Dropped off to sleep and had the most horrendous dream .
I was in London ( but it was a wild slum like town) with my two little boys and my dog and lost them all and my bag and backpack .
My terror was so great my heart is pounding still .
Boy was I glad to wake up ! 

Must be that  half a cream bun I ate at tea time !

It goes from bad to worse .
Is there some horrible brain virus that is infecting the nation ? 

What do you think about this latest idea from Waitrose?

According to today's newspaper, Waitrose have . . .  "bowed to pressure from the trans lobby and axed the word 'Feminine'  from it's period products aisle signs."

They are now going to re-word its sanitary hygiene signs to the gender-neutral term  'Period care'  after being informed that "Not all people who have periods are women."

Managers were told at a meeting that "Not all people who have periods are women.  Trans men and some non-binary people also have periods." 

A trading Manager for Waitrose health and beauty said: "I agree the term 'feminine care'  does not accurately describe the products within the category and this this should be changed."


I give up,  I really do. 

Poor Spotty was just soaking wet
But not so bad he'd need the vet
He had a good shake, and wiped his feet
And his Uncle K gave him a nice dry sheet
And that's all I know as yet. 


Ben stood in his shower, loving the feel
Of lovely cool water right down to his heels

In today's paper it said she had very good security at her home,  with many cameras,  although Police struggled to decipher her doorbell camera and rumour has it that it was smashed, probably by the intruder.

It also said they think she may have left her back door open because of the heat.
That seems quite feasible to me.

Yes, and quite pretty.  I was young once and quite handsome (so Marge says!).

From Politics Live

SUMMARY: Neighbours describe the white British man arrested in Rotherham on suspicion of murdering Ann Widdecombe

- A learning difficulties "loner" who didn't seem to work and rarely left his house

- He went "loopy" and "more introverted" once his father died before Christmas, who he had moved in with around a year ago

- "He was someone you'd have a conversation with but that changed after his dad died. He became very quiet. He kept himself to himself and wouldn't really speak to anyone"

Ends

Apparently he had a brother who lived in Devon and had visited him before..just a guess but was the guy that was initially arrested his brother?
