hippies at Cookham

You need to be careful though, cos' it's often said that hippies are capitalisms storm troopers. Before you know where you are they'll be selling tie dye shirts, incense, dodgy art from thailand made from mangrove roots, and suddenly Runnymede meadows will be awash with sky scrapers and internet businesses. (now where is that irony smiley gone :) )
 
I've got a load of tie dye t shirts in red and White they look just like the lock life rings, do you think I should start flogin' them to raise fund for the EA? Comments please!

I think it's one of those birds you see in a supermarket with extra bits sticking out of the top of their jeans!?
 
"Did 'Jesus' the leader of the Christian society that the majority of the civilised western world have based there values on not have long hair"

There absolutely no evidence of such a person ever existing let alone having long hair,I believe however there is lots of proof on the interweb that the opposition did sport a nice set of hooves and a very fetching set of horns.
Rumour has it he went rowing on the Thames for a hobby :)

No evidence ?

There was a big long book written about him !

Nope! Old Testament is pre Jesus and Jewish. New Testament written mainly by people that never knew him. Certainly Paul never knew him as he was born 50 years after Jesus died. Having said all that, he did exist but was just another Holy Man similar to the many that wander around India today. His allegiance was to his Cousin John the Baptist.
Ooops! Started something now.
 
As the person who started the long hair thing am I entitled to ask that religion isn't discussed here? I don't care about the religious discussion but would hate to see Thames forum folk fall out.

GOT THE HORN! Tomorrow I fit the 12V chrome horn to Moxon which I've had for >1 year. Plus a home made box thing which will enable the plugging in of 12V devices below without having to put a wire through the louvre (sp?) in the cabin door. Luxury here we come.

I knew there'd be someone who was there to witness it first hand who would correct me.
