Today discovered that if you put el cheapo car shampoo into a snow foam dispenser it works just as well!

Neighbours being neighbourly.

Tomorrow is bin day therefore everyone is opening up their back gate, garage door or roller shutters. One neighbour has just knocked on my door to ask whether I have the contact details for another neighbour who has left their garage shutter up.

He’d try to knock on their door but the elderly neighbour doesn’t reply to her door after dark unless she knows who is there.

One text message later and there are thank yous all round.

Certainly beats the feeling of disgust I felt earlier walking past the Police Station and Citizen’s Advice shop which were fire-bombed in the riot nearly two weeks ago.

I read this a couple of times a day and makes me feel good that the scumbags have been locked up.
Don't want a discussion or argument about it.

Weekys words

So let's start with what you can't discuss currently and you all decide if you want to be part of the forum

1. Politics, elections, PMs, Presidents, US, UK, etc
2. The current riots and UK issues
3. Anything homophobic, transgender, etc
4. Anything 'news' related.

Cant see her doing the full stretch. Any of them for that matter as they are letting folk out early due to lack of room.

Went for a walk this morning and in the field just over the hedge were too dear (expensive!!!).

I didn't get a pic as they were too far away but I got a buzz out of seeing them. I was also pleased they were far away enough where my dog couldn't see them !

We used to get a buzz when they came over the wall to eat from the back of our garden but its that often now we got kind of used to it to the poing where we think its odd not seeing at least one every couple of days

I've seen a few on the paths near my house.

Which doesn't seem that surprising maybe, but I live in suburbia! Plenty of urban deer around here.

My resident Bambi earlier this year. Bought his girlfriend with him next day.

Mate, that's not his 'girlfriend', that's a wheelbarrow....

Just having a few beers in the square and enjoying the lucky lucky men with the holiday makers.
Hard core of about 10 and all friendly.

A few of them give my dog treats, even though he barks at them

Never heard a bad story about them and most tourists love the banter with them.

And they all love Billy From Barnsley who shouts "How much?" . He's worked hard at a sales pitch.

Bit different to the cultural situation in UK.

Started to get Google 'Ai' Gemini results on my search's.
It's hilariously bad and so far off the mark my job will be safe for years to come

Eating last week's leftover takeaway curry that I found lurking in the freezer.

Always tastes better.

Eating home made Chicken spring rolls for tea! Light enough to eat just before bed and filling enough to last till tomorrow

i finished the two (or is it three) day old veggie lasgna, that i also had for lunch (cold) and supper hot yesterday. very scrummy!

Being in a small town has been great but the Broadband has been shocking, 60Meg if you were lucky. Along comes Virgin and not only half price but..............

Almighty thump on the front windows just now, we know what that usually means ......dead bird.
Except this time a very dazed and confused peregrine falcon was sitting on the ground. By the time I'd found my phone etc he'd decided to foxtrot oscar to higher ground!
Still nice to see so close up!

Took the hound out for a walk this morning and picked up some fresh figs and blue cheese from the market.

On the way home I had my message read out on the radio

2 wins for me before 9 am !!

We had a woodpecker gradually wake up on the decking after headbutting a window.

And a pigeon left this print:
