My boyhood holidays in Wales seemed always to be sunny.
Apart from when we went to Anglesey. Boy that was shit.

I lived in cheshire growing up
so North Wales was the classic holiday because it was in another country but only a few hours away. I spent a lot of time eating chips in Porthmadog trying to be interested in steam trains

I lived in Cheltenham for a couple of years so I hear ya, Cap.
Although to my excellent luck our holidays were steam-train free but chock-full of CASTLES.

oh yeah, those too
also walking/driving for miles to look at some rock. Not rock music, just some rock that had some mythology attached.

I got my own back and took my parents to see Arthur's Stone round here. It's just a big fuck off piece of rock

I have absolutely no problem with that kind of thing whatsoever.
I plan to acquire Julian Cope's 'Modern Antiquarian' and do a neolithic monument tour at some point. I love that shit.

Oh man, when I next come up to London I'm going to find a Wimpy and get myself Bendered RIGHT UP.

OMG!
Is that near where the bash is this weekend, because if it is I totally need some Bender action, too!

Hey Captain, we could go for a bender before going on a bender!

YAY!
I'm excited now!

I hate to piss on your chips.
But I can't make it this weekend, so a Wimpy would have to wait 'till the great bash boyce.

I'm not coming to that one, though
I shall have to find other Benders to Bender with

ALL THE MORE BENDERS FOR US, JEFFLES.

I'd imagine they taste awful.
To the point that I might just buy one for a bit of a laugh, and then not eat it.

Jeff: can't take a bender

And I'm proud of the fact.
Imagine if they were really nice though. How depressing would that be?

I think they would be Benderific
and you'd become a benderholic

I'd have to buy my own Wimpy franchise so I could bender it up all the time then.

Take pic of self posing with said bender, then bin it.

That would work.
Although I'm guessing a bender in a bun (ON A PLATE!!11!!!) would probably cost as much as something I'd enjoy eating.

Open a spreadsheet. It's the best way to stay on top of people's whereabouts.
That's what someone on here told me.

I am tempted by this
I could keep information about where they work, what they think about Dr Who and who they're stalking.

Many of the artists were certainly 'challenged'.
Although if Deacon had stayed alive a bit longer I'm sure he would have cut a disc. That would have been comedy gold.
