Seat68 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I worked with a Boylan. He was an utter word removed. Its right that all Boylans are banned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amusing how many people we pick up at the end of the first night of a weekender.

sidcow Posted March 11, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2021 So this awful Sarah Everard murder. They seemed to pick up on this policeman very quickly. He's also been done for indecent exposure. There is some additional story going on there I think. But now they've found human remains but said it's going to be very time consuming to identify them. Mrs Sidcow was saying that there were permanent looking portacabins on site earlier when she saw the news. And he's been to hospital today with some kind of head wounds. Anyway I wonder if a much bigger story is going to emerge out of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted March 13, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted March 13, 2021 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-56011789 Quote Cartoon SuperTed set for new animation series Quote He was the teddy bear with magic powers who was a cartoon favourite among royal princes and a generation of children - and now SuperTed is being brought back to life once again. More than 35 years since his last show, his creators are set to sprinkle magic dust over SuperTed again and recreate him for a new audience. Work on new episodes is expected to start later this year. It is hoped SuperTed will be back on TV screens by 2023. His return will be the latest cartoon comeback. Fireman Sam, Thomas The Tank Engine, the Care Bears, My Little Pony, Scooby Doo, Postman Pat and the Clangers have all been reinvented for 21st Century children. SuperTed - whose most famous fans were the dukes of Cambridge and Sussex - was created by a stepfather trying to help a four-year-old sleep, who was inadvertently helped by the Beatles. His production firm also wants Hollywood's Welsh acting stars like Michael Sheen, Rhys Ifans and Ioan Gruffudd to help narrate the revamped show and voice characters like sidekick Spotty and baddie Texas Pete. The teddy bear - powered by Spotty's cosmic dust and Mother Nature's special powers - was beamed to 128 different countries and dubbed into 32 different languages before the last episode in 1986. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said the same thing - absolutely loved the place and the people (although they were shocked by the price of... well pretty much everything). I don't think I could stand the dark/light seasons if I lived there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had cheap Icelandair flights from Birmingham and then Airb&b all around with a hire car. It wasn't that expensive truth be told. Some of the Airb&b places we stopped at were absolutely stunning and were fairly cheap. The expense comes with eating out etc but even then we found some pretty nice places that didn't break the bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
