      The wife of Belgium's ambassador to South Korea is invoking diplomatic immunity to avoid charges for allegedly assaulting shop staff in Seoul, police have said.

      That's not what it's for - Diplomats are expected to comply with the law. Can't see how shopping can be defined as a diplomatic duty.

      She needs to take personal responsibility for her actions and let the legal system take it's normal course.

        How much would you pay for this piece of wood?
        I saw this in a garden centre this afternoon, it was priced at £20.
        If that is the case I've got a shed load of stuff worth thousands.
        I think it also said it had been shipped all the way from Indonesia.

            ARGH! Just coming here to vent again. Had two tonne bags of compost delivered. Nut nut neighbour comes out filming me AGAIN! Dave went out and told her to go forth and multiply - we don't usually respond but he was sick of it this time.

            Then planning officer turned up about our car port app - good news is she was so lovely and helpful and could empathise with the awful neighbour situation. I was still shaking from the Nut nut neighbour incident. Thank goodness some people are nice.

              Why was she filming you with two bulk bags of compost?
              Sounds like screw loose there to me.

              You should have posed with a shovel full of sh ite.

                Ha ha ha! You know what @pete , next time I will do just that.

                She is a complete nut case. She is just absolutely evil! It's mad around here. Another neighbour (with dementia) threw a milk bottle at my other elderly neighbour the other morning - literally just missed his head and smashed on his front door, all because she doesnt like his milk bottle crate next to his front door (there is nothing special about the milk bottle crate - bog standard type).

                      I bought a 100m ball of twine (amongst other things) from a building trade warehouse (been a member for donkey's years and still have it after being retired for 21 years :heehee:).

                      I started to use it and found it is made up approx. 3m pieces (so far) :doh: :mad: Fortunately I shall be passing the warehouse today otherwise it's not worth a journey to take it back.

                        DVD's - how on earth did we put up with such appallingly bad resolution. Just played a DVD now - it is almost unwatchable - blu ray from now on.

                          I thought a blue ray was a DVD, just shows what I know, seem to remember VHS wasn't that good, but it was at the time.
                          I've got so called hi def tv and ordinary tv and to be honest I cant tell the difference.
                          Oh yes there was the price difference.:roflol:

                            @Snorky85 I just got a quote to add one extra fence panel to my existing fence between me and the hillbillies. £800. That is £100per foot! But I'll have to fork it out to stop them from scalping my lawn...:doh:
