Lesley Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 So what do you suggest Cagey? An entrance exam? An entry fee? A sponsor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Village Idiot Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 As every problem nowadays can be solved with a tax, I think an entrance tax should suffice. I would be very fair and even handed about it, very short people would be the third highest shed taxpayers (they deserve to be treated like that as they are in a small minority ), people with beards and clams would be the second highest shed taxpayers (it's only decent to tax these things as they are hideous to look at) and finally the top rate tax would be reserved for anyone who is Welsh and shags sheep - nuff said I think 😶🌫️ Of course handsome, intelligent English people like me are tax exempt 'cos you all need us to make things work Dicks 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I think they should be honorary members - the tricycle will have to stay outside, where it can be used by all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyH Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 The english who shag sheep should be hung, drawn, shot and minced for taking the job away from the Welsh. It's because of people like you the Welsh always burn holiday cottages. Taffybach boyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongy Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The answer is cauliflower cheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La vache espagnole Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Which is very strange, as the question was "Where do you park the tricycle?" [pedant mode] 'tis in fact a tandem bicycle for three and not a tricycle... the shocking standard of eddukayshun these days, tut, tut [/pm] nothing...

Lesley Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 If you park your tandem (or whatever) in cauliflower cheese do you leave chunks on the road when you ride off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CageyH Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Surely a tandem is for two people? For three it would be a trandem???? What is the name of the Goodies bike? The Goodies three-seater bike is called the trandem (a traditional two-seater bike is a tandem). In the episode The Goodies and the Beanstalk Graeme announces they must sell their most valuable possession, the trandem; Bill protests about selling "Buttercup". This joke refers to the selling of the family cow from Jack & the Beanstalk; it is the only instance of the bike being called by this name by the Goodies. There were actually three versions of the bike: a modified two-seater used in the first series of The Goodies, a red three-seater used for the remainder of their BBC run (series 2-8), and a blue three-seater used for the LWT episodes (series 9).

Lesley Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 It would be interesting to see it doing a slalom course ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Village Idiot Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Wouldn't that be hard to do, you know a bike on skis steering around all those funny bendy gate things they put out on the mountainside to make a slalom course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I was thinking that the length of it would make going round corners, well, interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La vache espagnole Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 In that case this one would be more interesting still... The Goodies' bike was called the trandem*, I suppose I should have looked that up before getting pedantic... * Etymologically-speaking... tandem comes from a Latin word meaning "lengthwise" and the word does not imply "two". Originally applied to draught animals it could mean any number of animals hitched together line astern to pull a load. The made-up word "trandem" is however a good deal snappier than "three-seater tandem". (edit, edit, edit... pesky fingers not obeying orders ) nothing...

CageyH Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I seem to remember seeing a giant tricycle in the dim and disatant past on TV somewhere. It was something like this here, but older. Only dead fish go with the flow....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
