Things must have changed the last 20 years. I remember it relieving just enough of the congestion that you didn't actually need to use it.

You still don't most days. If it's clear then the M6 is still quicker. More of a security blanket if you don't mind paying. On the wrong day it will save you a lot of time though

Local vegan fast food outlet today - free Impossible burger with every order.
Wife ordered a meal, I ordered fries, and got two free burgers!

The return of Time Team as a crowd funded series. No channel 4, no Tony Robinson, obviously no Mick, and sadly no Phil, but the programmes on You tube are a joy for an archaeology fan like me. Its fabulous to see.

(sorry I am a right geek)

Didn't know about that, cheers, Time Team was a programme we all watched as a family, it encouraged my eldest to do Archaelogy at uni.

Bloke who is trying to get me back into work has a connection with the Time Team lot, and knew I had an interest in that area so let me know.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

On you tube type in Time Team new and away you go.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I mean both you and Tony Robinson inexplicably rate the first series of Blackadder AND Rik Mayall's cameo appearances, there's the connection

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I dont like the first series at all bar the Queen of Spain's beard!!

Mayall in Bells is superlative though.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

In fact the wedding scene with Lord Flashheart I can probably still quote most of the lines even though it is 37 years old (christ!)

Hi Bridesmaid, like the beard, gives me something to hang on to

Hey - Melchy - still worshipping God? Last time I looked he was worshipping me

Am I pleased to see you or is this a canoe in my pocket.

Wasn't that the second series?

 

[sycophantia]

Don't think Rik May all was bad in anything, although the earliest thing I remember him being in was an 80s sketch show, his character was Kevin Turvey

1st season was OK but looks utter shite when compared with the 2nd

From Redditch IIRC.

The accent didn't work though, comedy Brummie

That’s my point. I loved Blackadder II.

 

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

I get confused too easily.

 

[nimrod]

From Redditch IIRC.

he did a hour one off on redditch which loads of people from there complained about as they were expecting a serious programme about the place.

it had ade edmondsen and Robbie coltrane in it.

 

[The Bear]

He and Ade were always great in Bottom Live. Used to rip into where ever they were playing and the audience loved it

 

[lemonjelly]

At a slight tangent, am going to see A Christmas carol at the RSC, as Ade Edmonson has been announced as the lead.
