I use a similar @ - please find me.

@maitrayee_rc @LearNonsense @DrAnindyaR @sgsah @staenglish Well done you! 👏

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@miffythegamer This. Minority opinion, but this nonetheless.

@RichardAngwin I would try to save his life.
I detest the man and everything he stands for. I detest his barely-articulate lies. I detest his being a predator.
But the decent thing to do is to give him a plain lesson in how a human being should behave.
BIG piece of my mind afterwards!

@PulpLibrarian No thanks. When it comes to a Benelli, I'd rather have the Benelli Sei - a screaming, six-cylinder, 740cc, road-missile.

@PulpLibrarian 2/2
... which even had a kind of Paris-Dakar version called (I think) the Vision CE.

Then there was the BMW C1 scooter...

@deredordica @PulpLibrarian Only if you forget to put your feet down.

@CookinAsia @msjanebond007 @PulpLibrarian mmmnnnn... to me the Scimitar was just a car. 🙂

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@CookinAsia @PulpLibrarian Ah, but then there was the Bond Bug!

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@PeteSamuels5 @PulpLibrarian I'm reminded of my pal's Reliant Supervan, into which he had put a tuned 850cc Robin engine. The speedo indicated up to 90mph and then there was a stop. At the stop the car would still be accelerating! Oh, the double-takes we got as we overtook cars on the M62! 🤣

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@omd_tim @PulpLibrarian Villiers rather than BSA.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@PulpLibrarian The engine was a Villiers 2-stroke motorcycle engine. In some earlier Bond models you actually had to open the bonnet, put your foot inside, and use a kick-starter.

@is_glasgow I recall sitting on the banks of Strangford Lough, near Whiterock, having a picnic in a drumlin landscape, watching swans on the water as the daylight faded.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

@UndisScot Och, it's a broch!
I'll have sixpence on it being Mousa.

[Paul Thompson @DocPaperback]

I'm trying to find the title of a science fiction story where a human undertakes an experiment to inhabit the mind of a fish.
Ring a bell with anyone?

@NadiaWhittomeMP She simply did not answer the question!

@becimay This is why I consider Julius Caesar to be his greatest play. It is about the lack of political legitimacy, from beginning to end. An incredibly dangerous theme for late Tudor England.

@PompeySteph @RebeccaMKBull Gender criticals have called for lying to the police whenever they see a trans woman in a toilet - called for getting together and accusing her of an assault. GCs have called for the eradication of trans people from society.
Singalongs and petitions my fat foot and mustard on it!

@ScotAirAmb Definitely a Hillfoot town. It's Menstrie. 3/5 the way up the photo are the Diageo warehouses, and a bit further up to the right HMP Glenochil. We used to go past the warehouses, and sometimes past the prison, to visit my daughter, when she lived in Tullibody.

@windupgemma You notice of course that they throw bi under the bus.
