    [Misc] Merry Christmas

    Funerals seem to come together, my Uncle is 85 and probably has Parkinsons, my mother is 90 and has got Dementia. Have a feeling we will be travelling to Cheshire, maybe twice, at some point in 2024.

    It is Raquel Welch of course and one of the most bizarre photos you can find of her are with Fred Trueman (!) at their respective childrens wedding. I believe he got some tap about it on TMS... :lolol:

    [Albion] What would you do without the albion?

    Cant see any circumstances where there would be no BHA, other than Tony Bloom selling up. Which won't happen. Not fussed about any other football team and my summers cricket has been ruined by the ECB so I would probably sink into a deep depression.

    [TV] Escape to Victory

    I suggest you watch Rush basically James Hunt vs. Niki Lauda. The only thing in the film 'contrived' is that they hated one another whereas they actually got on OK. Racing scenes are superb.

    [Misc] Happy Shortest Day

    Seeing as I am no longer working and hence getting up and then getting home in the dark, I'm not so fussed about winter sun up & sun down times. :blush: Sorry if that is a bit selfish of me.

    [Drinking] Last Fridat before Christmas drinks thread

    Love oysters, Mrs Jakarta hates them. Had a Client based down at Whitstable Harbour, one of my favourite Site Visits, fresh out of the sea that morning, professionally shucked, with lemon and a touch of Tabasco.
