Re: Removal men
I saw a "greasy spoon" in an indoor market in Doncaster a few years. If you ate everything on the menu within 90(?) minutes, you had it for free.

Guffaw - or moths - anyhow what's in my bag is for me to know and you to ponder about - anyway I told you, proper weapons not bags - although a few washers might stop David in his tracks .....

Re: Removal men
Now look here Northern folk. We don't want to start the War of the Roses II, which is what this thread seems to be degenerating into.
We are digressing seriously from the original post, in fact I'm surprised the Moderators haven't started slapping wrists.
Surely the proper purpose of this thread is to slag off the Bat? Now lets get back to it. Thank you.

Shame about that, Mo. There's you all covered in wode and no battle to go to. It may be a bit windy and cold for David.
