I bet you anything you like you would not dream of what I'm going to reveal but first, my day. I went along to the normal coffee morning at Paulton church. Eventually there were about 20 of us and among them were a retired Church of England vicar and his wife. I heard him mentioning that he had brought along some books for the book exchange and we started chatting about books that he himself...

Health and Safety (non-thinking lunacy)
So my wife works for AgeUK. This morning she asked why water jugs could not be placed on the tables where the elderly clients sit to remind them to drink water. The answer was a no because they might infect each other as they do not wash their hands often enough Sometimes the clients do not show up at the weekly meetings.

When I heard about it, I prayed for bad weather to keep the numbers down because I hate seeing attempted brainwashing by this ignorant girl who has no...
Petty shop theft – what to do?
You might be aware that shoplifting costs an estimated £335 million to the UK economy. I don't do that much shopping in department stores but I was at Lidl today when a woman right in front of me reached over to the little temptation alley, the area by the till where they offer you all sorts of things you forgot you needed, and put it in her pocket. She had a suspicious smile on her face, more...
