    Yes, it's not been the same since they got all PC and introduced engines like Daisy and Emily.

      PAYG, when in actual fact you need to top up £10/month, so it's effectively subscription.

            I think the Deltic prototype must be the coolest looking loco in history, but the Mallard and the TGV get close.

            Nope, can't look at that without the theme song to a kid's programme running through my head...

                MMmmm!! If you avoid the mental image these bars are delicious. Chocalte in Sweden is generally very good and undiscovered - get down to your local IKEA and find out what you are missing!!

                  Now I have satellite again, I noticed there are adverts for 'Retardex' on TV. I wonder if the company doesn't quite get that 'Retard' lost it's original meaning in the language quite some time ago, and is a derogatory term to this internet generation?
                  Oh, I’m sorry….I seem to be lost. I was looking for the sane side of town. I’d ask you for directions, but I have a feeling you’ve never been there and I’d be wasting my time.

                    I googled for Swedish girls eating plopp, spunk and ****** and I came up with this (SFW):

                    I can't find any photos of German girls eating dichmilch though.
                    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
