    Very appropriate for tonight.

    :)) :)) :)) Fantastic! No, we didn't though!

    (One thing- when we went into the bar the weather was cold but dry. When we emerged hours later there was a fair bit of snow which was still falling so we had a very careful drive home.)

    It went over a storm- they loved it!

    (Our drummer sings that one, playing a tambourine, and went walkabout through the dancers during the instrumental solo on mandolin- he didn't make it back in time (kept getting grabbed by ladies!) so I had to sing the chorus till he got back, which was a bit of a change. The audience were ok with it though.)

    Glad to hear it went well {[] pull up a healthy fried breakfast

    No square sausage sandwich.

    I have a Scottish Pikey friend who when we have ever gone out for a fry up ordered a sausage and not eaten it, I thought it very strange, I asked him why he does it, he said it looks better on the plate :))

    (A radio controlled Aston Martin zooms in through the dog sized cat flap, bursts past Holly's basket, circles a couple of tables and weaves between the mods armchairs. It then disappears behind the bar. - TB2, is standing there holding the controller and grinning like a loon.)

    Evening folks! I went to the Beaulieu Motor Museum today. Amazing place!
    Anyone else been?
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 37,889Chief of Staff
    No, but it sounds like fun. Today I was on one of the tours of spooky old Edinburgh, prowling around the subterranean city not usually seen.
  • Thunderbird 2Thunderbird 2 East of Cardiff, Wales.Posts: 2,817MI6 Agent
    The Underground tour is one of the things I missed out on the entire time I was living there!
    More's the pity. Not had the chance since.

    One thing puzzled me at Beaulieu. The only Bond vehicle was Zao's Jaguar from DAD.
    There was a timeline mention in the guide with a few pics, including Sir Roger in the Spectre tour DBS, and Wing Cmdr Wallace, but that was it. Has The House of Eon driven off in its own way with Bond In Motion?

    Marvelous place either way.

    Tonight there was an avalanche on the road I use driving to work. It's a 15 feet high wall crossing the road.
    A Coke Zero on the rocks, please :o
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Only 15 feet ( do you guys not use meters ? ) I though the plucky
    Norwegians would have that cleared in a few minutes :p ;)
    At least there'll be plenty of ice for the coke zero.

  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,352MI6 Agent
    We use meters, but I've heard you guys leave when asked to cooperate with people who use meters :v
    It's one of the major Easter holydays and Sunday today and the avalanche was very wide too, so it won't open until tomorrow. They have checked with dogs if anyone was caught by the avalanche, so there is no great hurry.
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    :)) It's just that "Feet and Inches" is the proper measurment ;)
    I do appreciate how you used it. As I do have to convert Meters,
    in to Imperial measurments. :D

  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 22,352MI6 Agent
    Yes. Inches, feet, yards and miles are much more logical than the metric system :D
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Just you wait until we bring back
    Pounds, shillings and pence :D

    I was thinking about going to see the new Black Panther movie, but they haven't been the same since Peter Sellers died.

    I just had my first Coke Zero in the new tin. Predominately red front with a black band across the top and the rest of the tin black. Not quite sure why they felt compelled to change the old black tins, but I guess some designer somewhere just got a bonus.

    Same sh1t - new wrapping! :))

    I have just found new book:

    "Resist - say no to self improvement!"

    The book also list seven steps to a better life: :))

    1) Stop trying to get in touch with your emotions

    2) Focus on the negatives

    3) Put on your No- hat

    4) Suppressed your emotions

    5) Fire your life coach

    6) Read a novel instead

    7) Dwell on the past

    Pageant?! I have more than enough to manage around here without adding something on that scale.

    :o Oh Crikey, I completely forgot! (Dashes off carrying one of the notepads....)

    Didn't mean to disturb you, TB2.

    Is anyone interested enough in the Pink Panther movies for me to start a thread on them?

    I like Pink Panther movies, Peter Sellers, and Henry Mancini ... please do

    I always found the scene with cleausou administering the laughing gas to former chief inspector dreyfus hilarious, it gives me stomach ache from laughing so much. Wonderful films.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood
