    Do you have any difficulty getting served in a public house. Or buying cutlery from Sainsburys.

    :- D Gary. I am shocked to hear Geoff is entitled to a bus pass, I had him down as 35 tops.

    Becks, I suppose it could have been anything in that baguette, I'm very trusting!

    In all my years teaching I only ever twice had a child in my class with the same birthday as me. There's someone locally, whom I've never met, who uses the same doctor as me; she has the same first and last name as me and the same birthday but is  10 years younger. I always have to give my middle name or address when making an app't so they get the right one.

    'Best before' means what it says - best before. It doesn't mean unsafe after that date. I never look at the dates, just keep them in the bottom of the fridge and consume as and when.

    The more facts you know about someone the more likely you are to find a fact in common. One of the Forkers has the same maiden name as meimage

    I now have crisps.

    Geoff what worries me is that people often use their DOB as a security check is it wise to have it on a bus pass?

    Excuse my ignorance, I don't use a bus.

    But why is is necessary for people to undergo a security check before boarding a bus. Do they look through through all your groceries too. I know bus passengers are not allowed to carry panes of glass, tins of paint, or fish and chips, onto the bus.

    It is the expiry date which is the same date when you become eligible-usually you just bleep in it on a machine-I don't expect the security aspect was considered.

    Becks- I shall take that as a compliment and also the around 35 remarkimage

    I think I can understand why box cutters and marker pens are not allowed on buses too.

  • I agree Gary, I take best before dates as a guideline. Some things are ok well after that date and others aren't - smell is a good indicator!  

    Not sure if its my internet connection being slow today or the site but things seem to be taking a while to load.

    Still very grey here.

    Buses are so much easier-none of that parking faffing-and they run every 10 minutes and best of all- it is free

    Site running ok for me but not for othersimage

    Aftie all , Firing on all cylinders now . Went back to bed for a bit and woke up feeling great !  image

    Muddy fork, I don't think it was a sparrowhawk - managed to get a good look at it when it was swooping near the ground and its tail feathers were different. We have one of them that raids the birds in our garden but could be wrong  image

    Pony Pam image Love the pics, I could do with borrowing them.

    Geoff, something always happens when you take a bus.

    Carry on twitching Kate image  Becks , I fancy scrambled eggs. image
