    Kelly asks:
    Anyone know any places to hire for a baby shower?

    — looking for recommendations.


    The US of A perhaps?

    I have to setup a FB troll account. These are just too good to not be replying to.

    ...we crabbed for two hours and caught around 50 each (I lost the competition). We then went for a late lunch here, drove to Broadstairs for dessert, played the 2p waterfalls in the arcade to win tickets that were exchanged for FNAF figurines, saw a film in the world's nicest cinema ("Wreck it Ralph") and drove home.

    THE END

    I like the way the ending was left deliberately open for the inevitable sequel.

    I have to say, I've never heard a lady call it that before.

    I recommend that she just use the regular shower. Seems a bit much to buy an entirely new shower just because there’s a baby to clean now.

    Certain people bring always age or disability into it. You never hear "my very healthy 25 year old son" or "the 19 year old footballer down the road" having guttering problems.

    What's even more annoying, she doesn't even live in the local area, and always makes posts like this. She used to say her daughter was disabled when asking for freebies, it turned out she had ADHD!

    At least once a week there will be a 'begging' post from her, I know plenty of people have helped her out (including my wife), its a friendly village, and gone to her home, she has a 52 inch TV and chain smokes. I clicked on her profile once, she has just come back from 2 weeks in Tenerife (or Tenna-eeffee as she would say).

    Ha! Those people are the absolute worst. After Harvey wrecked shop here about 18 months ago, there was so much of this going around. Given that our neighborhood was entirely untouched beside a 30 minute period when the water was knee-deep in the street,we felt quite lucky and ready to help others who weren't so fortunate. A girl my wife knew in high school posted that she had lost loads of furniture, kids stuff, food etc during the flood. We offered her a spare bed we had, some other pieces of furniture, and a shopping cart full of food and kids clothes. My wife was sure she lived in a neighborhood that we knew had pretty much been wiped out, so we felt confident that it was legitimate. The kids went to the school my wife teaches at, so she even arranged for other people she worked with to donate food/clothes etc.

    Turned out she'd moved just before the hurricane arrived, and now lived in a second floor apartment. Basically lost all faith in humanity when I discovered that. I'd wonder how she was able to sleep at night, if the bed we gave her wasn't so comfortable.

    I find social media to be very anti social, I go on FB maybe once a week and I generally last about five minutes before I want to start killing people.

    This is always a feature if Angry People in Local Newspapers. Completely irrelevant detail divulged in case it helps induce more sympathy.

    "The 29 year old mother of 2 autistic children with fibromyalgia was left fuming after her birds eye potato waffle was found to contain a wasp"

    The other favourite is any military connection at all "the retired Royal Marine sergeant was left without any hot water for 4 hours whilst maintenance crews tried to repair the main serving his estate"

    My favourite is always when some chavy kid has been sent home from school stupid lines in hair, swearing at a teacher etc and they then appear in the Sun or Mirror the next day in full school uniform with mum insistent little Darren is a misunderstood angel and all he want to do is to go to school and see his friends.

    I'm assuming that your comment was just for comic effect but isn't this a 'knickable' offence?

    Yeah, it's really hilarious when drivers do this to pedestrians.

    What's the latest view on the Tesco store putting all those shopping trolleys in the parking spaces on the right as you drive in. Don't they want us to park there ? I'm thinking of starting a petition. Especially as I have a niece (who lives nowhere near this area) who has a mental illness - that must count for something ?

    My point was why post this in the community group? If it was done purposely then yes, I believe you can be "done" for it. If someone did this to me and I was able to catch up with them I'd have no issues in removing a wing mirror.

    I think the answer to your question is that the soakee has no other avenue to vent their spleen.

    TBF someone having a dump on a settee at the corner of 2 streets is pretty unreasonable.

    Same happens at Waitrose in Richmond.

    More broadly, any thoughts on the current WFC barnets?

    Prodl was my favourite.

    Kabasele the smartest & the whole back division look very trim.

    My instinct is that Nate would benefit from a new style.

    Its got a cracking new Aldi and a bar has just opened which can seat up to twelve people on empty beer barrels. As a vegetarian I sadly miss out on the nice local produce.
