If a couple of dumb-dumbs can request listing status for this local eyesore:

plymouth_civic_centre_270.jpg

Then I propose we request the same protection for our much loved smilie heritage before they are lost forever!!!

Want to lose these? icon_smile.gificon_smile_blackeye.gificon_smile_tongue.gificon_smile_8ball.gif Then ACT NOW!!!!

    I agree- please bring back the real smilies! How can we possibly discuss the traditional Cakestop subjects without the lecherous green smilie?

    I've started a thread in C+ office for things that need sorting out. If enough people post there, something might get done.

    FSA (Full Speed Ahead) are a component maufacturer, the teeth on their chainrings are reputed to be extremely sharp.

    Rob,
    Yes I've been bitten by my Campag chainset so I know how sharp they are but I understand FSA are pretty lethal - just right for wrist slitting etc...

    You're welcome Chris. Perhaps I should take a look over the fence and see what your up to .
    'Do you have any loose threads like 'Girls in Lycra Shorts' or 'Thinking Man's Crumpet' that have mistakenly shown up on your patch by any chance? They seem to have disappeared from here in the move.

    Just find and use your own version. Look, it's the old grin, but it moves!
