  1. Typically wooly-minded slogan on the old devils frying-pan there. I much prefer a good Woody.

     

    By the way, did you know that a definition of a true gentleman is one who knows how to play the banjo, but doesn't.

  2. Quite big as in memory?

     

    just lower the resolution using your picture editing program.

    The new owners turned out not to be as bad as the rumours suggested. I will have a job for at least 3 years. Hopefully I won't still need it by then...

    I was there last week as well. Could have done a bit of Dodd/deathlist poking.

    Talking to a local up there, (yes these West Cumbrians are a friendly sort, some even speak surprisingly good English) it appears that despite Ulverston selling itself as the birthplace of Stan Laurel with a museum and now this statue, he only actually lived in the town for the grand total of 12 days

    L & H statue unveiled in Ulverston. Ken Dodd was on hand to do some dusting, but his father's pooch was a no-show.

    Absolutely NO prizes for guessing who will be rolling down a fell somewhere in The Lake District this year...Photos to follow.
