And THIS THING (pic not brill) is an electric car. They're actually quite popular, but A BLOODY PAIN! ... as they take forever to get goin ...lol.

Maybe you don't pay road tax, maybe you don't pay the congestion charge, maybe you don't buy petrol, maybe you'll get there!

I just wonder whether they'd take off in Oz with their V8 loving mentality! ...lol

Red face Re: NEVER thought I'd say it, but I'm goin home!

Can you post some pics of you munching...

A chicken kebab.

Battered sausage, chips, peas and gravy.

A cheese and onion pastie.

Peeking duck with pancakes.

A bacon and sausage sarnie.

Not all at the same time.

Then go and have your cholesterol checked.

I doubt you'd find a chippie in London which sold peas and gravy H.

I'm hoping to find the time to do either a Ally Pally or Hampstead Heath shot over London for ole mate Mr Eagle (sure it was him who asked ?!?) but as I say I'm not getting on the road till 4pm and it's as good as dark by then ...

WILL try tho! ...

Anything?

oh and ...

Altho I like chicken, while I'm here I've opted for good ole greezy donner ...

saus, chips and gravy I'm not sure, saus and chips yeah! ... but was only sayin to Ashley just now I aint had no traditional 'fish and chips' yet. Come to think of it I dunno what I HAVE been eating! ...

C&O pastie, well had a beef pie and that was it ... NOTHING on a good Aussie pie and I refuse to eat another!

Peeping duck and whatever else ... not gonna happen as I only eat this type of food when out with mates, sozzled, and .... oh another story! ...lol

Bacon and Saus ... well 'egg' and bacon in french bread is certainly feasible, had one tonight from the lil guy under Waterloo Station ...

Bloody lovely it was, along with obligatory (for us) HP sauce ...

The Xmas Tree in Trafalgar Square would be nice. Kilburn High Road (don't ask), and anything in Watford and surroundings if you get there. So far I've loved them all. I am please that all the pic's show London as a clean city and not the dive some people (who don't know it well) seem to think it is. Tooley Street and Knightsbridge bring back afew memories too, shan't say why though.

Anything south of Watford it just isn't the done thing.
