just had a new tow car ourselves. The last one only managed 215k, so hoping this one will do better!
another C220cdi Merc, but black, which is difficult to clean (apparently).
Enjoy the Fest xx

My black looks dirty from the start rains and gets cleaner. Get the boy out with the elbow grease

Project for today as it's the start of the spaghetti picking season in Lincolnshire, -- will have an hour this pm. -- pick your own. - Can't get it cheaper.

 

[Mel]

I remember that being a news item on Nationwide (?) in 1970 something. Pasta was an exotic foreign food in them days so loads of people thought it was genuine. :cheer:
Thanks
Mel

Showing your age Mel? --- No use pretending now!
Spaghetti-tree hoax
The spaghetti-tree hoax was a three-minute hoax report broadcast on April Fools' Day 1957 by the BBC current-affairs programme Panorama, purportedly showing a family in southern Switzerland harvesting spaghetti from the family "spaghetti tree"

(Might have been shown later too?)

 

[Mel]

Must have been repeated in the 1970s when I was very young as I was not old enough to watch TV in 1957.
Folks still fell for it.

PS -- Haggis should always be 'trapped', too much damage if you shoot or club!

PS -- Haggis should always be 'trapped', too much damage if you shoot or club!

If you are fortunate enough to encounter a herd of haggi the best possible method of trapping the wily little blighters is to blow a prolonged f sharp minor note on your flugelhorn.
Seasoned haggis trappers swear that the mellifluous prolonged flugelhorn note will induce a torpid state among the herd, thus making it much easier to trap one or two before they recover and flee.

Could be 'wild haggi' (is that the plural) along this road!

If she don't want to go to the pub!

 

[Niall_McIntosh]

If she don't want to go to the pub!

Is that Stow?

 

[Dustydog]

If she don't want to go to the pub!

Is that Stow?

Looks more like La Bondage Loire Valley

 

[otherclive]

If she don't want to go to the pub!

That’s all because the lady said that she wasn’t going to drive back from the pub.
