    BBC3 Axed

    BBC3 was past it before it really got there However, as we're in TV land, i'm rather partial to 'Yesterday' which is great for Nazi hunters and stuff like that Of course that 'stuff' is solo watching, my other half looks and groans silently when she see's what i'm watching "At least it's not Dave" I feebly plead as she heads upstairs But leave BBC4 well alone please
  2. Just found this on The Guardian website ... and then slap a Bad Regional Ad in here like this ... "You haven't had any accounts of bad regional ads from the south," writes Tom Morton. "Please allow me to redress the balance. I'm still haunted by an ad for the Yeovil Sheepskin Shop, a sheepskin shop in, um, Yeovil, which ran on TVS in the 1980s. There was no action in the commercial, merely a series of photos of the exterior and interior of the shop, and an inexplicably jolly voiceover detailing the parking facilities. The ad ended on a high note with the endline: The Yeovil Sheepskin Shop. It's Well Worth A Visit." ... but let's hope that never happens, though, because that would be shoddy.
  3. In Sussex you had ad's for The Yeovil Sheepskin Centre Lots of cutaways and people posing in dodgy car dealer sheepskin All the fonts were in that Ye Olde style Overdubbed with "the Yeovil sheepskin centre" repeatedly Arg, it still haunts me
  4. Oh lord yes, you're in the Bermuda Triangle that is Sydenham, Forrest Hill and that bit by Horniman It's utterly dead, good luck with a signal booster, but don't hold your breath
  5. Mind you, i'm sure you put a written note explaining the purpose of that bin You did didn't you, of course you did Else why would someone be so knowingly selfish I do actually park my trade vehicles way up our road, the bit where nobody else wants to park. Sometimes though on a Saturday I need to move them near mine to load/unload Just rattling your cage 10 points to me *ding-ding*
  6. My silly neighbour has the same 'thing' about parking his car/s outside his house. I've explained to him that his boundary doesn't extend to the street, he's not good at taking that fact on board though So now i've invented a game where I park there as often as I can. A full car or pick-up or occasionally my transit across the whole property gets a 10. There after it decreases in points as the space misses his house A royal flush is where all three of my vehicles are parked in a row. Him and his other half wait by the window to see if the spaces become free, I even caught him rolling the car back into a space in the dark, so nobody could park there. When his other half came home she rang him and he moved his car forward again It's such a fun game that if I want to go out i'll get into my car, as if i'm about to go out and start it. he'll then jump up to move into the space, (he doesn't know he can be seen through his glass door) at which point i'll kill the engine and change vehicles, usually into my pick-up truck up the road. As I pass he'll usually be at the window muttering. I've informed him of my point scoring system btw Lastly, it's a public space, so get over it
  7. Agree about the cafe in/on the Rye, but the breakfast is good. For a trad cafe I like The Oak in Honour Oak. It's good, clean and fresh
  8. I steam my chicken before it gets stir fried or curried Turn chunks in a little oil, then plonk it in the steamer. It stays really white and tender
  9. Badoit for a hangover Tizer as a child A can of Lilt once in a while
