Jockstar Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I worked in Taunton for a few weeks and lived in a caravan there with my mate. Also stayed in Midsummer Norton and worked in Paulton. This was about 1995. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtoad Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I like Doc Martin Martin Clunes plays the part brilliantly, he's really funny,and the scenery is very beautiful there. The FAT bloke makes me larf too I met two blokes from Bodmin on Sunday, Argyle supporters! (football related ) Bodmin, the murder capital of England . That my old patch for work, Bodmin/ North Cornwall. Agreed Port Issac, where Doc Martin is filmed is a really beautiful spot, in fact I think the North Cornish Coast all the way along is trul spectacular, other than Newquay. Jock Star, Midsomer Norton/Paulton, thats deep in Wurzle country. Spent a fair bit of time in and around that area, like Shepton, Bruton, Wells, Frome etc...when I was working in Bristol.

Duelling Banjo's springs to mind Oh no, in that neck of the woods, they are more into "Family games". That reminds me of the joke about the Redneck wedding night:- This redneck couple get married. They go back to the motel after the ceremony, and she changes into a sexy nightgown, lies on the bed, and says, "Be gentle with me; I'm a virgin." At this her new husband bursts into tears, pulls on his clothes, jumps into his pickup truck, and drives home. He tells his father what happened. "Son, you done right," says his pop. "If she weren't good enough for her own family, she ain't good enough for ours." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) I always thought it was Bristol wher they were into family related fun......but the it all eminates from SWINDON: I've got famiily in Bridgewater...never been there though. They are more than likely a very large family these days, I have so many cousins there I can't keep count!! JS did you see Cheif Inspector Barnaby or Sgt Troy while you were in Midsommer Norton?

No didn't see any of them in bloody MSN. I still think that Barnaby is Bergerac, thats what he'always be as far as I'm concerned. Plus John Nettles, he's from Cornwall, so he is automatically a top bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
