The boring thread.....

Just shows how disgraceful the British Bullshit Corporation has become. It used to be trusted, but now......

That sounds like a coach trip to Blackpool...

Those on here constantly banging on about the bias in the BBC must be skipping for joy today!! 🤣🤣🤣

I'd only be pleased if they were forced to go over to being either advertising or subscription based. All this means is there'll be different woke faces in charge spinning their BS.

Good morning all.    

[klondike]

And a good morning to you. I bet it isn't all that good though. Just been tipping it down here. Half inch since midnight according to my weather station.

[Vlad]

Good morning one and all. Wetter than a well diggers arse here.

Last year a parcel got dumped on my doorstep. The address was badly formed and what looked like a house name on it turned out to be a street name in a neighbouring small town. I tracked the name as a woman with a top job (forget what exactly) in a company. I used the email address. No reply. I opened up the parcel to see if the packing note was any better. It wasn't. The thing inside was a hoody with a three figure dollar price.

Some time passed and still no contact back. I asked my daughter if she wanted a hoody. She looked at it and saw it had some huge embroidered thing on the back (again don't recall exactly what). She didn't want it but said she'd see if she could find the name on Facebook. She did and eventualy the hoody was picked up. Was to be a Christmas gift.

Well Christmas is coming and... I'm sure you're ahead of me here. The owner had texted me to arrange pickup so I've texted the number saying I have another one. So far no reply....

Don't look short of a bob or two...

Good morning good people.  
Hope we all have a good day.

Morning Mups.

Not quite so wet today wondering whether to risk walking to the gym today. I used the car yesterday which is a cop out.

The owner of the misdelivery picked her parcel up. I was tempted but refrained from saying "See you next year".

[Scrumpy]

Get in there Klondike... Might be a rich widow.. desperate for a man..

Dull here today.. Not raining.. yet.. Washing on ... and lippy..

[klondike]

Are you saying she sends them to me deliberately.....

[Scrumpy]

There's nowt as strange as folk Klondike..

I have been for a walk.. very mild out there.. saw a dog.. said 'hello' when it came to a halt in front of me.. waiting to be spoken to.. tickled its head...

Nah!!!  Not when it's organised by the Jockey's Nostril...

I wonder if the animals we love ever think humans are strange though?

I wonder what we'd do if a stranger in the street suddenly  said to us  -  'Hello, '  tickled our head,  then walked on. 

Funny when you think about it though, as we  often pet other species,    . . .      except our own!  
We'd be arrested for touching our own species,  wouldn't we.  

[Scrumpy]

Animals know when you like them.. and when you are genuine..

I haven't met a person today who's head I would like to tickle..

Yes,  I agree. 

I haven't met a soul today who I'd want to tickle either.   
We'll have to have another look tomorrow.     Perhaps Vlad would like one?
