    It wasn't funny at the time, they had detector vans like the TV ones and they sat down the road monitoring where the signal came from........I protested that the phone was already in the house when we moved in but it didn't wash as they were new out and about £200 at the time !!!
    Ahh ISWYM. Now that they could monitor (radio waves). They can pinpoint that quite accurately. In the eighties there was a plethora of pirate radios shut down. So what these people did was move their equipment every few days. Usually between high rise flats where they could broadcast the best signal.

    Morning everyone:)Really chilly here this morning but bright. Working today so nipping in and out.
    Alfie has a proper tail wag this morning:T:TNow I know hes feeling better and this morning he very slowly and carefully rolled onto his back, legs in the air wanting a belly rub:) Trouble was his scar is right down his tummy so had to try and do it around all the stitches:eek:But meant I could have a proper look and scar is looking good:)
    Saw that S&G looks like its comparing at 20p in T's again:TDefinately will give that a go later if I get out, wonder if its the same flavours as last time?

    Tiny am so glad your managing to have nice chats with your mum, they are such precious times xxxx


    Really good news that Alfie's feeling a bit better - Elite tummy tickles and cuddles to Alfie :)

    My OH had one of those radios plane spotters use :rotfl: You could hear conversations between air traffic control and the pilot. You could also hear the police:eek:
