They'll let you call them what you want to.

Incidentally, my mate who "visits Bury" just got back from Mexico. He got chased out of a generic massage place for getting his knob out. He just assumes everywhere is a brothel. I worry about his trips to the dentists and GP.

I had a workbench tidy last night. Finished all the Medievals that Simon gave me in the Lucky Dip, except the monk. Now I'm waiting for a nice little delivery from LT of some more. This will be an army entirely foraged from other peoples unwanted piles!

I used to know a bloke who always called them by his wife's name. I guess it helped avoid embarrassing errors at home.

Yes, I was a bit stunned once whilst travelling in Indonesia to discover that the hotel massage room was for ……. massage. Very odd.

What are you using for the pantiles - the special card strips? It's a bit more expensive, but Charlie Foxtrot sells resin pantile roofs for their Peninsula range - I'm sure at least one of the square ones would fit that building.

Also unsafe around the loose fruit and veg in Tesco's as well, presumably?

Card ones from Warbases. Not confident cutting resin, it’s very brittle

No, the resin doesn't need cutting, it's a preformed roof - like the bottom two on this page:-

I know, but that roof is a rectangle whereas the ones on the Limes Tower are triangles

Not sure what you mean by that - are you looking at the roofs on the tower and the store?

Ah right! I didn’t scroll down that far. Good point!
