Derek, did you put a mini metal detector on your xmas list ?Derek27 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 3:09 pmIt's happened again as I was changing my garden lightbulb!!
I got another screw out of my toolbox, put the cover back on, then just as I spotted where the screw landed the old lightbulb rolled off the step ladder. There's some sinister force at work that thinks "shit, Derek's found his screw, let's make him sweep up some broken glass instead"!!

Just been into McDonald's since it's the last day they're open. A Polish bird came up to me and asked me for my name, then my number. 
Unfortunately, we struggled to hear each other over the noise and mouth-coverings and had to stand really close-up. At least McDonald's has got everybody's phone number now so they can contact us all if she's given us Covid-19!

My Christmas Day!
Popped out to empty the bins before cooking my Christmas dinner. Found a young woman in distress and on the phone to the police. Then a guy came running after her and she asked me for help, as this guy just attacked her. The guy buggered off and I invited her and her 3-y-o daughter into my flat and called the police again. Three police officers called round, after a lengthy discussion they decided to nick the guy who lived just around the corner, but only after backup arrived. It took 7 police officers to arrest a man as old as I am!
Spent the rest of the afternoon with this lovely lady [Kaf, I'm not bragging
], but in the meantime, her 3-y-o daughter ran amock in my living room. Completely rearranged it. I had to move every small object of value out of reach, she opened a kitchen draw and helped herself to bags of crisps, dropping most of them on the floor. I had a 6-pack of small orange juice cartons, I gave her a carton of orange juice but she eventually opened all of them, drank a bit of each and spilt the rest on the floor, perhaps to wash away the crisps. I later found my landline phone in the kitchen sink and the contents of my coffee table behind the sofa! A whole hour to clean up afterwards!
Full respect to anyone who's had children - don't know how you managed for 18 years.
