Made I smile, that you associated it with the film, whereas it reminded me of the playground - at junior school! :-D

A few takers so far, very impressed with Gibbo's contribution on the "Ear Syringing!", and still looking for the latest use of the "deluxe" badge!

Can't think of anything wonderful to wax lyrical about (geddit?), so let's see how these two get on . . .

I don't know if anyone's interested but the challenge handed down for me in 2019 might make a potential thread...

After stating I was chasing no PBs or any particular running or cycling targets this year I was, given my love of refreshments of the baked variety, handed down a challenge to eat a different cake in every cafe I visit in 2019. The challenge has started well with three cafes visited so far and three different cakes :)

I visit a lot of cafes rather frequently and over the course of the year it could amount to over 300 different cakes ;)

This could turn into a valuable resource for recommending cafes and their offerings as well as monitoring my success at this most challenging challenge!

What do you think?

Whether a thread may be interesting to others or not, just start one. What is there to lose?......nothing. I guarantee you will get at least one reply! ...and more to the point its hashtag startanewthreadinJanuary so its morally compulsory right now. :-D

Hope you managed to see my link a couple of posts back. I think Chris's pic came from a Franklin gallery which included one of your favourites an XM with the reg LAF.
