    Doozer was that the one that people were worried Bruno might turn up:eek:?

    Oh, lol! Maybe? I do remember that, but can't remember if it was that one or a subsequent one we cancelled just in case.

    I think we carried on and just moved venue.

    I met my bessie mate that day :)

    Anyone know his wife's name? IMHO women are more likely to be on Facebook.

    On a lighter note, this did make me chuckle:

    I quite fancy a bit of anarchy.

    Edit: That said, I have removed any recent mention specifically of He Who Must Not Be Named.

    Did I tell you that Parcel Force put a parcel worth £230 in my green bin (according to the card) when I was on holiday over Easter? The recycling centre must now have the best loo brush in the public sector (if it is public sector).

    The company got the address wrong in the first place and sent it to my house instead of to site.

    The driver forged my signature so the sender thought I'd received it.

    They threw one over the gate next to my house. The only problem with that is that the gate doesn't go to my house.

    I think delivery drivers and their version of the Darwin Awards could prove a rich seam for mining.

    We ordered some stacks of plastic drawers that the guy(?) threw over our garden gate. :eek:

    Dear Friend,

    There have been times when the empathy and support of NP has kept me going. People as far away as Hertfordshire have felt near. Not only have they offered wise words, but they have listened.
    If you have any mobile numbers for any active NP could you message one of us to say how you are and how we can help you.
    I want to be here for you as NP have been there for me when I have been living in dark times.

    I am now trying to imagine how a loo brush can be worth £230.:D
    Was it gold-plated with a diamond finial?
