Respect for all postmen/women

I'm an active member of our local pressure group to keep our greenbelt green and stopping thousands of houses being built all over it. To this end my hubby and I regularly walk the streets delivering updates in leaflet form to houses in the area. We'...

Opinions please on what you think it would be like if .............

Instead of Covid-19 being as they say a virus that is more lethal to people with underlying health conditions and of a more mature age than it is for younger generations ?In my opinion the older generations would be doing their utmost in the majority...

The Red Planet.

After cloudy nights, the clouds have finally parted so I can get another look at the Red Planet. Nice to see our neighbour even though it's about 34 million miles away? At the moment (around 12:15am) it's East South East but during the night it'll ap...

How can a government make new laws ...........

and expect the public to follow them to the letter when the government itself admits it is breaking international law and will continue to do so, especially on a contract they negotiated and signed ?Is this not hypocrisy of the highest standard ?What...

The American election?

Has it been thrown in to disarray by Trump's positive test? Who'd you think would be best for America and the World? I think Trump's a bit of a hot-headed crackpot at times but I think Biden's far too Liberal and less authorative. I suppose making th...

My Son the Hero

Well, my youngest is now a hero in our local Coop. He popped in the Coop on his way home from work tonight and saw a shoplifter come hurtling towards him with several bottles of vodka under his coat so he swung into action and threw himself at the gu...

Fancy the job?

The job of being Prime Minister at the moment? It doesn't matter what he proposes, whatever line he takes some will say it's wrong. He can't do right for doing wrong..... depending on your point of view. If he proposed for instance 1/... Straight awa...

Police brutality?

We've seen in the news how people have suffered some sort of injury (or death) at the hands of the cops? Sometimes it seems to be over something pretty trivial. Don't you think those people could have saved themselves any bother if they'd just been c...

I know it's Autumn but....

Have we lost a Petal? Is he drunk again? Has he been arrested? Has he escaped? Has he eloped? Come back Petal, all is forgiven........

Quick question guys.

75 years ago today.

The first Atom Bomb was used in war on the morning of August the 6th, 1945 in Hiroshima. The devastation in Beirut has been likened to that in Hiroshima but thankfully there won't be the radiation to add to the misery. It has been said that the force...

What is your stance on a Covid-19 vaccine ?

I have already seen protests from people saying if there ever is a vaccine for Covid-19 they will refuse to have it ! This I do not understand because this vaccine (if it ever transpires) could help save your life and possibly save all the brave work...

Tony Morris R.I.P.

I think you'd have to live in the north west to know who I mean, he has been a presenter on Granada Reports for 17 years and was a lovely, lovely man. He passed over the weekend from kidney cancer. He will be missed like mad in our neck of the woods.

Is Fallen Archie On Holiday?

He hasn't posted on the "Continue a Word" thread for over a week.

Schools are starting to close early in my area.

Due to staff shortages.

Quarantine anyone?

As we've seen on the news (???) quarantine restrictions have been imposed on returnees from some locations abroard but don't you think all foreign travel should be stopped worldwide to prevent further spread of covid-19 in a "second wave"? There's lo...

Paypal woes

As i'm getting desperate - does anyone have any ideas as to how I can resolve this? I went to log into my Paypal account and got to a page which said "Security Prompt" with the PP logo and, as I've just seen a tiny text box much further down into whi...

I am not a London bus although it may seem like it

I'll try not to start another thread too soon so it doesn't come across as me not being around for yonks and then all of a sudden I'm like a hot rash. Anyway, it goes like this: The My eBay board seems to be closed. Is that correct? It seems to be al...

The comet.

Well tonight the sky was finally clear enough for me to see the comet Neowise. There was too much light pollution (a streetlight was 50 yards from me) to see it with the naked eye so I used my binoculars. Looking North West from here also means light...

Had to share my beautiful Granddaughter Abbie has achieved a Batchelor of Laws with Honours. Worlds her Oyster now

Whats a "bum starter"

Judging from the context where I read it, it seems to be something used in Northern pub fights. Being a Southern softy, I haven't a clue

Remember......

Remember what I said about the slave trade and that the slavers who captured people were others of their own kind? Well, just have a read of this article:- https://news.sky.com/story/shackled-beaten-and-raped-on-the-trail-of-senegals-child-slaves-120...
