    Blimey, you lot are quiet - between post 80901 and this one, I've been out for dinner :rotfl:

    Selected Stonehouse carvery places are doing 2 for 1 on carvery on Mondays so we thought we'd go there for a change. It's in walking distance and £12.50 for two main meals and drinks is ok by me :D

    Been busy chatting to a mate. Funny how many kids films we have both seen, a conversation that will doubtless continue tomorrow.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    I read some sad news for motor sport fans today. Ex Moto GP world champion Nicky Hayden passed away today after a pushbike accident last week :(
