I'm so glad I'm no where near Leyland.
Seeing those legs might frighten me to death  :D

Isn't it strange how Forum members who have never met and live miles apart have identical thoughts. :D

I wonder how widespread this phenomena is? :hmmm:

Infamy. Infamy. They've all got it in for me :'(

I love this heat, I spend the whole time starkers! Have to put shorts on when I go out though as it might frighten the neighbors else!

I used to be indecisive - now I'm not - I don't think.

Too much information - nearly spilt my beer.
You wouldn't like me if I spilt my beer...

Size matters - especially if you don't have a lot of space - and N gauge is the answer!

I am not trying to take the mickey at all, and will bow out of this discussion now, but I still find it sort of strange that you find 28 degrees hot.
Just reaching that time of year here when 28 degrees is starting to feel comparatively cool  :thumbsup: Fortunately it rarely goes above 38 or so in the height of summer.

If it's any consolation it has been known to snow.

Don't try and over analyse it, chaps. I just remember an old cartoon of two explorers in the jungle surrounded by natives they couldn't see and one said "It's too quiet, Fanshawe, too quiet"
Blimey - people don't say 'Gad' any more either, do they? :no:

I think its a quote from the Goons. "By gad it's hot Farquhar . Reminds me of Poona in 44."

Farquhar is one of those names that pronounces Fanshaw.
The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.

I say Carruthers, isn't that Featherstone Hough, what what? It won't do you know, it just won't do.

Reminds me of my very first job. I had to call a woman by the name of Carrot. I was firmly rebuked by her when she answered and I innocently said " Can I speak to Mrs Carrot?"
"The name is Caro my dear Caro.".
I had to put the phone down for laughing.
I'll get round to fixing it drekkly me 'ansome.

You could be right, Malc, as my memory is not what it used to be.

Regarding the commotion over Fanshawe, I reckon that you guys have fans on the brain.

In the heat, I am a fan of fans too.

For those of you to the west of me, I just thought I would let you know that we have just had a short sharp shower here and it is only 20 degrees - relief is on its way.  :thumbsup:

Shame, the weather tends to go from west to east in the northern hemisphere so it looks as if we are sending you even hotter!
