My first RTBC has to be @mjb getting this place going. I'll second that! I am truly impressed with the speed with which the whole thing happened. |

My RTBC is MJB getting this new forum going. That's my first RTBC as well. I missed a proper photo forum and this new start could be very good.
My second RTBC is a miraculous escape from the snow the other night. Driving from Hants to Kent I was taken entirely by surprise by the snow at the Kent end. I ended up stuck on a (not very steep) hill surrounded by abandoned cars. How I managed to eventually persuade my car through the melee and up the hill was indeed a miracle. I claim no skill - just luck.
A normally 1.20hr journey took almost 6 hours - but we made it. I'm still trembling!!!

Shopping recently, I came across a couple of shirts that were heavily discounted, clearly remaindered on the grounds of good taste. They were a particularly hideous shade of bright purple that no mother her child, not spouse her partner, would permit to leave the house in, but nonetheless be a great treasure to a Roman emperor. I bought them both, instantly.
Unfortunately, when I got them home I found they had no breast pocket, which I have always used to hold my reading glasses and pen, so have been unable to wear them. My latest purchase, however, is a weskit of an equally hideous shade of blue - but with pockets. The combination thereof achieves a new low in the halls of fashion, and on Friday I shall step out for the weekly shopping, gloriously resplendent in my new attire.
I may need some bail money...

I think we need photos of this Michael Portillo get up. |

Recently had surgery on my arm and, being a kitchen gadget type of person, I decided to buy an egg cooker in the sale. I know, all you need is a frying pan or a saucepan but, I am currently one-handed and carrying stuff is awkward. Anyways, I misplaced the little measuring cup which had the markings for the small amount of water you need. I emailed Salter to ask what the measurements were and,three days later, a free measuring cup arrived with their best wishes! I thought it a nice gesture and it really cheered me up.  |

I have to say it looks a little better in daylight than it did in the strip lighting in the shop, but nonetheless, would you have worn this to an interview with the commissioner? One thing's for sure - it don't go with my usual sports jacket and cavalry twills! Attachment Deleted |
