I think this young person's referring to thee and me Dick - which bit do you want - the arms or the legs? After you :twisted:

Going to build a wee house on the site, but not for a couple of years yet. Until then we'll use it to camp on when we go on holiday 8)

Congrats to your son Ken, there's always a call for engineers over here when he's qualified :D

Great thinking Tracy - maybe take a pic from the site so we can drool at the view. Don't forget a wee house for the Cappo too :)

Thanks for the good wishes for my son. Right now travelling up the coast to Melbourne. Planning a return on March 14th but I hope that's just a visa thing and that the decision is to return and settle in NZ or Oz - I know they've really loved them both.

Now there's something to smile about - I've got two of each for you to fight over (and they all work properly) :)

Something else to smile about? how's about my little Cappy, tucked up nice 'n dry out of the wind and rain in her garage, and just waiting to greet me when I go to get her out when the weather's better again.

All together now... Aaaaah!

Shilpa Shetty winning Celebrity Big Brother :D

A triumph of elegance, poise, beauty, intelligence, self-control and breeding
over the usual M25/Essex, out of control, ignorant mongrel culture that's 'ruled' Popular Culture in the UK for too long.

A joy to behold.

Now that's what I call 'showing your pride'! :wink:

I've never watched Big Brother but I have followed the events of the last week or so on the News.

Frankly, it made me rather ashamed of what the UK has become. The out of control, ignorant mongrel culture as Ken so aptly puts it seems to dominate everything nowadays whether it is popular culture, industry or finance.

That and the scavenging scum on Branscombe beach of course!

At least on the BB programme the 'better' side of human won through in the contest.

For me personally - as the father of kids that do watch Big Brother - it's great to see Shilpa come out on top.

What a lovely role model she is for my teenage daughter.

Finding out that 400 years ago today Gloucester got virtually wiped off the map by a tsunami.

Shame about most of North Devon, Somerset and Wales up to the Gower though.

Not universally accepted to be a tsunami though. See e.g. this.
