If you see a Scania flying around the dark lanes of kettering with the driver drooling at the wheel, it'll be me!

Sorry sorry sorry! :oops:

Same pub I just got the name wrong! :lol:

A good evening.

I think we need to look at a Sunday meet in January where we can hopefully see Blacky in full JPS style!

Have a good Christmas folks and catch you soon!

Great idea Stef, think it will have to be either the end of Jan or beginning of Feb for Blacky to be finished, will keep you informed ?

It seems the Oldham accent is alive and well.

At the bar last night -

I asked for two pints of IPA, a pint of bitter shandy and a coke. The barmaid poured the first three drinks out and whilst doing so kept asking 'is there anything else' I kept replying 'a coke please' she disapeared, had a word with the other barmaid who then placed a wine cork on the bar. I looked at it for a few seconds and soon came to the conclusion that you southern softies obviously dont understand proper talk! :roll:

And that actualy happened :shock:

BTW, GOOD night :!: :)

Yes, a good night, tonight here will be dull by comparison. Dico, I'll sort out a DVD for the first opportunity in the New Year and bring it with me.

As it happens..... the following morning i was driving up the A road which leads to the A1 when a very uneasy feeling came over me. I put it down to the fact i was on an icey unlit A road with no room for error, but soon realised i was passing 'THE' graveyard :shock:
Coincidence or just to much IPE ?

Cheers Nige :smt023

Phaps we could organise a Sunday meet, either late Jan/Early Feb like last year ?

At least that keeps the Northerner away :lol:
