"Another nice mess you got me into, Stanley"!

For those not old enough to remember Laurel and Hardy, Bozo would obviously be favourite to play Oliver Hardy in any future film re-makes!

Might be the size of Olly, but more of a Stan Laurel really. Oliver Hardy played the victim.
 
Totectors but no hard hat... silly man. I hope nobody drops a brick. (Bozo has dropped plenty already)
But I guess he is inside some brickies’ training college.
 
Apparently this is the last picture of Stan and Ollie taken together - genius, still laugh my head off at their antics.

PS to say now we know what Martin Clunes is going to look like in a few years time!

If you drive from little langdale on the hard knott pass road, you will pass the 'three shire's stone' by the roadside, which marked the point where Cumberland, Westmorland and Lancashire met.
 
And Coniston Old Man was in Lancashire once upon a time I believe.

That, Ulverstone and Barrow still are (sort of).

The government back in 2013 deemed that the original ceremonial counties should be recognised (even though administratively they were part of the 1974 reorganisation). If you pop over to Saddleworth, you'll see the communities that are now part of Oldham have road signs that, for example, welcome you to 'Uppermill in the Historic County of Yorkshire'. On Yorkshire Day, the white rose flags come out in numbers, despite them being the wrong side of the Pennines. I'm not sure if in Coniston and the Furness Peninsula people are as proud of their Lancashire heritage.
