Just stumbled across this right now on YT. Jim's only 32 - that's what the fags and whisky does to you! "Off to see the widow of an old friend" - to spread his wild Scottish oats!

I will be happy to tell you about a cool and very high quality service, using which I found out how to get a Swiss AG quickly and easily in the UK - https://swіsscompanyformation.com/articles/blog/unlocking-the-benefits-of-swiss-ag-your-guide-to-establishing-a-swiss-joint-stock-company/ . So if you also want to start your own business in Switzerland, then this site has a lot of information about it!

TY for sharing!!!

I got sent this by my mate, fryingpan Dave just the other day. We used to hold the Fox & Badger challenge each year near Bath where you get shitfaced and have to try and ride back 8 miles. Jim would have taken the cup, no issues.

I once visited the St Sixtus monastery in Flanders with my best beer drinking mate. We decided that we should hire some bikes to go drinking the famous Westvleteren beer (thought by many to be the best beer in the world) it is only available at the monastery and you are only allowed to buy 12 bottles to take away with you.
So we took backpacks and loaded up with our 12 bottles but of course stayed for a few beers while we were there. At 12 percent this was no weak lager, it was delicious and very moreish.
For some reason the bikes, that had been perfectly well behaved on the way there, had taken on a life of their own on the return journey and I ended up on my back in a field of poppies, staring at the sky, thinking that there's some corner of a foreign field, that might be forever England if I couldn't get back on that crazy bike!

That's the stuff of dreams. You've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Gauloises on fire off the shoulder of a frenchmans onions. You watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like beer down the drain. Time to fry.

Yup I think I was right by the Tanhauser Gate at the time.
