Glad i am not the only one who thinks that about Bloody Keith Lemon !

hellooo there all


FFS don't some people have better ways of occupying their time? I'm glad I missed it.
Are the posts for or anti Clarkson? I watched a couple of episodes of Top Gear and just couldn't see the point of them, sorry.
According to the good old DM, Clarkson reported himself to management. Also it was just a bit of pushing, not punching. I think BBC should think again about cancelling the remaining show, and this does all seem to be a very personal vendetta. I feel very sorry for the other 2 clowns who present Top Gear.
I think his behaviour in spending 2 hours in a pub while staff at the hotel were waiting to serve dinner was inconsiderate. Maybe he didn't realise this. "rolls eyes"





Do you (or Hicky) live near a cemetery Barra? We have a few in our local churchyard, which, frankly, does smell rather iffy in summer... In autumn we get lots of fungi cropping up from coffins... Just thought I would share that with you!


I thought it also applied to crows
I HATE magpies..

Maybe the previous incumbent used to feed them carrion daily!

Good old Dermy!

I like Dermot, even if he does have this awful habit of dropping his voice when he gets excited and at the end of each sentence..

Not long now, eh Hicky?! Holding thumbs etc..

Thanks for the warning Honey!

It's that revolting bandage he wears on his right wrist that I find offensive. Presumably it is due to repetitive strain injury.

totes agree.

I was very sad to hear of Sir Terry Pratchett's death. I love his Disc World books.

Not close Moots about a mile away Thanks for that bit about the fungi in the coffins..... I just happen to be eating my lunch ! I've never heard that saying for anything but Magpies

Yes very sad though a happy release given what he was suffering from

Good morning you lot.



Hope everyone has a good weekend. The sun is already out and about around here.

Good Morning Everyone.:+)))))))))))))))

Temperature in single figures today, wind also, no rain predicted but only 3 hrs of Sun.


Good Morning Eddy.:+)))))))))))))))))))

The sun hasn't emerged yet, expected later.

Morning everyone.

I dont know if its the forum or my laptop but it was saying there was no posts since my last one yesterday.



Fungus? Mushrooms? I have never noticed an abundance of mushrooms in cemeteries. (and if i do i shant be picking them!)

Morning Honey.:+))))))))))))))))))

I've had that before, think the page just doesn't renew, it just replaces it with the existing one.
If you think it should be changed i think you can use Ctrl +F5.

Mushrooms usually grow where Cows graze don't they?

You don't see many of those in graveyards either!

Like sheep they cut the grass and don't charge a lot.

And they leave you plenty of gifts.

I know, they are so generous, a dung beetles dream platter.

There was a blast from the past for BB fans on Comic Relief - Davina and Dermot appeared together, thread about it HERE includes a YT link of the clip. Brings back a load of good memories, is a good clip too, features the end of Dermot's danceathon and revealing how much he raised, watch him get all emotional and Davina give him a hug!

Hello all


the most common is honey fungus, quite pretty, but there have also been some of those big flat top ones, that I wouldn't dare eat either!

aww well DONE Dermy! £643.336 is an impressive sum!!
Maybe next year he can follow a junior hospital doctor round on call from Friday morning to Monday evening, if such a barbaric custom still exists....

Evening Moots.:+)))))))))))))))))

Thats a new one on me, never seen fungus on honey, mind you i eat it too quick.

Hello Hicky

Ha ha, the fungus is honey coloured and grows on rotting wood

as I'm sure you know!

I know of a fungus that grows massive and grows on trees, i imagine it's pretty expensive to buy.
I sometimes buy a pack of mixed fungus and mushrooms and fry it for brekkie, yummy.
I don't ask where it's grown as it doesn't really bother me.

Ahh that was really nice seeing them together.


I don't think so. Didn't they have some sort of EU ruling and thats why we are paying a fortune for temporary doctors etc. I think they call it "bank" work or something dont they?
It annoys me that we give actors oscars and football players OBEs and stuff and ignore the everyday heroes. (not saying the actors and sportsmen aren't great, but so are others)

I never ever ever pick or eat wild mushrooms unless its something that cant possibly be mistaken. It just isnt worth the risk. My brother often picks some for me though.
Do you like puffballs, Hicky?

I used to go mushrooming when i was young almost every Sunday morning, very early, got loads of them, the good big ones were hard to find as they had usually been hidden under some leaves for a while.
They were just normal mushrooms though.

Seen tons of puff balls but don't know if they are edible or not.

Absolutely. You slice them thickly and eat them like steak. They are nice bread-crumbed too.
Dont walk past one again!


Rita Ora is clearly insane.

I used to see the ones that had probably turned ripe as they had the dust inside that went everywhere, i didn't know they were edible anyway but reading about them, it says there are some fake ones that mimic the puffball but are poisonous.

We all see the singers in a different way.

Oh I know, but you would think she would pick some who are a bit different to each other. I liked Mitch.
It was awfully rude of Tom and Will to gawp open mouthed when she put the dullest through though.

I thought all the singers were great, not a lover of feller singing anyway, don't reach the right notes with me so i wouldn't have put that lad through which horrified Will.

But between the girls i would find it too hard to choose.
