    And I did.

    That, and doing the happy, bouncing, dance of joy! :)
    Ah. didn't do this.

    I are currently halfway through cutting a 32mm socket into a headrace
    speciality socket.

    That Clarke Dremel-o-like is a luvvly bit of kit, and the 1m extension
    is a brilliant idea.

    Top value for £30.

  8. err no as that does Kings Cross - Streatham Hill but in't olden days
    used to be Kings Cross to South Kensington via half of south london
    including Clapham.
    that does Shoreditch to Clapham Junction now but in times long ago ran
    from as far as Chingford to Clapham Junction and I am sure even further
    than that.

    and for that ultimate saddo experience you can look at the history of
    loads of London Bus Routes on
    http://www.busroutesinlondon.co.uk/index.htm

  11. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember Paul Corfield
    I got my kicks on Route 94.

    That's abundantly clear.
    I have no intention of ever getting hot and sweaty around you.
    This direction will also fail dismally Mr C. And get us both into
    trouble with Mr Pip.
    So do I. I found the London bus routes soothing. It's almost like a
    bus version of mornington crescent.

    I love him, but he's an absolute bugger for pithy quotes, making, as he
    does, a single sentence meander across three or four verses.

    I was really impressed with his Beowulf. And I'm totally failing to
    come up with a single thing of worth to add to that. I may as well
    have just put AOL.

    What the **** am I reading news for?
