Dads Army.

As far as i’m concerned Dads Army is one of the best-ever comedy programmes, and it’s on again tonight at 7pm. Far better than it’s contemporary; It ain’t half hot mum. Others may think otherwise, but Dads Army is repeated again and again…

I thought that Les Dawson was funny at times, whereas Tommy Cooper only had to walk onto the stage, say nothing, and people would start laughing. Russ Abbot was very funny in his own right. 😀

Enigma Tavern.

Hi Lincoln. 7 Called at the Tavern today later in the morning but sadly still no sign of life, couldn’t really see much through the windows. Still, EGTC told you of their web site, didn’t know about that, not that it seems to show anything of Enigma interest. Or have I missed something? One of these days I will get inside there…..:rolleyes:

Enigma Tavern.

Hi Lincoln .7 Sorry to say that I’ve never been in the Tavern as I’m always there early morning,though strangely this thursday I will get a chance to look around. I’ll let you know later. Cheers Bookman 🙂

Public House and village sign.

And then there are the “buried Lancaster fuselages” in the UK, don’t forget!

Another flight of fancy, but with the Lancaster hunter telling the world that his metal detectors had located them, as I recall. For reasons that were never explained, the fantasist who was allegedly hunting them, knew where they were and had located them had also determined that they were “wrapped in hesian”. Now, why on earth would anyone do that? As laughable as the Spitfires down the mine shaft, really….and I wonder if anyone has ever calculated just how much hesian would be needed to wrap a Lanc fuselage? Say 2m wide strips….now there’s a challenge for somebody to work out. And if they do, then they seriously need to get out more!

No idea how much hessian would be needed, but it would cost a fortune hessian can be very expensive….that I do know !! 😉

Well there’s speeding and there’s speeding isn’t there?? With a clear wide open road, not a soul insight and some crafty copper stood halfway in a bus stop catches you doing 35mph what the hell difference does it make !! As for coppers getting killed in the line of their duty….no-one forced them to join.. Well obviously the two coppers a few hundred yards away couldn’t see what’s going on in the shop. Had they been on FOOT patrol they may well have been around that area. I neither had the time or inclination to do anything about two shoplifters, that’s why we have CAMERA’S in shops. If I had stopped to inform the two coppers no-doubt they would have nicked me for stopping where I could and obstructing them in their duty to nick people for going 5mph too fast.

It’s simple really though isn’t it? Risk breaking the speed limit, however it is set and however it is enforced, and face the consequences.

He was done for interfering with the actions of a Police Officer whilst lawfully carrying out his duty.

What a nice safe easy job, and they can get money from you. Far better than catching real law-breakers where there maybe an element of danger involved. Two young lads in my local off licence were hiding cans of beer in their baggy summer clothes, two hundred yards down the road stood two coppers, the young-un being shown by the elder how to Nick people for going 3mph too fast. And they were just 100yards from a fixed camera.
