The Frances Appreciation Board FAB have had a whip round and put a bounty on your head JL.

Unless you withdraw the above assertion we will be considering even crapper chocolate bars.

We give fair warning that we have access to both Fry's Turkish Delight and Hershey bars.


Edited because instead of the final parenthesis around FAB it came out as a b@stard emoticon.


Edited again because the same b@stard emoticon came up once more so left the the parentheses out altogether.

That's Friday the 13th for you.

I'm sure Jah knows when he's onto a good thing, and I fancy him myself, but isn't it the job of a certain type of landlady to make all the regulars think she'd kindly take them down the cellar and leave them gasping over a casket, if it wasn't for his nibs with his name above the door?

Nothing of the sort JL. I caught those side long glances she used to give me.

Glances that said 'if only I wasn't welded to this place by a sense of duty and for better or worse I married the big lug and I have had two children with him, I'd give up the second home, the boat and all the holidays and come and live in your council flat, that'll be ?3.20, yes it's gone up'.

Pregnant with meaning those glances were.

    • 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.          
    • 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. 
    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
