He's your idol, isn't he?That's sacrilege, you young guttersnipe. Anastrophe is one the latchet of whose trainers I am not worthy to unloose. You forget perhaps that he holds the keys to the kingdom on FG and those who cross him in even the smallest regard softly and silently vanish away.

Nice thread killing I fail to see the relevance of either of your posts.

Hey and one Canadian friend too

Is it eight days and counting now? Suppose it must be...

anyway, Betty and I went to Truro again and I did some brilliant navigation in the multi storey car park...we exited without a problem...

oh and we're not 100% sure about transporting the pasties if the weather is hot...we don't want to give the FG party food poisoning for the weekend. But the cream, jam and splits shouldn't prove a problem.

do you have a cooler and ice packs (ack likely canadian terminology but worth asking about )

Thanks, Minks...we did discuss cool bags and ice packs...so much depends on when we can actually buy the pasties and, as Betty suggested, whether we consider buying them uncooked and frozen, or cooked and unfrozen...watch this space...

I did my apprenticeship as a telecommunications engineer in London back in 1971. This pub is in one of the areas that I covered, but I never came across it. So, I shall be wanting to explore it too. We can explore it together. Another great thing is that Holborn isn't a tourist spot, although it is in the oldest part of London (The Square Mile as it's called).
