Tinned Corned Beef.

Likely to lose a limb or two.

The secret to safely opening corned beef, is to take the paper off the tin 1st. Rolling the tin and paper onto the opener is a disaster waiting to happen.

Love the Doors!

I'm equally baffled, not sure where that came from and I definitely didn't write it, but I always write the reports in Word before transferring them and it's in there too.

It's now been removed.

Great report Tony. There's still a couple of typos in there though.

Barry Sheene or James Hunt, preferably both together.

Right at the start of the video I posted you can see the goalkeepers in the background. It looks like Trafford is there but has his back to the camera so can't be 100%.

The fans who are in the CFS or Jimmy Mac should be able to recognise him!

It really was a great day, I was on weekend leave at my mates house in Newport. Apart from the concert I spent the rest of the night with his mother in law!

I was at Maine Road in 1986 for Queen

If it was the Kind of magic tour, I saw this in Marbella

The quest isn't over yet, but I've found this place in Falmouth today. Only one shop and they make all their own pasties. Mine was straight from the oven.
I have it in my top 3. The others are:- St Ives Bakery and Niles from last summer, which was in Fowey.

Jel

Huncoat village chippy is always good. I go every Friday and have spent £86 there one day. Not all for me, I hasten to add.

Jel

Are any of these traditional pasties, with the pudding at one end? I haven't seen them like this, although I know it was the original idea. The reason was for the miners to be able to eat both foods, the pastry protected it from the dust, and the crust was there to hold the pasty with dirty hands, ...

Helston, I mean

Jel

Again will always recommend Sarah’s in Looe, really good, had some delivered up here a few week back but went to Cornwall in April and went to Gear Farm for a pasty, honestly amazing. Its in St Martins in Helston, bit of a ballache to get to but well worth it I'm only about 6 miles from there, so w...

We get the Philps ones delivered to us up here (in bulk) In Porthleven you need to get there early as they can only make so many in the small bakery they have there. Magic.

Off down there again and am excited to find on Google, that Philps have a shop in the village we are staying in.

If this is true then it's a crazy decision in my view. As jedi_master says, they only stayed down because of two clubs getting 100 points.

And loosing the play off final, again!

Is it that dodgy bloke from Bolton

Day of the Jackal, one of my favourite books. The original film is very good too.

I thought this might have been about trees!

It's great to hear of success in our younger lads.
Good news for the future.
BTW there's a couple of typos in paragraph 5 Tony

Let's hope he doesn't get the stick that Andy Murray received.

I wish him every success

If he wears a Croatia shirt when Scotland play them, he won't get any stick from me!

Jel

I thought this was going to be about either jeans or sunglasses. I couldn't work out which!

Jel

It's quite possible, a good portion of the crowd that attacked him, were drunk, on drugs, or both.

Consider switching to pineapple. Decent sized ones for about a quid in most supermarkets. Excellent source of vitamin C and other nutrients; tasty and easy enough to keep and chop up if you have a sharp knife. Amazing how cheap they are. I like Pineapple, (just not on Pizza). I bought a corer which...

Great report Tony. Just a thought, about the satnav. Did you try Google maps on a phone? It's usually very good, and it's live, so it informs of delays, and will reroute if necessary.

Jel

I hope that unsettles the players. Champions title to us.
I also think that you missed a catchier title, by using just 2 words, one being off

Jel

BTW, we should mention winning the league at their place

Jel

Just clocking up 5500 days, basically 15 years since they beat us

I don't think so, but they are Trill seakers!

I find it bewildering, some of the things people complain about!
They need to remove the stick from their arsenal!

I've just recently had a vaccination for pneumonia, I think it was for bacterial and doesn't prevent viral.
I hope Eddie gets better soon.

Green Hydrogen can be created through wind and wave power and currently it takes about 3kw's of green electricity to make 1kw of green hydrogen. The benefit is that unlike electricity you can store hydrogen so whilst currently we pay to keep windfarms turned off when there isnt the demand for the e...

Just seen a post from him on FB, so he's okay

On episode 3 and it's very tense

Jel

I've tried a search of this and I'm surprised that there's no results.
It's a quite brilliant series about a drugs cartel in Liverpool. I strongly recommend it.
Anyone else watching?

The pitch looks awful!

I've been interested, and dabbling in crypto for a good few years now. Never really seriously with BTC although if I still held what I had it would be worth around 5.5k now. I took a profit on Ripple (XRP), about 4 years ago. It would be a hell of a lot more now. However, XRP, I think is likely make...

Did Steve really head home Tony - if so, the pictures I were watching were worse than I thought?

I thought that it was a shot/bundle from close range too.

I’d expect him to be our left sided centre back next season.

I’m actually OK with Pires if we’re in the Championship again next season. I don’t think he’s been anywhere near as bad as is made out.

2 strikers!

Sorted now

The Park cafe in Barrowford does good food. Full English is about £8. The place isn't very big and only has about 3 tables and a breakfast bar. It's right opposite 117 so you should get into one of them.
Tubbs at Colne is a good shout too

Redmound?

Like a shaving rash?

Is it possible that he's been put out on the wing to gain confidence? He's clearly a decent player, and being out there doesn't have to be so prolific. When Edwards is up to speed/fitness, I feel that Foster maybe brought back into the the centre.

Some sad news for you, my mate who lives in Frigiliana texted me to say that Brian, who runs the El Bosque bar in Nerja has passed away. Didn't know him well but he was a footy man, keen supporter of Sheff Utd, and was always very obliging and ready to talk footy if he had the time. Very popular ba...
