Classics both of those.

As were most; if not all; of the others.

Not seen that series in years, some of the stories were genius.

I expect you were especially moved by "The Testing of Eric Olthwaite" or the tale of "Barnstoneworth" being a Tyke?

Comedy Gold!!!!

Cardiff is miles away Sal!!

Try The Malverns, or Malvern itself. And Ledbury is a lovely little place. Or Evesham.

It's a lovely part of the country, even across the border into Wales (Monmouth way) is great.

Why spoil it by commuting to Cardiff??

Correct!

It is indeed great for kayakking; the pub's better though. The Saracen iirc.

Indeed! Buy that man a Bulmer's Special!

[cojak]

I've never met anyone or known anyone who lives in Hereford.

And for that matter, where the **** is Rutland!

And Huntingdonshire?

Never 'eard of it mate!

Rutland? Other side of the country.

As for Huntingdonshire, not a clue...

Symonds Yat, I remember that a great place to go kayaking except the waters bloody freezing of course

I agree, the roads are not really up to a daily commute. Looking between Hereford and Monmouth/Symonds Yat area would be worth looking at as they are very nice areas a lot closer to Hereford than Cardiff. Forget Newport, BTW, not as far as Cardiff but really is the pits.

I wouldn't try commuting from Cardiff to Hereford, the roads are awful.

You could go by train though.

Except that's awful too.

Correct. The Rutles originated on Rutland Weekend Television, which was the programme several of the Pythons did after the Flying Circus.

I know the drummer from The Rutles - really nice chap

Rutland must be where The Rutles came from

Well it's where Ruddles County came from. Or at least Oakham the County town of Rutland is.
