  1. YEEEHAH! WE HAVE A WINNER. Well done Mercuryg, you got it darn to rights, Ryan is the correct answer. I will post your prize ASAP. GOOD ONE.
  2. Now Merc', let me introduce you to the Father Ted school of Astronomy and Relative Distance...
  3. Nope. You all keep guessing now. There is a name out there that connects these darlings of Thespis. Think films, luvvies, think of films they have been in - OR RATHER THE FILM TITLES.
  4. Good guess Canny Lass but not the connection I'm after. Honest, when I reveal it you will all scream and have a hissy fit.
  5. No, not Blue Eyes, but I can give everybody their names. Frank Sinatra, Matt Damon & Sarah Miles. Now what 'other' name connects them?
  6. Naw, can't be, there's more than one of them!
  7. UPDATE. It's 19.11 Thursday night 2012. I've just focused on Jupiter and there seems to be a string of lights to the upper right of Jupiter- a bit like the Shoemaker-Levy 9 event. I don't think it is glare on my 12 X 50's but it is weird. Surely I can't see the moons with my bins, Symptoms?
  8. Merc', Jupiter is on the other side of the Moon tonight - top right as you look at it.
  9. Yeah, Symptoms, I have a craving but my wallet is empty. I've just been back out and it's another clear sky (Freezing as well). Now I am going to tell Mercuryg that Jupiter is now on the other side of the Moon - that place of magnificent desolation. PS - I nearly did my neck in last night looking at the sky. I got a glimpse of cassiopia, I think, then tripped over one of the moggies. Black cats and skywatching don't exactly mix.
  10. Nope.
  11. Certainly was, Merc', to the left as you gazed upon moon. It has been there all month. Oh how I wish I had a powerful telescope to see it's moons.
  12. I I know the feeling. I've got two rooms decorated and another two to do. But I can give you a clue on this one - think of names.
  13. NOBODY GOING TO HAZARD A GUESS AT THIS? I HAVEN'T HUFFED ANYONE HAVE I?
  14. Just had a brilliant clear view of the full Moon, Jupiter & Aldebaran. At least for a few minutes then cloud cover came over just as I was looking for the Pleiades.
  15. I gave a ton to Air Ambulance just before the house got refurbished. But getting back To TomTom's original thread, yes, I agree the rubbish in that area is disgusting, but it is mainly fag ends. I have never seen any rats around the area - not that i am looking, mind you. But it is an interesting topic. Let's play scenarios. A kid throws a Greggs' wrapper on the ground and gets done for littering - but somebody flicks their fag end on the pavement and that's okay!!! No, sorry, there should be no difference. The streets are full of butts and it's disgusting. It's the same if you go to the beach; miles of sand and underneath fag ends. Solutions on a postcard please.
  16. With my old stuff I'll be a millionaire this time next year. Now where's my polo-neck sweaters?
  17. I saw the shop, Adam, but I heard it was cash 4 clothes. You took your clothes to them and got cash, so I thought. I've got all my kipper ties, flares and platform boots ready.
  18. Am I naive or is it true that Tesco owns the land & old Co-op so that no one else can build on it - ie - no competition can hustle in and take away trade. I mean whats the difference with that and say...Al Capone and a protection racket? And while I'm on the subject why is Bedlington the only town NOT to have a single charity shop. PAWS, for crying out loud realise the potential. I for one will work in the shop for you - now it's in writing.
  19. Sorry, Varmints, been up to the sombrero in DIY & Decorating. But am back and here's yor new connection.
  20. Sorry varmints, had a bit of a panic on my hands. Here's your answer. They have all played taxi drivers. Robert de Niro Taxi Driver Peter Falk It's a mad mad mad mad world. Bruce Willis The Fifth Element Christopher Lloyd Taxi (TV Series)
  21. We are their favourite uncle, everyone keeps borrowing off us.
  22. Okay varmints, looks like a stalemate has developed so I'll give to 6 pm then I'll supply the answer. It's a pity if no one gets it because the prize was being Kylie Minogue's personal dresser on her forth-coming tour. (oh well, guess I'll have to volunteer my services. Now where's that box of thongs.)
  23. I agree with my namesake. I used to play down the woods everyday practically in the 60s & 70s and the Seven Sisters were still there. Wind damage rings a bell as well. (PS welcome to the site James.)
  24. My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60. Now he's 97 years old and we have no idea where the hell he is.
