    Had a person knock on the door, "i'm trying to find my child", all they had was a postcode, if you send out your other half to pick up your child from a party/sleep over make sure you give them a name and address or even a phone number to where the party is, The only thing that we (hopefully) but them to the right place was the age of children and the pos school name as a common link

    A postcode for houses in the crountryside can be over a large area

          Well, them on the roadside so they could be free-range

          What's more we rang the farm's office 2 months ago and said your sheep are just starting to get out and heading for the road, office rang contracters to get them back in (which was Quick) but they didn't do any fencing for next time :scratch: so two weeks ago they put sheep with lambs back in the same field :doh:i saw the shepherd and mention the big gap where they can just walk out :th scifD36: next thing there is sheep wire tied up up sting :yikes:
          Now the lambs have worked out they can get through the gate :biggrin:

            I could hear some distant thumping early this morning (like a car music system left on) I found out a few hours later when I went to a reserve for some Osprey watching that it was an illegal all night rave!! this was on private land. Later it was on Southern tv, the police did nothing, only told them to go home as they were disturbing nearby residents!!!!!!! The equipment was brought there in huge trucks and there were about a thousand 'ravers'.
            So no one in authority would know of it, it was only notified by mobile not the internet.

            They didn't leave they are still there now and I can hear them from 7 miles away.:frown::frown:

                  The police are not interested in what affects the ordinary bloke in the street.
                  They set their sights higher.

                  I notice Kent police headquarters is pretty much covered in scaffolding again.
                  No money but the maintenance bill for that building must be astronomic.

                  I've just stumbled across QVC channel, it's got that little worm Richard Jackson on it, I wondered what had happened to him.:biggrin:
                  You can get two 60 litre bags of HIS very special compost for £18 plus £6 P&p, a real bargain, HIS fantastic feed to go with HIS fantastic compost.

                  Then 30 GARDEN READY Zinnias for£13 plus £5 P&P.

                  Rose feed aswell.
                  And a primrose that flowers for 6 months at minus 15C

                  If you want a good laugh it's worth a look.:lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                    Better than most comedies, usually three people talk at once and tell you the same thing ten times in a minute and of course, hurry as 10,000,000 people have just ordered in the last hour.:loll:

                            Supermarket trollies - two gripes today, first is the wonky, squeaky or partially seized wheel and second is why cant people stack the bloody things when they return them?! Leaving a great heaving mess of trolley spaghetti in the bay so they quickly pile out into the car park. What is so difficult about pushing them into line??
