I'm not sure I believe the bit about the sirens blaring.

What made me laugh was that they went on to have a second date :))


ETA: It must have really broken the ice :)) (as well as the window .....)

ianr, admire your thinking.


You'd have to think a fair amount of drink had been taken. If either of them was sober they'd have made something out of a coat hanger and a suitable kitchen utensil in the fine Blue Peter tradition that made this country great.


Mind you, if she was sober she probably wouldn't have thrown it out of the window in the first place.

A cyclist has ridden around the world in 79 days, beating the previous world record by 44 days.

That's about the same amount of time I've been waiting so far for GWR to refund the cost of a ticket for a journey of one hour twenty minutes that took two hours too long. Despite all my attempts to get them to take action it's just one fob-off or delaying tactic after another, and right now it looks like it could easily take as long again. Dismal service.

Ironic, anyway.


Even more so the hen party who complained after being thrown off a flight due to their offensive t-shirts and behaviour upsetting other passengers. The news said the replacement trip took them to the country festival in Las Vegas at the weekend.

Bet you wish you'd taken him up on it now, Sue.


On another topic, thank you to the policeman on the beat near the library today who very sweetly avoided eye contact as I cycled round the corner on the pavement to avoid turning right on the road at that scary junction. Point taken.

I don't think so - how many children are interested in Brexit? Someone has been waging a campaign against it locally for months, often with offensive words and violent images which strangely make no clear arguments but just create a general sense of threat.

    • It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats. 
    • I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.
    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
