Laughed publicly and like a donkey when I read capt_birdseye's confession.


Last night I was idly flicking through the digichannels in search of something watchable (is there a crapness/no. of channels ratio?!) when I thought "Now, what's that programme 'Close' that I'm always seeing is on that UKTV History Channel, let's have a look at and see if it's any good..."


:-$

only got about 2-3 hrs sleep last night, got up this morning, made coffee, put piping hot beverage in cupboard and sat down in front of sugar bowl.


Also, have spend the day studying nutrition and nearly posted above sentance as "sugar bowel"


Maybe an early night... ?

today, i think i was completly praying for the earth to open up and swallow me up after after putting my foot in it with a friend of a friend, i asked how his elderly dad was ...... god rest his soul as he passed away not so long ago, ( my wolly friend didnt mention it!!!) but the icing on the cake for me was......it was his boyfriend!!! not dad! shameful! i went as red as a beetroot! so embarassed! just stood there with my mouth open!! der!!!!!

polly, that is nothing, about 2 yrs ago, i was sitting with a work-mate in the office, when a fellow colleague from a different department walked in and after a bit of pleasant chit-chat, my work mate asked the colleague how his wife was, after a moments hesistation back came the reply, we,ve broken up, non deterred she then asked how was their child was only for him to go he,s dead. nothing else was said.

i fortunately was just an innocent bystander but if the world had opened up at that moment i would have gladly jumped in.

nutty I fell of a swiss ball in the gym not that long ago and I mean properly fell off backwards with my legs and bum in the air.

The worse thing was a few people noticed and didn't smile, just looked really serious and superior and carried on exercising in a smug and well coordinated way. I could've coped with being laughed at, but people noticing and pretending not to made it even worse.


:-$

Not today, but thought I'd share this.


A few years back I was out for my birthday, a young single man at the time. A couple of work colleagues came along, and after many drinks myself and a, normally very straight professional type, female colleague started getting really flirty. Nothing much happened, but the next day I text a friend saying "I'll never look at ****** the same way again".


Imagine my horror when I checked my outbox and discovered I'd text said colleague!


That Monday morning was a bit weird :-$

    • Quite a few going off tonight. Diwali is over, or so I thought. Anyone know what the special occasion is?
    • I got this  interesting email today. At least some (albeit apparently very few) shoplifters seem to have been arrested, though I wonder what the criteria were. Obviously that is only the ones arrested as a result of this particular initiative. Met Engage Logo Joint Partnership Success – Operation Roscoea, Southwark We’re pleased to share the success of Operation Roscoea, a joint partnership anti-social behaviour (ASB) initiative carried out in Southwark last week. This multi-agency operation saw eight partner representatives from six support organisations conducting outreach patrols alongside officers from our Trust, Confidence and Engagement Team. These joint efforts led to numerous new referrals into support services, ensuring vulnerable individuals are connected with the help they need. Neighbourhood policing teams also carried out joint patrols with Southwark Council wardens, who now hold newly designated enforcement powers. This enhanced collaboration has strengthened our collective ability to respond to ASB and community concerns. Operational highlights included: Six arrests made by officers from North Southwark Town Centre Team, St George’s, North Walworth, Faraday, Newington Ward, Chaucer, and the Proactive Crime Team: 2 for possession of a Section 5 firearm (CS spray) 1 for possession of Class A and B drugs 1 individual wanted for theft 2 for shoplifting ASB enforcement activity included: 2 Community Protection Notices issued to persistent offenders Numerous intelligence reports submitted to support ongoing investigations This operation is a testament to the dedication and teamwork of our local officers and partner agencies. Thank you to everyone involved for your continued commitment to making Southwark safer and more resilient. We look forward to building on this momentum in future deployments.

    • I've seen it in the same place the past two Fridays. I'm assuming it's some sand that's left over from when the old sand filters failed. When that happened there was lots of sand on the bottom. I'm guessing it'll only go if they use a pool vacuum to clean the bottom.
    • Maybe because you would have thought such an incident  would have been publicised, or  someone on here would know what it was? On the face of it it seems odd, especially if they were on blues and twos, if there was no serious  reason for it. Unless, as I said, it was some kind of training exercise?
