To get back on topic & just to make it clear...Edmundo Ros was a band leader, how did it end up with banned leaders?

But what about the size of that wheel on the Jensen?

It looks like it came off the Queen Mary!

Back in the day cars tended to have serious steering wheels. In the 70's it was how small can we make them (after market ones anyway).....even I had big biceps for a while

Yeah, right. And that from he who, once, wore his avatar with pride!

Just to clarify .... I was referring to the cobblers I tend to spout

Cor, you 'aint 'arf 'ard work John!

I was alluding to the fact that I am a person who also talks loads of cobblers & not in a position to comment, hence the "people in glass houses" reference.

This sketch has gone on far to long; right then new sketch starting now!
Imagine Python theme music please

Aw shucks

I never really got Python.

It was mildly amusing at times but I like my comedy to be simple. John Cleese was sublime as Basil Fawlty, unfortunately he's not been funny since. Those AA ad's he does are cringe worthy

I said that I was a fan!

Here are some other "celebs" trampling on the masses on their march to glory (as you no doubt recall).
