I smoked my last ciggie 16 months ago but I've relied very heavily on the electric version since then.

Is the purpose of the stitch to hold the roll up in place behind your ear?
Seriously, well done Pete. It's an extremely difficult thing to do.

I remember going to the Hippodrome in the early 50's to see Dick Whittington. An adult in a "cat" suit came into the auditorium and I remember being terrified at the sight of this 6' tall creature.

I'm all for helping poorly children or anyone else in trouble but today was a fiasco. We had to get to Owler Bar for 12.30 but Newbold was turned into an island with no way out. After trawling round diversion after diversion, we finally met a steward with a bit of common sense who let us drive carefully the 50 yards on a "closed" road to freedom. Even then we had a long journey to get us back on track to where we wanted to be. Very poor and inconsiderate disorganisation.

As does the Arrow Farm shop ... just along from the Half Moon on the Worksop Road.
