Thankyou very much Mr Coolcat. I'll have some Brussels Sprouts ready in a bit too!:D:D:D

Thankyou very much Mr Graham1961! I'll drink to that!:D:wine:

Stu, don't forget the mustard for the sprouts, gives them a little kick!

Naga chillies, thats the way to go:D

It will be stingy ringy for all me thinks:D

Sprouts ??? i would rather remove my one working gonad without pain relief

How would one go about removing offending article?
I mean, what is the prefered method ?

I'm guessing we are upsetting the chilled out vibe here, back to smooth jazz and a baileys and ice:)

two bricks :getmecoat:;)

edit , or an applecorer maybe , or even a lino knife if pushed . lol.

That's brought tears to my eyes and I feel I should cross my legs!

And on that note I bid you all goodnight!
Chill and have a lovely night, don't forget to check out the very large full moon tonight:)

Just have checked out the full moon. I was ok but I’m not Nohowlllllllllll:D

My whole household is sad for you today mate.

Thanks George & also for that warm tribute on the other thread.....................she'd probably respond by sinking her claws into your leg but you & I know it would be meant in good humour:D

Dont know what else to say mate .

I will raise a glass to her

The bar seems to be going just fine Mr Coolcat! Many new faces! Horlicks eh? That's certainly the hard stuff! :D

Well, I relented in the end and had a Bishops Finger:drool4:

Been a good day then! I must say it's been quite busy in the Leyland room hasn't it! Ah! Before I forget, on the cover of thos month's Classic Bus Magazine, there's a picture of a unique Leyland Lowloader- on hore to Glasgow Corporation... Every time I see a picture of GC buses I remember the saying you told me about- come on get aff!:D

" right you come oan get aff ":D

Oh yes Colin! Please do! That'd look nice in the bar!:D:drool4:

I wish they were all still at their original roadside locations

I do George, that's a fine picture!:D

So do I Colin, I did see one when I went to Leyland about eleven years ago. I would like to go back as the museum was closed when I was there!:)

Well I cant keep putting it off I'd better get away home...................night all:}

With permission from the OP this thread has been re-titled and stuck :D

We've been stuck :D
Don't think the bar is open in the afternoon !
What happened to all day drinking, far to responsible for that sort of thing here.
I was hoping for a pimms and lemonade seeing how the weather is so nice today:}

Hi Mr Coolcat! Large jug of Pimms and lemonade coming up! All day drinking is go! Now the Leyland Chillout Rooms is a permanent establishment! Thankyou to all the clientele for your support! Welcome all! The more the merrier!:D:grouphug::wine::pepsi::beer2:

I did rather like the themed pub style but I suppose I'll get used to the new look:D

Slightly different name, same personal service! Still a staunch Leyland supporter! How are you today Colin?:)

Much better thanks Stu............people on here have been great:}

Afternoon all :D

Oooh Pool Table, and bar snacks, you spoil us sir :D

Afternoon:} is that your bowl of spiced noodles, peanuts & chickpeas? Oh my mistake it's Bombay Mick's:getmecoat:

Cider and Pies will be made and supplied on request.;)

Consider it requested:}

ooooooh pies, pies? mince???




:)
.

It's fine with me but you might have to run it past Stu first;)

Thanks Colin that means a lot to me

I thought he would need initiated first..:shrug:

Does it involve feathers and dressing up:D

Certainly Derek! As Dennis used to buy Leyland engines for their products, welcome on board! How are you? Everyone ok? Enjoying your cider and pies? At this rate, I'm considering hiring more bar staff!:D:D

LOL! What did you have in mind?:D:getmecoat:

Glad you're feeling better Colin. We're here for you!:)

Good afternoon Mr Pob06! Bar snacks and pool table all part of the service!:D

A pool table.....:shrug::confused: I thought this was going to be a class establishment...:shrug::getmecoat::cool:

:eek: Thought it was a 24 hour place...:getmecoat:

Hello and welcome Ms Poppy! It is a class establishment, but you'll have to learn how to play pool!:D:p::getmecoat:

Just ring the bell for service! Recruiting bar staff now!:D:D:D

i shall be chilling later watching wigan beat blackburn while i gulp down aussie shiraz .:D

Now that's a good way to.spend an evening! I'm going to be on my break soon... Nice pasta salad awaits!:D:drool4:

the wife and i went for a drive down the ayrshire coast and stopped at a wee smokehouse for lunch , i had langoustines tempura to start followed by salmon and halibut and seabass with more langoustines , sticky toffe pudding to finish and i bought scallops and langoustines in the smokehouse shop for later :drool4:

Hello men and Poppy! and any other female member I have inadvertently forgotten. I have been away working my wotsisnames off doing a new website well 2 in fact 1 French and 1 English www.raidequestrian.com then choose language.
It's nice to have 10 mins to surf rather than work.

You'll be needing a Pie to go with that game Flyer! ;)

no no no no no , i'm on a diet :D

I'm on 2, not enough to eat on only 1! :getmecoat:

BTW ian welcome to the CHILL ZONE which has taken the place of the hijackers and is a STICKY :D

Hi Ian and welcome to the Chil Zone! Sorry its late, grabbing time at stands to catch up! All this talk of pies! I could eat one now! Sounds like both had a really good day George! Cannot wait until my long weekend; belts being done and a new fan too!:D

And as the lounge is open i will crack open my aussie SHIRAZ :drool4: [hic]

Well I had a lovely pitcher of pimms and lemonade this afternoon, thanks Stu:bowdown:
Now what to drink this evening, any ideas?

what about a nice chilled chardonny:drool4:

Sounds good but then so does the Shiraz you are currently enjoying:drool4:

McWilliams HANWOOD ESTATE 2008 [slurp slurp] , sharing it with the wife :mad::o:D

Oooh get you!!! Have a good one George! Any plans for your time off?:p::D:getmecoat:

yes , DOING NOTHING .:D

What about cocktails? Well it is nearly summer you know! Or maybe a nice cool Fullers Honeydew- enjoy with cheese and biscuits!:drool4::D

Cheese.......:drool4:
Got me thinking, I have a nice mature Stilton that I can get out of the fridge and leave at room temperature for a couple of hours.
Will go lovely on some crackers washed down with the Taylor's Port!

We are spoilt for choice in the chill out room:D
Could stay for a very long time, unlike George got to go to work tomorrow :(
But will be looking forward to getting back here afterwards !!

Some great Chill out music.
John Lee Hooker and Santana>

Good evening and welcome Mr Baggie9! Some brilliant artists there, will watch the link when I've finished work! Talking of music, I've been buying as many volumes of He'd Kandi Winter Chill compilations as I can. An eclectic mix of little known and more well known groups- too many to list- and I've bought a fair few albums from those artists as a result! Mr Coolcat, I know exactly what I'm doing on Wednesday evening after work! I'm buying said Stilton and Honeydew and kicking back with some chilled music! Any recommendations for Stilton?:D:drool4:

Fair play George! I'll be doing the same on Thursday and Friday!:D

MOT on thursday but that apart i is gonna chill bigtime :D

Ok baggie we will install it in the 60s style jukebox that arrives soon .

Make that a shropshire blue and i'm in .

Taylors port ????? good :p:choice .

Good luck with the MOT I'm sure it will sail through!:)

in 7 years of 75 ownership my cars have never passed first time , alway something small but always something :mad:

They are far too picky.:D

Will be fine! Changing the subject slightly, but when my mother was visiting the other day, all my kitchen cupboards were checked! What's that all about? :shrug::D

Think yourself lucky she did'nt go through your dirty underwear :getmecoat:

LOL! Thats true! Well I've not got too long now; quarter past one finish!:D

That's me poured the last of the SHIRAZ :mad:

However i have another bottle :D

Good morning! How goes the wine? Just finished, a soothing drive back home now!:D

decided on a nice single malt instead of opening the 2nd bottle of wine stu :D

This evening I will be mainly partaking of a Cabernet Syrah. :wine:

quite fond of a cabernet sav if i cant lay hands on a shiraz.

BTW you sounded like jessie from the fast show in that post :p:

Another week off George................you've got a better job than a Colliery Pollis:D

This is my first week of 6 i take every year , the guy i drive for got 6 a year when he drove for me so whats good for the goose is good for flyer col :drool4:

Can't argue with that:D

being self employed though i dont earn anything and unlike an employee i get no holiday pay but after 30 odd years of doing it i'm used to it.:p:

Hi Stu:)
Just stumbled upon your bar.
May I put forwards this song for your chill out duke box.

Always works for me;)

Oh and do you sell pork scratchings:drool4:

Good afternoon Jay and a big welcome to the LCOZ! I'll check out the song too! Pork scratchings sold here!:D:D:D

Nice one Stu. Looks like this is my new local then:D

Good afternoon Mr Pob06! How's you? I'm on day six of a seven day week... All long duties, but looking forward to a long weekend!:D

ack ntb mate ta, just popped in for a cheeky vimto before the afternoon of toil.

nuts ?????????


Salted or dry roasted ?????:p:

Yup thats me.......:nutters:

I blame the meds ..... ;)

I had some good news today.

Last year I tried to sell the 04 CDTi conny se on the forum and not a sausage. It was up for sale here for many months. OK it was a bad time then and it still is what with the state of the nation and the rest of the world.

Since last September it has been sitting in a showroom in London. The dealer I bought it from in 2010 for £4999 agreed to take it back and sell it on for me. Anyway I was getting fed up that it was not selling, so I offered it to member here for £2000 + two or three hundred quid extra. He changed his mind and decided to quote his words that the car 'was too rich for him'. He will remain anonymous.

To cut a long story short it has just been sold for

£3299 :}

Now I can concentrate on LJW :drool4:

excellent news and progress indeed :D

Welcome to the Chill Out Zone Mr Gatekeeper! That's a really good result with the sale of your old car! So what plans do you have for LJW?:)

Pass me a slack handful of ready salted crisps there's a good chap:}

golden wonder or walkers :shrug::D

Oh didn't realise we had so much choice......................dont suppose there's a canny bag of Tudor?

flippin heck they went out of business years ago , never a fav of mine , highlanders crisps were rank also .

:D:D I didn't mind Highlanders but the brown sauce flavour were terrible

I can recommend SEABROOKE crinkle cut , i will tell leopard to order up a couple of boxes :D

I have the munchies tonight , had a huge spag bol and just munched 3 crackers with peanut butter and jam :D

Great film on at half eleven THE FOG by john carpenter , JAWS is on at 9 but ive seen it over ten times :D

Just had Roast Gammon with corn on the cob & those crispy coated sliced potato thingies followed by apple crumble & custard:drool4::drool4::drool4: still peckish though:D

guessing from that you are at the aged Ps:D

Aye:D usually come here on a Tuesday

Well i think i will kick off the evening with a nice malt on ice :drool4:

Put plenty butter on:drool4: oh malt! not malt loaf:getmecoat:

Ive recently rediscovered something from my childhood []Fruit loaf toasted with butter]:drool4:

I.m gonna put my weight back on if this keeps up :getmecoat:

Evening all! How is everyone?:D

Speaking for myself i is ok stu :D

Watching liverpool tank chelsea

Quite canny thanks & how's you?

I have got to make a chicken cassoral tonight. I am having trouble getting round to it but it must be done!
Perhaps another larger with a splash of bitter lemon:drool4:

Great stuff! Very busy here tonight isn't it!:D

All good thanks Colin! Just tired though; day six out of seven! Long weekend coming though!:D

Enjoy! Sounds nice!:D:drool4:

Home made Jerk chicken and London Pride wot I got earlier. Enjoyed that...

Pays the bills Stu, pays the bills;)

i made jerk chicken a week back , i bought the sauce from an ethnic shop thinking it was fairly mild , it set our mouths on fire , i dolloped it on but i think its just meant to be a little smear on :getmecoat::getmecoat::D

Hi Mr Greendriver, and welcome to the COZ! :D

aaaaaaaaaaaah :}

with any luck by the time I'm finished this leather seat will fit me just nicely,

*wriggle*

Howdy, nice & cosy in here.

Hi All,
Just had a lovely southern comfort and lemonade and enjoyed it so much I might just have another one, cheers all:wine:

I am looking forward to taking it up north in September to see friends and family who live in north Wales, Liverpool and the I-O-M and to take LJ to the meet in the Lake District. Apart from that, just to keep it going is all that I want and have planned. I have simple desires for her :}

Ahhh! Mr. Leopard I want to ask you a question?

What is the story behind the photograph in your signature? ;)

:D:drool4: Welcome back! Tayto crisps? I'll have to check out back! All this talk about food eh! Next available weekend off I'm making a Provencal Stew!

Nice bottle of Aspall's Draught on ice here:drool4::drool4::drool4::drool4:
