I probably shouldn't laugh at this, but some train driver's rather batty mum gets interviewed by the local rag for reasons I can't quite comprehend. Obviously an extraordinarily slow news day in Hertfordshire.


He's going to cop a hell of a ribbing if the boys at the depot work out who he is...

At the theatre the security guard was checking the contents of my bag thoroughly (middle-aged women being a suspect demographic). She suddenly stopped, gave me a funny look, pointed at the bottom of the bag and said, 'What's that?' I'd forgotten the large courgette wrapped in a plastic bag. Mortified.

"Is that a courgette in your bag madam? Well, it seems to be buzzing with excitement at seeing the play."

Those Aussies. Thinking of becoming a Republic again but still insist on using the Queen's English, which us Irish obviously fail miserably at........

A picture in the property section of this month's Living South, entitled:


"Presidents Quay House, prices from ?1,799,999"


Now I can understand somebody being taken in by something priced at, say, ?17.99 and thinking that sounds much cheaper than ?18.


But if you are looking at houses around the ?1,800,000 mark, is the pound difference of ?1,799,999 really going to tip the balance?

    • Another recommendation for Niko. Great communication, top guy, and super reliable and skilled - all at a fair price. Takes a lot of care in what he does and talks you through everything. 
    • Some foxes are very tame. The foxes that live near the electricity sub-station thing on the corner of Calton and Woodwarde will happily walk up to you/passed you. They are some of the best looking foxes around so clearly being well-fed - glorious coats and bushy tails but interested in humans and keen to engage/be fed rather than being scared.
    • Let’s not all get scared of the foxes now. Most likely explanation is protecting its den or association with food. We have foxes, and cats and they are no bother to each other. The fox will leave when the cats are out.
