I don't have hundreds of £££ stuffed under the mattress (only if) but I intend to make sure that anything left after relly's and friends have had their pick and received their bequests is dealt with by someone honest like the local hospice who do house clearances. They were asked to clear a house by someone I know and they discovered some valuable items so they contacted them and asked them if they wanted them returned. I'm quite sure that the boss who kept the cash was committing an offence. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Dave Hunt Posted February 27, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 27, 2021 A couple of days absence due to bad backitis but things are looking up, at least partially due to having laid in stocks of Lagavulin and Eccles cakes to sustain the inner man while a certain game of rugby is watched tomorrow. I shall also be checking on stocks of earplugs though, as either cheers of joy or howls of despair from the Muddy Hollow are bound to echo at level ten on the North Hipposhire air in the early evening. Tatty bye people. Have a peaceful and restful night. Dave 8 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium jamie92208 Posted February 27, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 27, 2021 Just looked at the Beeb website, 2 things come to the fore, 1, England seem to have avtually turned up in Cardiff, perhaps the roars from the Hippodrome are slightly mooted. 2. The Luftwaffe scored a sneaky one in Exeter and stopped hundreds of Students partying. Jamie 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
