One can only theorise about the names of these schools and pubs.Nobber village has both a primary and secondary school, shops, pubs and clubs.
Personally I liked the reference to a "regular bus service". Given what i know about bus schedules in the back of beyond, one bus a day in each direction could be described as "regular".stevensfo wrote:Clitheroekid wrote:I can imagine it being a bit embarrassing giving this address to people![]()

You're optimistic! Regular probably means one every market dayLootman wrote:Personally I liked the reference to a "regular bus service". Given what i know about bus schedules in the back of beyond, one bus a day in each direction could be described as "regular".
Indeed. One of Somerset's better schools, apparently. https://tinyurl.com/2p9a2ccbstevensfo wrote:One can only theorise about the names of these schools and pubs. 8-

Not only that, it's a boarding school!! With a name like that, I assume that they vet applicants for PE teachers very carefully indeed!bungeejumper wrote:Indeed.

.......whare quite often the PE teacher is actually the local vet.
Actually, after my remark about a PE teacher, I just scrolled down the page and they actually do have a vacancy Teacher for PE (Girls).bungeejumper wrote:Indeed.

I had an Uncle who served in the HLI (Highland Light Infantry) during WW2. While training in England, there was a fair amount of temporary "absent without leave" - usually an unauthorised trip back to Glasgow for the weekend. So they sorted this out in my Uncle's unit - they were packed off to Shetland, until they were needed for D-Day.stevensfo wrote:

Go a bit further and you get to the Faroes. Amazing where the Vikings used to drop off stowaways, Faroes, Greenland, North America....

What a brilliant bit of marketing. I mean, who in their right mind is not going to fork out thirty quid for a "Lifetime Member of the Muff Diving Club" certificate / tee shirt, which they can proudly hang on their wall or other appendage for all to see?servodude wrote:https://www.muffdivingclub.ie/
