    What this reminds me of is the miners strike and the way the Police Force of Great Britain were used to intimidate them to force the agenda of the government of the day.

    Beef dripping sprinkled with pepper, yum! yum! Higher calorie count than butter, but soooo tasty you only need to spread it thinly. Bring back chips cooked in beef dripping - so much tastier than any cooked in oil.

    I still have toast & dripping, love the stuff, from beef, pork, chicken and looking forward to Boxing day's turkey dripping!:D:p
    The jelly is often as good if not tastier than the fat too!
    My dogs like to share it with me too, who would deny then a bit of the good stuff?

    Oh no, Greyhounds have manners, but how the hell do they know, in the preparation stages, they are getting some?
    They get exactly the same as us, (Minus the sprouts!:confounded:), just before we get ours then they sleep it off and we eat in peace!

    Ah ..... Frickley Colliery, South Elmsall. Sigh! A mate of mine from school lived around there and would regularly sign me in to the Pretoria W.M.C. when I went over to visit. Happy days.:) Not been back that way for years ... I bet it's changed a lot!!:eek::confused:

    Marty Feldman, one of my earliest recollections of a real comedian, such a shame he went so young.
    I used to laugh at him, that's when my dad started to worry about my warped sense of humour.!

    Done b@gger all on the bike for a month. Having bit of trouble with the old health which has kept me off the bikes; weather hasn't helped either. Roll on some warmer dry weather........
