When I lived in Stone, I used to nip up the A34 for a couple of pies.

I'll have to call in this month and show my new financial burdon, sorry 944 off.

I might see you there, I have a meeting to go to in Stafford on the 20th and if it lasts all day I'll have a ride up.

looking good, glad to see a proper job being done, i didn't think fuches would fit an '87 due to offsets, but they certainly look the biz

That 944's a real bargain, even after replacing the sills. How come I can never find bargains like this?

oatcakes, well everytime I pass there, I bring a couple of packs back, used to be able to get them in the local sainsburys but they stopped selling them, said there was no demand, but you could only get them once in a while.

its a very nice food, only ever seen them in the potteries, you can have them with sweet or savory fillings, and they look like pancakes but are made with oats.
