravy all over its breasts.

    I saved up and bought on of those 79.95 Quid 10 speeds advertised on the back page of the news papers. It was utter gash, all bolts vibrates loose, cranks were never tight and it was made of ultra rust cheese alloy ! Total waste of money and the last bike I bought for 5 years until i discovered MTBs.

    Also try Drimsynie Estates in Lochgoilhead, my old stomping ground and packed with A frame chalets and pubs. reasonable local trails too including a nice loop round the loch and over to Ardgarten. weather should be dreadful until about mid may but what can you do?

    they both have their merits, and go remarkably well together with a cheddar sauce every Xmas at Tubing Towers. However if forced to pick a favourite i would plump for broccoli as it is a great film Director as well as a delicious eaty thing.

    I have sold craploads of Icebreaker in my last job and would say we got maybe 1 in 150 back with a fault,be it a bit of loose stitching or a wee hole. My Tech top has a hole in the sleeve which i believe was caused by my watch ,the top is 4 yrs old and the hole hasn’t grown. you sound like you got a dud, take it back they should replace/repair it (Icebreaker will inspect it not Tiso’s)

    Went in 97 and loved it! Pils was 56p a half litre, search out Bohemia Bagels for a simple cheap brekkie, Dva Cochek (2 Cats) is a nice wee trad eaterie very close to the City Square. watch out for pickpockets,I was grabbed by the Jacob’s by a 15 yr old gypsy girl and she managed to get her other hand into about 3 pockets before I could free my self from her (TTIWWP i know) little bugger was quick!!
    We still write….
    Enjoy it

    I have been in this position at a friend of a friend’s stag do; I mulled over not going because of the impact on my tiny income. I went, didn’t drink that much, ignored the epically skanky strippers and probably looked like a miserable killjoy to every one else involved. Don’t be that guy! You have the choice to decline gratefully with any amount of reasons. Do so and everyone enjoys the night.

    Had it not been thrown out a few years ago along with various other cherished tees mine would have been an ’86 Spear of Destiny tour tee. The only one that made out of the carnage and still exists is a Red Sky Coven 1898 vest.

    Haven’t got an album of theirs since Raw Melody Men, to my shame. but I think i’d better grab F*ck Texas so as to familiarise myself with 12 years of gig faves! i’ll be in there shirt off, fat bald and proud! Might even bung in my nosering for old times sake! The only relic I have left is a Red Sky Vest from the 89 germany tour, I reckon Justin will shit when he sees it!!

    haven’t seen them since a leeds gig circa ’95/6, have been here in Nz for 10 years, used to follow them on their european tours as much as possible in 88-91. Dad threw out my clogs and all my precious tees years ago as mice got into them in the attic. Was gutted!

    Just done it the other way (Auckland-Glasgow) with Emirates, granted we had the kid with us so we got bulk head seats but AK/MLB/DBX/GLA really does suck regardless of the excellent service from the cabin crew. There is just no way that economy can make the 14 Melbourne to Dubai stretch any thing other than an ordeal. the return trip saw us getting10 hours in Dubai with a Hotel room thrown in, much better! Break up the journey by 24 hrs and you will at least get the feeling back in your legs and backside.

    I made the mistake of entrusting my entire collection of cds to a friend who managed a glasgow pub while I went to oz for a year, i lost:
    Electric soup- Hoodo gurus
    Ladies & gentlemen…-Spiritualised
    Candy apple grey-Husker Du
    The Good will out -Embrace
    Out of here -Corduroy
    I will never see them again as they were ‘borrowed’ by various staff members who denied everything.

    In NZ, really is a long way from family back in Scotland.
    As mentioned driving here is ludicrous,most people think indicators are painted on the car. no one says thanks when you give way to them.
    State highways are crap. you have to stop to let pedestrians cross the road on the main highway between the 2 largest cities, imagine that on the M1.
    large Methamphetamine problem which entails in pschos carving up people with samurai swords and then saying they can’t remeber doing it.
    limited choice of retail goods.
    Still wouldn’t go back to scotland unless bribed with a bathful of tenners with Scarlett Johannsen in it.

    Have just returned to Auckland NZ from a month in Greenock & Freuchie visiting parents and showing off grandchild in freezing cold weather. Been here 10.5 years and now realise how much I love this country.
