Podcast 73 - A dog, a Jazz, and a spooky coincidence
Added 2021-09-05 18:01:01 +0000 UTCJonny tells a story about being a good samaritan that takes an unexpected live action turn. Also in this episode, using the word village for other things, the size of old car keys, making up lies about places, the arrival of a baby tortoise, cats suffering front wheel lock-up, diagonal walking into a Korean restaurant disaster, a mysterious blue Lotus Carlton, enjoying turbo lag, and conversational ticks (and all that, basically, on that side of things).

2021-09-07 15:55:51 +0000 UTCJonny is right, Lacock is where Fox Talbot (two car names man) invented photography. A “beefy eggo” is a type of fart according to the reference book, i.e. the Profanisaurus.

2021-09-07 11:39:54 +0000 UTCThis is exactly right. Has even made it into cricket circles in Australia at times, despite it not making any sense here.

2021-09-07 00:04:47 +0000 UTCI think the slang is not “Dench” it’s “hench” https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Hench

2021-09-06 15:24:38 +0000 UTCOn the merch side of things (thx for the tshirt and sticker, and is that thankyou card hand-signed?) you absolutely need a sticker for those in the know, but sadly the current sticker is too big to be able to be attached to my car anywhere and not look out of place. A smaller sticker, preferably adhesive so it can be attached on the inside rather than the exterior, would be great.

2021-09-06 15:13:00 +0000 UTCIt’s a high bar anyway, but this is the best one so far, and I think I include all but one of the vids in that, as well as the “clackerbag” episode.

2021-09-06 06:07:29 +0000 UTCWhen I was at college (studying agriculture) in Norfolk We had a lad there with us that used to say ‘not four bad’ un ironically whenever someone enquired to how he was doing

2021-09-06 06:02:18 +0000 UTCWe saw some early production Mach-Es with 12V battery issues at the Ford store I work at which is near Ford Canada HQ.

2021-09-05 23:48:46 +0000 UTCTeslas don’t charge their 12V batteries while parked and not plugged in, so ironically they would not be ok if left for 6 months.

2021-09-05 22:26:40 +0000 UTCWhenever someone says that, you want to asking them if they are lying the rest of the time when they don't preface a statement with it!

2021-09-05 22:03:50 +0000 UTCI noticed recently that my mum has a verbal tick - "And this, that, and the other." e.g. I told my friend what I had for dinner, and this, that, and the other.

2021-09-05 20:34:34 +0000 UTCTo be perfectly honest I knew a bloke who said 'to be perfectly honest' all the time, to be perfectly honest. Still, better than 'not three bad' man to be perfectly honest. Just realised I worked with them both at the same time. What fun.

2021-09-05 20:08:29 +0000 UTCI'm surprised talk of strangely named villages didn't lead to the return of the South African Wendens Ambo and his friends Bussnuss Interests and Anal Conway. (One of my very favourite S&S videos along with Ken Bruce's Shotmaster)
Peter Norrish
2021-09-05 19:59:21 +0000 UTCTonight in session, "Dirty Mango", and then three tracks from Grey Tangerine.
Peter Heamon
2021-09-05 19:44:40 +0000 UTCI suppose this isn't surprising in this community but I'm 31, my first car was a 1977 Land Rover and not only did I have to bump start it but I had (and used) a starting handle. I also went through a phase of having to go underneath and put a jumper from the battery straight to the starter motor when the starter solenoid packed in. Looking forward to seeing you both next weekend, as you'll see I haven't learnt my lesson.

2021-09-05 19:06:52 +0000 UTCWe often refer to a friend of ours by the nickname ‘village’. Short for ‘village idiot’.
Grant Browning
2021-09-05 18:26:47 +0000 UTCPotentially, village as in village standards of cricket. I.e. not a very good standard. I've heard it being called that in Cambridgeshire.
