Just to even things up a bit... I saw a guy on a cycle tonight with 2 flashing lights at the front plus one on his head and 2 either side of his rear wheels and another on the back of his head. Looked like a mobile disco but 10 out of 10 for being seen by other road users.
Happened to me at my ex-wifes house (ex-marital home) with a ?600 laptop from Very.co.uk. Spoke to their fraud department and they said that someone waits outside the address and as soon as the goods are delivered knocks on the door with a clipboard and a bunch of fake delivery notes, spins a story about how they know it is a fraud and take it back off you, getting you to sign for 'safe' collection. The first you know about it is when you get the bill through a week or so later.
Tell you what Pinky, marry me. I'm a multi multi millionaire and I've got a yacht and my own train and an airplane and I own Tesco's and I've got 29 houses on Lordship Lane.

There have been a few around lately. I passed a house at the top of Crystal Palace Park Road about a month ago that along with it's garden was covered in snow. Lots of film crew and lighting trucks on the pavement. The next time I passed a couple of days later, a guy was washing the snow off with a hose.
Only this afternoon as the sky was getting darker I shouted at a schoolboy on a cycle that was going along East Dulwich Road with no lights front or rear. And all I got back was a Fcuk Off. Charming. I was only trying to save his life. Won't bother next time.
