The OP was very careful in his or her wording. If I had children young enough to go to playgrounds I would be glad of a heads up. To suggest calling 999 is ridiculous. ETA: And the man in question has not been named or otherwise identified on here.

Great idea! I was thinking along those lines for Christmas carols!

Goodness, your mum was lucky. Interested to hear about your friend. Did they continue with one juror missing?

Could you say a bit more about this, please? Are you connected to the restaurant business, and if so in what way?

My ex used to ask them in, make them tea, then ask them a load of questions they were totally unable to answer. Teddyboy23 😂😂😂

Thank you JohnL, hadn't yet heard. A few rays of light in the darkness lately ☀️☀️☀️

Places where they can perch I think, plus a few large saucers of water. And quite a lot of cover from climbers.

I phoned, luckily got through easily. They don't text, it's a scam. Phew. I will leave this here in case anyone gets the same text. ETA: In some ways I would like to do jury service, but I have a horrible feeling the other jurors would drive me slowly even more insane than I already am. And if it was a distressing case it would really upset me.

The text says they have already written (supposedly) and I haven't replied (supposedly).

I've just received a text saying I was summoned to jury service by post but I haven't replied, and to avoid a fine, confirm attendance or otherwise by clicking on a link. I'm assuming this is a scam. I've googled but the only jury service text scam I've found is something similar, but not the same, from September. The link looks authentic, but obviously it would, and I haven't clicked on it. I'm assuming it would go to a genuine looking website. Has anyone else received anything similar? Would the actual jury organising people use texts? I did have an initial moment of panic, I must confess!

This was some time ago. There's another thread on here. Have the police only just released detailed descriptions of the suspects?

Thank you for making people aware, Skin_deep.

Actually ms9's private message to me was not a reply to hirstian sent to me in error, but thanks for your interest 🙄

Assuming of course that your post is serious, which I'm guessing it probably isn't.

Some people who have Long Covid smell weird things, including burning.

That link needs you to sign in. Could you post the info directly on here, please? Particularly price per knife? Thanks!

ms9 I was a bit bemused by your private message, as I don't live on your road! I did reply to it but you haven't read my reply, so I'm deleting both messages as I need the space!

Just tell the bus driver you are waiting for a replacement, and in my experience they will let you on without a pass. Mine once got mangled because I kept it in my back jeans pocket and sat on it once too often. Helps if you look the right age, of course 🤣

I still have a flock of up to thirty sparrows coming to my bird feeders. And an occasional robin (usually on the ground).
