Off Topic The Goodhand Arms

Totally agree it's something that needs to be sorted out internally.

 

The most frightening thing is that here 1 person killed nearly a hundred people and according to this article there are 106,000 individuals that are members of or identify with extremist elements of Islam. That makes things pretty shocking!!!

£450,000 a year to put crap soaps and re-runs on......

 

Has anyone read Two Caravans by Marina Lewycka?

 

So 84 dead and 50 in very serious condition. So very very sad. I hope they recover, but I can see the deaths hitting 100.

 

Just read about it on Audio Book Bay and am downloading the Audiobook now....cheers Clem!...

 

Sadly I agree . Nobody has talked about this at work today , it's as if it just does not compute

 

Getting loads of Pokemon Go players hanging outside my flat...

 

You're in Ocean Village right? There's some prime Pokemon mooching around down there according to The Echo.

 

Yeah, loads of them. Some people look far too old to be into it. One guy looked about 40.

 

...which of course isn't old at all for anything ..

 

For playing Pokemon it is...

 

If you're above the age of childhood, you're too old for playing games like this.

 

Can't people be tragic and sad at any age? Like St Badger said, anybody that isnt a child is too old to play this....18, 25, 40, don't see the difference really.
Im sure people that are playing this game will give me loads of reasons why its not tragic and sad to chase virtual Pokemon all round the country, but I cant see me joining in. I've never owned any kind if console game either, just never got into gaming of any kind. Angry birds passed me by as did bejewelled and all these other mobile games will probably do the same
Each to their own I know, but Pokemon! Seriously?

 

I have a PS4(games console), that I chill out and play now and again. But no way would I get Pokemon Go. It will end up getting a few people in trouble.

 

Games consoles have their place, although I dont play them, I can see why people do. This Pokemon Go game is just distracting nonsense though and not played in the safety of your home...I'm waiting for the first cases to be reported of people walking into traffic, or being robbed whilst playing just to convince me it really is an actual hazard.

 

Jasper has come home. Thank you for all the kind messages.

He is very very thin, but home.

Will ring the vet in the morning and get him booked in for a checkover asap.

Have a fantastic evening everyone. We will

 

Well maybe. I don't even know what it is

 

Brilliant news. I love a happy ending.

 

Now he is settling down, we can see he has a horrid raw patch under his front right leg. As if he has been struggling to get out. Hopefully the vet will have a slot early tomorrow. Don't want to go down the emergency route, as he has only just come home!
