Quote from: muddy on Today at 07:36:16 AMHaving stayed up to watch the football .i decided to walk my dog out early to avoid the heat and was rewarded by seeing a fox ( in a field full of sheep who completely ignored it )
Here in the country we don't see many foxes , it's my first this year . Where my son lives in a town there are foxes all over the place .

Didnt the country gentry hunt them almost into extinction so they moved into the city where people keep Rottweilers and not hounds?

Across the road from the post office there's a VERY nice chippy. So I had chips, curry and a spam fritter - in batter no less. On a Monday. It was fucking lush, and I didn't even think about the cholesterol...but that's me..living on the edge

Woollies went out with a bang - all at once iir. M&S is more of a whimper. Must be 5 years or more now since they shut here. Their old store along with British Home Stores had been demolished last time I was in town. I put up a pic here is some thread or other. 

According to the blurb the redevelopment there is being transformed into a new urban residential-led neighbourhood.

I'll add my own rider to that - if they can raise the necessary. Current schedule suggests completion in 2032 which tells me they haven't got the money yet and probably won't. There are several empty sites in and near the town centre that have been empty a long time.  With one of them a new project and artist's impression appears from time to time but nothing ever gets started.

I remember when Woolworths closed down..
What a shock.. We thought they would go on forever..
 It is the same for M&S..

I have a cheeky one that sits in my front garden just in front of the car.. He doesn't even budge when I walk pass him.. Sometimes he sunbathes on the shed..

Klondike is acting all tough
Pretending that he plays rough
I bet he's just a pussy cat
Loves to be petted and sit on your lap

Been to the Co-op... Watered my shrubs.. The hot sun is
slowly drying them up and killing them.. My water bill is expected to be fairly high.!!
