It's a big seller a couple of days a year. In fact I have a photo somewhere of BarryDidIt with his big baldy heed sunburned to f**k when he crawled a 10K race here a few years ago. Think he managed to beat the charity clown (who's about 70 and carries a bucket of coins), but that was about it. He blamed the heat.....Originally posted by Mordac View PostWell there would be no point in selling sun creamWhen freedom comes along, don't PISH in the water supply.....Comment

Is the Anchor Tavern still going?
I used to know the owner, although I suspect he would be on his 5th liver by now.Comment
