Silly question I know, but WTF is an eyelash lift? Don't you use those eyelash curler things that look like medieval instruments of torture? And then shove on some mascara?

The first time I went, early eighties I think, you could camp in front of the pyramid stage, and at night it was amazing, like a medieval village. The second time there were rows of tables openly selling drugs. Fine if you are happy to run a gauntlet of drug sellers on your way to somewhere else. Not if you aren't. The third time there was a lot of mud and my then partner had his boots nicked and refused to come out of the tent 🤣 Haven't been since and don't think I'd like it, but then it's not really there for people in their seventies, is it? AAARRRGGH

My road has one. A resident started it during lockdown. You can always knock on doors or put notes through doors on your own road and ask if people would be interested in having a road WhatsApp group. Then if there isn't one, you could start one yourself!

Yes, I agree!

Do you have a menu you can share on here? It will be great to have something a bit different which is nearer than Ganapati!

Why on earth is it taking five months???

I still use Twitter to promote our gigs (@thegooseisout) but I never use it for anything else unless I hear there's an interesting (to me) thread on there.

Might not have been a fox. Could have been a gang of snails 😂

There are a load in Ulverscroft Road as well, with no indication as to why they are there!

EDT?

How do you know it was the same jay? 😀

I can also recommend Tommy Rooney.

When I lived out of London I had a family of woodpeckers visit the bird feeders, even though the house backed onto a wooded area where presumably they had access to more "natural" food. I used to have loads of starlings come to my present garden. However after one was carried off in great distress by a bird of prey, I never saw another starling. Weird.

Good luck! I read the other day that some chef or other is cooking it and serving it to customers 😁

Why don't you just go and talk to him about it?

Surely it just needed a bucket of water? Assuming there was nothing burning which would have been made worse by water?

Yes there is a local pub which has this, but I can't remember which one either! 0% Guinness is brilliant. It actually tastes like the real thing 👍

I'm a bit confused by all this. I'm with Plusnet, and to the best of my knowledge I have had fibre for ages. Am I missing something here? ETA: Sorry, as you were. Apparently I can upgrade to a different kind of fibre. Duh 🙄

Forest always seemed very cramped, so it will be great for them to have more space.

I went into Poundland just to see if anything had changed since it opened. It struck me that quite a few of the things they are selling can actually be bought a lot cheaper elsewhere, eg tea lights, so I'm unclear quite what is the point. I did buy a bright yellow dustpan and brush for £1.25. Bargain (if it doesn't disintegrate the first time I use it 🤣)

Yes, that sounds right 👍

You could try Argos at the big Sainsbury's. They will take electronic stuff for recycling even if you haven't bought it there, but I don't know about electrical things. You could try phoning them?
