Anita's son (Leam) used to work Saturday nights at his friend's pub before the lockdown. Last night he went back for the first time in four months. During the evening the police did spot checks on all of the town centre pubs, and one by one closed most of them down as the punters were really taking the piss, completely disregarding the measures the pubs were trying to implement.
By 9pm most were shut. Leam's pub voluntarily closed at 10pm as they could see where it was heading, with hordes of newly-ejected drinkers descending on the few remaining hostelries - the last couple of blokes entering seemed fine, but one went straight over to another man in the bar, punched him to the ground then left without even buying a drink.
I'll give it a week or two, then I reckon Boris Bed-hair will do a U-turn on the pubs thing. The out-of-town and eating pubs were probably behaving themselves, but it's another case of the dickheads ruining it for everyone, rather like Bournemouth last week.
folk are all daft.. should all have to wear exploding neck bracelets:eyebrows: that would teach the smeggers:eek:
That sounds like a good plan - I'm sure I saw that done in a film many years ago.Quote:

This evening I have been reading all about Rick Wakeman again (I didnt think I had forgotten that much !!) but a good read it was !!:)

Nearly flattened by a falling tree!

It's near me and I've driven under it thousands of times.
:eek: Strange that the tree should be in full leaf, yet have a very weak root system. Lucky that no-one was hurt.Quote:

I never went there anyway. Never even heard of them before that.
Me neither! Always tent or B&B for us. Well not tent any more, but definitely not hotels. Usually. Ok sometimes, when abroad. And occasionally in this country.Quote:

Had a late one last night (no change there) so put my rubbish bags out just before I went to bed at about 3, one orange bag with cardboard, paper & recyclable plastic & one black bag. When I got up at about 8 this was what was on my drive
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...20f90d04d2.jpg
Didn't go too close because of covid but these orange bags all looked to have non-recyclable stuff in so if the dustmen won't take them I'm stuck with them! Just to cover myself I reported this 'flytip' to the local authority.
I'd noticed that my neighbour had been sorting out stuff in her conservatory, it had been floor to ceiling crap but I happened to look last night & it was nearly clear so it didn't take Poirot to work out where the additional rubbish had come from.
Now luckily the dustmen weren't fussy and just took the lot but when my neighbour came to pick up a parcel I'd taken in for her (see, I even do her favours!) I asked her about the rubbish that had appeared. She denied all knowledge & said it had happened to her! I just said if these cheeky f***ers try it again & I catch them I'll make them eat it. Was I out of order?
I would have put on some rubber gloves and chucked the bags on her conservatory roof.
Any future mail for her that postie mistakenly puts through your letterbox, save it, and when you have a few put them in a couple of bin bags full of crap and dump them outside the council offices.
That's sneaky enough to have been thought up by me. :DQuote:

Took in two more parcels for her today, she seemed a bit perturbed at having to disturb me to collect them, maybe I made my point?
I have a Ring security camera installed - brilliant bit of kit for not a huge amount of money, and putting a few CCTV signs up has improved dog walkers and local teenagers behaviour...
Machine guns and bunkers also work a treat[emoji3]
Guily M lud !. How about a quick blast of speaker noise, might focus the mind.Quote:

Order the biggest vibrator you can find online, and have it delivered to your address, but with her name. Then when it arrives, open it before taking it next door. Apologise for having opened it by mistake, and watch her face as she looks inside. Important: do not use your own credit card to purchase it :)
What if his partner intercepts it and decides to keep it for herself?:eek::DQuote:

I've ordered a cheap but well reviewed motion sensitive camera which probably means this will never happen again.Quote:

Trying to get more folk wearing them I guess
Marco's haircut - no sign of it yet :popcorn:
Tuesday my boy, Tuesday..... It'll be worth the wait, I promise!:D
Marco.
Meanwhile, words can't describe what I'd love to do to these SCUM:

But oh how I'd love to find out where they lived, and then dump the whole fucking lot on their lawn!!!:steam::guns:

Remember - you promised us "before and after" photos. ;)Quote:

TIHMB listening to the 42 yr old copy of Trick Of The Tail, by Genesis on my modest old AiwaAp2200 (with Grants old Shibata AT95 cart and stylus on it :eyebrows:)and loving the little crackles that I put there with an old Ferguson stereo yrs ago !!
Great album and one of my all time favorites !!
And wondering if Audio Al has forgiven me for suggesting the Aiwa was a good deck for the money ( I am well past the envy /want another TT stage now !!) :)
Good cart that Anton
Sure is Grant - I have been using the other Aiwa TT I had for £60 ,so went back to the £40 Aiwa 2200 with your stylus in - it just sang somehow ,the conical Aiwa was nice but having chopped back ,I noticed a big difference (mind you , may have been the setup !!)Quote:

Well the camera turned up today, dead easy to set up & records a portion of video when it senses motion which it did for every passing car but didn’t record me backing off the drive, closer to the camera :scratch:
Impressed with the picture quality
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...f5b872e7_o.jpg
& here's the video of me coming home (there was a smart light on in the room otherwise the video would be clearer)

Not bad for 18 quid.
Enough cash left to get the van washed :ner: Seriously, that looks really good, where did you get it? I want oneQuote:
