Well he hasn't mentioned it - perhaps he thinks it's always been like that, or maybe he hasn't noticed yet :stars:

Are you there, John - can you hear us talking about you :neener:

No - perhaps too busy writing letters about folk singers to the LRO :wink:

Maybe he lies on the bonnet and peeks over the front edge. It will look OK from there. :wink:

I don't get the LRO. Has John been waxing about Joni Mitchell et al?

Just googled the lady :whistle:
She's still doing it as we speak.
Doubt if she's an overlander's cup of mint tea.

Well as we're on the subject now and in the interests of accuracy, I thought you guys would have spotted that whilst we tend to use reams of bog paper to 'clean' (?) our bums, many inhabitants of the developing world don't use paper but wash their behinds, using their left hands of course and in the absence of water use a handy stick or appropriately shaped stone! Nuff said??

A handy stick? I can feel my eyes watering already. Sounds like self-abuse.

Wondered what those two-tone-stones were in Maroc! Sand and one's starfish? Ouch.

No Gordon that's Loo Rolls - plural with an 's' - 'You'll never find etc' - great song.

You guys have got to widen your horizons and leave the safety of Yorks and Humberside - the sticks and stones are for scraping stuff off not for hooking it out. You gotta spell it out!

If we widen our horizons it will make the long drop easier.

How do you spell it out? Squat and say Abracadabra? :mrgreen:
