What did you save up for but never buy.

My mate had fs1e (fizzy) it was ace, same here I needed to get to work 7 miles away, all weathers

I stuck with bikes up until recently, now I just have two oldies … a matchless G80 and a little bantam

Younger than me too but i reckon i’d have to live several lives to pack in what he did in his. However i still have a full head of hair obviously it’s a bit greyer than the original.

Warnie was an arsehole, a wânkér, a cheating husband & a poor father.

i much more preferred Andrew “Roy” Symonds. Didn’t like the limelight & preferred to go bush. My kinda bloke

he had a lot of hair back in the day, but ended up with the same hairstyle as me

died while driving a 70 Series Toyota. Legend
I think that’s how I’d like to go

Hmmm, any bloke who bangs Liz Hurley is doing pretty well in my books!

Was he not on some crash diet?

I’m not sure i subscribe to the belief that famous people ( especially sportsmen ) should be role models. Warne was a brilliant cricketer but maybe not someone you’d want much else to do with. I dunno because i’ve really never met anyone famous.

I’ve been putting just £2 coins in one of those money tins you can only get into with a can opener, Covid has slowed/knackered the job a bit with less cash transactions but it’s two thirds full, before that I saved £1 coins in large grolsh bottle, that held £400, and that bought Jed the border terrier, from 13 to 15 l worked Saturdays in the village shop for £15 a day, I saved up for a Yamaha DT50 mx,white with a red seat, G reg, i loved that bike and the freedom it gave me

We did this years ago, not long after the two pound coins appeared, collected them for a year and took them all to the Royal Welsh as beer money for the week!!
