I cycled up the cat and fiddle this year, but didn’t see a panel ;D. Also arrived at the top 2 minutes after the pub closed. :'(

Depends what you mean by good. Those are the ones I’m about to do chemistry on. When warm they are as compliant as a 6 penny whore (can I say that on here?). When cold penetration is an issue and lubing doesn’t help.

Anyway, experiment commences following delivery of wintergreen and alcohol.

Apologies if my base humour has offended anybody.

Your base humour made me laugh out loud, that, I felt, was a very good way of describing the issue in hand 🤣🤣🤣

 ;D Quite possibly.

I claim no originality. It’s a quote from “Mayhem in Mayfair quartet” by Grace Callaway.

Quite a steamy tome y all accounts. ;)

By the way it’s “Six-penny”. My error.
