    Most of the world has a climate, we have weather There's no such thing as the wrong weather just the wrong cloths Unfortunately there's not many Tarzans in this jungle who wear cloths these days. A big wooly jumper is sufficient. I'll keep my leapord skin loin cloth for the bedroom Mine is a python skin one

    There was also a Theresa Green at my school, also a gentelman with the surname Hunt . I worked with a guy who I can't think of his first name with the surname Riddle, of course he was called Jimmy. I also worked with another guy who would wear the same shirt all week, he was christened Daz. I worked with a George Best who stank.Even my egg/tea stained tie was changed every day.

    A guy I worked with had the AA following him around in his MG. It will be a cayman for me when I upgrade.Although Mrs Peter has a Hyundai S111 coupe,when I swapped her Pug 307 diesel for this I had tears,and every bonus Just very little goes wrong,it clunks,gets serviced and thats it.

    Mushy peas yummie. My nans suet steak and kidney pud took some beating.I can remember linen and string being used.The suet soaked in gravey was served 1st. This was then flushed down with proper tea before the veg and meat was served. and grandad would give me pre 47 silver and let me roll him a smoke.(baccy only

    No disrepect but the are all as common as lambs droppings in April.As can be said of 1758 shillings,1754 farthings (not the 4/0) and 1853 farthings ( the incuse are rarer).Just avoid.I also have obtained over 10 1720 farthings

    big 5pence

    Peter replied to saracarsonsaracarson sarac's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries

    I'd say that its metal content is now worth more than 5p! Yeah, but then you need a couple of kg of them to make it worth while! Peck I was stashing pre 92 copper away.I got to £20 and realised I could make a tenner...sorry it aint going to be my forte.

    Mrs Peter's chicken pie is stunning.I won't knock Greggs because they are OK. Home made is the best as at least you can see what is in it. I like a farmers market and fresh fish.How many have my daughters friends never eaten real food? I have served up lobster/cromer crab and brown shrimp with hot home made bread & the yuckie salad with a good balsamic vinegar...gone...I still like a bucket of KFC with a couple of Ossie largers

    I worked near a Greggs in Canning Town(Jubileee line) only a 195mile comute and quite frankly the choice between Greggs/Eels and pies or Asian delights was awfull.Ban em all I say. Happily I now work with a cheese and onion flat bread,proper sausages and the occasional pint of lunch time ale or a nice Greek salad followed by a siesta. Istill like a Curry when fueled with Minovois and a gut full of Abbot.

    at the end of the day it will be supply and demand.Mrs Peter bought 2 hot chickens for £2 each from Asda as they were past the 2hr rule.Let the poor eat cake
