Minnie, the crazy cat woman from the Gardens, has sadly died. From what I remember she spent a lot of the last twenty years feeding the local cats. I used to pass her flat on the way to the Clockhouse and see her in her kitchen boiling up mince to make her own version of ?Kitty Kat? which she would put into aluminium foil containers and deliver to local cats. She did this until her arthritis got too bad, when this happened she left a note for our cat and four cans of cat food. A very sweet excentric old lady. Her funeral is on 2nd June at Honour Oak crematorium.

Aw that's sad news chick, the local moggies have lost a good friend. Thanks for posting, so yet another local character sadly gone. I hope there's a good turn out at her funeral.


(Although I'd like to note that you *can* be a cat person without being crazy, er... can't you?) ;)

Minnie?? Fine a few days ago??

Poor Gwen had become almost bent double and in pain. I think she died as long ago as March. She was friendly to all. She liked talking to people and making sure the birds and animals were fed. Beckham asked the time of her funeral. It's 10am.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
