If it was straight forward fraud I’d stand more chance of a recoup than against a bank.

Wish it wasn’t the first time I’d heard it. Didn’t really feel like it was my money anyway cos my Dad gave it to me so I thought I should look after it, hence paying £8.50 for their care. I’m not with your solicitor on this one, no he won’t make a profit but cos it’s personal, the banking ombudsman will be called in early.

Soz to anyone I'm not responding to. Just discovered my pocket money account has been emptied and closed by some scammer. Phoned fraud line. The thieving fucker who closed my account and took my money is.. Barclays Bank. The people I pay £8.50 a month to make sure I'm looked after. They can't explain why they emptied the account or why they've charged me £300 admin for this... so ring this number tomorrow. The advisor sounded like he'd heard it a lot. I'd heard they are capable of above and beyond on the cunty front but this is a surprise!

Hmm the percentage of nutters per generation. That'd be a hard one to research seeing as anyone over 40 is so busy being tough they don't know they're mental

Oh theres no such thing as staying on topic here. When someone finally brings it back you think oh yes I remember now Sounds lovely. I'm off to the French alps next week for a bit of skiing and then back on there on the bike end April beginning May. Well I would be going skiing but I got my ski gear down today and my jackets missing and "no gear n no idea" is definitely worse than "all the gear no idea" Any chance you've got some pics to share from last year? On a new ride section thread of course, just in case Pedro ever wants to enjoy his thread again?

Cheers. I think thats what I'll do.

Friend I’m staying with next week text while I was cooking lunch today to ask if I was a vegetarian or vegan…

Beautiful Was that this years jolly? How did it go?

Oh don’t go turning into an old git just yet Younger people apparently have less sex than older gens but they think that may not be the case and they’re simply more honest They’re sexually less inhibited, more adventurous, more likely to state what they want and more likely to enter into arrangements other than monogamy. So a rethink on that one Rich.

Nice, very nice. -4 would be about a quarter of what I’d want

Good to hear from you Well yes I was unwittingly heading for mintageddon so thanks for the warning! I had heard they spread like weeds but thought if that was the case everyone’s garden would smell of mint I guess the pot is just to stop the roots spreading? If so could you bury said pot? Or would the roots eventually go out of the drainage holes and wreak havoc anyway? Still enjoying your Africa Twin?

Yer I also thought heated grips and a bigger service - bargain!

His friends are mostly lovely and polite but @Pedro we are British and you know how Jekyll and Hyde some of that breed can be after a few drops

I’ve considered it but I don’t fancy then having to climb out of a window to get out

They look strong for such a short time in, fingers crossed.

Bedroom door locks aren’t a thing here. Hotels and grand old country piles are the only places you’re likely to find locking bedroom doors.

It’s not them I’m concerned about, they can piss in their own beds.

Every time we (the UK) germinate plant seeds it seems to involve some type of top like a clear carton lid or bit of clingfilm, it’s a mini poly tunnel effect. I don’t know why, I think it’s supposed to help control temperature fluctuations and promote growth

nope. Traditionally at young peeps parties some will disappear off to find a room and let’s just say they are normally too busy to care who’s bed it is.

So am I. Surely now it’s clingfilm time?

Got wind one of my sons might be having a few people down while we’re away next week. Not best pleased as I’ve just bought a new mattress for my room and you know what inebriated young folk are like. Going to pick up a waterproof mattress protector tomorrow

Cheers Pete, good to know.

Sounds like the amount of time n money on printing plastic would make it cheap

I'd rather walk than get on a bus, full of smelly people who don't know how to put their hand up when they cough.
