I forgot, I have to say something similar on the third greeting...''Good morning Mr Magpie, how's the wife and kids?''

Nothing for two, but if I'm with someone and I see one Magpie, then I say ''One Magpie seen by two, double good luck to me and you''...apart from Magpies, I'm very rational...honest!

Down four generations, there's only been one girl born on my father's side.


My Great Grandfather had two boys, my Grandfather had two boys, my Dad had two boys, his brother had two boys and the anomoly, my Dad's brother's anomoly had two boys, her younger brother had two boys, her other brother hasn't had kids, my brother has had a boy and i've not had kids.

Unless the stalker had already worked out their quarry's regular route and laid down the feathers accordingly...

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
