My dad opened the newsagents on Merkins in 1968, my brother has it now. I've spent many a day behind the counter though not for nearly 30 years.
Is that the one in the middle of the row that got a post office built into it a couple of years back? If so I go In there to post stuff fairly regular

That's the one

Not that I'm aware of mate, although I tend not to notice the names when I go into them.
I'm like that too, as long as I can reach the bike magazines, I'm good

Keep seeing a black street fightered boxeye heading into London on the A4 at around 6.45am. He has "I love MILFS" written down the side of his tank :lol . Keep forgetting to ask if he's a foccer.
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
Spotted a silver 1000 on my driveway :eek looked awesome ;-)
Was jealous as hell, but it was mickvp's as he was over with his carbtune to do my carbs.
Excellent job done, even if we thought we hadn't turned the fuel back on :lol
and great to meet you Mick, enjoy your drink mate
