Called in on my way through last October for some lunch and then went back in for an evening meal. I'd give the food a seven out of ten, the service was variable depending on who you got....... Initially walked in, asked if I could have a meal and was offered a bag of crisps! I then asked to look at a menu, she went off and failed to find one, but another member of staff came along and quickly sorted me out. After I had my evening meal I went and sat at the other end of the pub to sup a pint or two and had quite a long chat with who I assumed to be the manageress, asked me a lot o

Going in the woods (where the trees are) saves having to empty the cassette or pay for a pump out.......

Just make sure it is hot, salty and your bed is rock 'ard.

Don't forget a squirt of oil in the governor.

I've also used RCR's RCR's route planner in the past.

Just got back from a weeks boating. Didn't watch any TV. Barely listened to the radio for more than a few minutes. Can't say I missed it....... Used a little bit of internet. Just busy doing stuff!

Auld guy I drink with used to work for Midland Red and tells me that they never used anti-freeze in their busses because they were never switched off for long enough to cool down. When Midland Red were taken over the new management gave orders to put anti-freeze in and it all turned out to be a bit of a disaster, with burst hoses, blown head-gaskets, you name it it failed!

I just wish that Starbucks would stop using the word "coffee" to describe what it is that they do!

We made a prototype / demonstrator unit which one of the Register members took over when we sold the company. It was capable of running on waste oil, although it was demonstrated at the Royal Show using some form of veg based fuel.

Like that, have a greenie!

My Dad had throat cancer and had to have a PEG fitted. He was able to continue boating, although he sometimes had complications that compromised his boating. Most of them were not related to the PEG tube although on one of our boating trips we had to get Dad ambulanced off the boat at Braunston due to a bleed in his stomach and he had to spend a week in Northampton General. We used to have to find space for all his bottles of special food but obviously we did not have to shop for him.
