We went to Hastings once and never again, shit hole. Go to Rye, it's beautiful and nearby Camber Sands has a great beach

In hindsight, I wish I had done so.. Mind you, remote locking device on the keyring may have been a giveaway..

I heard from the police today that there was another attempted theft of a new Freelander sround Wood Vale area. Again, it would appear that the thieves were trying to break into the owner's house to get keys. Again, please be mindful and don't leave keys anywhere in sight. We need to be vigilant and catch these criminals. I have always been complacent about such things until now but not anymore.... Total lockdown!

A sheep is a sheep.

It's a good job I have a twisted sense of humour...! That really did make me larf..! Keep it coming Nettie.

Isn't that a burglary?

Lol

Shall we pretend we're poor dahling?

So I turned up to this client today to do a job and since getting the job I had cancelled others and am very busy anyway with other things. And she had forgotten I was coming and was not ready. Rosie, I just re-read your opening pist and I have a question for you: When you say she wasn't ready, what do you mean exactly? Was she still alive? Given your alleged line of work, it's a fair question...

Isn't organised religion just great...!

Is there a specific time limit on recent converts he says whilst rumaging through Granny's heirloom box for those ivory rosary beads and that must-have cross...

How does one deal with overgrown bushes round the back? Wet n, wild or chainsaw trim?

Thanks guys.. Especially the e-drink, well-received.. I have lived here for about 8 years and this is my first double whammy sting so I guess you could say that, as far as averages go, I haven't been that unlucky. We are having digital cctv installed very soon.

Well put, SJ..

Following on from the attempted break in to our home a few night ago, we discovered yesterday during the day at some point, that our old car had mysteriously vanished from outside the house. It is a dark green Freelander (Land Rover) number plate GV02 FHW. Please if you see this car around pls report it to the police immediately or let me know where you have seen it. I very much doubt it will be close by but you never know. The police think whoever broke in may have taken keys and come back yesterday to recover their prize :( They are now treating the break-in as a serious crime and have assigned a team to the case so here's hoping they do a good job. Again, be on your guard. There is a meeting at Harris Girls Academy at 7 pm this evening to discuss the recent spate of events, if you can, pls join as next time it could be someone else.

Name and shame I say....

You guys crack me up.. Here I was having a very dullard day at work but not any more.. Are we to assume the lack of interaction from the original poster is significant? Please come back and play with us..

Teesaw hangs up her Forumite white coat, makes an appointment at Foxtons to go buy in West Dulwich where the Forum is a lot more straightforward and where lunacy rates per square mile are far lower than in neighbouring ED. Can a hedge ever be a bush and vice versa? Hmmmmm, puzzle.

Group hug anyone?

I am having an extension done soonish so I should be telling you not to worry about it( just in case you happen to be a neighbour). Several thingsto consider: Have they applied for planning permission? Has it been approved? Do they have a decent architect who knows his stuff and who should do some kind of impact study? How deep are the foundations being dug? Subsidence risk etc.. Actually, I recommend you go chat to your neighbour and look at the plans together..

Tis true, not sure if you would have remembered my Gana-rant.

MP, I hated Ganapati. The worst curry I have had in London.

Poor Fazer, in amongst the shower of bullets there are some nuggets of good advice there, the main one being you have made and defended your point repeatedly, time to move on. Pkease feel free to comment on any of my million threads,I welcome a fiery spirit. It's all a learning curve, those long-timers tend to be harsh on us newbies, it's all part of the etiquette training..

Thanks, I must rush back tgere tomorrow for my 9th visit with my 7 children for some bubble n' squeak pizza.

Do you think they sell this at Rocca? I haven't seen any mention of it yet but confident it will pop up at some point..
