Sun, England, those two words dont go together in one sentence.:face:

Dunno watcha mean mate. There's a big (ish) ball of yellow in the sky over Northumberland as I type. Not sure what it is though as not seen around these parts too often.
We've got proper green green grass and stuff of course 'cos we get a dump of wet stuff from the sky pretty regularly :winking: and we're saved the horrible sight of hundreds of old guys in shorts showing off their wrinkly old pins 24/7.:devil:

One of Royston Vasey's jokes

"Tramp goes into a DIY shop and asks the young assistant for a bottle of meths. The young chap shuffles about a bit uncomfortably and then says "im sorry sir but i cant sell you a bottle of methylated spirits" Why not asks the tramp...well sir youre a .......vagrant and we all know what tramps do with bottles of meths....
Tramp says "actually young man, its not for drinking...im currently restoring an antique motorcycle and i need the meths to clean some rusty parts"
The young lad is still suspicious and then says ok if you can tell me anything about vintage motorbikes then i might consider selling you the meths. The tramp then goes into great detail about vintage bikes and what bit goes where until the assistant says "ok sir im sorry i ever doubted you, you clearly know your stuff its just that we get so many tramps in here...He reaches behind the counter and produces a bottle of meths...that'll be ?1.40 please sir.
Tramp grasps the bottle and says....got a cold one? "

Whatever turns you on Brian my mate who makes the best of boxes uses it to lift the least bit of grain before finishing then 20 odd coats of french polish. Same with his small vases incredible depth of finish.
