Oh dear, that is such sad news. Bob was a lovely bloke and an incredibly talented modeller. RIP Bob, you will be much missed.

In the old days it was not uncommon to find two bog rolls on one bit of rope, and for the period Mike is modeling a roof on the gents was a luxurary...alas the ladies would have been a much more looked after afair located within the main station building.....

ah you got me ted.. failure to compensate bum width..at Lazy Grange Bay, we measure actual bricks and bums. google bricks are of course,virtual bricks..and though i did do some resurch on bums..i wasntv to impressed sizes wise..everything usa is bigger..but not neccarly better..big bums require renforced seats ect.. so itookthe middle ground, best of both. wider rolls, and smaller, tighter bums..i like a nice tight arse..
as for the open air bit, its how i remember it.. best way to let any lingering smells disapate

Open air here in many old seats of comfort. Bog rolls, more like some news paper on a sting to in some places! Hmm and if there was a roof....it leaked



Sorry to read of the loss of you mate Mike, his still with you in spirit though.

Or it was that orrible shiney Izal stuff. Bloomin useless at doing what it was supposed to do, but was probably the only stuff that would survive being outdoors?

How come we always eventually get around to the same subject?
