*collapses laughing*


actually you are not far wrong!!! When one has been married as long as I have...V-day is just another day. Having said that, I may well be going out on the piss in the evening with Monica, hubby and some others and anyone else who wants to tag along for a laugh!


Oh SteveT...how I have missed your cheekiness of late...relieved to see you remain on good form though. x

Well if it's any consolation giggirl I won't be single on Valentine's Day for the first time in years (well, not unless something goes horribly wrong between now and Sunday).


However my latest paramour doesn't believe in cards and chocolates, so I'll probably end up watching Antiques Roadshow on my own...

Oy! Rosie "I used to be single but I aint no more" H - go and find your own loved up thread. This is for those of us who are single and gloomy.


I may well also have a horrible tooth ache if Kings dont do the business tomorrow AND I discovered that one of my "I'm a single young woman and enjoying it" colleagues has been secretly loved up for the past 18 months. Splitter.


I may just open my veins. Briefly.


Alternatively, where are we meeting for this drink? I will need some anaesthetic in a number of ways.

Huh? But it seemed like such good value. What with that and the Danny Dyer box-set I've bought for "'er indoors" I thought I'd be a shoe-in.


It costs ?15 at Waitrose for the same combo....do you think that would do the trick? Money talks, right?

My friends and I plan to celebrate our singledom with a valentines day night of cheesiness - heart-shaped cakes, cheese fondue, celine dion on repeat, excessive wine. All that rubbish. Who says we can't be cheesy too? Go out and have a blast with your friends! Embrace it! :))http://www.postalgold.info/

    • Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.    
    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
