I’ve gone back to the old ways, I rarely eat out anymore, I make my own dinners at home, stick em in the fridge and eat decent food all week. I make curries from scratch and throw a ton of veggies in them before blending it down into a gravy, so nice and healthy and I get a colonic irrigation for free I also do Shepherd’s Pies, stews, that sort of thing, no need to do Camion Stew mit Peaches anymore
As you say Chazzer, obesity is an epidemic here and it is so easy to succumb to it, I’ve even gone as far as buying my own animals to slaughter, so I can eat meat that isn’t full of growth hormones, got a cow hanging in the butcher at the moment and the lamb is getting a cap in its ■■■ at the weekend

Heres a picture I’ve been asked post. It shows three South Wales based drivers on a middle east trip many years ago. We know who they are but do any of you old hands recognise them?

Brought back good memories this, me on the left, Billy Thomas in the middle and Ray Saltiel, I think it was taken at Haswah 1981 ish n that wasn’t tea in the mugs ! Me and Ray were subbing for Hicks at the time, had some good times with Billy
Hi Fred
How were your two weeks Holiday in Kapicule?
I have been put off making things up since the last tax return…but glad to read your posts.
I’ve noticed fewer people logging in to this thread these days. I can’t believe all the stories have been told there must be a few more pistons and puncture adventures out there!

There must be someone out there who has been to Timbukthree surely or who spent three hours on one wave in a force 10 on the Serpentine

Anyone remember the old notice board in the Pudding Shop in Sultanahmet!
Went there last year and they still have a photograph of the old Notice Board Pinned up and people are pinning new messages on it. I saw a notice in 1981/2 of someone needing a second person to ride a Tandem to Tehran…A bit of light hearted humour or just a genuine nutcase looking for a pal…
Trying to dig out some photo’s from Photobucket at the moment can only seem to put one on at a time.

Anyone have any tips on editing photo’s all the photos I have on Photobucket have the right hand side of the picture clipped when I put them on here!

Just been through your photobucket Mick, great pictures.
You’re lucky to get on Photobucket,try as I may,can’t get into my gallery no way.
There are over 600 pics of mine on there that I can’t now access.
I’ve just downloaded their latest gimmick called Auto backup,which has done precicely FA!
Still can’t upload,download or view my gallery.
Access was getting difficult some weeks ago,but now it’s ■■■■■■■ impossible.
I also do Shepherd’s Pies, stews, that sort of thing, no need to do Camion Stew mit Peaches anymore
