I've made it a rule for many years to never owe anyone anything, particularly banks. Occasionally I move investment money through my current account, if there's a fair size balance when you call in, they try to offer you investment accounts, but the rates are always rubbish. As it's often the...

Ouch! You're brave. Glad it's sorted now. It's true about shoes - listen to your mum (specially girls) when she tells you 'they'll ruin your feet, why don't you get some Clarks' lol. cheers

Wonder how far that willow is from the house or any pipes? When we bought our first house the sellers talked about their wonderful weeping willow outside the dining room and it was the height of the roof. I was thinking "what about the roots?" The second weekend after we moved in the willow...

Oh, yeah, I catch what you're saying now. That lovely tone that says "you're all idiots because you don't think in the proper manner"!! As regards the rest of it. I don't worry about being accused of being a "weirdo". The kid is most important. Having said that, if I see a young child...

last year i was out for a run on the bicycle. cycling along the woodland edge i heard the noise of police cars in the distance coming from the main road. on reaching the main road there were police cars coming from all over the place, i thought it was a bank robbery or something of that ilk ...

I once got into a comedy fight in the dinner hall. I say 'comedy', I'm ashamed to admit it was meant to be serious at the time, but try to picture the scene and you'll see what I mean.A lad in the year above me deliberately knocked my dinner over. I saw red and stood up to confront him. He...

Found the story. As for belief in miracles, plenty of "believers" take the bible to be gospel truth (pardon the pun). Including those odd, odd people, creationists...

Hi, well slightly off topic but the same sort of thing..... we were down south recently and went to a 'forest' area. There was a hut with videos showing, ponds with endangered species, walks etc but when we asked for a cup of tea or similar, we were told that it would 'cost more, mean more for...

Eee, eh? The lengths you have to go to these days to avoid getting told off for cycling on the pavement.All those shortcuts and he was still late for work.I think he needs some new glasses, he rode into the same tree several times.Man on bike: "I never did like this bike that my parents...
