And your Ken Dodd picture makes me chuckle every time. I had a beer with him once. He was an absolute gentleman.
Facebook may well die off at some point , social media platforms only seem to last so long and no one under 20 will touch it now ( I appreciate this is a generalisation ).
"When I lived next to the pub I did some historical research in the days b4 internet. I went and looked at the microfiches and tithe records at Surrey CC HQ in Kingston. This and trades people that came to cottage who were old locals who had old docs too and between these and old files I unearthed in Farnham Library, I managed to deduce: The current 'Cricketers Pub was built in early 1900s on the site of an older pub named the Sir William Cowdry - a prominent cricketer of the earlier era and hence the 'new' pub named 'The Cricketers'. In the pub complex was a wheelwright's shop and dairy (the old out buildings that also housed Folly Patterns!). The 4 cottages adjacent were built on common scrub around 1820 and provided small holdings for market garden and pig produce and at some point partly turned over to Hops. The once Hoover shop on end - now sports shop - was a butchers and slaughter house for the pigs. In fact when I arrived it was a small grocery/convenience shop and the hanging slaughter hooks still existed in the back of the shop. There are indeed springs at the back of Pub/Bethel Close and the old lady who sold us our cottage retained half the land to build a little bungalow in (roof of which can be seen below pics). She contained one open spring to provide a large fish pond.. The land behind old pub was very boggy but was a nice wild area to have as being located directly onto the bustling U H Rd (!), you had this magical calm oasis at the back of you"

I felt I just had to tell the FBook Musicians Buying and Selling community about this!!

Think yourselves lucky they've never managed to get polls working here. I'd be asking everything from how many sugars do you take in your brew to what percentage of farts you do are safe in a lift.
Talking of farts - I like the ones where you're convinced it's safe to squeeze a small one out and it turns out to be nerve-gas.
I've sometimes let one of those go and a couple of seconds later, someone has needed to bend down to get something off a shelf and they lower their face straight into the noxious cloud. What do you do ? Do you run ? Do you apologise ? One of life's dilemmas that needs answering.

Came back 15minutes later and they were all still gagging and one of them had to leave the room.
Mission accomplished!

The drivel I hate online is the "One simple change turned me from a 500lb land whale into Adonis' better looking brother, click this obviously crap link to find out more" or "toast actually cures cancel, we have proof, but science doesn't like it"
Basically the constant stream of unmitigated and total bullshit that all the crystal rubbing morons I know lap up like its written by god... or Stephen Hawkins or the god-of-Stephen-Hawkinses
The gullible fuckers on Facebook not only lap up all the ridiculous non-sense but then they share it with my bloody feed... I thought the last culling of idiots on facebook was enough, but seem there are still more
@axisus , please feel free to open up on your FB friend as you are perfectly correct.
No, you should stop.
I didn't hang around to see the aftermath.
