Shandon Par Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Just been reading a Men's Health style fitness guide to manly health (from 1836). I reckon many P&B'ers would have been prime specimens heading into 1837. Drink only beer and cider (red wine permissible with lunch) and do a bit of wrestling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Just been reading a Men's Health style fitness guide to manly health (from 1836). I reckon many P&B'ers would have been prime specimens heading into 1837. Drink only beer and cider (red wine permissible with lunch) and do a bit of wrestling. The half pint if red wine would have been with their tea as dinner for them would have been tea for us. If the diet consisted of a lot of beer and cider how could you carefully avoid everything inducing flatulence? Or did the daily walk equivalent to half way from Dundee to Perth and back again knacker you so much you couldn't fart? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Drinking beer was the healthy option back in the day because of the issues with finding clean drinking water. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 The kids on that show outnumbered have actually grown up.The youngest is a right chunky b*****d. And they appear to have lost any cutesy charm they once had. There was pictures doing the rounds on Twitter of the youngest and the lassie obviously pilled at a festival and fair play to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I've just seen an advert for Kaspersky computer protection which seemed to be aimed at teenage girls sending nudes to their boyfriend and parents being able to access porn while preventing their young children from doing so I may be going mad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Watching Twin Peaks, halfway through season 2 nearly and I'm not really sure why... Must be the strangest weirdest most confusing programme I've ever sat down and watched for so long but I'm so incredibly enthralled I'm not sure why. Maybe it's simply because Shelly, Norma and Audrey are beauts, who knows. Eta: and the soundtrack song does my nut in too, it's terrible and comes up all the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetterlund Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Does this Kaspersky software stop the lassie's boyfriend showing her nude pics to his mates down the pub? I'd have thought that's a far bigger risk than anyone hacking them online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the first series again recently with mrs. Everything cranked up to 11 - the acting, the costumes, the music. Nutty but very enjoyable stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILLIEA Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Wife has just read out a thing saying that Cliff Richard & The Shadows are getting back together. Wonder if their first single will be " The Old Ones " ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
