Turvey Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I do like our 18 year old son starting his first job this week, night shift shelf filling at Tesco. I also like the fact that already he's coming home with freebies! 😋 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimST2 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Just had PS4s fitted in place of the original 2016 rear Potenzas that had gone hard (so I now have a full set). How much quieter is the car now!? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve just done the same except they were 5-6 year old Goodyears, first thing I noticed was they were quieter, ride was a little better too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen most episodes multiple times now lol. Though I only saw the final one last week, not sure how I'd missed that before. Also seen all episodes of Malcolm in the Middle since the pandemic started. Odd thing is, I'm not really a fan of American sitcoms in general...2 and a half men & Brooklyn nine nine just don't work for me. Those are all channel 4 also, I'm after something on iPlayer without ad breaks ideally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 6 x series (ended now) but just a delicious bit of writing, and genuine funny with a very moral background. Not on BBC though so that may be a factor. (about 80 x 25 minute episodes in total) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(about 80 x 25 minute episodes in total) Ah, I had heard of that but wondered why I'd never seen it on the TV guide...looks like it's a Netflix programme. Wanted to watch 'The Dig' recently but that's also Netflix. I assume these things will eventually move to free services (Channel 4 seem to buy everything they can!). Just seen all series of 'Two Pints' is on iPlayer, haven't seen those for years so might give them a go as another 'easy watch' comedy. Most of the comedies on there are repeated on TV regularly (Not Going Out, Vicar of Dibley, Royle Family, etc) so don't want to shoot myself in the foot for evening watching! On that note...Fawlty Towers was shown again recently...and somehow they still got away with the 'flowery twats' sign on one of the episodes on prime time BBC One!

The most amazing thing about that series, is that there were only ever 12 episodes! Punched way above it's weight, and 40 years later, still funny! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that's progress though... I knew there weren't many but didn't realise it was only 12!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 How many remember this.....Bottom. This particular episode called Terror, is the funniest thing start to finish I have ever seen in my life, I remember being on the floor crying with laughter so much, I felt it did me damage. I remember my stomach was hurting so much I was hoping something funny wasn't going to appear too soon. It was like they loaded enough material for 3 shows into just one My humour to a tee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Sometimes it's quite amusing when you find out a saying or phrase can mean 2 different things. My partner said to the chief exec that she had been round some of the staff and was fluffing up ( as in making the people feel better about them selves) chief exec was shocked as he knew that phrase as meaning something else completely different. Then her daughter said she was off round to friends house so they could Netflix and chill. My partner nearly chocked on her coffee she was drinking. Daughter didn't realise that phrase could mean something else!! 😂😂😂😂😂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turvey Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I do like having our first boil of homegrown tatties for quite a few years! Planted a couple in a big tub late last year but they didn't do anything and I forgot about them. Earlier this year they started showing some signs of life so I left them to do their thing. Dug one of the plants tonight. Not the biggest crop but it was enough for me and Mrs Turvey and very nice they were too 😋 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
