Nice attempt there rcmacf (how does one pronounce this?) I hope you succeed. To use another cricketing analogy, I hope you bowl over a maiden and score a six with her. Watch out for bouncers though and don't tamper with the balls by rubbing them too vigourously or scratching them with your nails. (I'm no cricket fan myself actually!)

No, no proposals in the offing, Daizie. It's just been a tough week for several reasons I won't go into on the Forum. I'm sure next week will be better (it had better be!)
The literary equivalent of the 'Lynx effect', eh, PGC? Gosh this is the 2nd time I've been flattered on the Forum this morning. Thanks! You won't realise how important this means to me today, of all days.

http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,356815 Hi - your timing may be perfect - go to this thread in the Lounge - its asking exactly the same question, and you may be interested in the guy on the last page...! Good luck....
I think you're right, probably kids with no direct malice intended towards you, just cowardly selecting targets at random. A very similar thing happened when I lived in Tulse Hill - a large pellet fired low through the French window into the lounge at the back, glass splinters everywhere. Luckily my one-yr old wasn't in the room at the time. Colleagues of mine (in the fire service) have been fired upon whilst fighting fires, and even in fire stations. There are some very unpleasant people around.
...or: Land of Hope and Glory, Land of My Fathers, Flower of Scotland, Danny Boy. Or some Classical pieces by Vaughan Williams: Lark Ascending, Fantasia on Greensleeves, Norfolk Rhapsody No. 1, In the Fen Country, English Folk Songs Suite.

Ladymuck has seen it. You don't want to end up like her, do you? Even her feet have grown hair, apparently.
Never iron your clothes with an electric iron. Instead, place ironing board on top of mattress. Lay clothing item on board, then make bed as usual. Go to bed. Next morning, hey presto! Perfectly pressed clothing item.
