BABY LOVE

Today i bought a copy of Performance Blokes to read about Sams' Blown TL1000. Brilliant feature written by Gary Inman (Sideblog/Sideburn), you are right Gary "Britains' got Talent" is looking the wrong way. See more of Sams bike on here, press the Motor Sport tag.






Why are jelly babies covered in dust nowadays ?

Following the first world war they were called "peace babies" but the name changed in 1953...the white dust is fine cornstarch to stop them sticking..A make over in 1989 each baby got a name.Three million jelly babies are eaten in this country every week..!! And i only know this 'cause i've just read Nigel Slaters EATING FOR ENGLAND, But you probably knew all this anyway..haha ;)

Should have done the swap with the shovel Pete you would have had a chance to do your own. Cracking bit of engineering to say the least

Three million and twenty (ish) this week then, i havent had one for years, sadly all gone now and i never knew their names..
I could buy a 100 TL1000s Kev but i could never built one like that.

Some of mine seem to be crying, is that a new thing ? or is it just that he thinks the bike is going to hit the bin wagon ?

I dont have a racists bone in me, but when I was 4, my Mum would walk me across Hungerford bridge over the Thames in London, there were these jelly baby sized holes (for drainage I suppose in retrospect) every twenty feet. All my blacky babies were dispatched en-route without further ado.
