While working in this website all that you see is the written word, or att. Pictures.

How often are you engrossed in sending a message or answering one, with the Television going in the background.

A certain advert is blasted out by a well known booming person, that distracts you from your computer.

How many others would love a button that when pushed would show that person the mid air after the explosion under his seat?

Am I the only person to think this.

CS, good to see you posting.

TV/radio/stereo can be a distraction at times, but it's up to YOU to turn the darned thing off !!

However, I'd like such a button for cold-callers at my front door, perhaps a trap door to a snake pit or an ejector paving slab which will catapault them a couple of blocks away !

I was thinking more of a toilet plunger over his mouth to silence him.

Good idea the Bell shocker,and the coal hole trap flap.

Sweeny Tod type shute to bake house, can't recomend the pies though.

Tazer O.K. but he is still there.

Unusual I enjoyed his " Who do you think you are? "

Computed - did you know a lady, Evelyn, at 199 Crystal Palace Rd ?

It was a clock makers (her Father) at time of, and after, WWII. I believe she has a brother, she's around 82 now.

She told me a story about the bomb that landed behind the pub nearby and all the ceilings in her house came down.

When she was telling me this I wondered if you'd known her when you lived in ED.

    • 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.
