cf a sausage cut in half length ways to look like two sausages, probably on the same plate. You ain't fooling anyone.

I won't join in trying to find expletives that will get through the filter ...

From irritating, to making me livid. Limescale, stained tea cups or mugs .. Litterbugs, animal neglect/abuse, bad manners (especially on the road, including bicycles and prampushers) ..


and when you are queueing at the checkout and they open a new one and instead of being first where you should be, you are now last behind a gang of marauding pensioners, who call their gang of friends over to also push in front of you, like they are entitled to be revered for living so long ... THEYVE GOT ALL DAY, (although I did say on one ocasion that I understood time was precious at their age) !!

"Wiltshire Farm Foods. So, Ronnie.. When did you last tuck into a lamb hotpot delivered straight to your door? Grrr


Louisa."


Wiltshire farm foods are the posh bit of "Apetito" the councils meals on wheels people. They are very good. Ronnie gets his wiltshire farm foods in a plastic tray, with an oak tree on a nice label as opposed to the council clients with tin foil tray with an appetite lid, and its delivered hot from the van ... so saving more on electricity/gas.


Wiltshire farm feed two old people ?100 per week approx

Apetito feed two old people 100 per month approx (if council cut price applies)

Threads about croissants. You know gentrification has destroyed a neighbourhood when a dedicated team of forum members contribute towards such a tedious topic. I think the ED 'knob-o-meter' scale has finally hit red and exploded.

Ah Louisa please tell me you're just pushing our buttons again.


The croissant thread is an enjoyable read and a fond reminder of how many threads on the forum used to be people actually chatting TO one another rather than just talking AT each other.


Almond croissants all the way ;-)

I may be wrong, but I would hazard a guess that Iceland croissants are a little less pretentious than the ones you get in other shops. It's not my thing, good luck to you if it is yours, but I just find them pointless.


Queue the barrage of responses of 'croissants are peasant food in France' nonsense from usual undercover guardianista snobs.

Irrational rage today caused by finding a potato caked in mud, in my bag of "washed and ready to use" potatoes. If I wanted a muddy one I would pay extra for organic ones (that's the main difference, right?). Mud on my Tesco Maris Piper is not acceptable.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
