  1. 4 for me.But heck nothing on farthings
  2. Most of the world has a climate, we have weather There's no such thing as the wrong weather just the wrong cloths Unfortunately there's not many Tarzans in this jungle who wear cloths these days. A big wooly jumper is sufficient. I'll keep my leapord skin loin cloth for the bedroom Mine is a python skin one
  3. Circulation coins don't do it for me.i'm thinking back to pre 47 silver and those horrible copper coins
  4. Agreed My eldest has been advised A+ plus and she is so laid back with earning £9 hour (including tips).My kids really don't have a clue...I blame Grandma Laptops,phones,Wii,Kindle all supplied plus lifts to any venue and the full use of my Ebay account.Love em all lets hope they get preggies soon and bugger off.
  5. There was also a Theresa Green at my school, also a gentelman with the surname Hunt . I worked with a guy who I can't think of his first name with the surname Riddle, of course he was called Jimmy. I also worked with another guy who would wear the same shirt all week, he was christened Daz. I worked with a George Best who stank.Even my egg/tea stained tie was changed every day.
  6. The QPR footballer called Fitz Hall is nicknamed one size Also Justin Sidebottom
  7. Drove by a smoking stag on the way to a party in Hendon and my mate asked the owner for a light...Oh the pleasure of a 2.8 Capri
  8. A guy I worked with had the AA following him around in his MG. It will be a cayman for me when I upgrade.Although Mrs Peter has a Hyundai S111 coupe,when I swapped her Pug 307 diesel for this I had tears,and every bonus Just very little goes wrong,it clunks,gets serviced and thats it.
  9. I love a nice bit of liver or kidney (my nickname was Kidney wiper)but faggots no
  10. I wouldn't have the cheek to sell them...Bin time.
  11. I've got to a stage of VF+.Fillers have been upgraded.I've got a few low grade varieties. With hammered a full flan and ID is important.Grading them is a thankless task (as struck can mean crap)
  12. You are missing our lovely spring weather not to mention good old British pies
  13. Heralds had a fantastic turning circle....although my Morris Marina 1.8 super coupe delux was the dogs.I rebuilt the engine...you could always smell a knackered Leyland...and then I got my 1st company car a brown 1.1 escort which I nicknamed "the turd"this was replaced by a spanking new 1.3 escort.WOW
  14. Mushy peas yummie. My nans suet steak and kidney pud took some beating.I can remember linen and string being used.The suet soaked in gravey was served 1st. This was then flushed down with proper tea before the veg and meat was served. and grandad would give me pre 47 silver and let me roll him a smoke.(baccy only
  15. I'm showing my class here for confessing my love for Fray Bentos tinned pies.I'm allowed one occasionally.Simple food but I love some soggy pastry.
  16. If it was started at 99p it might make £2 for the silver
  17. Looks like the Midland fair will let me spend a few pounds then put on a couple
  18. No disrepect but the are all as common as lambs droppings in April.As can be said of 1758 shillings,1754 farthings (not the 4/0) and 1853 farthings ( the incuse are rarer).Just avoid.I also have obtained over 10 1720 farthings
  19. I'd say that its metal content is now worth more than 5p! Yeah, but then you need a couple of kg of them to make it worth while! Peck I was stashing pre 92 copper away.I got to £20 and realised I could make a tenner...sorry it aint going to be my forte.
  20. Try your kids on good bread and some nice sherry vinegar...they never want a pud
  21. Mrs Peter's chicken pie is stunning.I won't knock Greggs because they are OK. Home made is the best as at least you can see what is in it. I like a farmers market and fresh fish.How many have my daughters friends never eaten real food? I have served up lobster/cromer crab and brown shrimp with hot home made bread & the yuckie salad with a good balsamic vinegar...gone...I still like a bucket of KFC with a couple of Ossie largers
  22. I worked near a Greggs in Canning Town(Jubileee line) only a 195mile comute and quite frankly the choice between Greggs/Eels and pies or Asian delights was awfull.Ban em all I say. Happily I now work with a cheese and onion flat bread,proper sausages and the occasional pint of lunch time ale or a nice Greek salad followed by a siesta. Istill like a Curry when fueled with Minovois and a gut full of Abbot.
  23. at the end of the day it will be supply and demand.Mrs Peter bought 2 hot chickens for £2 each from Asda as they were past the 2hr rule.Let the poor eat cake
  24. He is respected in the coin industry and produced some excellent books.His prices at coin fairs are more in line with the market. Who buys from his publications apart from ham fisted cowboys and the uneducated collector.?(under duress)
