I've had one of the worst days of my life. My past has come back to bite me in the worst possible way. Sometimes you have to seriously question your purpose in life and ask yourself if you are more of a hindrance than positive. It's a serious question that I'm going to get to the bottom of tonight. Difficult decisions sometimes have to be made.

Good luck with your plight :emoticon-0148-yes:

I really have to get a clip of this.

Yesterday morning when I was having breakfast their was a magpie & a squirrel in the same tree who appeared to be fighting. Then I started thinking they were actually playing but shrugged it off. When I went to have a closer look all the birds, on the feeding tree, flew off and the magpie scarpered.

I decided I'd been imagining things but they're here again this morning, chasing each other around the tree and making a right game of it. There are a lot of young birds & animals at the moment, fox cubs etc, who are play fighting but I've never seen a mammal and a bird doing stuff like this. I've seen baby squirrels having 'mad half hours' bouncing on branches and stuff but never anything like this.

The magpies always scatter if I go to the patio windows but I'm determined to get a clip, if I do I'll stick it on here.

Has anyone else seen anything like this without the aid of drink or drugs?
 
Off to Kent straight from work tonight for the weekend to see Brian Adams tomorrow night.

Just got to work and realised I've forgotten my wallet.

The weekend's on her :emoticon-0136-giggl

Thanks lads.

It's just a complete mess.

Did anybody see that bloke playing for the South African womens football team at the Olympics? Suspicions were already being raised and questions were being asked on social media as it looked suspiciously like a boy. When the other team got a free kick, all of the women in the wall had their hands down by their sides, but he put his hands straight down to protect his package and the game was up. Dozy **** <laugh>

Bombs in Thailand, that's where you are Com innit?
My eldest daughters and her friend are going on Sunday. Travel agent say it's safe to go despite the fact that two bombs have gone off near their hotel in Phuket. Foreign office won't tell me anything other than look at their website, which is out of date.

I'm past myself even before she's gone.

They have targeted them on a special day out there, not sure what the Thais were celebrating though.

It seems like this would have took a long time and a lot of planning to put together. Giving the circumstances, it is probably now the best time to get there as I wouldn't expect anything now for a while, as daft as that might sound.

Your daughter could be going to anywhere in Europe or the USA and you would be right to also have concerns about them places. Nowhere can be classed as safe these days, but I'm sure she will be fine. Just advise her to keep away from government buildings, police stations etc..

Not like a government dept website to be out of date is it?
