This word removed of a winter has lasted about four years now, f***ing sick of it. Strangely enough, this was our biggest snowstorm all winter/early spring, and only our second snowstorm that amounted to more than a couple of inches. The high temp on Monday is forecast to be 60F, so here comes the flooding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contestant (confidently): "Oh, I think I know this one - 'The Five Seasons'" How Armstrong kept a straight face I do not know. A young waitress at a restaurant I worked at asked the manager for some vacation time. She said she needed the 31st through the 35th off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want anything TOO serious though. Competitive, but I don't want to be shouted at every week Anyway found Sutton Town vets team. Perfect, right round the corner! Looked them up, they're top of the Premier Division and their top scorers are Darren Byefield and Lee Hendrie Not sure that's quite my level! Mate, the Vets leagues are tougher than the usual leagues, believe me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted April 5 Moderator Share Posted April 5 Just found a frog in our courtyard (for reference it’s at basement level and is surrounded by at least 10ft walls on every side) It obviously needed to be caught and released into safety elsewhere as I doubt the common frog has fire escape climbing abilities. I deal with swiftly and release it into the back gardens of the flats. The missus doesn’t believe me when I said I did touch it (she thinks it’s poisonous and will get in my veins) The missus is also convinced it came from the drains (yes she googled it ), me I think it fell in Shes now petrified that monster frogs are going to invade the flat through the toilets Here's the little thing anyway…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 We’ve got a couple of frogs living in our pond , they are kinda tame now so I go out there and they will come over to me for a tickle … I quite often pick them up and take them for a walk around the garden ( ie scare Mrs H with them if she is out there ) toads on the other hand , big ugly bastards , I found one of them in the pond once , he got pinged over the fence into the neighbours garden 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted April 5 VT Supporter Share Posted April 5 (edited) When we had both a pond and a cat (both sadly now gone), rescuing frogs was a daily job for me. The cat used to bring them into the house. She never killed them, she just liked to watch them hopping around the kitchen, until she got bored and wandered off elsewhere. At which point I would take them back to the pond. Edited April 5 by mjmooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a case of life imitating art or maybe there was no art and he is just an obnoxious being. I hope Wilson takes him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
