    Do we have any homosexual nice people?

    I guess there's about 20 of us plus lurkers which probably put us put to close to the ton (I found out today Mrs Generali is a lurker and boy am I in trouble - love you sweetie).

    Just wondering. On the scale I reckon I'm very hetero but I have had a little dabble once when drunk many years back.
    No, but I can agree that males are attractive, or good looking.

    I'd like to think I'm comfortable with my sexuality.

    I'd have called the police.....

    One of our neighbours kids parked across our drive recently then went out taking keys. We called the parking enforcement line and they came and ticketed her. They don't talk to us anymore but nor do they park any of their 4 cars over our drive.
    I think....

    I sleep in my daughter's bed on a Monday night because the bin men wake me up at 4am and the whole process takes an hour. I've changed all the sheets so I've got a nice bed to sleep in. I'll be in bed by 9pm latest.


    Where does daughter sleep on bin collection night?

    Just been reminded why I'm buying .... had FOUR letters from lettings agent in the last week - not actually read them as I just open the envelopes and skim them to ascertain: is there a problem, is it a S21, is it an inspection?

    They are all about the end of some theoretical six months end of AST that doesn't exist - and a rent increase. I am on a periodic tenancy, so no need to pay £125 for another 6 months as I've never had a six months since the end of the first one (to avoid paying the £125 every six months)..... they do like to try it on don't they!

    Yes, they do. I'd rather get wet walking from the car to the house than deal with a letting agent :)
