Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

Well I didn't make the observation., but I can understand the sentiment. It's not going to fit everybody's lifetime.

 

I'm working on it but struggling. Was it true what Fable let slip on the radio?

 

She has a great voice LTL not my sort of music though.

 

Went to Glastonbury last year. This year I've only got tickets for Rock Werchter in Belgium at the moment.

 

*nods*

 

Nothing wrong with that WJ!

 

Humping and spraying .................

 

As you know I'm no music maestro, but that is stunning. I really hope you/she starts getting the coverage that deserves. Chillingly beautiful. Mesmerising.

 

Thanks Fats. Very kind!

 

We still need to get her to a Saints game and the Old Farmhouse mind you!

 

Ha ha... Does she do Ska then?

 

No, but she does real ale.

 

Proper job*


*currently the guest ale in my local - never heard of it until this week. It's lovely. Very hoppy

 

St. Austell brewery, I'm surprised it travels as far as you Fats! Nice pint though, I agree.

 

Yes, St Austell. First time I've seen it. Went in there last night as my Dad was up for dinner and they give you a card to collect 8 stamps (1 every pint of Proper Job you buy). I had three last night and I am off this week decorating and so took my son to the pub for lunch while the wife went to the hairdressers... 4 more to go and I get a free Prooer Job Tankard

I don't frequent the pub much, but I think I'll buy the wife lunch tomorrow ...

 

ITV's report tonight on the plane hijacking earlier today:

- the man's 'suicide belt' was made of iPhone cases strapped to him
- he demanded the plane to divert to Larnaca in Cyprus, when it was meant to be going from Cairo to Alexandria
- the man has serious mental health issues
- he was trying to win back his relationship with his estranged wife
- he never threatened to kill the passengers, hence why they were so calm when disembarking


Awful timing and it was scary for a lot of people. It's just a very sad story all round, I think. Daft, but sad.

Some strange thought processes going on from the man in question for him to think that was a possible solution.

 

Good beer!

 

I find this unlikely, yet amusing.

I particularly like the fact that the Telegraph had to include a generic potato photo in case we had forgotten what one was!

 

Also, after my own experiments in making crisps, I can state with some authority that having one whole potato in a standard crisp bag is the most that has ever been in one. I would estimate that a normal bag of crisps contains about 2/3rds of one generic potato.
