Which was "wrong"? Blackadder or the Prince Regent, wearing a bow.

Neither.

Time to put the kettle on, methinks.

I'm currently parked in a retail park.
I hate retail parks..
I especially hate retail parks on a Sunday!

I went to a retail park (Tolgate West in Colchester) by bike today. There were NO bike stands at all to lock the bike to, the next option of lamp posts were too thick and surrounded by bushes and all the drain pipes were of thin plastic so no use. Eventually I found a trolley corall by the B&M with metal tubing similar to a Sheffield stand which was the only useable thing in the area.

Still managed to leave the key in the lock when I went in to the shop 'though...

Dark blue Aston Martin GT softshell when dry & green Aston Martin waterproof coat. Can't be doing with the hi-viz yellow they do the t-shirts in currently.

Also know as trainee orange.

The brand new brightness of the hi-viz used to be the way of spotting the new recruits on Felixstowe Dock until they moved to agency staff who generally had their own (old) stuff.

I was thinking of the bods in orange romper suits...

But there, the same applies to the brightness of their kit. You can tell a regular by the fact that their probans are usually a fetching shade of peach...

Morning.
Have you ever wondered about the question whether a half filled glass is either half full or half empty?

Well ! I think Schrodie came up with a defining answer! According to him a half filled bowl of food is empty!
