  That, or scorched earth. Been nice knowing yaz

  Yeah, this FWIW

• Star Wars Appreciation **Spoilers Ahead**

  A series with STAR WARS in its title needs to pass muster with anyone who remembers that you could replace Luke’s (and Obi Wan’s) lightsabers with the green stem off a poppy for a potentially better system.

  It’s really just pirates of the Caribbean crossed with Goonies which is OK I suppose but it’s not proper Star Wars.

  If Johnny Depp turned up pissed in Skeleton Crew he’d look like a normal bloke amongst the relentless stereotypical “pirate” bollocks.
  I think this is the first time I’ve watched a Star Wars thing and couldn’t give a toss if I saw the rest of it or not.
  Sorry Disney, do better.

  Gloucester/Warwickshire always seems nicer than Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire.
  I think a lot of it depends on your dominant commuter city. Where I am in Bedfordshire isn’t far enough away from London to be that nice, but it’s also not close enough to benefit from decent amenities and people who aren’t carrot-crunching racist/sexist morons.

  When he rode off, slowly into the rain and gloom we did wonder “will he be OK?” But then I reminded us that he’d cycled across continents and on the moon and under the sea. A bit of Bedfordshire traffic isn’t going to be a problem.

  “Le Poisson” did indeed visit, swallowing up the kilometres (and the cakes) that lesser riders would never accomplish.
  Good on you mate!

  I know exactly where the tiles are. In my garage where they’ve been for two years as I still haven’t got round to doing my bathroom. DIY thread>>>>>
