Could be worse. Last time I saw Emmerdale it was about a farm.

Got me trying to remember the name of the British soap about the hotel in the Midlands I think.
Benny... rings a bell and I'm trying to recall the name without using Google.

Yes, many thanks. I'll sleep well now, less tossing and turning.
Thanks again.

Fucking Tuesday.

Well said

 

[KeenVoyeur]

If only

You should have called me ... I mean, a 6 hour round trip for a 10 minute quickie is a day well spent (OK, next time I'll get a hotel room)

 

[Wand3rlust]

Ok. Work break till half four .

I need a holiday.

Crossroads?

Interesting fact about Crossroads. They tried to revive it in 2001, it lasted 2 years. The motel was now a hotel, and it had a new cast.

The program was awful. The last episode, they made it look like it was all a daydream of one of the characters, and they worked in a shop as a till operator.

They do.

Yes, they still do Curly Wurlys. Need a small bank loan.

Tesco 4 pack, £1.25. (They're smaller than they used to be)

I've recently found a love for the Starbar. They are £2.50 for 4.

Blimey! Thanks for the confirmation.

Ok, what about Selection Boxes where you used the plastic inner tray to grow carrot tops in January (or is that just too obscure and really giving my age away)?

I did see small selection “packs” from early September ffs

Isn’t everything smaller these days (apart from my waist, but maybe that’s down to Freddo and CurlyWurly)

Haven’t had a StarBar for decades !

 

[PotNoodle79]

Shrinkflation. It's a bitch.

If you remember the TV show Life on mars. They had a scene where one was eating a curly wurly. They used a real 70s packet and the current chocolate only filled it 3/4. They could fit 3 in the pack.

Oh god dont talk waist. My waist is now longer in inches than my mother is tall.

Diet and gym needed.

[TiedbyChris]

I loved Life on Mars - watched the entire series again during the mad global episode we had a few years ago. Not sure I recall that level of detail though, quite impressive

 

[Wand3rlust]

Morning.

 

[TiedbyChris]

Morning Wand3rlust and rest of UK

I’m staying away for a few days and it’s amazing how easily I can sleep in! You may not want to hear that of course ….

 

[Wand3rlust]

Nice - away anywhere fun??

To be fair, I did go back to bed.

Up and getting ready for work now though

Many thanks for that, I will check YouTube to try to find an episode.
I'm also looking for an episode of the Latchkey children. Luckily I wasn't one, but we used a stick through the letterbox to open the front door by pushing the sneck up.
Thanks again.
