Hubert Booth invented the vacuum cleaner in 1901, as any fule kno. The antichrist you refer to is that Dyson chap. As you so eruditely posit, dandies such as Herbert Hoover, Dyson and Mr. Shark et al have plundered this magnificent yet misunderstood device. The knight who rescued the whole...

Don't see Hawaii on this list. We're an 'appy lot, us. :rave:

Shirley, time to pull the t-rigger Tony?

Pretty boy 1st year student, pink cord trous and Bry Nylon shirt (not (Alastair's). Oh, and green velvet hipsters. Embarrasing. Cute gilfriend though.

Howard Jones in New York, circa 1984 on his first US trip. He was doing a meet and greet at a club one afternoon and only about 12 people showed up (no one was to blame). No one knew who he was yet in the US. We had a nice chat about High Wycombe among other things as I recall (e.g. what is...

Well, just read some of this thread and that's 10 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Lenny, you're ok mate. Some of you have waaay too much time on your hands and not enough to do. But hey, while we're on the subject, how many angels Can you fit on the head of a pin? FFS

AND, Mr. Tackle, I'll have you know Alice lives here on Maui (as does Mick Fleetwood, Willie Nelson, Steven Tyler et many al.). The Alice attended to Mrs. Ken's (former) Baptist church, apparently a lovely guy. Oh, and just recently, on another note, Jeff Bezos. Willie Nelson and son Lukas...

Heathens. Good toons from their own eras. Who are we to judge? Oh, yeah, I forgot. We are the Culchur judge, jury and executioners :facepalm: To each his and her (oh, and their) own. :cool:

Greetings and aloha from the humble grass hut. I sense a resurrected Clique forming. This notwithstanding, a revisit with Hart's Shirt, Bry Nylon, HWT (a literal Life Saver), and Barntit Seagull would be spiffing, and the erstwhile Man of Harveys. The Real Clique. Superb gents all. So many...

Ben Boaity McBoaityface Get in! Need highlight reel, WAG pix, the whole 9 yards.

Which one? There were two. Apparently.

Most amusing clip sent by my fellow expat and diehard Toon-supporting mate and Best Man (a judge in LA). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSzRc-UWwJU :lol:

I have learnt that: Fish puns NEVER get old, despite what salmon may say. That the CLIQUE remains the Illuminati of NSC. Long live the CLIQUE. That HWT saved the day while visiting from the tropics and I experienced a health crisis. And is a true gent. That despite their foibles, many former...

Acid drop Spangles and throop'ny bits.

My love of cricket was instilled from my Mum who was born and raised in Taunton. She retired back to Weston-super-Mud and was a season ticket holder for years. She went to watch her heroes as a schoolgirl (unusual back then in the 30s) -- Arthur Wellard, Frank Lee, Donald Bradman, Jack Hobbs...

Too late to vote but Cardiff for me. I flew in from the mid-Pacific for this one to join fellow NSC Sponsors Harts Shirt, Man O'Harveys, Barnet, Simster, Stumpy Tim, Lush, Mr. Putdown, Dave, Rool, Wozza, Gary and other estemmed Clique and non-Clique members as we awarded MOM to a brilliant Andy...

I barely got through the question about whether I lived within 5 miles of the stadium. After fiddling with my sextant, Omsung Phine and telescope, I finally figured it out. Cheers Oliver.

Slough. First ever game was at the old Dolphin Stadium vs. Hitchin Town in the 60s, Athenian League. First "real" league game was QPR, Div 3. My first serious g/f's family moved to Sussex (Kingston/Lewes) so needless to say my uni all-conquering Subbutro team (take that, Walsall, Halifax and...

Mr. Piggle, for kindergarten jokes, that is absolute qualla .:thumbsup:
