Gordon, have just the part for you, my granddaughter is making a horror film project, all I have to do is supply her with our smoke machine from the workshop and a generator to drive it. By the way how are you getting on with the game of bowels with Jerry.

Healthy and happy new year everyone, plus its Tetley's at home but Harrys coffee in the workshop.

I haven't been playing with Jerry's "bowels" but we did play ten pin "bowls" the other night !
I'm not going to say what happened but I haven't played for at least 45 years so I was bit rusty, we are playing again in the week but the management didn't like my zimmer frame on the lane !

We all saw the new year in up in Mojacar square and this year Sue didn't disgrace herself !

Gordon, saw the new year in in a pub called 'The George Inn' in a place called Trottiscliffe, smashing food and service and a great time had by one and all, plus I did disgrace myself, meant to call Paul down but left my mobile at home.

Yes I know the George as Paul lives just up the road, I take it you know it's pronounced " Troz - lee"
Anyway I'm "orf" to bed as we are one hour ahead and Sue went a couple of hours ago (hopefully she will be fast asleep) she beat me at scrabble tonight and had a smile on her face !

Lapsang Suchong anyone ? ( that's smokey bacon tea in Delta parlance! )

finally we have a break in the weather, so Arthur and I are off on a bike ride, he's been staring out the window waiting, as well as riding up and down the back lane in the piddling rain on his new racer.

I remember the last picture Gordon. Sadly I don't need to go to the hairdressers anymore.
Been amaized tonight.Me Mrs Delta and Delta daughter watching a film then the music came up at the end and I wanted to know what it was. Daughter told me straight away, "How the Fu-k" did you know that I say. Something to do with her phone told her. That's impressive.
I see the "Rush" DVD is out on Amazon. £ 10.00. that tells a story.

John, I suspect I've covered most of the calendars although I think the AMOC might be missing. However as and when I find details I can add them in.

Soundhound, I hope you're not paying her phone bill. I started watching Rush dubbed in French the other day but it was such poor quality and buffered every thirty seconds I gave up, what I saw though did look good.

Does anyone know how to find out when a vehicle was manufactured? I see the historic vehicle excise licence rolls to Jan 1974 in April. My Jaguar was first registered in June 74 so in true BL tradition it may have sat in a field for a year or so before going on the road.
