She's doing well then...it was over 40 years ago!
She was a looker though!

Posting at twenty five minutes past one in the morning Ian, have you been to Browns in Shoreditch?

Once hired a stripper named Angelique, whose act used big snakes!

How is your wife, HeathClaret?

Alive, well and still pole dancing Ian

They are all Clarets though. Five born in England and five born in France.

Love my XF but practicality is pushing me towards the E-Pace ....

E pace is nice, but............... it’s an SUV. XF Chequered flag, that’s a car!

Just had to remove a 6 foot black racer snake from my garage. Extending golf ball retriever works a treat

Where do you live FC? Our local shop has a rattlesnake, not for sale, fascinating to watch. Wouldn’t want to meet one in the wild though.

Wow great car HC

Thanks Mr T, unhappily, not mine. It belongs to a friend who owns the local chip shop.

It’s a nice car, very loud, and fast, no use to a bloke with ten kids, seven under the age of sixteen.

It is my driveway though

Oh come on Boss, I thought you might have said something about the spyder, you being a man who knows his cars.

Lovely painted toenails, Heathclaret

Would you believe me if I said the toes belong to the wife, honest

The snake is Nero, Royal Python. She, the wife, has four snakes, three Royal and one reticulated. Feeding time is quite entertaining.

Andre Gray is a great example of someone who previously held bigoted views but learned the error of their ways and can be a force for change. He's someone a lot of people could learn from. I'm proud he played for us.

To clarify the 1 in 1000 statistic further. The statistic I posted is that 1 in 1000 men, in the WHOLE DURATION of their lives will die at the hands of the police. If I picked a selection of 1000 black men in the USA at random, then statistically 1 of them WOULDN'T die at the hands of the police, b...

Not sure of the relevance of one of your favourite actors being Denzel Washington is but anyway... Why haven’t you countered my post about Sadiq Khan to add to your unprovoked personal attack?

He's not my favourite actor of all time by the way. My favourite actor of all time is Mister Sidney Poitier.

Sorry, I tried but I couldn’t resist a bit of Brent.

Is this funny? Sorry, never watched Brent.

If only one side of the narrative is drilled into your mind then most will accept it, hence the existence of racism, homophobia and religion. I don’t really know what point you are trying to make. At school, a point is not drilled in to your head. Once you go on to further education and self educat...

Where did I say remove references? I've actually said we should have places that are designed to tell the whole tale and make visits compulsory, did you blink and miss that one? I don't want our history erased, but nor do I want us to be taught selective parts of it. We don't need a statue in the s...

I am chilled bro, I’m watching a film with one of my favourite actors in, you might have heard of him, Denzel Washington. I answered one of your posts a few days ago, it was somewhat lengthy and I took a few visits to compile my response. Unfortunately, I was timed out and when I went to post the re...

Heathclaret

Cheers pal. I wish I could return the complement but I honestly can’t remember a single post of yours. Not really surprising as you don’t really take any notice of what anybody writes unless it fits in with your revisionist claptrap. Your one line responses and populist opinions are as childish as ...

So racism doesn’t exist in this country because the Mayor of London is from a minority ethnic group? Sounds legit.

Rileybobs with more of his off the cuff bullshit.

We are taught a white washed version of British history though. That's how it works, the victor's write and teach their version of events. Japan are reviled for not teaching their kids about their horrendous crimes during WW2, but in all fairness we aren't much better. Should a number of statues be...

The current Mrs Croydon had her hub caps nicked from the White Bear.

I’ve had many a shift chasing people round Pollards Hill! You still there Heathclaret?! Hi TsarBomba, No, I never lived there, luckily enough, my wife’s family come from there, but none of them live there now.

My other half is from London and she thought it was absolutely hilarious that somebody was sat in the booth by the door checking membership and the like. Not something you ever think about when you grow up with it. I told her she needs to get used to Northern ways if she wants to come to Burnley ag...

Congratulations to you both. Enjoy every minute.

Some cracking films mentioned, another couple to add to the list.

The Fisher King.
The Prince of Tides.

I think most people do, but they aren't willing to give up things like cheap flights or fast fashion, so that's that. One positive that may come out of this is a reduction in air travel. Flying needs to go back to being something people do once a year, rather than being able to fly all over Europe ...

It’s not a issue about pay - was listening to the Romanians being flown in on the charter flights saying they were getting £9-10 per hour. It’s probably more a question of graft - I work with in a company that recruits locally and overseas. The Eastern Europeans are the hardest workers by far - and...

Levy and Bezos look very similar, are they really the same person?

I agree with you, unfortunately capitalism doesn’t, manufacture in a third world country with no H&S regulations and no worker’s rights for far less expense means more profit for the people at the top. I was listening to the radio on the way to work yesterday, the discussion was about the lack of ag...

Can anyone else feel an all-time Burnley " hard-men " team thread coming up ? Brian Miller and Tarks at C/B, Andy Lochead paired with John Gayle up front, Kevin Ball and Lenny Johnrose in midfield maybe with Ronnie Jepson on the bench ?? Chris Eagles on the wing ?

She started in 86 Heath at Ford House. When BGS sold Ford they moved all the juniors up to Collingwood (which became Bridge house weirdly) and both Senior and junior girls moved down to Bridge.
