  7. Thumbing lifts; which too be fair I've semi-recently been re-doing to get down to OYB over a roughly 40mile route. One bit involving motorway section but quite a lot of good people still trust someone holding a motorbike helmet & florescent top over biker gear.

    The way I see things is if we allow the MSM too pollute our lives with fear & distrust we are done for! As the police don't seem to give a flying fuck about crime. Which is why I don't watched television for 4+years as it likes to feed negative thoughts into people.
     
  8. I remember not aching like a bastard when I got out of bed :(

  10. I'll have to start putting my glasses on 1st thing in the morning. When I 1st read that, I thought it said "acting like a bastard". I was nodding and agreeing with you @El Toro :grinning:

  11. no NPR. :upyeah:
     
  12. NPR?
     
  13. number plate recognition
     
  14. another thread just reminded me i wasn't always a model citizen.
     
  15. Thumbing lifts, good stuff, glad to hear it and trusting folk still exist. Agreed, it's despite the papers and the 10 O'clock misery programs.

    I remember when product names sounded good.
    Marathon bar changed to knickers, er no Snickers. Why?
    Banks had big safe names like National Westminster.
    'Egg' for a bank, I ask you?

    Ford Mustang, Triumph Spitfire, etc have all given way to names such as the Toyota Yaris!

    And Renault, what are they thinking? They had the Alpine.
    They now have a Duster, a Kadjar and ..... a Kwid!
    I couldn't drive one just because of the name.

    Mind you, I did have a Puch when I was a kid.

    I was too young to drink the horrible tasting stuff but I remember the ads, they were total crap.

  18. I always wanted some of these boots, the ones on the left with the laces on the side. If you had 'em you'd surely be the best player on the field! IMG_2093.JPG
