The Oxford-Cambridge Expressway has been cancelled.
This would have torn up any of the countryside around here that HS2 isn't already.
Any future plans must put the environment at the top of the list.
Happy Days....

Hearing that the research into training dogs to sniff out Covid has been positive - the covid stinking clothing I sent may have helped :)

Our football season is officially starting back on 3rd April, the league have given teams the option to drop out of the remainder of the season without fear of relegation. Our main title rivals who are 6 points behind with 2 games in hand have dropped out ? We were to play them on the first two weeks back as well so it's a massive boost for us. Hopefully I'll report back in a couple of months with a photo of me holding the league trophy ??

Double-edged sword I think. Makes your run-in easier but your title win will have the dreaded asterisk. :LOL:

Our first training session is Weds 31st, then our first game on the Friday 2nd! Even though it's a Sunday league we've got an extra game in then on the bank holiday to avoid a double header. So one training session then straight back into action! Can't wait.

Had a walk with a mate around his course this morning. Just in one area where the green keepers had been doing some clearance I picked up 14 good balls - incl 8 Pro V1's. Could have had a load more but pockets were full. Happy days.

This one is epic.

My bank card got cloned and there were two debits totaling £250 to a gambling site in Malta. Barclays did everything necessary in putting a stop on the card and issuing a new one. When the new one arrived, I went through the process of officially cancelling it and Barclays refunded the £250.

But in the meantime, the same site had issued a £300 credit - some kind of gambling winnings that the scumbag who cloned my card had won but had not changed the account it went to. And according to Barclays, that money is now mine.

So I have made £300 out of my card being cloned - happy days. :ROFLMAO::LOL::D:D:D:D:D

That's amazing! I can imagine that on an updated version of Monopoly... "A cyber criminal clones your card but forgets to collect his winnings - collect £300."

Not sure if my heart should be gladdened that 83 dogs will hopefully be returned to their rightful owners, or randomly irritated that they were stolen in the first place;

On balance I'm gladdened that their standard of treatment should greatly improve in the very near future.
