In the Lake District they have stunning ales- Coniston blue bird -Black sheep to name 2.
Im past going out t get legless really, now a days its drink good stuff ( ales) till 12 /pubs shut. Clubs are bad they sell nothing but shite!
I drink to be merry but the taste is a big factor - were lucky to have so many awarded ales.
Did they ever find Campbell's body in Coniston Water after he crashed Blue bird?

Yes they did find the body though the family and people were split as to weather to keep the body at the bottom of the lake ( as some said that's were he would of wanted to be laid to rest) or bring it ashore and hold a proper funeral.
God rest his sole.
By the way thiers many a body found in thier it really is scary i often went swimming in their in the last 3/4 months- since then 4 bodys have been found i believe :shock: 1 recent others 10/20yrs old.
Cant imagine how many others are down thier.
Anyways yea they did find the body.

Better watch they don't grab your ankles drag you down to the mirky depths Colzi! :shock:
Thanks for looking that up. I didn't know they'd found him at last. Wow.
I learn something new here every day, which is one of the reasons I can't seem to stay away.
A little pic is an Avatar. A "suplex" is a wrestling move. Ace's girlfriend can't sleep without him (made me a little jealous - I've never felt like that), You should drink water if your doing X. You guys love "the Buck" for some reason. (and let's not forget definition of bukake). It's just endless fascinating information! :lol: |

Holy crap is right Ace. Fun times came to a SCREECHING halt when she was born, as it should be of course. Luckily it seems the only competition you have is that ugly dog. :D |

Age by years is irrelevant....it is Experience that matures a person.
I feel much younger than I look....in fact, I really did not know what I looked like until I recently installed a large wall mirror. :shock: :shock:
I guess it is pretty bad when you do not recognise the person walking past in the mirror....off to the GYM for DAILY workouts again!
Now that the ol' lady and I are apart....I can start eating right and less! |

My apologies :lol:
It's quite scary really to think that we keep dipping into a lake that people keep dying in. But then, every time you walk anywhere there's probably the remains of someone under there somewhere... |

You are a MINE of information Colzi, thank you. Yes that's the one, but I only read about it recently. I'm waiting for someone to get charged with the Renee MacRae murders in Inverness. We all know who did it is of course. His wife covered for him all these years I do believe. |

CONISTON BLUE BIRD COMING HOME !
Museum hopes to house Bluebird
Published on 07/12/2006
SPEED hero Donald Campbells daughter was today due to announce that she is giving his jet powered boat Bluebird to Conistons Ruskin Museum.
Campbell was killed when Bluebird K7 flipped over and crashed as he tried to break his own world water speed record on Coniston Water in January 1967.
Gina Campbell was due to reveal plans for the future of the wrecked craft at a press conference at the Ruskin Museum, in Coniston, this afternoon.
The Evening Mail understands Ms Campbell was to announce she is giving the craft to the Ruskin Museum on behalf of the Campbell family.
Bluebird was raised from the depths of Coniston in 2001 and Campbell's remains were discovered later that year and buried in the village.
The wreckage is currently in the South Shields workshop of Bill Smith, the underwater surveyor and amateur diver who discovered the wreck.
Efforts to restore Bluebird to full working order and put it on display in a local museum have been unsuccessful.
The scheme was refused funding by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Ms Campbell has previously threatened to sell the damaged craft on ebay or dump it back in Coniston Water if no money was made available to fully restore her fathers boat.
Todays announcement will be welcomed by Campbell enthusiasts looking forward to seeing a partially restored Bluebird in the museum.
During its 34 years underwater, the boat's jet engines were ruined but its frame was reasonably preserved.
An appeal fund is going to be launched by the Ruskin Museum which needs to raise £750,000 to build an extension to display the restored Bluebird along with an interpretative display telling the story of the world water speed record attempts.
