Yeovil has a shop called ?The Yeovil sheepskin centre? it sold all things sheepskin. It ran a series of cutaway shot cinema interval type ads on T.V. back in the 80,s and 90?s, with that wonderful strap line ?Yeovil sheepskin centre, for all your sheepskin needs? and ?located just off the A37 with ample customer parking?


The ads must have been aimed at shift workers, or people coming in from the pub, as they usually ran after about 10pm.

Living in Sussex I often wondered how many people actually thought ?f*ck, I think I?ll drive all the way to Yeovil and buy one of those sheepskin coats when I need one?

In the bible, which I am not saying is a factual work, it is a fact that in it, some youths called an old man baldy so god sent 42 bears to attack them! Also that you can't get into heaven without your goodies apparently.


We got a letter from the council "AN ANNUAL REVIEW ... THAT IS CARRIED OUT EVERY TWO YEARS"????

Fact: We had a family telegram from Elvis because he couldn't be bothered to turn up for the prize winners of a rock and roll competition.


Fact: When I am in my nicer sports car road users are more polite and give way more often than when I am transporting oldies in the old farts estate car!

It's worse


"Elisha turned around and stared at the boys. Then he cursed them in the name of the LORD. At once two bears ran out of the woods and ripped to pieces 42 of the boys. "

Syrian bears - not in Palestine any more but they were in biblical times. If you want an animal that really gives the bible credibility a good shake, look up Abraham's domesticated camels...

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
    • It's Inner London. You could move somewhere else?
    • They are people.  That's how people often behave.
