  2. That is my word of the day! I'm going to try and get that into as many conversations as I can :)

  3. ^ not far away from there we have Fetch'am and Bookh'am and my personal favourite Effingham
     
  4. Heading down towards Chichester, you go through a village called Cocking Hill, which to me sounds like a James May expletive.

    For anyone who loves place names, and thinks that many of them are just wasted on road signs, I recommend the Meaning of Liff and sequels (Deeper Meaning of Liff and Afterliff: funniest books in the universe, ever, IMHO) The Books - Liff

  5. Not far from Cocking is the village of Fulking...
     
  6. Ok just checked there is a motorcycle theme so that's good, other wise the Ducati forum will think we will be doing village fetes next for tea and scones
     
  7. so it's ok to post this thread now you've vetted it then?... :rolleyes:
     
  8. Yes it has my seal of approval you just got back?
     
  9. yes 'moderator' Martin, just got in and i'm bushed after a day spent fending the papparazzi off Rob.. we got through eight ball-point pens and the poor soul was temporarily blinded at one point what with all the constant flash photography going on not to mention the blisters on his writing hand.
     
  10. Moderator pah I'm just an active member anyone doing Brooklands tomorrow ?

  13. Blimey, I used to hang around Merrist Wood when I was a kid. We'd break into the canteen at night, nick all their hot chocolate and play table football all night, then fish for pike during the day til we got turfed out. Rock 'n roll!
     

  14. it would make sense if you started your own thread for that one mate..
