Gotta love when a push notification comes in saying that you have money in your paypal. Mmmm!

Sure do, a smile on your face converts into one on mine about 10 mins later…....
Bastard! So true… Trying to get that 526 already.

I wish. Need a few more surprise push notifications for that to happen. It will happen soon though, no doubt! And it is already there under [Waiting] as it isn't even a question that I will own it.

shout out to disNdat, let's see what gear you got & where you are from.

Ahhh… final day of work before Easter and then a long stay in my hometown of Sheffield to look forward to. Need a break from London and cannot wait to hike in the Peak District with my brother, drink bitter and mild and enjoy the quiet and clean air.
Pics to follow as I want to share the goodness with you all!

I'm just down the M1 from Sheffield, in Mansfield. The infamous engagement party of scum was in Sheffield, but it is mostly a nice city.

Yes Doug, it's the Steel City. I was quite impressed when you referenced the Vulcan on the top of our town hall, I must say. The city is built on steep hills with very fast, narrow rivers between them and these were perfect for the burgeoning knive trade in the 18th-19th century, as the waterwheels powered grindstones (made with grit stone from the nearby Peak District).
Last time I was back there, my fiancée and I bought a David Mellor kitchen knife for her mother that looked incredible. Given that my fiancée is from Hong Kong, giving knives as presents is not usually a good thing at all (as I'm sure you know) but the quality was so good, it passed.

And Mega, my mum's side is from Farnsfield near Southwell so I've been through Mansfield many a time. Glad the engagement party didn't taint your impression of Sheff too much.

I'm glad that you had the good grace not to give your opinion of Mansfield, although I am aware it is an awful place, ha ha.
G, the night will live long in my memory, as I imagine survivors of other great tragedys relive their personal horrors.

I have a friend who was second in command on HMS Glamorgan in the Falklands war. She took an Exocet and 13 men died. He has never been able to talk about it and he is one of the most upbeat and funny men I know…...Funny how shit like this works.
I suspect though. I'd have rather been on Glamorgan in 13th June 1982, than at The infamous engagement party of scum

I would gladly have paid good money to see your reaction to the contents of that room, on that night G. Mine was a mixture of revulsion, bewilderment, and a macabre interest in the habits of the "people".
Oddly, the family of the groom to be (poor bastard), are really good friends of ours and really nice people. They were absolutely mortified upon meeting their prospective in-laws and associated hangers on. It made Shameless look like To The Manor Born.
…i´ve tried to get those images out of my head, but they won´t do me that favour!
