Question What is making you happy today?

That'll please Rob Noxious.

I'm not a fan of them - they're like the pub equivalent of modern football stadia - but I am a bit of a pub snob.

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Just thinking how brilliantly Rochford punches above its weight for a small place with pubs that its drinkers manage to keep going, mostly.

Not really accurate imo these days; several have gone and those that are left are, at best, average.

Light years are a measure of distance, not time.

Ditto parsec which makes a mockery of Han Solo's Kessel run speech.

I know, I was being sUrReAl. But whether tine or distance, makes no odds.

Time stands still for no-one, & many of the traditional Rochford family's 'hardcase's ' are no longer alive or at an age where they smell of TCP instead of beer!.

Is big John Hall (Coote) still going, last I heard of him was 10 + years ago and he was going blind. Real hard man, gypsy bare knuckle fighter.

Just seen on the packet they’re claiming it is medium strength chilli.

No idea, also heard years ago he was going blind. Remember him going berserk in The Woodcutters back in the 70's.
He also went to Tots one night, & took on all the bouncers!.
