Movies mean something different....

This must just be me...I don't understand this pic, courtesy of Dr Lauren.

Does it mean that if you are actually going to do drugs in the cinema , you can go to the toilets on the next level?

How do Ultra Violet lights be anti drug? 

Being a child of the seventies, the only drug I have any knowledge of is pot.

Anyone who can explain this to me?

Cousin Jane?

Washing Blues

It is not cold enough to have the heating on. 
It is not dry enough to hang washing outside.
It is not warm enough to dry washing inside without the heating.
I am too mean to use the tumble drier.

I have discovered yet another downside to having no sense of smell.
The Hubby pointed out to me that the clothes that have been on the clothes horse for two days were starting to smell funny.

Lucky I don't live alone.

There is a duck race....


I have indeed bought ducks...

Neighbourhood Watch

I love the neighbour who lives behind us.
I have never met him, have no idea what he looks like...but he has a dog called Lucy, and he loves her so much.

He has an incredibly LOUD voice , and a very strong accent..not quite London, not from the North..but I think somewhere close to London.
He swears like a trooper.

He also, to my delight, not only talks to Lucy, but sings songs to her.

There is the "I Love Lucy " song

I love Lucy
Yes I do
Even when she does a poo.

There is the "dinner time " song

Lucy Lucy lucky you
Here is dinner just for you

These lines are sung at least 5 times each, with a variety of variations.

Then there are the long conversations explaining why she has to have a bath, why he is going out, why she is a rubbish guard dog...all very amusing.
I thought he was quite an old guy, but no, he is 45. 
I know this because he told Lucy.

I can't see him because our back fence is quite high. I have no idea what kind of dog Lucy is, but I never hear her bark or whine, I am guessing Labrador.

Our neighbourhood is odd.
There are some very nice detached houses. Some quite nice semi detached (that would be ours) and some yucky semi detached,  all these within the same area.

(For the Saffas, the worst, absolute worst house in the area sells for £235 000)

The streets wind around with no grid system at all. 
I went for a walk, had only travelled about 10 minutes and bloody hell, was in a strange area with actual street urchins.

Urchins....I swear to god.


Health and safety gone mad

Made me laugh....


Scandal/Skande

Due to a severe lack of real crime in our area, headlines in the paper can be fun.
A local vicar caused a storm that raged for weeks....
