King's Day in the Netherlands. It's his birthday, everyone is in orange, party etc. Never been a big fan but at least got a day off for it when it's a week or working day. But the Netherlands does not do compensation, so no Monday or Friday off.

These so-called royals can stick it as far as I'm concerned. Inbreds.

Ok success is now mine... a squirrel baffle from Amazon has done the trick.. we bought a very tall bird feeder which is now located in a location with  no nearby jump off bits for the little bastards to have a go... loads of birds at the feeders and all the squirrel gets are the crumbs..when he puts in an appearance

Supermarkets regularly changing their store layouts to coax a few measly extra quid out of our pockets. Makes life difficult for the elderly, disabled and visually impaired. Governments should be able to regulate this type of behaviour but they never will as more profits mean more taxes. Plus, staff are already overworked and must hate the process of carrying it out and then dealing with the inevitable customer direction probably on a minimum wage 20 hour contract.

Ouch, best of luck!

Got a bit complicated as the roots were difficult to pull and another stronger operative had to be called, got through it but now eating crisps will have to wait a week or so.

Jeremy Vine. On his show they've replayed the footage about a dozen times of yesterday's machete-wielding nutter being tasered.  Rightly, great praise is being given to the female police officer who deployed her taser while walking head on straight toward the perpetrator; what is being bizarrely overlooked is the other taser clearly activated from the side beforehand by a different officer just out of shot.

But this is typical of Vine being ineptly behind the curve on pretty much everything.

He's also a cycle fascist, trying to blame motorists at the first opportunity even when he is in the wrong. Knobhead

Trouble is, he's quite often right on the cycling.

Inadvertently kicking a door and breaking off a corner of my right big toenail. That's probably put paid to mu going out cycling and annoying motorists today  >:(

Both can be in the wrong at the same time (e.g. a recent incident involving a taxi doing the rounds); never known him to admit any culpability though.

I haven't seen one of his "wrong" cycling posts so far and I do follow him on Twitter. Will keep an eye out for one of those.
