Just think of those Wheelie Bins not being emptied over Christmas, the silence of the missing Collectors Lorry and the noise of hobnail boots, just the tap tap tap of the computer, perhaps it might lull you to sleep just this once.

I was interested in the Electric Chair it would certainly help me getting around, I phoned up to ask if it had been used latly he said it was not used for years, I said has it got a seat belt? He said No but its got two ankle straps and two wrist straps. and a heated Helmet. I had never heard of this modle So I am trying getting a lift there to see it, the place is in Wandsworth, he said go down the side of the school.

Thank you dazie for your offer, but yesterday I had to take the Wheelie bin out to the footpath, I had the support of it over the solid ice to get it out there, but none to get bsck, I noticed the milkman had left six bottles of milk to get me over Christmas, I could only take three bottles at a time so I held those to my chest, then I went down with a bump on my back, I have dificulty in getting up any time but here I just could not get a grip esch time I tried my feet just slipped, the Bin men saw me and got me up, they said I looked like a tortiose on its back, I had to search for my glasses, I had cut the tips of two fingers, the milk had not broken open. I managed to get back to the house. I left it till later before going out to get the other milk and the bin back in, I noticed that where I had fallen had left a deiced patch so I must have been there some time. I had lost my cap so my bald head got really cold, I had an early night.

Did you not sprinkle some salt where you have to walk? I slipped on to my arse three times before this occured to me. If you do need a lift or some salt i am round the corner :)

Some/many of us will not have MS Publisher so cannot see your card.


It looks as if it may have contained a TIFF image. If so, can you post just the image file (.tif or whatever) without wrapping it up in a Publisher page?

Umm - I am also a golf widow. That can't be fair. Although to be fair to the husband, he has been a complete star for the last 10 days since our 3rd baby (a boy, after 2 girls) was born and has become a full time housewife (with a bit of EDF in between times). We had a very rocky ride for a while and it all got quite scary.


I know this is not the place for sentimental comments but it's Christmas and I just want to say that I love him to bits and can't believe how well he has coped with everything that has been thrown him. (And I'll leave it to someone else to guess his identify!)


(and incidentally, it will be the baby, not the bin men, waking me up from now on!).

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By malumbu · Posted

      @first mate  just Google the Green's policies and AI should summarise.  For sustainable transport this includes more initiatives to get people out of their cars as you would expect.  I've always been broadly in favour of their environmental policies, although feel they should go further on culture change. Some of their national policies are bonkers and/or unrealistic - as are most of Reform's.  Historically fringe parties could come up with nonsense, as they will never govern.  Of course whilst I don't expect that Polanski will ever be PM that other bloke could be.  Worrying times, particularly if the Greens split the centre/left vote.  It would be better if One Nation Tories could split the centre vote (and drag some of those on the right), but they don;t have a lot of influence in the current party. One particularly bonkers policy was one element of the Greens who wanted us out of Europe, not because of Europe being pro market/capitalism but because we needed a recession, deindustrialise, so we would all go back to the middle ages.  Or something along those lines.  I lost some friends because of this. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03y5trr#:~:text="Protectionism against developing countries%2C savage austerity in,the case for either remain or leave. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/08/eu-reform-green-brexit

      I've planted a meadow out front, it needs a lot of work.  It's lovely until August and then grotty until the next spring as once the flowers have died back it doesn't have a lot going for it.  Clover is the last one to flower.  It will get admiring looks when in bloom. I laugh quite loud when I pass one neighbour with plastic grass, not only is it dead to nature it is not even laid well,   I should be crying.

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By TheRoses · Posted

      Andy did a number of jobs for me and was very reasonably priced. He's very helpful, arrives on time, pays attention to detail and a nice man. I'll be using him again and recommending him to my friends.
