    Why, I bet there are people here who've never kept up with the Kardashians, or who think that Kanye West is the man who selects the best pilchards before the rest are rejected....

    I have to confess near total ignorance about Kardashians - can you call the council if they invade your home?

    And thanks for the tip about Kanye West - if anyone's home is affected by dangerous pilchards we now know who to contact ;)

    Weren't the Kardashians the enemies of Dr Who, two series ago? Isn't Kanye West the seldom seen son of Timothy West and Prunella Scales?

    No. NASA.

    (I believe the UK does have a secret RAF unit that monitors and responds to alien landings in the UK but you didn't hear that from me.....)

    Would that be the National Alien Shifting Authority? I cannot find them online.

    Having just looked Ms K up on the interweb, I don't think the first "A" refers to aliens, but some much larger threat! :eek:

    I think you may be too young to recognise my oblique reference to a very old TV advert, but believe me, that's a very good thing! :)

    EDIT: This is the the 'modern' one:

    UPDATE;
    Local association sent out a member of staff, the Bees were considered to be in a dangerous location. The bees have now been removed and relocated. Very pleased, everyone happy, Job Done.

    Yes, there's no doubt they were in a dangerous situation, as you wanted to get rid of them, by whatever means.

    Lucky that local beekeepers gave up valuable time to do this and that both nests were so easily accessible that the removal/ relocation was possible.
