Things you'd like to say, but can't

My wife has one of these going on in her class at the moment, and the professionals are starting to think that the mother might have Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy.

I do wonder what has turned the mother that way I do hope she gets the help she clearly needs
I understand why my colleague is like this with her child, her own childhood wasn't great and so she craves attention, I sometimes think she makes up stories, so many times she has been rushed into hospital at deaths door..who knows

Attention and benefits?

[I could track the owner down to say it in person, but she was not about today...]

How lovely! I have seen roadside 'honesty boxes' before for items like flowers, eggs and honey, but this is an honesty box 'on steroids'!

The owner of this shed has turned it into a little hilltop retreat for walkers**. I was up there today with a friend and 2 dogs so we called in for a break. There are facilities to make tea or coffee, slices of cake available, and an assortment of packets of biscuits, flapjack etc. There are also free-range eggs for sale. There are seats inside, but today was lovely so we sat outside in the sunshine. While we were there, another dog walker called in and made herself a cuppa. She said she calls in often.

The views over the Calder Valley are great.



** PS And off-road cyclists!

It is at Old Chamber, a hamlet on the hillside to the south of Hebden Bridge. There are some great walks and off-road bike routes which go past it.

There is a side to my personality that dwells on the very few people who will probably abuse the trust, but most people really appreciate what the owner has done.

I just found this article by a local photographer, also a fan.

I've not looked forward to a good poo this much in ages.

I would say it, but there's no-one around at the moment.

Was it one of those ones that hurt but also need no wiping?

The government has told us to contact our top 10 suppliers and ask them what their Brexit/contingency plans are.

However, one of our top 10 suppliers is the government....

Pass it on when you get the answer

So you think it is grossly unfair? I chuckle every time I think about it. Then when I realise there is nothing you can do about it, I nearly fall off my chair laughing.

I know what you mean about the 'few' abusers of all things nice but, lets hope that they won't bother getting off their lazy arses to go out and discover this little gem. A big well done and thank you to thoroughly nice person who has gone to the trouble of setting it up (and to you ColinJ for spreading the word)

Dear The 1975. You have a stupid name.

You're complaining the pool is closed? I mean a child was sick in the pool....by all means carry on floating around in vomit......

When brexit kicks in, where are you clearing off to? You are in a hurry to get rid of everyone else, personally I would much rather you went and took your arrogance and racism elsewhere,

I appreciate that you don't like waiting half-an-hour for a meeting.
Maybe next time, don't turn up 30 minutes early?
