    O, not glue. Nor meat, mine have all ha not for food animal substances. Nor to hunt kennels, though i like the idea of them being eaten (it fits in with my own personal ethical belief which is a bit like the nitrogen cycle but for life force) you have to shoot and i want mine pts.

    haven't got tickets for anything at the moment. have been looking at what is available thinking that i should really go to something other than the men's road race.

    at the moment the only thing i would bother to see which has tickets available is the athletics on monday night, incl mens 400m final. but only £450 tickets available and i really cannot bring myself to pay nearly a grand for two of us to watch a couple of hours of athletics.

    i think i may just go to the paralympics instead to get into the park and see all the venues. but the velodrome is sold out for that as well!

    and it turns out that all the tickets that it says are available aren't actually available, except for women's basketball!

    Apparently I am most similar to a female boxer and a Brazilian beach volleyball player (also female).

    I aspire to be like Ricardo Blas Jr

    I'm a hammer thrower, but before I lost a few pounds I'd have been a swimmer. : puzzled:

    London travel alert: Wembley is currently being a pain. I'm currently at Earl's Court and it doesn't look too bad (from the apartment opposite's window).

    North Circular was slow all afternoon (I had the pleasure of using it twice.)

    Just put my old car up for sale at half of list price (it's only a year old), so hopefully it'll go pretty quickly! Currently at nearly 94k, so will be a 2000mi/wk year :eek:

    My impression, though, is that Doozer, PN and LIR wouldn't have been so wimpish. Am I right? ;)
    I'd have been there .... digging before the police turned up ....

    What did she do with the dog in the end? Did she have to prop the legs out with frozen peas to make them straight out?

    I didn't want to go into the gruesome details, so I am not sure. I imagine she laid it out on its side until rigor mortis set in, then popped it in the chest freezer, but your idea with the frozen peas would be good too.

    Eventually, the RSPCA caught up with her and took the dogs off her (she was totally nuts and not capable of looking after them properly).
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?
