Popular Post chrisp65 Posted June 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2014 Sunday morning walk, nice n quiet before the Brummies turn up in their fleets of Aziz coaches. Don't get me wrong, the place went through 20 years of them not coming and the economy suffered something fierce because of it. But it's always lovely and peaceful just before and after visitors. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 The World Cup and my run of luck with watching it, for instance, missed the 0:0 first half of yesterday's Germany game, caught the 2:2 second half missed the 0:0 majority of the Belgium Russia game, saw the winner dug up my first top notch bag of this year's spuds, got home, watched Algeria vs S Korea lovely weekend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted June 22, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2014 Talking of spuds... got chatting to the bloke who's got the next allotment to ours. Turns out he plays guitar, likes the same sort of stuff as me. We've arranged to get together for a bit of jamming with a view to a possible band. Excellent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) I'll be old one day, touchwood, and I'll always love rock and playing guitar, but I will never own an allotment. I am awful at gardening and it's not my thing. I guess I'll have to ask around the old guys playing chess in the park for any potential bandmates. It brings up something I've always wondered though, and perhaps this is the wrong thread for it, but when I'm say, 50 or 60, will I still be wearing similar clothes to now? Does your taste in clothing get more reserved with old age or is it simply that the fashion moves on but you feel more comfortable wearing the clothes you're more used to? Also, I'm into video games and I know plenty of the older generations think they're for kids, but when people of my generation are older, will we still be playing games and using the internet? Will that be stuff the old people do while the youth have fads and crazes of their own? Edited June 22, 2014 by Ginko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am awful at gardening and it's not my thing. I would have said the same until very recently. In fact I'm still pretty ambivalent about it. Never been remotely interested in gardening - although the missus lives for it - but this is somehow different. A bit of pottering about, and free potatoes. Would never have done it if I had to fit it in around work, but I've got plenty of time now, so it's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chrisp65 Posted June 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2014 just to show the rock n roll credentials of allotments I got my allotment when the last custodian was kicked off site for growing weed the husband and wife 4 allotments down from ours have been caught at it in their shed Most exciting thing that's happened to me is that Brian next door sounded me out for playing bowls, I was hoping it was code, but it was just bowls. I draw the line at bowls. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
