Good for you TT. Only wish I could do the same. Exeter would be great for me. I did 2 years at Exeter Airport in the 80s.

Why have a GE when Labour already hold far more seats than the Tories do??

Starmer is a strange guy. Obviously good at his real job but useless as PM. If Labour want to stand any chance in the next election they have to replace him as Party Leader NOW.

Great news DSoTL. We are all behind you and hoping for a great wedding day for your son.

Will they have to wear 'Turbans' when playing??

I bought a Breitling in Bedford over 20+ years ago. Had a problem with it, took it back, but it was never resolved. I told them not to bother. I then bought a Seiko Solar for a lower price. Best watch ever, keeps perfect time. Has 'Day & Date' on it. Perfect for me.

Can't remember the name but, didn't that Jewellers on the corner of Church St & Bank Hey St sell Rolex? I going back a few years now.

They are finally doing something to stop the illegal immigrants crossing the Channel. They have punctured some of the rafts which are being used to cross The Channel. About bloody time too.

Some good advice about 'paying'. It was MrsDPs decision to pay. How could I argue with such a wonderful wife?

St. Johns on Church St, Blackpool GS ( which I left after the 1st year). Thought I was going to Tech College but finished up at Palatine. Didn't matter as my 3 best friends went there. Left at 15 to get a job as a Telegram Boy. My Dad was a Postman, as was an uncle, and a cousin worked in PO...

Thank you all so much. I really appreciate the wishes and will think of my friends on AVFTT on the day. I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful wife (2nd marriage for both of us), and now been married for 53 years. Thanks once again to ALL the fantastic BFC fans, those I've met and all you other...

I thought 'Drop 'em big boy' would be quite apt here.

I think he should revert to his real name. FART.

21st July. MrsDP has invited all the family to a Restaurant for a family meal. There will be 13/14, and guess who's paying? Got it in one, ME. Can I plead 'Old Age'??

Bring back 'National Service'. Did mine in 1953/5. Teaches you discipline and how to act in many varying circumstances. I was worried when 'Called Up', not knowing what to expect even though my Bro was already a 'Regular' in the Navy. However, a lot of todays youth wouldn't be able to face it.
