    Is that all? Place near Bishop Auckland, burned out houses, broken-glass paving, and not one garage with the door still left on. Of course the most popular flower was the Front-Garden Sofa (Setteeis Knackerdus).

    And I happened to break down there...fantastic... :rolleyes:

    It's amazing how place names are re-used all over the country. And they're all holes in the ground.

    There must be a law somewhere ensuring it. Maybe the Incongruous Names for Sinkhole Housing Estates Act - 1947. There's not some place in Glasgow called Belle View (or some variant) is there..?

    So keep practicing. And one day you'll suddenly have a thought "Is this a matter - or a don't matter..?"

    But you will have done enough... ;)

    Can I take this out of context with a clear concience..? Of course... :D
    ooo now Nigella's on!

    Isn't she always? Do we get to admire her beauteous beauties tonight again?

    Sounds scary but as it was very dark and rainy I can't say if there were sofas or not. I recognised a bridge on the way back and then there was a moment of terror as a Tesco had sprung up that wasn't there last time I went that way but luckily all was well.
