...I'm off back to Scallypool at the weekend for the first time in a couple of years.
Now I'm not a scouser myself but for a few years I lived mostly in Crosby and also in Waterloo for a while. Waterloo should be nuked urgently (apart from the 'The Liver' boozer that I have a certain affection for.)
Crosby is nice though and we are staying Saturday night there with family so I wont have to nail my mobile phone to my hip.
Sunday however we are staying at a hotel in Southport. I have my telescope with me so I will be able to see the sea.
I may even have time to go to the cake shop for a hallucinogenic bun. happy088

yep i am scouser born an bred, lived there for 43 yrs of my life, and never had any problems, so cant be that bad hey surrender:
the reason i dont go bak so often is you can get to paris cheaper than a train ticket to liverpool, madness! sad24:

I 'spect that applies to everyone's home town. I grew up in Southampton and, in the fifties and sixties there was nowhere that I wouldn't go, without thought. Now I wouldn't dare walk down the High Street after 6 in the evening. TBH I used to feel safer on the streets of North London ten years ago than I do now in this small village. The world (or at least the UK) has changed beyond all recognition in the last few years. Everywhere is nastier, more dangerous and seems to me to be full of potential trouble ~ and I'm not as fit as I used to be.
I hadn't realised you were travelling by train either. Tho' with petrol prices the way they are it's probably not that much more expensive.

Went to the isle of wight a few years ago if that counts? Took about a 6 hour round trip from Swanage. I could have gone half way round the planet in that time and for less money. Angry9:

I am sure Prof. Nick will confirm that it depends on the subject-object usage.
"It doesn't matter to you and me" is correct, as is: "You and I know there are no trains in the bakery"
Test it by omitting the "You and. ." then see if it sounds right.
"It doesn't matter to I" is obviously not correct, as is: "Me know there are no trains in the bakery" (unless you are called Ebrell)
My English Masters had very firm ideas on the subject. .
I shall now stop preaching. redface:

That about sums it up. Though I appreciate the invites and will try to get round and let Mrs TG talk your ears off next time.
As Mrs TG goes with her son to the airport on Sunday I may be able to find the cake shop. There again I may get rat-arsed and not be able to find anything. noooo:

Scooter Report: Good bit of kit, able to carry my weight, 8mph top speed, 21 mile range. 5.5inch ground clearance so able to cover most terrain that I am likely to encounter. Easy to drive, bit of a fag to break into component parts to fit into the boot of your car and once in there leaves no space for anything other than a small bag. The basket, TG will be pleased to know, is an option and removable. Price £5,750.00. Charge time on batteries from zero to full is about 5 hours. Batteries are shielded so no problems with any magnetic interference with my ICD.
Salesman Report: Frankly in my previous occupation I would not have even interviewed him. Stunk of cheap aftershave, wet handshake and too "matey" by far. Tried all the old sales tricks even to "borrowing" my phone to speak to his "manager" to see if he could get permission to offer me a "deal" at which point the manager asked to speak to me and told me (obviously reading his script) that "Barry" had made such a strong plea on my behalf he was prepared to drop, on this occasion from £5,750 to £3,500 and if I handed the phone back to "Barry" he would confirm his permission that this discount could be applied. I gave up using that old gag forty years ago when I left the employ of Bristol Street Motors and stopped selling cars for a living. I honestly didn't think anyone would still be trying to pull that stunt. noooo:
Anyway I did not buy, even at this fantastic price, leaving "Barry" professing his dismay at my willingness to pass up such an offer. I know I can buy a recon model, 12 months old, locally c/w a warranty for under £1,000.
Still it passed a happy couple of hours away.
-
I almost feel sorry for "Barry". But not very sorry eveilgrin:
-
You might know of a certain Tony Pawson then?
'Fraid not.
Prepare yourselves for: "It was this long, but it got away". noooo:
They never get away from me (Barbed hooks and bugger the bunny huggers) eveilgrin:
-
I almost feel sorry for "Barry". But not very sorry eveilgrin:
Don't ~ I have all the windows open to rid the house of his aftershave afterglow. It must have cost all of a quid for a five litre bottle ~ talk about Eau De Vapona (Kills all known flies within a radius of 100 yards)

Okay... I am in the lounge... in front of the telly... with a beer... and laptop... cloud9:
We've had a 'techie' day... suddenly twigged we could get all the BBC radio stations through interwebby so set up laptop in lounge with speakers and lisened to........... (I hardly dare print it) radio Norfolk..... talking about all our old haunts...could visualise the road chaos when the car overturned on the A47 etc etc.... it was really odd... especially when the mid-day news came on and we realised we'd missed lunch over here!!!
Sad people!!!! scared2:
Now if only you knew someone who knew anything about the interweb thingy and stuff like that HE might have told you about that before whistle:

Mrs TMR (to be) and I are in the Costswolds town of Faringdon. Odd people, odder haircuts and all appear to be pissed. They are staring at us in a strange way.
Perhaps my "Good evening, carrot-crunchers" opening gambit may have been flawed.
-
lol:
-
This pub we are in is a bit strange. It seems that if you are hungry, you merely go into the kitchen and cook youself something. No money is exchanged.
-
Arrangements for locals are often different to those offered to visitors.

We have partaken of Classical Cotsworldshireville cuisine at the Viceroy Tandoori. Absolutely lovely, however one of the chilli's in my Jallfrezi (local spelling) must have been spawned in Satan's own bottom after she, herself, had noshed on a phall in his local Hades Halal. Mrs TMR (to be) laughed like a drain as various parts of my face turned to streams of various liquids...

Good grief noooo:

News travels fast - that's revenge for "carrot crunchers" that is... scared2:

Morning ablutions passed off without thermonuclear outfall.

Still all quiet on the Southern Front.
We went to the Trout farm in Bibury. They have a great business plan - you pay to go in and then you pay for the food to feed their fish that they then sell!
When Mrs TMR (to be) got her Trout pellets, I naturally told her not to have any.
I think the limp will be getter with time...
-
Trout pellets? Like dehydrated trout? Just add water?
-
::)
-
Only problem with trout pellets is that if you eat a fish that has been reared on them, the fish tastes of trout pellets and that is bloody awful.
Trout pellets are bloody good for attracting carp (mainly on commercial waters) when fishing.
Even better when used in conjunction with casters.
Whilst TMR and Mrs TMR (to be) are idling away their time, I have been supporting the real pub which is pretty deserted this Bank Holiday weekend.
-
Good man, Tel. Did I win the horse racing? I must have been in with a good shout.
-
So what are trout pellets made of? And how do you know what they taste like?
-
Is this a genuine search for knowledge or are you just bored?
-
I am waiting for summat to cook, but what are they made of and how does he know that trout taste of them without having eaten them himself. Eh?
-
Even better when used in conjunction with casters.
eeek:
What, the fish have wheels on?
Is that a side effect of the pellets?

You beat me to it... cussing:

Trout pellets are made of ground down fish bones, smoked Beagle bollocks, toupee of Barman, hob-nob of Nick and Sileage of DS. The trout do well on it.
They can be crushed, frittered and fried with batter of Wenchy according to unverified rumours.
The Viceroy Tandoori awaits the return leg...
