    London to Leeds - a doddle by train, only 3 hours.

    Might 'only' be 3hrs but I can do it in less than that in my car. I'm only 5 mins from bottom of the M1 where I am. And then of course there is the issue of my car being in London where I am in Leeds if I take a train. :cool:

    Do love your avatar, morag!

    Ta muchly. If I could photoshop I'd have changed it to reflect the snowy weather.

    I see the abuse team have had a veritable bloodbath this afternoon. Is it safe in here? Why did they get Afriend? That is a crying shame.

    FAO Carol :

    A pea ball - fritter - battered mushy peas :D

    Seems its only me and PN who know them by that name though!

    Think the difference seems to be down here most places do them in a spicy(ish) breadcrumb, rather than traditional batter- I LOVE THEM! :A (and really want one now :cool:)

    Oh gosh this name thing is complicated. If you're not logged in for a couple of hours, there's all these new personas around you have to figure out. It's a bit like a whole troupe of David Bowies, all Laughing Gnome one minute, Ziggy Stardust the next.

    V funny article on that here:

    for any fellow fans.

    Another yummy man. Bit old now. :(
