    Southampton is one of those places @Lizzie27 Unless you're in London then, as the old joke goes, "if you want to go there, don't start from here".

    If Boris invested even half the HS2 cost into reopening Beeching lines, we might get somewhere. As it is, the little he money he said he could spare will now be lost to the convenient corona virus and it'll carry on being quicker to go to London first if you want to get from anywhere in the UK to almost anywhere else in the UK

    My grump for today is the Stag Hunt. Ruined yet another walk. I'm sure they think they own the entire countryside.

    My grump of the day started with a pile of cat poo on top of a clump of hemerocallis and another on a trampled Stipa Gigantea, however, this annoyance paled to insignificance when I  wiped my face on my sleeve before realising there was cat poo on the sleeve.

    If anyone is interested there's a half hour long megamix of Old MacDonald songs on Youtube that toddlers would love to play on loop for hours on end if they were allowed :)  In other news I seem to be developing an odd eye twitch...
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Ooh I must download it to go with the hour long Tom and Gerry cartoons and 2 hour long episodes of Hey Duggie (not).

    That Alexa advert ... I’m glad I don’t live next door to someone who lets their daughter practice football goal shooting in the garden at 4 in the morning, and what is more, turns the outside light on so that she can see better to do it!!!

    I thought it was just me. What about the Barclays advert where the woman turns up to her terraced house, slams the doors and drawers to show she's not living with mum and dad any more, then turns up the hifi to the highest setting with a massive bank of speakers on the wall.
